on an election. lie bet on Mr.. Cleveland
IN the autumn of 1892 and won 100000
and put up sl35, 900 TO do 1t.
There is one feature of Dwyer's betting
which is quite unusual He prefers to bet
on a horse when the odds are so ridicu-
lously small that most people would re-
frain from sheer disgust. He has been
known TO bet SEQ, 900 frequently TO win
s3, 000 He Is said to have bet 500, 900 to
win sc. 600 in a race between Joe Cotton
and Binette at Sheepshead Bay in 1887.
In the same year he bet $4,000 against
ss. 600 on Hanover, and in 1885 he bet
S25, 600 against So, 900 on fremont. Per-
sonally Dwyer very seldom enters the bet
ting ring at the race track during the run
ming of the races. He has trusted commits
sioners to whom he gives instructions.
Usually they keep him posted as he sits in
the grand stand, clubhouse or judges box
as to how the betting is going.
In buying horses Dwyer buys those
which have won races. He paid $1,000
for Raceland ut the sale Of the Belmont
stable, and the old gelding won over $40,
600 for him before he died. Potomac and
Don Alonzo cost LIN $50, ,000 yet they
paid for themselves within year, and
Luke Blackburn won him immense sums,
The heaviest winning ever made by the
Dwy-r stable was in Tremont's year, when
they won sos, 1863. In addition 10 this
Mike Dwycr won about 500, 900 in bets.
In victory or defeat he is calm and col
lected, never giving way either TO disap-
pointment or exultation. A friend once
met Dwyer after most disastrous day at
the races. He smiled as he said: "It was
a pretty bad day. / didn't win bet. F"
1t was said that his losses aggregated $35,
900 on that day.

He Wins and Loses Thousands with the
stoicism OF AN Indian.
Michael Il. Dwyer, the famous Amer
lean horseman and plunger, who together
with Richard Croker, the ex-ieader OF
Tammany Hall, Is tempting fortune on
English tracks, Is, with the possible ex-
ception OF Riley Grammar, the most aar-
ing bettor on the races tho American turf
knows. Messrs. Dwyer and Croker are
said TO hayo lost ESQ, 900 In single day
on one of the English tracks, but as they
are also reported to have won siOO, 600 on
the victory OF Eau Gallie, formerly Utica,
they seem TO be still we'll ahead OF the
game. For some years prior to 1876 Philip
and Michael Dwyer were butchers In
Brooklyn, but In tho centennial year they
began to attract attention on the turf
with Rhadamanthus, black sprinter.
The brothers remained In partnership IA
wears. and when they separated because OF
Mikes daring plunges each had u, 600, 600
as his share OF the money their stable had
made.
Philip has continued his conservative
course, but Mike is as great plunger as
ever. He owns a stable Of horses worth
easily $3.50, 900, is chief owner OF the
New Jersey Jockey club grounds, Is
large shareholder In the Gravesend track,
owns a hotel on the Indian river, F---roa,
where he spends the wintS- months ana
has other possessions. All this his horses
or his pluck as a bettor won for him In IL
years. Dwyers most famous coup as
heavy bettor was not on horse race, but

MRS. NITRATE.

pedal bicycle entirely around the earth.
The woman globe girdler has not thus far
proved her right 20 the title by riding tho
necessary 90, 100 miles. Miss Annie Lon
donderry IL now completing an alleged bi-
cycle ride around the world, but has made
such astounding time through Europe and
Asia that her riding must have been done
on steamers and railroads
Mrs. McIlrath, however, feels certain
that she can aetussly ride the entire dis
tancc on her bicycle and be as much in evil
dence at the finish as her husband. she
Is a brunette, feet 2 inches tall. She has
always lived a quiet home life and prior
to her marriage two years ago claimed De-
flance o., as her home. To her the result
of the trip seems but a foregone conclusion.
Like Mrs. Corbott, the wife of Champion
James, she "knows her husband will
win" Her strength and endurance must
not be underestimated because OF her di-
minutivc stature, as for two months Mrs.
McIlrath has accompanied her husband
upon n daily ride of from 30 to 90 miles
In all kinds of weather and over all grades
of road.
Mr.. McIlrath Is Of athletic physique, 0
feet in height and weighs about 100
pounds The love of athletics and field
sports he bears Is honestly borne, as the
birthplace of this gentleman was the "old
McIlrath homestead" Cleveland, well
known to all Ohioans as the home OF I'm
Gle Abncr and his seven foot sons. I'm
Gle Abner was giant in stature, feet 8
inches, eco pounds In weight and has been
known 10 lift over 1000 pounds without
harness or appliance and yet sufficiently
agile To vault over an ordinary horse. An
interchangeable fox hunter and cross country
rider he was well known to all in the
early days Of Cleveland.
His grandson in choosing n vocation TO
pursue in life selected that of physician,
but after three years of hard study drifted
into the journalistic field, and as cyclist
and journalist now is confident that the
blending of the physical and mental train
ing Of tho past six years will serve him
well in this the great effort of his life. He
is an expert road rider, has an excellent
physical development and is 81 years OF
age His tour is being made under the
auspices OF the Chicago Inter Ocean.

