WOMEN DROVE THE SULKEY
A Trotting Race at Pittstield, Me.
That Marked a New Pleasure

PITTSFIELD, Me.-For the first time
in racing history a race under the ma
tional rules driven by ladies' carrying
weight and riding bicycle sulkeys in
boomers was trotted here Saturday
The idea was that of Colonel w. G. Nor
rill who owns and manages Union Driv-
ing park at this place. Over year ago
he began to lay plans for having such a
race. Ladies who had driven in wagon
races were asked to participate in this
race, several gladly consented and there
were twelve entries and four starters.
There was a crowd of more than 1000
people on the track, come from all Sec
tions of New England to see this event.
1t was the last race on the card, and 1t
was about 4:30 when the race was called.
AS the ladies come down with their
horses they received great round OF
applause from the grand stand. They
were called to the stand and drew posi-
tions after which the starter, A. H. Nor
rill of Danvers, Mass, quoted the rules
to them in regard to scoring and keeping
in position.
They drew as follows: Lady Franklin,
Mrs. F. N. Woodcock, pole; Pilot Morrill,,
Mrs. H. E. Meader, second; Maud Eliing-
wood, Miss Leota Elliott, third, and Lin
ME G., Mrs. S. E. Crosby, on the outside
Maud Ellingwood won the race.
All through the four heats the horses
kept up together and went along well
each of the drivers having complete con-
| troll of her horse. In speaking of the
race. Starter Morrill, said in the presence
Of the Journal representative: Il have
never started a field of horses in my life
where they came down for the word in
such good shape as did these ladies, and
they have set fair example for some OF
the drivers of the opposite sex, who make
practice of scoring all day.
Miss Elliott, the winner. was rendered
an informal reception at the Lancy
house in the evening, and fully 800 Of the
leading citizens Of the town called on
her. The other drivers were present and
were highly complimented by all.-New

THE PRINcEss NEEDS HIM
A Messenger From Belgium Looking
for q Chicago Dentist

From Liege. Belgium, to Chicago L. a
long journey to make for a set Of false
teeth, but that is what Prof. A. de Sem
.arders of the Liege university has done.
In justice to the professor it may be
SAID that the teeth are not for his per-
sonal use, but for a princess of the court
at Belgium.
/ Prof. Senarders arrived at the Audito-
lrium Annex hotel yesterday from New
YORK. He at once made inquiries for DR..
younger, who, he says, is the only man
In the world who can make the teeth that
Will exactly fit and suit the princess.
Her name. as nearly as could be learned
through the broken English of the pro-
fessor, is Princess Banjel. She is young
| and handsome. The professor says so,
and he is old, with fierce side whiskers,
and towers to the height of six feet five
inches. When he stands on the scales
his weight is recorded at 2S4 pounds
He is very anxious to find DR.. Younger.
He says he will not return to his native
country until he takes DR.. Younger back
with him.
One great drawback is that the pro-
fessor does not know the first name of
the DR.. Younger he is seeking. But he
says that the moment that the correct
DR.. Younger hears that he is seeking for
him that he will make himself known.
According to the story told by the pro-
fessor, through an interpreter, he was
called from his chair in the university
of the Liege by Princess Banjel and her
court The princess told her trouble,
saying that DR.. Younger now of Chi
cago. formerly student at Berlin, Ger
many, made her pair of teeth number
of years ago. She said that he was the
only man in the world who could make
the teeth for her, owing to an odd growth
of the gum around her teeth. In addi-
ton, the gums needed operating upon,
and Dr. Younger must come to Liege.
Prof. Senarders was requested to make
the trip to Chicago for the princess and
he at once consented. He will make a
tour of this country after he has found
the dentist.-Chicago Chronicle.

Women Against Women

A funny incident was witnessed on a
westbound Euclid car Monday morning.
1t was especially funny because it so hap
PLY illustrated one of the most marked
peculiarities of the gentler sex The car
was crowded, but on one seat were only
four ladies. They filled the seat pretty
full, but, of course, there was room for
one more. Near Sterling avenue, on
Prospect, two gaily dressed ladies' sig
nailed the motorman to let them aboard.
He stopped the car and the ladies', Both
handsome and quite distingue, looked
up and down the line of seats for a
vacant place. Did the fair ladies movs
along? Not a bit of it. They coolly
looked the couple over and held. their
places Then the pair concluded to
wait for the next car.
At the next stopping place an elderly
gentleman appeared on the crossing
ard stopped the car. The four ladies
saw him, and at once there was a SUIT
tering of skirts and a general pushring
along, and the elderly gentleman was
speedily accommodated with a seat

Hearts

Mans hearts an inn:
Its guests are for day,
Night falls, bugle calls,
Saddle and away.
Mans hearts an inn;
Its guests are for night.

