A STRAIGHT TIP.n

The Terrible Result Of Betting, Espe-
ciaIIy on . Dead Sure Thing.
"Talk about your sure things on horse
races" said the veteran, 'have | ever
told you about how was tripped up on
the most beautiful straight tip you have
ever heard OFF,
None of the party had ever heard the
story, so the major told it.
while we were in camp with Nc
Clellan," he began, 1--WE had some good
horses which were worked just about
hard enough to keep them in fine condi-
ton. Several of them were pretty good
steeplechasers, too, but Colonel Blank
had a sorrel mare which could outrun
anything in the Army of the Potomac.
Well, one day lot of recruits came into
camp. They were well supplied with
tobacco and other little luxuries which
help to make soldiers life bearable.
''Some of the boys who had been in
camp quite long time looked enviously
on the well filed canteens and haver-
sacks of the newcomers, and it was, per-
haps, natural that they should begin to
scheme to try to secure some OF the lux
uries for themselves.
1.-THE idea struck some one to get up a
hippodrome horse race. The scheme
was of course to have Colonel Blanks
mare run against some of the poorer ami
mails. And to have those who were in
on the deal to bet against the sorrel
mare. The rider of the mare, Of course,
would be a party to the deal and he
would prevent the sorrel from winning
the race.
"Well, the details were all arranged
and the plans were working nicely. The
newcomers had heard all about the fame
of the sorrel mare and they took the
bait like charm. All kinds Of articles
were wagered-tobacco, whisky, coats,
boots, and not small amount of money
on the result. We who had put up the
Job were laughing in our sleeves for
three days before She race took place.
"On the day designated the mile
course, which had been laid out on a
fairly good road, was lined with blue
coats from one end to the other. When
the horses took their places visions of the
Injuries which have named doomed up
in our imaginations and we exchanged
sly winks as the horses came down past
the starter. AS soon as the starter yelled
'Gor the men in the two long lines began
to yell and swing their hats in the air.
''The space between these two lines
was not more than fifteen or twenty feet
wide and this unusual sight and noise
frightened the sorrel mare. Well, she
just took the bit between her teeth and
the way she did skip down that road
was caution. The faster she ran the
more the men yelled and the rider could
no more check her speed than he could
stop cyclone. At the end of the mile
the sorrel led her opponent by fully 300
yards, and not satisfied with this she
ran nearly another mile before her rider
could stop her. New York Tribune.

Sanitation at Cheap Restaurants.

SANITATION at Oneap fSeStaurants.
The frequenters of some of the cheap
restaurants of our large towns would
probably suffer from painful falling off
in the appetite were they first to pay Il
visit to the kitchens from which their
savory morsels come. In the interests Of
their hunger they doubtless show sound
discretion in taking the goods the gods
of the gridiron send them without ques-
tioning or demur On the other hand,
In the interest of sanitation and public
welfare, it is quite as important that the
cleanliness of our restaurant kitchens
should be beyond suspicion as that of
our baking establishments.
The local authorities are empowered
by the sanitary acts to deal with any
work place which is not kept in clearly
state, or not properly ventilated, etc., so
as to be injurious or dangerous to health.
1t would be interesting to know what
attention the local authorities have
shown to these establishments.-Hospi-
tai,

One of the largest establishments In this

To overcome the serious results that are
experienced upon coming from protr&cted
labor under compressed air a waiting
chamber, where one can rest and have the
change of pressure take place gradually,
has been used of late, and il has been
found that some diseases incident to such
work are prevented and some cases cured.
