Robert Rysdyk.
From Colman s Rural World

E9ALi tplIllaH > auG I
Robert Rysdyk 6060 is the cham
pion trotting stallion, and the cham
pion trotter of Missouri. His record
is 2:134 and he makes the season
of 1892 for only $50, which is very
cheap, considering his record and
individuality, for he is a very nicely
shaped horse, of good size, fine
style, and frictionless action.
The breeders of trotters must now,
more than ever before, consider
style and beauty as an indispensable
quality in their breeding enterprises.
Those who think that Robert Rvs
dyk has reached the limit of his
speed have IN opportunity to test
their Judgment, as the services oi
the horse car be obtained free, if he
does not reduce his record to 2:10,
providing they will give agood note
for $500, for his services, when thai
record is made. Hon. G. F. CLARK
is the happy owner of this stallion
and he will stand at his stables il
Mexico, Mo-, the present season
In addition to Robert Rysdyk, Mr.
Clark also has the finely bred trot
ting stallion Stopper 1858 ane
also that splendid thoroughbred
stallion Warfellow, son of Long
fellow, dam by War Dance.

Sedalia's Kite.Shaped Mile Track.

From Colman s Rural World.
Seth Griffin, the Brooklyn race
course builder, left to-day for Des
MONIES, To-, but viii return Monday
next, when actual work will be COM
menced on Sedalia's mile kite-shap-
ed track, which will be constructed
on a different plan from any track
in America. Instead of the track
crossing itself at the starting and
finishing points, the starting and
finishing stretches will run parallel
and about 10 or Is feet apart, or Just
space enough between them for a
commodious judges stand. By this
arrangement an easy down-grade
will be established from the wire to
the finishing point, making the fin.
ish at the wire 5 feet lower than the
grade of the starting point. Such q
track will be a record breaker with
out an equal, Mr.. Griffin says. Mr..
Grifin's way of building a track is
this: After obtaining aperfect sub
grade he places sections of sod II
inches square, edgewise and covers
this foundation with soil to the depth
OF or 10 inches. This forms a road
way which for elasticity has no su.
perior. Mr.. Griffin's estimate Of
the cost of construction of the track.
in the absence of an engineers sur.
vey, is between $1,000 and Sc, 900

Debt Paid After Many Years,

In the town of Dexter, away
back In 1867, a mill operative was
approached by another young fellow
and importuned for a loan of SIC
for a few days. The operative had
just that amount, but having a wife
and aged mother to care for hardly
dared spare it for fear of need, but
finally did divide, loaning the fellow
S.. Soon after the borrower dis
appeared and nothing more was
heard from him until last Christmas
day, when the lender, who is now a
leading business man of Skowhegan,
received a letter containing a check
for IS. accompanied by the mos
beautiful diamond solitaire stud he
ever saw. The incident had Ions
passed from his mind, but the
letter and present recalled that loar
OF twenty-five years ago in Dexter
1t remains to say that the borrower
is a wealthy jeweler in western New

One of the most interesting sights
along the Rio Grande is to see a reg
iment of Mexican soldiers taking a
compulsory bath. 1t is only under
compulsion that the rank and file of
the army ever do battle, and when
the ceremony is in progress one-half
Of the regiment enters the water
while the other half stands guard on
bank, rifles in hand, to shoot down
any man who attempts to desert.
When the ablution has been finished
the men resume their places in line
and guard their comrades while they
battle.

THE MAS0NS ASSESSED.
Insurance Commissioner Ellerbe De-
mands Quite a Sum From Mex
leo Policy Holders.

Judge S. NJ. Edwards has receiv-
ed from Col. Chris Ellerbe, State In
surance Commissioner, instructions
to collect from Mexico policy holders
back dues. These dues range from
s21 up to $40, according to the
amount ofinsuranee the party holds.
We understand hat no attention
will be paid to this call. The mem
bers do not think that they should
be required to pay for insurance
when they did not have any, and
that these dues accumulated after
the time, when as a matter of fact.
they had no insurance. The mem.
bers, in and around Mexico, are
mostly poor men, and if they refuse
to pay, they car not be collected
although they say if it is proper ane
right for them to pay that they are
willing to do so.
The Moberly Monitor, speaking O.
a call sent to Moberly, says:
"And as a scare to accelerate col
leetions adds: Heretofore, certifi,
cate holders in said association mere.
Iy forfeited their membership anc
attendant rights, if assessments were
not paid; but by legal Requirement
and under decisions of the courts
the payment of the assessment o
which you are hereby notified vii
be collected by law, by this depart
ment unless you pay same within
thirty days from date. The associa
ton, by decree of court, has beef
enjoined from further business ant
your certificate is therefore null ant
void from this date"
