A RACE FOR A VOTE.
A 275-Pound Republican Who VIII Have
to Vote for Cleveland.
Chicago News-Record

Chicago New.Record
Two fat men opened the campaign at the
stoekyards yesterday. One was Repub-
liean and the other Democrat. They jawed
about the tariff and the silver question for a
half-hour and then began to banter each
other on running fo0tTaee. Nelson Bush,
the Republican, weighs 275 pounds, but
manages TO get around through the yards at
a lively clip and has always claimed 10 be
light on his feet for such "heity man"
Several times he has defeated other big men
in running matches.
M0sen Weinberg is German. He weighs
230 pounds and is Democratic to the last
ounce. After discussing DO tiles with Bush
he agreed 10 run foOtrace. the loser TO vote
the other mans ticket this fall. Several
traders witnessed tha agreement, which was
made in Exchange Hall. The total length
Of the hall is about 30 yards.
While the two contestants were pulling
off their coats q crowd OF 400 people from
the yards and offices flocked in TO see the
great race. The men toed a mark at one
end of the hall. and the spectators, in top
boots and shirt sleeves. lined up along the
course. 1t was agreed that the first who
touched the big biackboa should be de-
clared winner.
The word was given. and the two moved
off in a ponderous lope that caused the
windows TO rattle. Bush set the pace at
first but the man from Augusta, carrying
nearly fifty pounds less weight, drew away
from him and jammed into the black board
three lengths ahead. While the race was
on all the traders howled with excitement.
THAT means the whole Democratic
ticket, from top to bottom" said Weinberg.

MENTONE CAVE BURIALS.
Discovery of Relics Of Men About Seven
Feet Tall.



Near Mentone. but on the Italian side of
the frontier, there are several caves in the
cretsceous sea cliffs, whose contents have
long attracted the lively attention of
psychologists. Unluckily they have been
worked over so much that the original STRAIT
ification is no longer apparent, but through
out the mass, flint chips and rude bone i'm
plements have been abundantly found, of
such character that they have been unani-
moEsly referred to palB0lithic man, to that
period of his existence in Western Europe
which De MOrtillet has called Solutreen.
Thus lar all Is harmony. but in this de-
posit at various depths skeletons have been
nnearthed and lively discussion ensued as
these should be considered also Of pal40-
lithic time or of later date. This debate has
been renewed by fresh discoveries Of such
remains In February last, a good descrip-
ton of which. by A. Vaughan Jennings,
appears in Natural Science for June. They
are said TO be of unusual size, relics of men
from six and q half to seven feet tall, but it
Is well known how easily one is deceived In
measuring skeletons. With them were
worked ornaments of bone and shell, neck
laces and finely Clipped arrow-heads. These
indications point conclusively TO the fact of
deliberate interment at period when
mortuary ceremonies were definite and
solemn rites, and unquestionably therefore
TO neolithic times. In spite of the depth at
which they were found-perhaps twenty
nve feet below the modern level of the cave
moor, they must be accepted as indorsing

KIRKWO0D'S KITE TRACK.
A Bold Challenge for other Localities to

New York Press

Bold Challenge for Other Localities to
Consider.
New York Fress.
Since the big opening at ''the great kite
track" Of the Maple Valley TrOtting Asso-
citation at Klrkwood, Della. on the Fourth
OF July, when Belle Hamlin and Globe
made new record of 2:12. which stands
to-day as the double-team record of the
world, a hundred men have been at work
altering the grade and widening the track.
so that now the start and finish are on a
level and the track has been widened to
slxty-fve feet.
In speaking Of these alterations Secretary
Mccoy said: 1.-THE reason for making this
change was to forever quiet the adverse criti-
cism against the track on account of the
finish being lower than the start. While we
recognize that these criticisms were mainly
the offshoot of our enemies, we decided,
after consulting one Of the engineers of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company. to change
the track TO comply with all the require
ments, as we saw an opportunity of widen
ing the track TO siXty-five feet. and at the
same time making it still faster. These
criticisms we're not the cause OF altering the
track, for l have letter from Mr.. Morse,
secretary of the National Trotiing AssOcia-
tion, under date of July 90, in which he
says that all records made on our track in
as VI anal OOuttitlOi nbuiu NC dECEpLCQ Ds
the National Trotting Association.
''Since the alterations have been made
the fast work shown on the track convinces
the association that the track is faster than
ever and the rehandhng OF the soil has
made it better. We are so pleased that we
challenge the world in the sum Of $4,000 to
produce a track faster or better than this
track. One great advantage this track has
had over all others is the watering appa-
ratus by which the entire track Is watered
simultaneously. This fact has been made
apparent during the long dry spell. We
have not had TO depend on rain and water
ing-carts TO keep the track moist and
springy; we had a Is, 600 gallon tank full Of

BULL MASTIFF AND SERPENT.
The Former Whips a Four Foot Reptile
After Desperate Battle.

Indian Daily News
A most exciting fight between bull mas
tiff and snake four feet five inches long, APP
parently Of the dhamin species, was wit
messed early one morning by a number Of
persons residing in house in Entally. The
gentleman in whose house the occurrence
took place keeps large poultry-yard, and
the snake. intending, no doubt, to make a
meal of one of the fowls or ducks, was
stealthily crawling into the yard when the
birds, seeming an enemy, began 10 crow aud
cackle and fiutter about in their alarm.
The snake had just caught duck when
the bull mastlif, attracted by the noise, came
running 10 the spot, spTang upon the snake
and seized il close 10 the head. Acting on
the defensive now the snake released the
duck aud c0iling itself round its antagonist
endeayored TO crush it, 1t compelled the
dog to roll over, but the latter refused TO
quit his hold, while with his hind paws he
struggled to tear the coils off him. This he
partly succeeded in doing and regalned his
feet, but the reptile once more coiled round
him, and 1t appeared now as IL the dog
would be strangled, the folds OF the snake
forming double ring round his neck.
The wriggling Of the snake and the
frantic struggles of the deg were now al
most terrible, and were all the more In
tently watched from the fact that no help
could be rendered 10 the plucky dog, who
never relaxed his grip. Both combatants
rolled over a second time and continued
struggling for fully five minutes. while the
dog paved up the ground all around and at
last managed to make slit about q span
long in the skin of the snake by means of
his claws. ThiS was the beginning Of the
end. The dog once more threw off the
coils and rose to his feet Releasing his
grip for moment, he made dash at the
head Of the snake and completely crushed
ii. Having disabled the snake so far he
tore the snakes body till the reptile was
emboweled. After severe contest,
extending over a quarter of an hour, the
brave dog gained complete victory.
Strange to relate, the mastiff, with the
exception of large swelling In the inside
of his mouth. sustained no injury. and ap-
pears to be doing well.

Curios Much I'm Demand.

At Stevens salesrooms some New Guinea
curios and natural history specimens have
just been disposed of at prices which show
that there is still good deal of spare cash
abont. Seven ordinary-looking butterflies,
each measuring about an inch across, fetched
within few shillings of 35 guineas, and
this despite the fact that they were nearly
fifty years old.
Curio-hunters were as keen as Indians for
scalps. and a collection of New Guinea
skulls, bearing crude ornamental carvings
and CHASTITY grin. sold for several pounds.
Human bone daggers, teeth neck orna-

ready purchasers, and even eclipsed In in

Mauritius of that extinct bird, the dodo.
