with Quarter M arch fourth. At the
half the pace became too warm fol-
Benton M, who broke and dropped back.
Germaine and Token were now alone
in the lead, the latter horse only head
behind che former. Quarter March now
began to come up from the bunch and
at the last turn into the stretch was neck
and neck with the other horses. Token
broke soon after they turned into the
stretch and though she quickly recovered
herself she lost a length by the hitch.
Quarter March then got ON his tip toei
for second and gave Germaine the heat
by half length. Token was second and
| Quarter March third.
| In the fifth heat new factor came on
for try at the first money and gave
| Quarter March, who was looking for an
easy thing with Token ami Germ aine,
a surprise party. This factor was Chance
who passed the heat winners at the halt
and after one of the hottest finishes Of
the day won out by half a length with
Quarter March second.
In the sixth heat there were only four
heat winners to start, the rest Of the field
being ruled out. Chance WAS not head
ed for the drive, and although the other
three fast ones stuck. to him like bur
docks he won out by neck.
In the seventh heat Chancs won the
race fairly and by three Of the hottest
finishes Of the week.

2.as TROT.
The 2.23 trot was interesting to the
big crowd on account of the presence
of Eddie B, Lewiston horse, among the
starters. Owing to the splitting up of
the heats the race was not finished and
went over until today, Eddie B having
two heats to his credit and Maple Val
ley one.
Tho first two heats went to Eddie B.
with little trouble, but In the third he
ran mp against Maple Valley who, after
a most exciting finish, won by head.
Maple Valley carried nearly all Of the
money and sold a favorite, although the
Lewiston horse had many hackers
among the Maine men. The summary:

The srorm at nrun.x.icL. Ga.

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. Ill. NJ. Mer-
rill, of the Atlanta Telephone Co.,
reached Atlanta late Tuesday night
from Brunswick, and stated that the
city of Brunswick is badly damaged.
and that three big vessels were sunk
in the Brunswick harbor. The latter
were blown away from their moorings.
The waves of the sea and the wind de-
stroyed much of Brunswick's shipping
interests.
MIR. Merrill says that the famous old
gunboat. the Monitor, was blown away
from her pier, and that she vas float
ing helplessly in the harbor, in danger
Of going to the bottom.
Telegraphic communication was re-
stored with Brunswick at / a. m, and
authentic news of the hurricane is be-
ing received.
Four persons were killed outright
in Brunswick. as follows:
William Daniels
Abel Davis.
John Jefferson and babe.
A careful estimate places the dam
age at $500. 900. Many persons were
dangerously injured.
One lady was killed at Everett, a
small station a few miles from Bruins
wick.
The railroad tracks were INSTRUCTED
by trees and poles and the only train
which came through from Brunswick
was preceded by n wrecking train and
crew for a distance of 20 miles.

of an effort on the part of an Armenian

was in the act of throwing the bombs

Nearly every telegraph wire out OF

news is coming tn tile Morning News
from many points in Georgia and Flor

The storm appears to have struck
land at Tampa and swept northward
to Savannah. thence jumping on To
the north. All the correspondents
agree that the velocity of the wind
was unusually high, ever for a cy-
clone, but its duration at each place was
short-about an hour. Had the storm
been long continued. everything in its
path would have been levelled 10 the
ground. and the loss of life must have
been heavy. The property loss is es-
timated at between $3.50. 900 and $780,
900. The loss of life is -four. SO far az

CEDAR KEYS SWEPT AWAY,
And a Wide Furrow OF Devastation
Flowed Through Florida.

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. la special
from Jacksonville, Fla, TO the Consti-
tuition says:
The West Indian hurricane, which
entered Florida at Cedar Keys yester-
day morning and swept through the
southern part in a northeasterly di-
rection, left death and destruction in
its path. Owing to the prostration of
telegraph wires and the delay of trains
due TO washouts, only meager reports
have been received. And yet, meager
as those reports are, they show that
over twenty towns and villages have
been wrecked, and that forty or fifty
persons have been killed, while proba.
bly, twice as many more received
wounds more or less serious.
About four o'clock in the morning
the hurricane. which bad been churn-
ing the gulf, left the water and
swooped down upon Cedar Keys, a
vwn Of 1900 inhabitants, about one
hundred miles southwest Of Jackson.
Vile.
Thirty-six hours have elapsed since
the storm struck Cedar Keys, but not
one word has been received directly
from that place as to the damage lone
or the number of lives lost. No trains
have been able to reach there because
the tracks are covered with heavytim
ber.
The only report from Cedar kcyes
ONE by way of Gainesville, so miles
northeast of the gulf town. and is TO
the effect that Cedar Keys has been
swept away, and many persons killed
and wounded This report reached
Gainesville by courier from Williston,
which is 70 miles north of Cedar KEYS
The report is hardly exaggerated. ms
Cedar Keys was directly in the path Of
the hurricane, and received its full
force as it leaped raging from the
gulf.
After demolishing Cedar Keys the
storm, moving in a northeasterly di-
rection, struck Williston. a village OF
400 Inhabitants. At that place IL
houses were wrecked, one person
killed and 10 wounded, some, il il
feared. fatally.
Near Williston is a large turpentine
farm, on which many state convicts
are employed. Twenty of these con
victs were huddled in n cabin, acrosl
which the storm blew a great tree

exactly three words the last of which was

Major Mckinley has already II ade his

so that there is little now left undune
except the whole country. There is not
a man on the three continents except ore
who hasn't heard Of sixteen to one in some

with all his failures, is none the less

out three years ago on a gold and salt
pork basis. DR.. Nansen had all the
