grounds is good, and all visitors when
questioned remark that, as a whole, the
1alr Is great Improvement over previ-
Gus years. The race meeting ecipses
anything ever held in Rochester, as NAV
be seen by reference TO the race reports
given elsewhere. Mr.. Mccarthy, the
starter, was at Independence, and is up
to the needs of the position The Fort
Smelling band is again with US and is
adding more laurels each day. To tell
the truth, Rochester people are COM
pletely '"struck" on their music. To-
morrow is

and Hon. ID. W. Lawler will be present
and address the people. Great prepara-
lions have been made for the reception
or Mr.. LAWYER, and, if the weather is
favorable, thousands of people will be
present to listen to this brilliant orator.
The Democrats have been congratulate
ing themselves upon the fact that Dan
LAWYER was to speak here the same
week that Knute Nelson did. 1t would
give the people chance to see and
hear each gentleman, and decide which
would be the more fit man for governor.
Prominent Democrats are of the opin-
ion that Mr.. Lawler will make a large
number of votes by being here to adj
dress the people so soon after his oppo-
nent. Success is already written upon
the face of this meeting. which is de-
serving recognition of the pluck, enter
prise and resources of the queen CITY

try.

gational church. When called upon he
exposed his blank, duly filled out, winch
certified to the marriage of Frank w.
Wheelock. aged twenty-three, and Miss

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, Sept. 15.-The third
day of the st. Joseph exposition and
races saw $4,000 on tie grounds. The
crowd was one huge jam of moving
humanity, craning their necks and
slbowing their neighbors for an advanta-
geouS view of the track and the sulkied
horses that swept by.
Nancy Hanks was the drawing card
today. She was advertised to lower her
record of 2:07 OH regulation track in

fore the largest assembly Of people that
ever witnessed turf event in the West.
No sovereign lady was ever accorded

nodded at the second score, and Miss
Nancy went away under favorable cir
cumStanceS, with Abraham Lincoln

thought the start was trifle slow. and

they became more SO when the half

The Crowd Was Breathless

point second runner was added. and
the little mare came tearing down the
home stretch at 2:05 gait, but could
not overcome her somewhat unfayora-
bic start, and the record was not broken,
though ali maintained that 1t was eX-
cellent, for, as she flew under the wire.
the watches stopped at 2:O715. The
crowd was satisfied and the pent-up
enthusiasm broke forth in an almost

A SOAP SWINDLE.
One Worked on the Good PeopIe
of HOkah

HoKAH, Sept. 15.-Many citizens are
kicking themselves for being bitten by
a travelling shark. Recently smooth
tongued travelling agent arrived in town
selling soap, etc., dealing out 81 worth,
and no more, to each person. AS an in
ducement, he informed each one that a
second agent OF the company would ar
rive in town in just week and present
each of his purchasers with a present,
consisting of set of dishes, parlor
lamp. lace curtains, etc. He took note
of their choice and told them that it was
necessary that each soap wrapper should
be kept to show in order to obtain the
present. The soap is an inferior article
and the whole outfit is probably worth
80 cents. OF course, the second agent
has not arrived.
