horsefesh III the Upper Peninsula have
been trying to arrange trotting circuit
taking in the larger cities from Ashland
to the 500. The Driving Park Associa-
tion of the 500 is making great start
this year and will offer s5, 500 in purses
for races which will occur on July 2S,
20, 30 and 31st. This is the largest
amount "hung up" by any association
in the state outside of Detroit. The
dates for the races follow close on to
the close of the Detroit, Minneapolis,
Milwaukee. West Superior and other
large meetings, and the secretary is
assured that there will be large
number OF eutries for oil tho events.
A grand stand, and stables for one
hundred horses are being erected and
everything placed in readiness for The
greatest meeting ever held in the Upper
Peninsula. On the success of this
meeting will depend, in large measure,
the formation of an U. p. circuit

The citizens of Grand Forks, N.
Dak., have grown tired of the delay in
putting on the market the pine timber
in the Red Lake region, estimated at
about 5000, 600, 900 feet. and are trying
to stir up the government in the mat
ter. A law was passed by congress
about three years ago, providing for its
sale and-the opening mp OF the agricul-
tural lands in the same region. Tie
Grand Forks agitators claim that the
timber supply now accessible to the
mill men of that place will be about
exhausted in another year, and that
speed is demanded in making the Red
Lake pine available. A meeting was
lately held at Grand Forks, at which o
preamble and resolutions were adopted
setting forth that an immense tract Of
prairie country, including northwestern
Minnesota and North Dakota, is depea-
dent upon the pine lands of northern
Minnesota for its supply; that the re-
gion is rapidly developing; that the
mills have nearly exhausted their sup
ply, and that the shutting down Of
mills would work great hardship to the
settlers: that surveys OF land and sale
of timber have been authorized to lie
placed on the market should be made
available the present year.--North-
western Lumberman.

A Finlander by the name OF Hall was
brntally murdered by John Granberg
at Cedar River, on the morning OF the
9th OF July. Matt Ekhan was also inn
plicated in the killing and is now in
jail with the murderer. The murder
was the outcome of q drunken row, and
the fatal blow was struck with a piece
of iron.
Malcolm Mcdonald, the carpenter
from Bay Mills whose body was found
in the caual at the 500 is now believed
to have been foully dealt with and
murdered with the object of robbery.
1t was brought out at the inquest that
Mcdonald was known to have on his
person considerable sum Of money
and other valuables. These have dis
appeared. A deep cut in the back Of
the head furnishes strong support of
the theory that foul and atrocious
crime has been committed.

Color of Eyes In Men aud Women.

NJ. de Candolie, French investigator,
has come to the conclusion from his re.
searches that women have larger proper
ton of brown eyes than men. He also finds
that where both parents have eyes Of a like
color the chances are eighty-eight to
twelve that their children, when they ar
rive at the age of ten (when the color of
the eyes is 6xed), will have eyes of the
same color. When the parents have eyes
of different colors the chances are fifty
five to forty-f in favor of brown as
against blue or gray eyes in the children.
He is also of the opinion that the health
of the brunette type is, as rule, su
perior to that of the blonde. st. L0ui

The Worlds Biggest Spring.

The greatest spring in the world is
here, says letter from Mammoth City,
Ark. The greatest volume of water
gushing spontaneously from the earth
gushes here. Ninety thousand gallons
of water every minute come from some
where away down under the very roots
of the Ozark Mountains and burst clear
and sparkling into tue golden sunlight.
One hundred and twenty nine million,
six hundred thousand gallons every day
The spring IS at the base of an immense
hill. The water comes up so rapidly
that it forms lake about the orifce "a
lake OF blueness that rivals n summer
sky; lake that is warm in winter aud
cool in summer. The big hill forms
high, dry beach for this strange body of
water, which is restrained on the other
side by gentle slope. The hill is COW
cred with trees and great boulders, some
of which jut out several feet into the
water. A company has erected mod
ern dam of immense proportions at the
lower end of the valley, over which the
clear, blue water breaks and falls into a
snow white foam on the rocks below.
At this dam, Spring River begins. 1t is
a river whose source is almost as great as
its mouth. 1t is one of the most beau
tiful streams in this country. The water
runs along a rocky bed that preserves in
a great measure its pristine purity, and
on each side for miles the ruggedest,
| knn,,k,F,,l nf nyarL- horns q
the narrow river.
No one ever has explained satisiac
torily the origin Of the spring. The
volume OF water is so great and so I'M
varying year after after year that the
source is admittedly some great stream.
The only river OF consequence north or
northeast of this place is the Current
River, fifty or sixty miles away. The
Current River gets very low at seasons,
90 that any idea that the spring gets its
supply from the stream is preposterous.
The most plausible theory is that the
water comes from the Mississippi, 2OC
miles northeast. The river bends dis
tinctly westward at a point near St
Genevieve, Mo, and the course OF the
land from that point to this one is down
ward. There can be no doubt that tn,
spring is the outlet of an underground
river. It may come from the Missouri
or even from point in the Mississippi
further north than stated, but it is sur
that this great subterranean stream ha
for its supply some body of water tina
retains large volume the year around
Records of the stage OF water here hav
{ been kept for nearly ten years, and in al
, Of that time the output has not varie,
, 100 gallons day or the temperatur

= summer the spring remains at fifty-nin

with reasonable care the state may be

of the too numerous ones enacted
there by executing Isaac SawtclI in
