SPORTING SPLINTERS.

Pedestrians Richmond and German, who
have been in training for sometime past for
the twenty -seven-hour walking match,
which commences at the State street pa
vilion at o'clc OK tomorrow night, are in
excellent condition, and the contest prom
ises to be an exciting one. Richmond, who
is the short distance champion, gives Cor
man ten miles start, and the latter is con-
fdsnt that he can win with this advantage.
Within the next few weeks it is likely
that some twenty five young business men
who have grown weary of waiting for a
gymnasium to be established here, will
meet, rent good room, equip it with a
bag, gloves, bells, clubs and bar, and pro-
vide themselves with the means of obtain
ing healthful and much needed exercise by
small monthly assessment.
Dan O'Leary is expected here in few
days.
The stables and track at the driving park
are being put in first class condition for the

Busting Salt Lake,

The editor of this paper has been rusti-
eating in the City of the Saints for ten
days past and returns deeply impressed
with his experiences. He expected to see
an ordinary lively country city; he beheld
a great thriving, busting metropolis. in
which the hurry, commotion, tumult, in
ce5sant unrest and constant rushing of the
multitude hither and thither, made his head
swim, and wonder whether he existed in
real or imaginary surroundings 1t is the
most beautifully located and laid out city
in all the great west, and the country sur
rounding it is garden-spot for grandeur
of extent, sublimity of landscape, and con-
ditions of soil, water and atmosphere,
which, taken altogether, make up as com
plete paradise as can be found on the face
of the earth.-BeIJeUue Herald

Yanor Poison and Its Anttdota.

The morning and evening mists that per-
wade the atmosphere of malarios localities
cannot be breathed with impunity. A, safe
guard is needed to render harmless the
dangerous miasmata with which they are
impregnated The surest, safest defense
is Hostetter's Stomach sBitters. 1t is an
sntidote to the poison which has already
been inhaled and borne fruit, an adequate
preventive of it's harmful effects. No pre-
parative for breathers of miasma tainted
air or drinkers Of malaria poisoned water
like the bitters. 1t completely neutralizes
the otherwise Irresistible onset of the
aerial foe. Settlers on newly cleared land,
excavators of canal routes NOTABLY that on
the Isthmus Of Panama), western pioneers
and emigrants-in short, all subjected to
malarial influences in air or water find in
it benign remedy, an effectual safeguard.
Disorders Of the stomach, liver and bowels,
''la grippe" rheumatism and kidney COM
plants are remedied by the bitters.

dinAl principles Of party as elucidated by the
national convention of 1888. the platform
heartily endorses the administration of Pres

and then resumed his place in a carriage,
which, with other vehicles took their places
in line.
massive and lofty pillar which will tell gen.
eratiOns yet unborn of the patriotism of the
Green Mountain boys of III.
Hon. Nheelock q. Veazey, eX-comrnander-
in-chief of the q. A. R., addressed the vast
concourse, saying:
1--WE stand Mt the point where Stark had
brought volunteers from New Ham pBhire,
Massachusetts, and Vermont in August, III,
to defend military stores hero collected and
operate IN his discretion u the flank of
the hostile army which, IN its southwark
movement, invaded the western borders of
the territory of Vermont. Measured by con-
sequences and verdict of history, it was a
battle of unsurpassed importance. 1t IL this
fact that accounts for the erection of this
massive structure and ths presence of the
president and cabinet, OF governors and
statesmen"
Ex-Governor Prescott, of New Hampshire,
president of the Bennington Battle Menu
ment association, transferred the monument,

a MartInIque HurrIoane.

PAR1s. August PA dispatch received
here confirms the report that all the vessels
at Martinique we're lost during the terrible
hurricane there. Martinique is in such a
position that il is liable to receive the full
force of the dreadful gales that prevail in
these ATTITUDES during the hurricane season.
Official a6Ylces received here announced
that the calamity which visited Martiniqne Is
the most severe since the year 1917. This
disaster is said to equal the famous cyclone
which swept over the island of Antigua in
1871
So far as can be learned there have been
about sixty deaths as the result OF the hurri-
At Fort DeFrance there have been twelve
lives lost, and in both Fort DeFrance ana st.
Pierre, to say nothing OF the country dis
tricts, there have been large numbers of
people injured.
At St. Pierre FIVE persons are known to
have been killed, but 1t Is feared that this
number does not represent the entire list IN
Communication with different parts of the
island was never an easy matter, and it is
excessively difficult to get any detailed news
at present.
As reports from various sectious reach st.
Pierre, it becomes evident that the extent OF
the hurricanes devastation has not been
much exaggerated. Destruction of property
and loss of life Is reported from all parts of
the coast. The latest reports received at st.
Pierre from La MARITIME, shows that the hur-
ricane counts ten victims IN that place Alone
in addition to large mum Der OF injured. At
Francois there have been sixteen people
killed and large number injured and at
Riviere Photo there has been two or more
deaths; and so on from all parts OF the Is
land comes the tale of woe and desolation-
The damage to shipping and property may
be safely elassed as stupendous- About two
6fths of the island was under cultivation and
the mountain slopes covered with forests; all
cultivation and forests in the path of the
hurricane appear to have been swept away.

Rain Making a Success.

