How the Race Horse Peytonia Won $500
For Little Miss Lowrcy
The caprices Of fortune ever consti
tnte a subject for special wonder, but
tho glorious uncertainties of the turf
afford perhaps n wider scope for refsc-
tioas on the ups and downs Of life than
almost any othor sphere of action. Earl
Lowrey, formerly of Pittsburg, but now
Of Chicago, tells story that illustrates
This conclusion very well.
On the morning of the day that Rev
III Santa Anita won the American
Derby at Washington park Lowrcy's
little girl, while looking over a pro.
gramme of the events which no had
earelessly left about the house, was
Btruck with the name "Peytouia, the
name of an entry in the first race of the
day. So deeply was she impressed with
it that she asked her father to place her
eavings of small change on Peytonia,
the total amount being 50, which he
agreed to do. On arrival at the park he
ut once discovered that Peytonia's
chances for victory appeared to be very
slim, one bookmaker offering 400 to |
against her. Lowrey, nothing daunted
placed the SO per order, and in doing
So provoked a smile from the man on
the block, which SO nettled him that he
promptly placed 50 moro at 40 to for
the place. As has so often happened be-
fore, Peytonia fairly dropped from the
clouds" when the horses were fairly
straightened out in the stretch, and to
the amazoment of every one won the
race with comparative ease. Miss Low.
rey's fondness for the name Peytonia
therefore netted her $500 in cash, while
the head Of tho family was 5000 better
of for acting as her commissioner. -

At your door one winter night
While the specter trees were rocking
In blast OF savage blight.
"Oh perishl' poor Love pleaded.

But although you heard and needed
Still no answer would you make;
Not one word Of sweet replying
Would your naughty lips have said
Even IL Love had lain there dying,
Even IL Love had lain there deadi
Then dreamed that Love o'erruled you,
For in tenderest voice he cried,
"Nay, dear lady, / sadly fooled you,
Since l am not Love, but Pride"
And you straightway oped your portals.
with a merry and welcome nod,
TO That wiliest of immortals,
To that masquerading god.
ALI, you oped your portals lightly,
Not for Loves but Pride's dear sake,
Yet, o lady, If dreamed rightly,
Love soon taught you your mistalSel

Pretty Harsh Talk at the Central
Labor Union.

NEW YORK, July 15.-The Central
Labor Union held a meeting to-day in the
Clarendon Ho tel. Hardly had the meet.
ing been called 10 order, and before any
business was transacted. Philip Kelly, of
the Theatrical Employees Protective Asso-
citation, started the ball rolling by saying
that the strike was decided success. "If
Chief Arthur had confined his convictions
the strike would have been won in twenty
four hours" he declared.
Henry Weismsnn of she Bakers UDIon
blamed Debs for calling the strike off.
"When Debs declared the strike off" he
said, sit was blow to organized labor in
this country. If Debs had been wise be
would have conferred with the Fedora
ton of Labor as well as the Knights of
Labor, instead of forming a partnership
with Sovereign. Sovereign assumed too
much when he said he would call out
100000 men in this country. He has not
the power to do So"
Master Workman j. B. Archibald said
that Debs conducted the strike admirably
until labor lent helping hand by sending
leaders from New York, and then the
strike went to pieces. Meyers. DamshOff
and Bandress hoped that some of these
leaders would be called to account for their
action.

General Superintendent Dickinson of the
Northern Pacific returned tonight on No.
l. the first through train from the East,
and says the entire road will be open as
usual tomorrow.
All passenger trains run on this division
to-day, and a solid train of tea from the
Orient. which has been sde-tracked two
weeks, was started for Chicago.
To-day there was a stampede of old
employees in making applications to be
taken back to work under Manager
Hendricks bulletin, the time expir-
ing at noon to-day. Many en-
gineers, freight-clerks. trainmen and
fifteen fremen applied for their
old positions, the officials say tonight.
They say they now have enough men to
man all trains. and that complete freight
and passenger service will be maintained,
beginning Monday. OF the old employees
making applications to-day only three or
four were A. r. U. men. Train 1 was
fired at at Enumclaw this evening, but no
damage was done.
The local Northern Pacific engineers
held two meetings to-day. the second one
ending late tonight. An American Rail-
way Union committee was present and the
latter claims that the engineers agreed to
stand by the strikers and not return TO
