CHANGE IN STAKES.
At Rigby Next Season There WEI Be Two
stake and Two Purse Races.

Manager Farnham of the Rigby track was
in town Saturday and says that there will
be some changes made in the plan OF the
stakes for next season. Instead of having
one meeting composed entirely of stakes
the number will be reduced so as to allow
of two stake and two purse races each day
of the stake meeting, which is always the
fall meeting.
The stakes will close at different times so
as to give the breeders better chance in
placing their horses, and few of them will
be after the plan of the Pennsylvania, with
horses not named until shortly before the
stake is to be decided.
From conversation with leading horsemen
he thinks this plan will be popular with the
rank and file, but he would like to have the
subject discussed by the horse owners
through the newspapers. He thinks that
such an expression of opinion would work
to the advantage of the New England track
managers. A meeting of the track managers
will soon be held and circuit formed that
will not clash. Mr. Farnham claims the fol-
lowing dates for next season: June s-11.

Fair), September ITO, October 5-s.

YOUR MONEY OR YOUR LIFE.
The Demand Made of Young wom., IN
EastpOrt.

The residents of the north end of Eaxt-
port weru startled early Friday evening
by the report that bold burglary and
assault had been made and that the mar
petrstor WAS not known. City Marshal
Murphy was soon on the scene and a
crowd followed. The particulars were
soon learned Miss Mary Mcdonald. a
we'll known young lady here has bean
staying with her sister, Mrs. John
wallace at North End, and shortly after
seven O'clock Friday evening, being
alone. was reclining on sofa reading.
with lamp at her back. Without warn
Ing the light was quickly turned out,
and then. the voice of man said, "you
ara alone" Miss Mcdonald was
thoroughly frightened but did not deny
it, "Then give me your money or l'll
kill you," the man gsuffiy said.
Miss Mcdonald struck at the window
name near to break it and give the alarm,
when the intruder rushed to her side and
grasped her by the hair In his hand he
hold an open knife and with on outcry
for help the young lady tainted on the
sofa.
AS the house was not far from Others,
her cry attracted the attention of some
nsishbors who came in. After lighting
the lamp, Miss Mcdonald was seen and
n few minutes later she had recovered
consciousness, but DR.. DR.. Byron had
been sent for. The burglar had out a
lnrae bunch of hair from her head be-
fore the arrival Of help and had escaped
as ,..ysterious as he came. A valuable
ring was missing, but was found later,
broken.
Who the sneak thief was the young
lady does not know, although she is sure
he is large sized man, as.he was very
close to her before she tainted. The
police are Investigating the affair which
is the first of the kind in years.
Two other houses were entered the
same night in different part Of the oity
and as few tramps we're seen on the
back streets during the day, extra watch
men will be added for better protection
for the citizens.