In opening my letter feel that few
words are in order about the famous
I.inscott race, which took place at NAL
den last Saturday, principally owing to
its remarkable success In every
way, it's able management, and
interesting composition. Contrary
TO the usual order OF things, the
start was made with q precision aud
accuracy that has characterized no other
road race in this country. Just at
the instant the church clock struck
three, the limit men sped on their
way, and the race was begun, while
at eight minutes after three the scratch
men were off, scorching to catch the limit
men. The scene was one never to be for
gotten. All along the route were thous-
snds and thousands OF persons OF every
size and description, and many enthusi-
Rstic residents showed their interest
by tastefully decorating their houses. At
eighteen minutes and forty-four seconds
past four o'clock, number Al, George X.
Cutter, was on the lips OF thou
sands of persons, a few seconds
later the wires flashed the news
all over the United States. Cutter was
the hero of tho hour, and for as much as
Eve minutes he was cheered TO the echo.
This Linscott race was by far the best that
was ever held. Ordinarily, to begin with.
there is delay OF from half an hour to an
hour before starting, And, again, we
usually hear of some severe accident. but
in this event nobody was hurt seriously,
but owing to a puncture in forward
wheel one man scraped his leg very
slightly. Thenngain, it is no simple mat
ter to keep the vast throng OF spec
tators on tho sidewalks. Owing to
the very able management the riders re-
ported TO a man that not once were they
In the slightest way hindered. Lastly,
there were 80 starters-if l am not very
much mistaken the largest number that
ever participated In road race before.
30, take 1t all in all, 1t was an ideal
affair, and other managers and clubs
would do we'll TO profit by the excellent
example extended by Mr.. Linscott and
his associates.

1he result OF the mile run and throw
ing the hammer at the Harvard athletic
games, held last Saturday, was received by
athletes in general with great emazement.
II has been generally thought that the
records made by Guy Lowell, 1872, in the
mile run at The inter- collegiate games
three years ago, and that OF j. X. Finlay, in
throwing the hammer four years ago
would never be beaten at Harvard. j. l..
Coolidge, however, did the mile in M,
3 i-5 sec., beating Lowell's time by 2-35
sec. II. X. johnson threw the hammer
los feet. in, beating Finlay's best throw
by three inches. Greatest wonderment
is expressed at the fact that neither Of
these men have trained for their events
this year, and are by no means ut their
best. Many are OF the opinion that they
can beat their own records, in fact, so
certain is Mr.. Lathrop, the instructor Of
athletics, that he has persuaded them to
make another trial, which will probably
come off at the end OF the week.

New Londoners certainly appreciate the
fact that the annual Yale Harvard boat
race is a perfect bonanza to the city, so
this year they're going 10 tfy to swell the
receipts by holding mammoth open re-
gatta under tho auspices of the Pequot
Casino Association. This would
indeed be novelty, and would no

WAITING TO HEAR OF HELP.
Deplorable Condition of people in tn,
Drouth Stricken Regions.


Fargo, n. D., Jan. ga citizen of
Fargo is in receipt Of a letter from Hon.
W. S. Hampton, county judge of Per-
kins county, Neb., which shows a ter
rible state or affairs in that county.
The resources of the people are ex-
hausted. The banks have closed up.
There is starvation staring them in
the face unless outside relief is made.
Women and little children are suffer-
ing for the barest necessities and dy-
ing by inches for want of food. Judge
Hampton says in his letter:
The needs of the people are great
and now that cold wave has struck
us we feel the need as never before
Many are suffering from lack of fuel
having nothing but cow chips to burn.
The restitution needs 10 be seen to be
appreciated
Judge James N. Ray of North Platte.
Lincoln county, writes in a similar
strain. He SAYS:
1T is almost daily that the needy
here are in the court house, the most of
them quietly bearing these burdens
or want and often not even asking, vet
waiting about to hear of help. To
make things worse than l have seen
before, this late crop failure came up
on US at time when our resources
were already exhausted by short crops
The quarters, halves and sometimes
dollars that a few of US who are more
fortunate can give seem only to agra
vate the misery as il is so little COM
pared with the need"

MUST GET OFF AND WALK.
No Annual Passes for Officers of Railway
Employees Organizations.

Employees Organizations.
Chicago, Jan. 5.--Grand officers of
organizations of railroad employees this
year will not be able to travel around
the country on free passes. The ex-
perience had during the Debs strike
with Vice President Howard of the
American Railway union, who lost his
pocketbook with forty annual passes
in 1t. has fought the railway officials a
lesson they will not soon forget. From
a circular just issued by Chairman
Midgey 1t appears that applications
have been made jointly on behalf of
the grand officers of several organiza-
tons of railroad employees for annual
passes over the roads parties TO the
pass agreement and have been de-
clined. Mr.. Midgley says that rule 10
of the executive committee excludes
the officers of labor organizations from
the exchange privilege, but permits
the issuance in their favor of trip
passes limited in duration. They re-
ply that trip passes will not answer
their purpose. and the secretary Of
the Order of Railway Conductors has
written to certain railroad managers
asking IL in return for advertising in
the Railway Conductor, which he
states is monthly journal with a cir
culation Of 10000 copies, transporta-
ton will be furnished that will enable
the officers to respond without delay
to sudden calls for their services at
points along the respective roads.
Chairman Midgley rules that, to ad-
vertise in the way described and pay
for the same in transportation as re-
quested, would be manifest evasion
of rule 10. hence all such applications
should be declined

medicine is the one that cures the

The cough medicine that has been
found always reliable TO remove the
cause, and thus stop the cough, is Pc

all kinds OF cough. Pe-ru-na operates
directly to heal the congssted or in