MIDLAND, Tex, August 22.-General Dy-
renforth and party have again achieved sue
cess IN their efforts to produce rainfall by
artificial means.
This is the second heavy rain on Morris
ranch, which has fallen INSIDE of eight days.
and there seems to be no reasonable doubt
but that the rain makers deserve much credit
especially for the copiousness of the fall,
Readings of instruments which Prof. Cur
It's; Of Smithsonian institute, brought from
Washington, show clearly that the operations
have had marked effect on the meteorological
conditions and have produced definite and
practical results.
Tho conclusions in the atmosphere were
produced by large number of balloons,
each containing 900 cubic feet of oXyhydrO-
gen. The Oxyhydrogen was made after the
usual methods of chemistry; but in order 10
get it IN sufficient quantities General Dyren-
forth had to design some sort of rough appa-
ratus, which worked fairly well. The mix
ture of oxygen and hydrogen, which forms
the strongest explosive, is one part Of oxygen
and two of hydrogen. This was the relative
quantity employed, though an exact meas
uremSnt was not maze. An ordinary cable
reel served as the medium for sending the
balloons up into mldair. and keeping the
connection with the earth. while a small
dynamo or barrograph transmitted the cleo
trio spark along the cable and caused the eX-
plosion. There was about 1,SOO feet of the
cable reel. A strong wind kept the first bal
loon. which was the size of an ordinary hogs
head, pretty near the earth; but ultimately 1t
rose about 500 feet:
General Dyrenforth briefly explained the
basis of the experiments to the assembled
scientists and newspaper men. MY theory
is that the air holds moisture in suspension
much as a sponge holds water. That bal
loon is saturated sponge of 100 cubic feet.
Strike sponge against a wall and the Ylo-
lent impact knocks the water out of it. With
enough balloons up there filled with oxyhy-
drOgen We believe the explosion Would knock
the water out Of the atmosphere and rainfall
be the result
A large number of the balloons were sent
uD. When the electric current was touched
of there was flash in the sky, torch-like
light, lasting appreciably longer than light
nIng flash, the defamation echoed through
the hills for miles around. and what had been
a muslin fabric balloon came floating down
to the earth in strips so small that none of
them would have tied up powder burned
finger. The fofee of the eoncussi0h was
variously estimated as an equal to half a
dozen discharges of artillery. 1t was by all
odds forcible enough to demonstrate the
strength of oxyhydIogen as an explosive.
The rainfall that followed the explosions
after about tWenty-four hours, seems I'M
qHestionably to have been caused by them,
as rain at this time of the year in this part of
Texas is almost a phenomenon.

MOUNT MCGREGoR. August 22.-UpOn ar
irving at Mount McGregor station. the pres
ident was met by Mrs. w. ]. Arkell, to whom
he offered his arm, and the two advanced to
the piazza and up the steps of the Grant cot
tage.
In honor of the presidents arrival. Mrs.
Arkeli had arranged for pleasant birthday
dinner at the hotel About 40 guests partIc=

were President Harrison, b. Gillian and Gen
eral John Palmer, commander of the Grand
Army of the Republic. AT the other tables
were Russell Harrison and members of the
presidents party.
Senator Arkell arose and said: "The
president. on account of his worn lungs and
sore throat, is solicltous that this be Quaker
meeting, one of unspOken eloquence. Let
me say, however. this being the fifty-eighth
birthday of the president. We can properly
extend to him in the informal gathering the
heartiest and most sincere wishes IL COM
memoratiOn of the anniversary. His admin
istration will be known IN the hereafter, not
SO much as a republican administration, but
as an American administration"
President Harrison, after thanking Mr..
Arkell and his friends, said: 1--WE are gath
cred here in a spot which is historic. This
mountain has been fixed in the atfectiOnate
and reyerent memory of all our people and
has been glonted by the death on its summit
of General Grant. 1t was fit that the great
spirit that had already lifted its fame to a
height unknown in American history should
take its fight from this mountain top. 1t
has been said tine great life went out here,
but great lives. like that of General Grant.
don't go out. they go on. lCries of "goOd!'
"good!" Applause. l will ask you in rev.
erent and affectionate and patriotic remem-
brance, that the man who came out ahead of
all failures in military achievements and
others, with his great generalship and infiex-
ible purpose carrying the flag of the republic
to ultimate triumph, recalling with reverent
interest his memory, to drink a toast in
silence as a pledge we will ever keep in mind
his great services, and in doing SO will per-
petuate the great citizenship and glory OF
the nation he fought SO we'll to save"

BEAIIs, August 19.-The Reichs Anzeiger
says that in view of the unfavorable pros
poets, owing to wet weather and the prohibi-
tion of the expectation of rye from Russia,
the government has decided, as an expert
ment, to reduce the freight rates on corn and
mill cereals over state railways. by making a
sliding scale, the reduction to apply to rye,
wheat, barley, oats. pulse. Indian corn, wheat
-four and pulse shells- Although this conces-
sion will increase thu facilities for transporta-
ton, there is not an increased stock of grain.
AdVices from various parts of the country
show large iInportatiOns of grain will be i'm
peratiVely needed.
The government evidently relies on Amer
lea to supply the deficiency, but the public,
especially working men, are not 80 easily
satisfied to that.
The radical press in attacking the govern =
ment, dWells on the possibility that the eorli
syndicates of America are not likely to show
much consideration to Germany, If by with
holding grain they can force the markets and
get their own prices.
Letters from Vienna also indicate that al
though the relations of Austria and Germany
are of the most cordial nature, private indl-
viduals are not disposed to sacrifice their ex-
eeptional business profits to mere sentiment
