Pacing u Mile Ia 2:O4.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Sept. SO.-All
race records were smashed yesterday
and the worlds record made by Nancy
Hanks in her mile trotted against time
was tied. The average for the five
heats was less than 2:06s{. 1t was an
ideal racing day, and at least 1000 peo-
pie drawn by the excitement of Hanks
wonderful performance the day before,
were added to the crowd OF 10, 900 YES
tcrday and filed the grand stand and
quarter stretch. Before the great free
for-all pace, Vinnette had in the 2:13
pace lowered the tracks ace record
made by Hal Pointer, 2:O014, and then
lost the race, and the handsome daugh-
ter of Jersey Wilkes had taken n race
and n mark Of 2:l6H in handy STYLE. in
the 2:aS trot. Between the heats of the
last ace three free-for-allers were at
work out, and the Jib brushed q quar-
ter in 0:3l.
All of this served to work up the peo-
pie to fever heat, and when the three
side-wheelers scored down for the word
the Jib was ut the pole; Mascot, second,
and Guy, third. They got away at the
second attempt, scoring down at a ter
rife clip. They were at the eighth in
15Il seconds, where Mascot overhauled
Jib and took the pole. Guy was trail
ing, and 1t was plain to be seen that the
rivals We're to fight 1t out.
Around the upper turn they flew and
the Jib was at Mascot's throatlatch at
the half In 1:03H. The second quarter
had been done in 3l4 seconds. Faster
and yet faster was the pace for the
third quarter. 1t was a killing one.

Little Stock Lost in the Dakotas.

Official figures from the April report
OF the department ofagricultural show
that North Dakota ranks with the
lowest OF the states in minimum losses
OF stock during the past winter. Loss
es OF cattle are reported as follows:
Texas, Al per cent: New Mexico, 5
per cent; North Dako "a, 10 per cent.
For sheep losses the figures are: Texas,
5 per cent; New Mexico, 55 per cent;
North Dakota, 3 per cent.
These figures offer conclusive argu-
ment OF the superiority OF the north
ern climate for the animal industries.
In the southern climes cattle run to
bone, morn and hide; in the north de-
velopment is to flesh and fat. That
the idea that southern countries are
the best for stock raising and more
profitable is mistaken oneis evident
from the fac. that thousands OF cat
tie are driven annually atgreatexpense
from Indian Territory, Texas and
New Mexico to the ranges OF Montana
and western North Dakota, where
conditions so much more favorable to
health and development are found
that 1t pays to involve the extra e1-
pense OF moving to the northern
ranges.

THE 500 EXTENSION.

The 500 road is pushing forward as
rapidly as possible the preliminary
work for it's extension northwest into
Canadian territory. The RICH. ofway

and with good success. Farmers are

The 500 has some Objectionable feat.

new mileage. 1t will run through a
portion OF Canada, and ofcourse leave
the jurisdiction OF The United States
on a portion OF the line. all the roads
running east and competing with the
500, are fighting that road. Some OF
them will not acceptits tickets, but the
500 is carrying passengers to Detroit
and New England for less money
than any other line. Senator Cullom,
OF Illinois, wants to direct all freight
business of the northwest through
Chicago, and has introduced a bill
which prevents the 500 from carrying
freight IN bond through Canada. Ii

Bad For the Alliance Hail Association

In his report upon the Alliance
Hail Association, refusing 1t 8 license
to do business in South Dakota,
State Auditor Taylor says:
Ihave given the report a careful ex-
animation, and am sorry to say it
dlscloses 8 condition OF affairs which
cannot bsjustifed. The worst feature
disclosed is the gross discrimination
practiced in the payment Of losses.
Your policy holders should stand on
the samefootlng. Each should receive
his exact pro rata OF the amounts
collected and applied to the payment
OF losses. No more or no less. The
examination dlscloses that the
association has apparently had
a list OF per.erred creditors, Hun
dreds have been overpaid, and
the overpayment amounts in
the aggregate to thousands OF dol.
lars. This o.er payment has been
made to minority of your policy
holders. Every dollar thus overpaid
has beeu at the expense OF the MAORI
ty. Had the amount been equally
| divided 1T would have increased the
per cent to all, and one class would
not have pro6ted at the expense of
the other. Justice demands that the
overplus be recovered ana applied to
| increase the per cent OF payment ola
losses in an equal ratio, or, if that
cannot be done, that the assets OF the
association be converted into cash, the
losses prorated and each loser receive
the same per cent. Until this injustice
ia righted no application by the alli-
| ance Hail Association for certificate
OF authority will be considered by this
Office.

denial Of fhe charges and declares they
cannot be substantlated.

Platinum IN the Black Hills.

Platinum ore has been discovered in
the southern hills at point about
25 miles west OF Rapid City, S. D.
Among some specimens OF orsrecently
brought to thecity, DR.. Whitney found
g piece OF white quartz carrying what
appeared to be horn silver. He at
once pronounced it platinum and con.
firmed his opinion by the usual acid
tests. AS platinum is q very rare
metal and the demand for it in electri.
cal construction has brought the
price up to from $25 to S3Oper ounce,
the discovery is q very important one.
Reports OF a most favorable char
acter are still coming in from the Key
stone NINE. The pew tunnel has
reached the ore body and tits now ap.
parent that the mine is part of a YER
liable mountain OF ore. The vein,
which is about 100 feet wide, can be
traced for nearly a mile and 1T now
looks as if great group OF mines had
been opened up. A rownsite, to be
known as Keystone, has been laid
out and stores and saloons are being
built.
A surprising number OF new discover.
les, some OF them important and val.
liable. have been made in the south.
ern hills during the past few months.
This fact shows an unusual activity
among prospectors, who have been
stimulated to action By the building of
mining plants and the sale OF several
mines.
