Racing.

Now that the fair and racing season
is upon us we suppose it becomes the
newspaper publishers to keep track OF
the fastest time made, &c. Accord
ingly, we are pleased to remark that
"Flylng Jib' flew over mile tract re.
Gently in one minute and ffty-nine
and half seconds. "Flying Jib" is
PAGER that PAGES at a very rapid
pace, it seems. The following more
minute report gives the details in full:
CHILLIcorHE, Ohio, Sept. 3o.-The
nare of Flying Jib is on the tongue
Of every horseman here to. night, on
account Of the wonderful mile paced
by this celebrated gelding at the kite
track to-day. Flying Jib, hitched to
a running mate, paced a mile in the
phenomenal time Of 1901, lowering
the record of a.oIs, made by West
mont in Chicago in 1884 at this style
Of racing, IT seconds. The perfor.
nance does not constitute a record,
as this method of pace making is not
recognized as legal, and has no bear
ing on Robert is valid record Of
2.oI5.
At one o'clock the 'Jib" was
brought on the track and in the pres
ence of 900 people was sent warm.
ing up heat in ais. In few minutes
he again came on the track driven by
Andy Mcdowell and after scoring
once his driver nodded for the word
'go." Up the track the fleet-footed
animal went without a skip, while the
spectators held their breath in amaze
ment. In he came 10 the home stretch
apparently going faster every step.
When the time of 1904 was announ-
ced the spectators could scarcely be-
lieve it and still more dumbfounded
were they when the last half of the
mile was announced as being made in
5St seconds.
This demonstrates very clearly that
the Chillicothe track is the fastest in
the country, it being smooth as a
table. All the visiting horsemen here
and the city is full of them, say that if
the weather is favorable this week
more records will be smashed at this
meeting than at any meeting held this
year.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infamed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
OF ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inhamed condition OF
tie mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

Senator Hill Diagnosed.

Senator Vest throws back his vest
and says Of Senator Hill: "He is a
man without appetite or passions, not
great man in point OF intellect, but
great worker and what might be
termed political corporation.
Hill represents the fighting Dem
ocracy of New York, said the sena-
tor, "and believe he will defeat Nor
ton who will be bled until he will give
up no more. Hills opposition to the
Wilson bill was because of his opposi-
tion to the income tax. He agreed
with German and Brice on every part
of the bill except the income tax, To
that he was irrevocably opposed, for
two reasons First, because he want
ed to strengthen himself with the busi-
ness men and capitalists OF New York,
who had always been against him and
for Cleveland Second, because he
did not want 10 drive from the Dem
ocratic party in New York the men
who made liberal subscriptions for
campaigns Hill is a practical politl-
clan. If he has any sentiment it is
hatred to Cleveland He determined
not to give up his hold in New York
whatever might happen and he played
the opposition there to the income tax
as his trump card.

The late Dr. Yandell was fond Of tall
ing the following joke; A lady patient
one morning greeted him with the re-
mark, Doctor, l had such q singular
dream about you last night" Indeed
What was it p why, i dreamed that
/ died and went to heaven. I knocked
at the golden gate and was answered
by Peter, who asked my name and ad-
dress, and told the recording angel to
bring his book. He had considerable
difficulty in finding my name, and hesi-
tated so long over the entry when he
did find it, that was terribly afraid
something was wrong but he suddenly
looked up and asked, What did you
say your name was p 1 told him
again. Why, said he, you've no
business here. You're not due these
ten or fifteen years yet Well, said I,

He Fakes no Risks !

North Pole expeditions, like Sena-
torial Summer jaunting parties, might
be dispensed with without any great
injury to the nation or the funds in
her treasury. The money already
spent by this Government in vainly
searching after the North Pole would
no doubt pay the bounty heretofore
paid on sugar and thus make Have
meyer happy and perpetually solidify
louisiana.
The latest from the latest North
Pole expe dition is from the noble
and self sacrificing Lieutenant Peary.
He writes from the icebergs of Cape
Elizabeth that he is confident of
carrying out his plans. Whatever
they are, it is likely it will be just as
cold in that latitude after Peary's
plans are fully carried out as it was
before. Its the incessant frostiness
of that latitude that reveals the folly
OF all such expensive expeditions in
our opinion. Why not hunt the South
Pole awhile? ? In the same epistle re.
ierred to the brave lieutenant writes
that ne did not fully realize his plans
last year but that he has still another
year before him-in other words, his
provender is yet good for year. He
very truthfully mentions, as the prin-
cipal obstacle in the way of his success
that the weather is both cold and
rough where he is, and We not pre-
pared to dispute it, or to urge him
into colder and rougher weather for
fear he'll! freeze. By way of consola-
ton to friends and relatives in this
more comfortable latitude the lieu
tenant says:
Whatever you may see in the
papers to the contray, / have ample
provisions for tine next year. My party,
though small, is an effective one, and
We can remain here with the most
complete safety. Every native in the
tribe is a friend and assistant, and l
shall take no risks. l am only work
Ing to carry out my plans, and shall
take no risks to accomplish them"

