TROTTING IN THE WEST.
Prospects Of the Big Meeting 10 Be Held al
Independence.

INptrE NpENoE, Ia, April 26.-TrottIng
horse breeders and trainers have not for
many years been favored with such an
early spring for beginning work. Not~ith
standing that this Is the Worlds Fair year
there will he three trotting meetings given
during the season.
The first will be given in June. and then
will come the great August meeting of two
weeks, beginning on the 2lst, preceding the
troting meeting to be given at Washington
Park by the Northwestern Breeders.
This, as usual. will be the big meeting of
the year. The third and last meeting will
begin about Oct. ! and continue for four
weeks. This meeting has very appropri-
ately been called the RECORD meeting, as
probably more horses obtain records during
its continuance every year than over all the
tracks in the West during that month.
Some 200 or 800 horses will be worked
here this season by the u or Is trainers
located here. Allerton himself will not be
trained or have a harness on this year. He
has been in active training since a 2-year-
old. and will, it is thought. be a better
horse next season for years rest.
His record of 2.09 II is the fastest of
anv liyiug stallion to a high wheel sulky,
and conservative judges believe if he is
| sound and right in 1924 he will certainly re-
/ duce the pre- sent stallion record of 2.01 81
several seconds, and may possibly chip a
fraction off the worlds record of got, now
held by Nancy Hanks.

keroooWAn OF the cHeRokEEs
Secret Society Said to Have Absolute Swa
Over the indians.

Sr. Louls, Mo-, April PC Not E,any
persons are aware that there exists among
the CheIokees secret society that Is said
to be hundreds of years old-as old in fact,
as the tribe itself, and is today stronger
than it ever was at least in numbers. This
society is called the Ketoowah, which, lit
orally translated means, elder brother. 1t
is sort of Indian free masonry and has
its laws, officers and secret signs.
Every member of the order is sworn TO
assist in the defense of their homes from
the invasion of their pale-faced brother
either by squatter sovereignty or by squaw-
men privileges. The society now has a
membership of about 1000 full bloods.
Each member is the head of family and
thus the organization represents about 5000
persons. 1t is not unlikely that in the near
future the ketoowah will become a known
factor in all Cherokee affairs, and that its
influence will be publicly used to postpone
the ultimate opening of all their lands.
