As is usual on the Fourth of July, the
fire department was kept in active mo-
ton from break of day until after mid

were of any particular consequence,
the fremen worked like slaves all day.
The first alarm came in from Western
and Newton avenues north at 600.

they followed at intervals of about an
hour. there being up to midnight eight

resides at 325 Fifth street south. had
his right hand seriously injured through
carelessness in handling a dynamite
frecracker. He was standing in front

BIG ENTRY LIST.
For the Minnehaha Races 142
Horses Have Been Entered.

fOr the "Inne0dHd hdCcS 1t@
Horses Have Been Entered.
The Minnehaha Driving Park associa-
ton promises to give the people of Min
neapolis better trOtting than has ever
been seen In the Northwest. The meet
ing will begin next Tuesday and con-
tinue four days. There will be three
races each day. The fields are all large
and made up of good horses. The entry
list numbers 142 horses, the largest
ever secured in Minneapolis. Last
year the entries numbered only
a little over sixty. The horses
are, too, of a higher grade than have
heretofore competed here. The track
at MInnehaha. one of the fastest in the
country, was never in better shape.
This should make the racing interest
ing. Besides the regular tTotting pro-
gramme, attractive features, specialtles,
will be introduced every day. Trans
portation to the grounds is easy now.
The electric cars will start from Wash
ingtOn and Hennepin avenues every
five minutes, running to the gate of the
park. The Milwaukee road will put on
special trains and carry race-goers the
round trip for 20 cents. People living
outside Minneapolis can get reduced
rates of fare on all roads. Trains from
ST. Paul will be switched off at short
line junction, South Minneapolis, ana
run direct to the park.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

Loren Fletcher should be ashamed of
himself. What trouble, what deep IN
rest ne has communicated to the soul of
that genial story teller and loyal base
ball ''rooter" Judge John P. Real It's
a shame, that's what it is, Judge
Rea has been industriously lay
ing pipe for two. or three
years now, laying enough of it TO for
ever accommodate the underground
wires. Now, Loren Fletcher, with his
beard and his this-is-no-bluff-for what-
I-say-goes tout ensemble, comes along
and says Judge Rea must unearth that
pipe or lose it. Judge Rea wants to go
to congress. He has been counting on
it good deal. Didn't he get
up and declare that "our rights must
not be trampled upon" in the census
war? Didn't he resign judgeship so
that he might become entangled IN no
political fights year ago? Didn't he
90 down to the Afro-American banquet,
sit in draught, catch a severe cold and
lose three or four hours sleep without
getting a chance, even then to fire of his
speech? Hasn't he been willing and
more than willing to make a speech
whenever two or three were gathered
together in anybody's name. OF course
he has, and his reward for it all is to
have Loren Fletcher amble in and claim
everything. Will the time ever come
when a gentle. genial. kindly. accom-
modaIing spirit will be rewarded.
George L. Hit is getting more motor
iety out of his dog Sport than Frank
Daniels, of Rag Baby" fame, ever
achieved. Since twas announced some
time ago that Hits dog, or what re-
manned of his dog. had again disap-
peared, he has received an average CT
seven letters per day on the
subject of dog. These letters
come from every place except
"Greenland's icy mountains and lndias

from these localities. They are full of
kind, sympathetic, homemade advice

ness blocks. should he want to use them
for kennels. 1t has been suggested that
he rent the base ball park for that pur
pose. New York parties have advised
him to bring Sport down there, and
hitch him to the statue of Liberty.
The worlds fair commission offers 10

Christian scientists have recommended
a course of lectures. The Business Mems

and offers are received by Mr.. Hit in
the proper spirit. He promises TO take
everybody's advice when the dog comes
back.

MONEY FOR DEFENSE.
Alleged Train Wreckers Well
Supplied With Cash.

DIES MONIES, July 4.-More than To-
cal interest is centering around the
trial of the two Italians charged with
wrecking the train at the Rapids, which
resulted in loss of life. From some
mysterious place they have received
large sums of money to enable them to
conduct their defense. 1t is thought
the money comes from secret organi-
cation of Italians-it not the Malta, a So
ciety similar to it. There is strong
feeling against the men, and their ac-
auittal is hardly possible, as the rail-
road company seems to have absolute
and convincing proof on their side of
the case.

AT THE CIRCUS.
Over Forty Thousand People Saw
the Gigantic Tented Show.


the Gigantic Tented Show.
Everybody went to the circus yester-
day. VINO could stay away? When
the gaily-caparisoned horses, the ele-
plants, the camels, the lions, the clown
and the calliope passed along, the heart
of every man was so fred with youth
full recollections that he couldn't keep
away. The memory of carrying water
TO the elephant or stealing lead pipe and
selling il TO the Junk man was too strong
for him. That was why fully 10000 JOY
Gus. cheerful-lOOking men, women and
children flOated under the big tent at
Grant street and Vine place yesterday.
The show began al 9 in the morning.
The monster canvas covered a big
crowd then. In the afternoon there
was scarcely breathing space there. In
the evening the people stood under the
feet Of the racers il the hippodrOme.
The show was good, from the street
parade down to the post performance
concert and the side show. All circuses
are much alike. FoTepaugh's, under
the proprietOrship Of James L. Cooper,
is up to the standard set by old Adam
Forepaugh-to the top notch. All the
old features of the Forepaugh show, the
high class arenic. acrObatic, gymnaStic
and aerial exhibitions and the men
agerIe, including Adam Forepaugh's
herd of trained elephants, are retained.
New features have been added. Among
them are the leap of Zayel from
the top of the tent TO a
life-saving net while in ordinary street
costume; the cage of lions in the big
tent, among all the people, and the
tricks OF their kingships; the exhibition
of life on the Western plains, introduce
ing the spectacle of a horse-thief
dragged along the ground by horses
running at full speed. winding up with
hanging: the Hanlon-N VOTERS in aerial
performances. These last mentioned
gentlemen are wonders on the flying
trapeze, unapproached in their line.
The whole show was voted a success. Il
is big in size OF outfit, biz IN length Of
programme, and big in excellence of the
performers. In ST. Paul the show will
be located out on Seventh street

TEXAS INDUSTRIALISTS.
During Recess Third Party Men
Fly High.

SULPHUR SPRINGS, lex. July 4.-The
first days session Of the Federation of
Labor was consumed by routine bust
ness. President Golden. in bis annual
address, maintained that the convention
represented a constituency having a
majority of the voting power of the
state of Kansas. Nothing during the
regular sessions suggested a political
movement except the speech OF W. E.
Farmer during recess, which was a
Peoples party effort Of the most pro-
nounced kind. The speeches of II. A.
Spencer and others tonight were very
strong against both OF the old parties,
and every point made was literally APP
plauded.

The Cat and the Fox were taking So
cial stroll together in the forest one day,
discussing the traffic in domestic furs,
the probability Of financial panic as
predicted by George Francis Train, a
possible social uprising, ETC., when the
Fox said: ssIet whatever may happen
am all right. I've got 900 foxy tricks
ready for any emergency"
The Cat pulled out a whisker, medita-
lively picking her teeth with it; then,
after a paws, she remarked: 'sWell,
they would get me sure, for I have only
one trick TO rely upon for safety should
they get after me-
ssSorry for you. said the Fox; II would
really like to teach you one or two Of

felt her hand violently jerked upwards,

ground.
