those who play with 1t. 1t does not even

proof of the existence of vein of superst-

made by this wonderful talking machine, lead

witch craft is distant in years rather than in
fact; if Ouija will kindly answer several

LIVELY RACES IN PROSPECT.
Much Interest Being Manifested In
Far Sporting Events.

The race track at the fair grounds is in
fine condition and the grounds have been
cleaned up ready for the fair. A number
of horses are already on the ground and
tomorrow between twenty and thirty will
arrive from Denver. Some of them are
said to be derby winners and have taken
part in the races at Minneapolis and other
large cities this summer. The horses on
the ground belonging to the Royal Horse
Association are: Adam. the hurdle horse,
Limerick, the horse that won the Wyo-
ming cup year before last. Post Office, a
roadster and one other. The horses be-
longing to Mr.. Whithouse arrived yester-
day. They are: The Rake. Master
Kildare and Joker. Rowdy Dick and
Rambler belong to Mr.. Logan and some
of them will be started in every race they
can get into Mr.. Logan says. A. d.
Kelley's horses on the ground are Racket,
Nellie Ivan and his 2-year-old bay colt. T.
W. Brookes' trotting horse Ogalalla,
Lady Grey, Chiquita, Canon and De-
ronds were all on tho ground. Solid Sill
yer. Lizzie and Jack Pot are on the
ground. They belong to Percy Hoyt.
Richardson Bros. will run Blue Jay and
Charley.
Last year Lady Gay aud The Rake tied
in a splendid race, and when it was run
off LADY Gay won only by about half a
length. There was much interest iu the
two colts. and those who witnessed their
performances last year will be glad to see
them get together again. Now hat De-
ronda is lame it will keep the betters
guessing to name the winners of the Chey-
enne cup and the Wyoming cup. Linn
erick won the Wyoming cup year before
last, and last year was next to Deronda
in the races for both cups,
DARK HORSE.
A man named Dorothy came in yester-
day morning with a clean limbed sorrel
horse he calls Sorrel Bill. Dorothy.
whose home is in Sturgis, s. D., says he
has been down in Colorado and thought
he would drop in here for the fair. He
has not said 10 which races he will enter
his horse, and no one knows whether his
horse is a mile or q quarter horse. He Is
his own Jockey and rides his own horse.
Some one at the grounds yesterday
thought the horse might be Chico Bill, a
famous Black Hills quarter horse, If it
is Chico Bill, when put on the track he
will introduce himself by jumping the
fence and running all the people off the
grounds. Dorothy is a runner himssli
and won the single man race here on the
4th OF July, 1877.
There will be an exhibit of vegetables

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Mrs. Mary Sci
gel. Of Bronxville, L. l.. came to New
York today to do SOME shopping. She
was walking along Sheriff street, neu
PITT, when her pocketbook containing
SO 25 was wrenched from her hand and
she herself was set ~sprauling in the street
BY a push from a very vigorous arm. She
got up in a hurry, saw a man running up
the street, screamed, and started after
him. A big crowd Joined the chase,
headed by Detectives Mccormick and
Bremen, of the Union Market station.
The thief turned into Delaney street and
lodged down Pitt street and into l26,
with Bremen right at his heels. Through
the hall into the back yard the two men
ran, with the excited crowd painting be
hind and yelling like mad. The thief
scaled one fence after another until he
reached 1870. He slipped into the back
door there. ran up stairs and climbed
through the s,uttle to the roof. Detect
i've Mccormick had staid in the street to
catch him il he came out of any OF the
houses. He saw the man come to
the edRe of the roof of 100 and look over
the surging crowd below, which now al.
most filled the street. Brennen was com
ing up the ladder through the scutte. 1t
was a three story house aud the hard
pavement was below. With a loud oath
the hunted man made a rush and Ieaped
the forty feet to the street. He landed IN
a heap not twelve feet from where Nc
Cormick stood, but before the astonished
detective quite comprehended what had
happened the man was on his feet flying
up the street. Again the chase began,
detectives, men, women and children all
after him, and yelling loud enough to be
heard a dozen blocks. Finally, when the
man reached Houston street, he sank to
the ground exhausted. The detective.
took him to the station house handcuffed.
The stolen purse was still In his possession
and he also had a skeleton key in his
pocket. He said he was John Ryan, is
years old, of Wooster street. He is also
known under the name of Harris. Al
Essex Market court in the afternoon he
was remanded for examination.
