ON THE KITE TRACK.
Three Hard Fought Races Seen by 1000
People.

After two days adjournment of the
| Old Orchard midsummer meeting by
reason of rain the races were started yes
| terday afternoon with the track in fair
condition and skies bright and pleasant.
| The only drawback was almost
northwesterly wind that amounted to
young gale that occasionally sent
shower of Estraw hats heavenwards and
of course was not favorable to fast time
on the track. The speed made by the
horses under the conditions was excel
lent, nearly every heat being we'll down
in the twenties.
OF course balloon ascension in such
a wind was impracticable. The balloon
was ready and the aeronaut anxious to
fly, but the difficulty was to hold the 80
foot air ship in position to be inflated.
About two thousand people were pres
ent including many well known horse
men not only from Maine but Massachu-
chusetts, Rhode Island and elsewhere.
The judges in the stand were Messrs
Isaiah Pompiliy of Lewiston, starter; G.
W. Leavitt of Pembroke and l.. S. Grant
of Providence, r. I.
The 2.24 Glass.
The first race started was the 2.24
class, trotters and PAGERS, with eight
good horses in the field. Little Chief
took the first two heats, but had to fight
to win from beginning to end. Then in
the third heat he dropped back to
seventh place and Louis P. was the
winner. Then 'Allabreve took a heat
and Louis P. captured the fifth and
sixth, thus winning the race and first
money. Little Chief got second money,
Allabreve third and Little Rocket fourth.
Best time, 2.21 IA.

OUTING SHOES.

It long ago seemed as though
shoes could never be better and
never be cheaper, but they are
better now and cheaper now than
they ever were before. The great
every day favorite is our mems
and ladies' shoe. It is as much a
boon to the pocketbook as it is to
the feet. 1t won't wear you out
to wear it out. You don't need to
take care Of it; it takes care of
itself. 1t will give you solid COM
fort for the simple reason that a
better shoe for knockabout pur-
poses has never been produced.
If prices never appealed to you
before, the price Of this shoe will,
for it costs only $3.50. It will
look nicer and wear longer than
any shoe on earth.

The people of McCook should not lose
sight of the necessity of providing sewers,
in the more thick1y settled business por-
ton of the city at least. Some effort
might we'll be made along this line this
season if possible. Public health will in
the near future emphasize this demand,
and it were perhaps good to antici-
pate any i'll effects from the numerous
c~esspools in the city by providing proper
sewerage. Let the matter receive merited
thought and agitation On the part of our
progressive citizens.

Philadelphia is going to lend Liberty
bell to Chicago for her Worlds fair. The
sacred relic will leave home April 20 and
will be transported in a special car es.
corted by four policemen, who will never
lose sight of their charge till it is safe in
Philadelphia again. On the journey
stops will be made in all the large cities
to let patriots see the bell which pro-
claimed the independence Of the United
States of America.

The maximum rate bill passed the
senate yesterday aud now goes to the
governor who will undoubtedly approve
it. It will be the close of a long contest
and will be a relief. 1t cannot be said
with any certainty what its effect on the
state will be: that remains to be tried.
It is to be hoped that it will prove all the
panacea that is claimed for it. If it will
aid more people of all classes than it will
injure then it has come to stay. If it
does not then it can be repealed. 1t is
now open for trial.

Rev. A. II. Bartlett is about to remove

preclude him from longer remaining up

This is much regretted, as well as the
fact of his removal. Mr.. Bartlett is most
highly esteemed by all those who know

There was at least one indignant livery
man in the city, Monday morning, as he
looked over his jaded and ill-used string
of horses, which had just passed through
an unusually tough Sunday campaign,
in which fast and wreck1ess driving was
a noticeable feature. There is an ordi-
nance prohibiting fast driving in the city,
and in the behalf of the humane treat
ment of horses, and on the score of pub
lie safety, such ordinance might well be
more strictly enforced.

The Various Churches of the City
We're Filled to Overlooking,
There has never been a brighter or
more glorious Easter day in McCook
than last Sunday. Not only was every
body u to enjoy the balmy air and sun
shine walking or driving during the day,
but the churches and Sunday schools
were unusually crowded at the various
services.
Ali the churches had special Easter
services. Floral decorations were never
so profuse, making the interior of the
sacred editices as bright as the day out
side. Easter lilies occupied the places of
prominence, but almost every variety Of
flower was displayed in the magnificent
decorations. The music was an import
ant feature of the days services. The
services at the
METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH
Were attended by the members of the
St.John Commandery, Knights Templar,
in regalia in a body at the morning hour.
Rev. A. w. Coffman preached an appro-
pirate sermon to the occasion. The ut
most seating capacity of the church was
overtaxed and many were unable to gain
admission. The floral decorations were
elaborate and charming. The special
efforts of the choir were highly appre-
ciated. The children's services in the
evening were also very interesting.
Rev. D. L. Mcbride of the Baptist con-
gregation held services in the
LUTHERAN CHURCH
Both morning and evening, preaching
eloquent and appropriate discourses to
large congregations on both occasions.
Flowers in profusion added to the attract
~iveness Of the church's interior. The
choir provided a number of choice an
thems appropriate to the solemn YET
gladstone occasion.
The services at
ST. PATRIcK'S CHURCH
Attracted an overlooking congregation
They were conducted by Father Hickey
according to the impressive ceremony o.
the Catholic church. The superb choi1
was assisted by Reizenstein's full orches
ira of ten pieces. Farmers celebrated
mass was rendered in magnificent form
being a grand feature of the services
Flowers in tasteful array adorned the al
tar-many of them the gracious gift of
Chicago and California friends-Eastel
lilies, palms, ETC., producing a strikingly
beautiful effect.

celebration. Floral and other decora-
tons added a touch of beauty to the
scene and event.

The c~1oseness Of the vote on the Office

change the result of the election so far
