Gambling on Pigeon Races.

Gambling on the flight of carrier pigeons
In and around New York is the newest of
illegal sports carried on by men who pre-
fer to make money by risking it to earning
1t by legitimate means. Ii it is not abso
lutely undcnablc that the birds are being
flown designedly for the purpose of gam
bling. it is certain that there is lively bet
ting on the result And the astonishing
feature Of this gambling game is that 1t
Is carried on with the Brooklyn bridge as
q starting point.
The men who have introduced this new
form of gambling assert that it will soon
become a popular pastime for gentlemen
of sporting p'oclivities. There is no ques-
ton but that thousands of dollars have
been won and lost on the birds. D. ,
There Is regular book made on the
races. One can wager his money on the
chances of bird running first, second or
third. just as lie can win or lose on the
horses. Then again there Is an opportu-
nifty to place bet" on time practice
which is similar to the under or over"
bet on the race track 1t often happens
that certain bird is so fast that he has
no competitors. In such cases he flies
against time. If he is a record holder, the
bets are made that be either will or will
not break the record.

Woldemar Friedrich of Leipsic, who has

Brahman religion has here twice as many
representatives rs the Mohanmcdan. The
disciples Of one sect tie gauzy cloth

insect or particle of dust from entering

of all of Professor Fricdrich's experiences
was saint he met in the ncighborhood

fused to grant him a boon, therefore there
was something In his life that Kept him
in disgrace with the divine powers and he
determined to propitiatc his deity with
his martyr,iom of lifelong abstinence
from sitting or lying. In order to be able
to keep his vow he has been compelled to

GOOD FOR THE OFFICERS.
Boston Police Investigation Shows Up Well

Boston. Dec. 10.-In the police hearing
today, Officer Smith was subjected to a
rigid cross examination, but his testimony
was not shaken.
Bernard Finkelstein, an extensive real
estate agent, was the next witness. he
said that Sampson, the chief witness
against the policemen, told him that the
officers were after him all the time and he
wanted to get them out Of the way. Wit
ness said that Sampson never earned an
honest dollar in his life and he wouldn t
let him a house for 800 day.
Captain Wescott Of station 3, where
Officers Ryan and Smith belong, spoke
well Of the character of the men and their
work. and said his officers had given
Sampson bad reputation. Officer Smith
had been mentioned for promotion two
weeks before the charges were brought.
