SAN BERNARDINo, Dec. 19.-On Christ
mas day splendid race programme has
been arranged to take place at Coles
track. T. B. Adams and ]. Sanford have
taken charge OF the affair and propose
to give days square racing. The en-
tries will close December 81. at 5 p. M,
and should be sent or delivered to Chas.

be sold Saturday evening, December %,
and also at the track on the day OF the
races. A free-for-all road race is first,
followed by road race for horses with
out record. Then comes the mile dash
for the 2:40 trotters. A three-eighths

cupy the attention OF the audience next.
The free.for-sll running race will come
just before the mile hurdle, which will
conclude the programme. Some fast
horses have been entered and splendid
days sport 10 assured. The hurdle race
has never been seen ON the local track
and will doubtless draw good crowd
alone, while the other events will prove
very entertaining.

waterways crowded the Art Institute, and
for several days international congresses
on this subject will be in session. The
largest of the three gatherings is the con-
gress of engineers, and it bids fair to be
the most important convention of its kind
ever held. Over 800 delegates have already
registered, and among these are many u
the foremost men in the profession in this
country and Europe. The engineering
congress is divided into seven departments,
representing the different branches of the
engineering profession-civil, mechanical,
mining, metallurgical, military, marine,
and naval
There was notable departure from the
rule observed in the congresses that have
already been held. Instead of long papers
being read in open session copies were dis
tributed among the delegates for their
perusal, and the proceedings consisted
mainly discussions of their contents. In
he division of civil engineering the open
ing address was dilivered by William Met
calf, president of the American Society of
Civil Engineers, and the principal paper was
presented by X. Caesar, building counsel
lor Of the Royal Prussian government, and
who described the methods by which
grade crossings have been abolished in por-
tions of Germany.
In the afternoon the engineers went to
the Worlds fair grounds with their wives
and daughters. They were escorted to
Music hall, where Director of Works
Burnham made one of the few speeches
credited to him in connection with
Worlds fair functions. The one great les
sion of the exposition. Mr. Burnham said,
had been to throw aside divisions and
unite in one brotherhood. Eckley Coke,
president of the American Society of Me-
chanical Engineers, echoed the sentiments
of Mr.. Burnham. The field was too vast,
he said, for any one of the professions to
say 1--WE have it all.' After the speaking
the engineers visited the Ferris wheel,
krupp's exhibit and other things of in
terest to the profession.
The architects held an interesting series
of discussions at the Art institute.

A WISCONSIN FARMERS CRIME.
He Murders His Wife and Three Chill
dren and Attempts Suicide

AMIGO, Wis, Aug. William None
macher, farmer living nine miles south
east of Amigo, murdered is wife and three
children about 10 o'clock, S ,turday night,
and then made an unsuccessful attempt to
take his own life The awful deed was
not discovered until Sunday afternoon at 5
O'Clock, and the news reached here tardilv.
At the imquest Nonemacher made a full
confession. He said the crops were poor.
and he was afraid Of starving His wife's
parents w,re in Quebec, where they had
come all the way from Germany, and
wanted morey, and he had none to send.
He had intended to kill his family Fri
day night, but he changed his plan to Sat
urday night. After the family was asleep
he went out and got an ak and returned
to do the deed. He said he killed his wife
first by three swinging blows on the left
temple. He then went into the next room
and killed Joseph, 6 years, and Willie 4
years old. He struck both boys on the
head twice. Returning to the room where
his wife lay he picked up his year old
baby held her in one arm and struck her
onshe top of the head.
He then went to the barn, climbed on
the roof and jumped twenty feet to the
floor of the pig stye, sustaining injuries
to the spine and paralyzing his lower ex-
tremities. A visit to the scene of the mur-
der disclosed horrible sight. The moth
er lay on her left side with a gap
ing wound in the temple. The baby
was in the cradle beside the bed in sleep
ing posture. The boys were in the bed in
the next room in a pool of blood. The
father, as he lay on the floor of the kitch-
en-, paralyzed but conscious, without the
least sign of sorrow or regret, talked as
calmly about the murder as he would
about killing pig. Nonemacher cannot
