For the 1856 class six starters appeared
and drew positions; Gypsey l, Clara NJ.
2, Catelle 3, Goldwood 4, Granieta 5,
Black Dan 6.
The field was quite unsteady for the
most part and it required considerable
scoring to get them started for the first
heat. The breaks were numerous, with
the exception of Dan and Clara M. Gran
ieta settled at the second half and made
a push for the heat. She outfooted Black
Dan on the home stretch and went under
the wire a, length ahead, but repeated
breaks deprived her of the heat. Dan
and Clara were rewarded for honest trot-
ting. The positions given were: Black
Dan, first; Clara NJ, second; Granieta,
third; Gypsey, fourth; Goldwood, fifth;
Catelle, sixth.
The second heat was very much like
the first, except there were few changes
in positions. Black Dan and Clara M.
trotted steady as clockwork. Granieta,
who had put in couple of winning
breaks, again made rush for the heat
on the home stretch but went to pieces
badly just before reaching the wire. The
places given were: Black Dan, first;
Clara M, second; Granieta, third; Cat
ellie, fourth; Gypsey, fifth; Goldwood,
sixth.

year-old boy Monday was found a mus

der. They were found near Canyon
Hill, Canyon county, hidden in the lava
rocks, by road workmen. The bones
are believed to be those Of . little
boy named Jarvis. who accompanied
his uncle, % man named Wilkins,
across the plains from St Jo-
scph. Mo-, in 1865. Little Jarvis
was the sole heir Of wealthy parents
who died In Boston in 1885. His uncle
became the guardian OF his person and
fortune, and decided to take his young
ward to Oregon. They proceeded to St
Joe, joined an emigfant train and after
many hardships reached TT Hallin,
Idaho There the train divided, Will

the lad left camp to shoot game.
Several hours later Wilkins walked
alone into camp and reported that lit
tie Jarvis had fallen from the lofty
brink Of distant cliff, dnshing out his
brains against the stones below. After
Wilkins reached Oregon all trace Of
him was lost When little Jarvis dis
appeared the emfgrants were ens

is every reason tos believe that the
skeleton just found Is his 1t
is thought that his uncle stabbed him
and leftthe body upon the lava beds as
food for wild beasts, the murder being
committed in order that he might ser
cure the fortune. that the boys parents
had bequeathed him. The bones OF the

PARIS, Dec. 21.-The political peril OF
France does not diminish Those who
are best Informed and whose judgment
is soundest are the ones who fear the
worst The head Of one Of the greatest
banking houses in The world, with
headquarters in Paris, said 10 one o.
the American dclcgatcs to the brussels
conferences: Il believe we are on the
eve of revolution. Few outside oil
France have conception OF the dangers
OF the situation. The temper Of the
people is not understood. They can
not and will not discriminate between
the government itself and the indi.
viduals who represent it"
1t is now generally understood that
the popular mind must be further ex-
asperated by more revelations OF cor
ruption in high places The Panama
story has not half been told. Every day
adds o fresh chapter A feature Of
great interest to Americans will prob
ably soon be made known. 1t involves
banker OF worldwide reputation, a.
well known in New York as In Paris.
He Is said to have been heavy benefi'
ciary of the Panama Co. without having
rendered any tangible pro quo. Rumort
about him were circulated In high
financial circles sonc months ago Al
that time he took an activei interest
in the proposal monetary conference.
He was indiscrete enough to show
a letter on the subjet writ
ten to him by Secretary Of
| the Treasury Foster. The effect was
| to discredit to some extent American
| motives IN calling the conference, and
the 20 operation f the strongest ErsIEi

less to say that thcreports connecting

were entirely unknown in America al
the time. Since then tho gentleman
has not been in American interests In
international plans In certain hnan'
cial quarters Tuesday reports were cir
culated questioning the stability OF his