Jolly Congrcssmen.

Congressman have queer appetites,
and sometimes evince tastes not known
TO the epicure. At the older hotels in
Washington, fourth meal known as
supper is served from nine o'clock to
midnight, and this often becomes tho
jolliest feast Of the day. Where o mum.
Der OF Congressman are housed at one
hotel, they form large supper party,
and from the hilarity that reigns q
looker-on would imagine they we're i'm
bibing champagne or other exhilarating
liquids without end. Often, however,
il you could look over their shoulders,
you would be astounded to see every
one of those Congressman eating bowls
of innocent mush and milk. Another
Congressional food is apples. 1t is o
very familiar sight during the sessions Of
Congress to see q member of the House
open his desk, extract rosy apple,
bring out large jackknife from his
pocket, and then seek the seclusion Of
the cloakrooms to devour the feast.

1t was Archie Coles wedding day.
From boyhood he had been late at
school, late at church, late at meals, late
everywhere. "Pll wager" said his
brother John, laughing, that you can't
be first even to kiss your bride at the
weddingr'
"Oh, I'll not be late then," said
Archie.
Two hours later Archie stood with the
pretty maiden by the flowers in the par
lor of her pretty home. The guests
were seated. The minister rose.
Archie's failing and Johns prediction
were known to them all Nevertheless,
Archie knew he should not be late now,
for his dear old mother had made all
the guests promise not to precede him
in kissing the bride.
The solemn VOWS were said softly and
the fervent prayer was spoken slowly,
while robin could be heard singing on
the lawn.
Amen" said the minister.
Archie bowed to kiss the bride, but
he paused for an instant; he smiled, he
blushed. A sunbeam stealing through
a rift in the heavy curtains was trem-
bling gently on the brides lips.
I've won the bet!" cried John.
The guests laughed and the preacher,

Where The Herald Stands.

At the head Of this column appears
the Republican state ticket. Our rea
sons for placing it there can be stated
in very few words:
Everybody at all conversant with the
political situation in Colorado to-day
recognizes the fact that the pending
electoral contest is between the Republi-
can and Populist parties--the former
standing forth in unequivOcal terms
for business methods in the manage
ment Of the affairs Of the state; for law
and order and for the impartial protec-
ton of every interest engaged in de-
veloping the vast resources of our great
state; the latter, with Waite as its head
light, standing out boldly as the repre-
sentative of anarchy, socialism, mis-
tion of the industries of the state.
These facts being in plain view, every
taxpayer, every law abiding citizen and
everyone having the welfare of Colorado
at heart, is asked to choose the side on
which he or she wishes to cast their lot.
There is no middle course. 1t is either
Waiteism and repetition Of the rule OF
ruin methods of the past two years, or
McIntire and good government for the
ensuing two years, and on this extra
ordinary occasion THE HERALD doesn't
hesitate as to which side it shall af-
tiliate with. In plain words, it is on
the side that is enlisted in this political
war for law, order and progress.
But we are asked, "Does not the ticket
headed by Hon. g. S. Thomas stand for
law, order and progress ?" 1t does, and
every man and woman on it excepting
Cashmere Barela) is the peer of any
other man or woman in Colorado when
it comes to question OF character and
fitness for Office, but the individual with
the intellect of a sage hen can readily
see that it stands no more chance of be-
ing elected than SNOWFALL does OF eX-
isting in hades. Therefore, THE HER
AID takes its stand with Judge Mark
ham, ex- Governor Grant and thousands
of other Democrats who believe that the
duty of the hour is to restore this grand
commonwealth to the proud position it
occupied in the commercial world before
the blight of Waiteism fell upon it.
