Great TrOtting at tile Second Day
Of the Midsummer Meet.
HOW WINNING HORSES LOWERED
THEIR RECORDS.
Miss Peek Takes Tumble With Her
Horse But Comes Up Smiling-A Good
AtteEdance-TOday's Event.

After a day of storm the races at Rigby
were resumed yesterday with the weather
all that could be desired. The track was
in fine shape and, although there was a
fresh breeze blowing, it was day favor
able to the making of fast time. There
was good attendance.
The days events were varied by two
Miss Peek was giving one of her ex-
hibitions, that in which she puts her
agile jumping horse through his PAGES,
the animal did not in one jump go quite
high enough. There was the clatter of
falling bars as the hurdle was knocked
apart, and then the horse fell on his
knees, rolling over on his side, but fortu-
nately not on his rider. Several men
rushed to her assistance, and she was
lifted out of the way while the horse re-
gained his feet Then the plucky rider
sent him at the hurdle again. Once he
refused, but the second time went over in
good form. Miss Peek was somewhat
famed by the fall, but afterwards put her
trick horse, Boston, through his PAGES.
She had previously ridden mile stand
ing on two horses.
| The other event not on the programme
was runaway Mr.. A. d Smiths horse
starting to go home alone and being dis
suaded from that idea only after he had
reached the gate and smashed the
carriage
The great event of the day was the 2. IA
race for trotters and the crowd was some
what surprised when Lynne Bel won it
in straight heats, many looking for six
or seven set-tos before the finish. 1t was
race which brought out several well
known horsemen who drove their own
fast ones. There was johnson with Fred
Wilkes, Golden with Caprice, Turner
with ]. M. D., Bither who drove Lynne
Bel to victory, O'Neil with Nosegay and
Charlie G, with Demare st. Brigham
drove N. Y. Central, Nash drove Vega
and Boone was up behind Nutshell
Lynne Bel has won several races this
year and in this contest dropped his
record from 2.14 IA to 2.11 1-2 Dick,
the winner of the 2.2S trotting race, is
a green horse, which never had mark.
He is by son of Kentucky Prince, his
dam being Delliah. Dan Robinson the
winner of the 2. 20 pace, is by Nuthurst,
dam Abdallah Mambrino.. He deserves
his luck as he has been shut out in three
races this season q His previous mark
was 2. Is 4. He chipped off the quarter
today.

THE LAW IS VALID.
County Classification Law Held
 to Be Good.
A Canal Decision of Interest to the People of the South
 Side.

From the Prescott Journal Miner.
 The supreme court adjourned today until the regular term in January next.
 They rendered two very important decisions this morning before adjourn. ing. One was in regard 10 the county classification law passed by the late leg islature in which salaries of the county officials were reduced. The court de. cided that the law is valid and that of. ficials will have to stand the reduction.
 The other important case was that of A. J. Chandler vs. Frank Austin. While the above is the title of the case as it appeared in the court calendars, the case is really that of the Con- solidated Canal company against the Tempe Canal company. The lower court decided it in favor of the plain. tiff, Austin, and Chandler appealed, hence became the plaintiff in error in the supreme court. The latter court reversed the decision of the lower court this morning, the decision being of particular importance in that the right of the use of water was involved. Plaintiff Austin, or the company he re- presented, had the priority of use of a certain amount of water. Chandler's company appropriated the use of the same water for mechanical purposes turning 1t into Austin's ditch below the point it was taken out by the latter, but above the point required for it's use. No loss of water was claimed by Aus. tin, but the claim was set up that It should be returned into the river again where it was taken out, and in deciding the case Judge Baker so held. The de. cision of the supreme court is to the effect that the water can be turned into the ditch at the point it is used as the plaintiff is not damaged thereby.
 The court also granted rehearing in the case of the REPUBLICAN Publishing company vs. Ed. s. Gill, before ad- journing.

TESTING THE COWS.
A Simple Method OF Determining the Per
formance of Each.

A Simple Method Of Determining the Per
formance of Each.
Test your cows" is the advice con
tinually given by dairymen and agri
cultural papers, and, like most advice
is needed least by those who need II
most. Many farmers, while admitting
it's wisdom, excuse themselves from
following it on the plea that they have
no testing apparatus. and therefore nc
means of knowing the respective per.
formances of the cows.
To such I would say that no scien.
tifc apparatus is necessary. The churn
is after all the most satisfactory kind
of tester. All that is necessary is to
keep n cows milk separate for a
couple of days. all the cream being
carefully removed. When the crean,
has ripened it should be churned, and
the scales will give the product, both
OF milk and butter. After each COW in
the herd has thus been tested, a com
parison of results will tell which are
the most profitable cows and which do
not pay for their keep. A little of this
kind of testing would cause many a
farmer to change his opinion of the
merits of the respective members of
his herd, and enable him to weed out
worthless stock. Try It. The test is a
simple one: it is easily applied, and the
results cannot be disputed. Try it.
and you will v regret the bother
have had in finding out the leak in
your profits.-C. d. Bell, in N. Y. World.