Soon as morn is white.
But woman's hearts home;
It's master sitteth by.
Fire-light and hearth bright,
Forever and for aye.

TIMELY CONNECTIONS
Delicious Frozen Deserts and Novel
Ice Cream

This is the season for frozen desserts,
and the following suggestions are Of
fered by an accomplished housewife:
For vanilla custard ice cream, put one
quart of milk over the fire in a double
boiler. Beat the yolks of six eggs light
and add to them a generous pint of gran
ulated sugar. Stir in the beaten whites,
and add this mixture to the boiling milk.
Keep over the fire and stir until it be-
gins to thicken, but rot long enough to
boil or the eggs will curdle. Take from
the fire and stir in one pint Of cream.
Flavor with vanilla, and when perfectly
cold turn into freezer, pack and freeze.
A nice chocolate ice cream Is made by
placing one pint of milk over the fire 10
heat. Beat three eggs light and add to
them one pint of sugar. Stir these into
the boiling milk and cook until thick
ened. Meanwhile, with one and one half
ounces of scraped unsweetened choco-
late mix three tablespoonfuls of sugar
and two spoonfuls of water When these
ingredients are melted into a smooth,
glossy liquid, stir 1t into the hot milk
land egg mixture and keep stirring occa
sionally until it has cooled, then add one
quart of cream and freeze. Coffee ice
cream: To two cups of drip coffee add
one pint of sugar, and let this cook un til
it is sirup; then stir in the beaten yolks
of four eggs, remove from the fire, con-
tinue to stir and gradually add half 2
pint of cream When the mixture is
cold turn into a freezer with three pints
of cream and freeze.
+ + =
A delicious biscuit ice cream is made
thus To one cup of granulated sugar
add the same amount of water place
over the fire and cook together twenty
five minutes. Beat the whites of four
eggs very light and stiff and gradually
pour the boiling sirup over them, stir
ring all the while. Meanwhile have the
yolks of the eggs well beaten and add
them to the other ingredients. Place the
dish containing this mixture over the
fire in pan of boiling water and let it
cook barely ten minutes, stirring all
the time. Remove from the fire, and
while cooling stir occasionally. Flavor
with four tablespoonfuls of wine and
two of finely chopped nutmeats or
| crushed macaroons, whichever is de-
sired. When cold stir in two and one
half quarts of whipped and drained
cream. Wet the inside of mold with
little whipped cream and strew it
thickly with powdered macaroons. Turn
the mixture into the prepared mold US
ing care to see that the corners are filled
and there are no spaces left; fit on the
lid and bind with strip of larded mus
lin. Pack in plenty of ice and salt for
hours at least. When this mold is
turned out the cream will have a coat
ing of macaroon dust upon it. Candied
fruit may also be arranged in the bot
tom of the mold; alternate with blanched
almonds, and they make variety.-Chi-

TREASURE FROM ALASKA.
1t is Now Estimated That the steam
ship Portland Brought to Seattle
Between $I,5OO,OOO and ~, ,OOO,-
900 in Alaska Gold.

Seattle, Wash, July 19.-The amount
OF treasure brought down from Alaska by
the steamship Portland, is now placed at
$l,5o0,0o0, and there is good reason to
believe that it was nearer $2,O0O,OOO.
Each man was required to place his
gold in the ships safe, but many miners
secreted their dust in blankets aud lug
gage, which we're taken either to their
state rooms, or thrown carelessly about
the ship.
Clarence j. Berry, one of tine Klondyke
kings, brought down ut least $4,000 in
nuggets, of which the Portland had no
record. Information comes from Juneau
that several rich strikes have recently
been made in the neighborhood of "Forty
Mile camp" 1t has been christened
Minute Greek, and is pannipg out 1922
day to a man. Another discovery on
American creek, so miles below "Forty
Mile camp" is said to be paying well, and
a great many men have fooked there dur
ing the past few weeks. Pans run from
$40 to $18.

