RACE SEASON EAST
THE EVENTS OF THE LEGITIMATE
YEAR INAUGURATED AT WASH
INGTON.
BETTING WAS BY THE NOD.
1T WAS EASY TO GET MONEY ON
WHEN YOU KNEW
HOW.
BETTING WAS BY THE NOD
ALL BowLED OVER.
Weather, Crowd and Racing Were
Good, but First Choice Horses
Were Out of 1t.

WASHINGTON, April 1s.--The season of
legitimate racing in the East was inaugurated
under auspicious circumstances at the Ben
nings track this afternoon. The weather, the
track, the attendance and the racing itself
could not have been better. The grounds
which have been idle for the past two years
have been improved until they equal in at
tractiveness any of the smaller courses in
the country. The spectators included many
of the prominent officials of the city and the
cream of the social circles, while from New
York and other Eastern points, came those
whose names are always mentioned when
clean, honest, high-clsss racing is discussed.
There was no lack of betting, and every one
had the chance to lay his money, although
no gambling paraphernalia was in sight, the
system Of betting by the nod carried out in
the East last season, being In vogue.
The steeple chase was well jumped, but
Richards, the favorite, broke down at the
jump after the water when he seemed to
have the race at his mercy. Favorites were
consecutively bowled over, not first choice
winning. The Blue and Gray handicap was
won easily, by Paladin. The other winners
were Premier, Her Own, Brisk and Mars
Chan. Summaries:
First race, five furlongs-Premier won, Hal
ton second, Mangrove third; time l. 02 Sec

1.-The appalling ravages of lung
troubles and consumption in this ooun-
try, continued from year to year, present
showing before which all lovers of hu-
manity must stand aghast.
Lung troubles lead to consumption,
loss. of flesh, and wasting conditions.
OF all the diseases which afflict the
human race, consumption is the most
fatal. Its ravages are by no means con-
fined to the lungs alone. It attacks, in
fact, almost every part of the body
Last year, as proven by the official
records at Washington, over a63, 900 died
from consumption in the United States
representing an average of 5000 every
week, and 700 every day; waste of life
that seems incredible.
More than four-ffths of this number
might to-day be living, had they but
known wherein restoration lay, and made
timely use of the only infallible remedies
that have thus far been discovered.

SHUT OUT THE HAwkEYEs.
MiIlers show the Effects of Weeks
Training.

Special to the Globe.
DES MONIES, To-, April 1S.-Minneapolis
shut Des Moines out today by score of 8
TO 0. The day was raw. This, added to rain
in the morning, reduced the crowd to 300.
Minneapolis showed the result of training
which was lacking in their former visit here.
The game was a pitchers battle. 1t was
devoid of pretty plays, with the exception of a
beautiful single-handed stop of liner by
Hickey, on third. from werden's bat. The
game was lacking in features. Hutchinson
pitched the first inning and Carney finished
the game for Minneapolis. Hutchinson was
feeling good and struck an old-time gait.
Wilmot thought it wise not to work him too
hard and let Carney do part of the work
For Des Moines, Sonier and Andrews did the
twirling, and made good records before the
Minneapolis old stagers, holding them down
to five hits, while Des Moines secured four.
Minneapolis made two of her runs in the
first inning. Wilmot got to first on an error
by Hickey. Werden gothic single, which ad-
vanced Wimot to third. Werden stole second
and Frank brought them both in. The single
other run was earned in the sixth by good
hard playing. Des Moines played good
game making only two errors while the
same number was charged up to the visitors.
But the home batters could not bunch their
few hits or get enough errors together to
make the circuit of the bases 1t was not
exciting, but it was good, hard ball playing.

be useless so far as immediate benefit 3

be useless so far as immediate benefit "a
concerned. There are many organic and
functional affections which would battle
the modern physician to cure or even
relieve, but for the means which have
been placed at his disposal by manufac-
turing chemists. These latter are class
of men deserving the full confidence and
patronage of the medical profession.
They have worked increasingly with no
certainty of remuneration. To carry out
their work thoroughly it has been neces-
sary for them to invest thousands and
hundreds of, thousands of dollars for
manufacturing and experimental plants,
to say nothing of the employment, at
high salaries, of staff of expert chem
lists, and now it is the duty of the medi-
cal profession, in whose interests these
men have worked, to advance such sup
port as is possible, and at the same time
consistent. 1t Is the duty of physicians,
both from the standpoint of science and
relief of human suffering, to thoroughly
investigate such substances and app1i-
ances as are from time to time placed at
their disposal. Imagine the CONSERVATION
in the ranks of the medical profession
should manufacturing chemists as awhole
withdraw the support which they for
years have lavished upon the medical
fraternity.
Could the mechanical world dispense
with electricity or steam Could the
medical profession dispense with the dis
coveries and products of manufacturing
chemists7 The comparison is an equal
one. What steam and electricity are to
the mechanical world, so the various dis
coveries of the manufacturing chemists
are to the medical profession. And yet
these chemists are as modest as they are
scientific. They do not come forward
and say: " 1t is our efforts which have
done much to advance modern therapeu-
tics to their present scientific standard"
Yet who could deny them should they
advance such an assertion.
