WOOLAs WINNER.
Highland County First in the Great
Pullman Road Race at Chicago.

One OF the greatest, if not the greatest,

annual road race from Chicago to Pull.
man, ILL.,, q distance OF Is miles. 1t is
always run on Decoration Day, and the
crack riders Of the country are entered
in every race, as the winning OF it is
considered great honor. This year
ten thousand people watched two hun.
dred and forty. nine of the very flower of
wheelmen start from in front of the
great auditorium, thousands along the
way encouraged the contending racers,
and great throng cheered themselves
hoarse at the end of the course when,
just So minutes and 40 seconds after the
start, J. B. Woolas, Of the Eake View
Club, crossed the line seconds ahead
OF his nearest competitor. The winner
is son Of Mr.. N. Woolas, of Russells,
and former resident OF Hillsboro. He
worked in . restaurant here for some
time and finally removed to Chicago
about six years ago.
He is baker by trade and took to
riding wheel two or three years ago as
means Of relaxation and exercise. He
is strictly an amateur rider and entered
this race, his frst, only after q great
deal Of urging on the part Of friends and
with no idea Of being the winner. That
he underrated his own powers is shown
by the way he VOL from the great riders
from all over Illinois. Iowa and Wiscon-
sin. The Chicago Herald OF May 3lst
contains . six column account OF the
event. including an excellent likeness OF

tative.

Miss DuttOn,s Recital.

One of the largest audiences ever as.
sembled in the Armory Hall was pres.
ent last Wednesday night in response to
Miss Dutton's invitation to the recital
to be given by herself and the pupils of
her music class.
From the opening number on the pro.
gram, the chorus, "Gaily Ger the
Ocean," which was finely rendered by
Misses Shaw, Hill, Pence, link, Lynn,
Wright and Evans and Messrs. Morrow,
Shepherd and LeFevre, until the last
number, the quartette by Misses Dutton
and Shaw and Messrs. Shepherd and
Morrow, the selections merited and re-
ceived the most hearty applause.
After the opening chorus, Miss Kate
Hickle made her initial appearance as a
performer in public and scored a success
with her pretty piano solo, "Mon Petite
Oisean." Misses Haigh and Hite gave a
splendidrendition OF the duet, Echoes,
from Hoffman, and the beautiful piano
solo, "Chauson Boire," from Leybach,
was brilliantly executed by Miss Grace
Patterson. The piano trio, From
Ocean to Ocean," by Misses Dutton,
Fullerton and Lemon, was one OF the
most striking numbers on the program.
The next number, the 'Gems from Scot.
land" by Julia Rive. King, with its
sweet medley OF Scottish melody and
the delightful playing of Miss Rebekah
Mutton, to whom the number was en-
trusted, was one of the most popular Sc.
lections of the evening aud met with an
enthusiastic reception, the performer
being compelled to acknowledge the
vociferous applause by second appear
ance on the stage.
"One Star" the part song which was
to have been given next, was omitted,
but Miss Jennie Pence more than made
up the deficiency by her excellent vocal
solo. The Overture from William Tell''
by Miss McNicol and "Les Voix du
Matin" by Miss Anna Lemon were
highly creditable to both performers
and showed unusual ability on the part
OF both. The vocal -quartette, "La
Carita," by Misses Dutton, Shaw, Wright
and Evans was decidedly the hit of the
evening, the voices blending deliciously
and the selection being of such nature
that the exquisite qualities of each voice
were fully exhibited. "Ah! che la
Morte," with the sadly sweet strains of
the Miserere, from II Trovatore, was the
next selection and lost none of its beauty
in its rendition by Miss Mary Fullerton.
The next number, the Minnet, danced
with all possible grace by Misses Shaw
Hough, Nelson, Feibel, Stevenson, Full.
lerton, Smith and Spargur, was designed
more for the eye than the ear, but the
music in the voice of Miss Katie Wad
dell, who introduced the dance with a
recital of the poem, "The Minuet," and
the harmony of the movements of the
dancers gave the number the right to a
place on the program Of which it was 9
most attractive feature. The entertain
ment closed with the vocal quartette
"Good Night, Beloved" Nothing wat
heard at its close but praise for the per
formers and Miss Dutton, whose ability
as an instructor was so plainly evidenced
| by her pupils work.

PROBABLY MURDER.
The Result Of n Quarrel Over q
Trivial Sum.
Sam Douglas Stabs Ed, Skeen at New
Boston.

A quarrel over small sum OF money
led to fight at New Boston on Monday
morning in which Ed. Skeen, young
married man, was seriously, if not fatal
ly, wounded by knife in the hands Of
Sam Douglas. The difficulty occurred
in the street at Boston and was witness.
ed by both Skeen's wife and mother,
who attempted to render him aid but
were unable to do so.
Douglas had been doing some work
for the Skeens and there was still a
small amount, fifty or seventy Eve cents,
due him on his wages. He called at the
house during the latter part of the week
to collect it, but was told to come again
on Monday morning for it, as Mrs.
Skeen was expecting some money due
her and would give him his then. In
accordance with this Douglas returned
about nine o'clock on Monday morning
determined not to wait any longer and
demanded the payment. He was again
refused and became very abusive. Skeen
replied in the same strain and the two
shortly came tn blows. In the scutfle
Douglas drew knife and made a. vic
ious lunge at Skeen, stabbing him in the
left side about in line with the nipple.
Skeen grabbed Douglas arm, but he
quickly transferred the knife to the
other hand and stabbed Skeen again on
the right side almost opposite the first
cut.
The wounded mans condition is con.
sidered extremely critical and the grav-
est doubts are expressed as to his re.
covery. Messengers came Immediately
to Hillsboro and an affidavit was sworn
out against Douglas, but he has not yet
been arrested. He was said on Monday
to have fled, but he was at home on
Tuesday waiting for SOMEONE to arrest
him. There seems, however, to be Il
lack OF inclination on the part OF some.
one to perform the job. 1t is under.
stood that Douglas claims to have acted
in self defense.