MINERS ON THE MARCH.
The Strikers In Pennsylvania Organ
ize, and Headed by IA Brass Band
March from Town to Town In
viting sympathy.

Canonsburg, Pa, July 19.-About 500
striking miners from the Millers run dis
trict, passed through town today, headed
by brass band and a drum corp. A
halt was made at the mines of the Canons,
burg Coal company, where they were met
by armed deputies, and ordered to keep
off the company's property. They sent a
committee to the mines, to gather to-
gether the miners. The miners did not
appear to be in sympathy with the strik-
ers, and but very small number were
induced to come out. After holding a
meeting here, the strikers moved up the
valley to the mines of Cook & Sons,
where deputies heavily armed, ordered
them to keep off the company's property.
The operators are paying So cents and
say their men have no reason for strik-
ing except through fear of violence.

SUGAR BEETS 4 IRRIGATION
The southwest and Especially New
Mexico Possess Many Advantages
and Will Become Great sugar
Producing Sections,

Prof. H. M. Wiley, who has become we'll
known in connection with experiments in
sugar beet culture, wrote an exceedingly
interesting and valuable government bull
letin recently in regard to the sugar beet.
In the course of this pamphlet he speaks
IN particular about the production of
sugar beets in the southwest on irrigated
lands, and it Is evident that he is some
thing OF an enthusiast concerning possi-
bllitles in that direction.
He says: 'While the arid area on which
beets can be grown without irrigation is
probably confined almost exclusively to
the coast valleys of California, the sue.
cessful commercial production of sugar
beets in Utah and New Mexico has opened
up new and extensive field for the ex-
tension of the sugar industry over large
areas suited to irrigation in the western
and southwestern regions of the United
States. 1t is certain now that Colorado.
Utah, New Mexico, Idaho and Arizona
may become great sugar producing states,
not excluding other areas in the arid
region. California has already set the
pace of progress, and the other arid states
will not be slow to follow"
He says further that the northern parts
of the eastern and middle states and
Washington and Oregon have at least an
equal chance in competition with Ger
many and France in the production of
sugar from beets. But "the irriQable
parts of the great southwest, it is be.
lieved have advantages of soil and climate
which will enable them to enter into COM
petition even with the Hawaiian islands
and Cuba"
From this last remark one may gather
how confident Professor Wiley is that
ultimately Colorado aud other parts of
the southwest will become great source
of sugar production. The fact that he
thinks climate and soil present here con-
1ltions admitting of competition with
Cuba and the Hawiian islands should 90
'ar to remove the fears of those who op-
pose the annexation of Hawaii on the
ground that 1t would kill the growing but
infant industry of sugar production from
oeets in the far west
The fact that Professor Wiley has ex-
pressed SO favorable an opinion in re-
yard to the practicability of sugar beet
culture in this and other parts of the arid
eglon should encourage and stimulate
capitalists to provide money to establish
he industry. 1t means great deal for
he far west. For the United States as a
whole to pay tribute to the arid region
n the purchase of sugar would go far to
elevate this part of the Union in the est-
nation of the whole world, and the incl
lental benefits which would flow from
hat are hardly to be estimated with any
'retense to accuracy.-Denver Republi-

LAST OBSTACLE REMOVED.
The Rio del Colorado Land Grant Liti.
cation settled, and Red River Has
Taken New Lease OF Life.

Special Correspondence New Mexican.
Red River, N. NJ, July H.-With the
withdrawal of the appeal of the Rio del
Colorado land grant case, which was af-
footed by committee sent by the Min
ers' bureau to treat with the claimants of
the grant, Red River has taken on new
life. The last obstacle to the develop
ment of the district has been removed
and people are again focking in as they
did two months ago. Hotels and board
ing houses are overflowing and the hills
are full of new arrivals eagerly searching
for claims.
The Galveston group will resume work
before the end of the present week, hav-
ing been closed down because of the un-
certainty of title pending the grant ap-
peal, and large force of men has been
put in the Snow Storm up Mallett gulch,
and development work will continue un.
til snow drives the men out.
Water in the 20O-foot shaft has forced a
suspension of operations in the Midnight,
but large steam pump is on the way
from Denver, and that difficulty will soon
be overcome.
A. w. Phipps & 90. are fast turning the
Rook of Ages into paying property.
mill run at the Red River smelter on ore
from this mine gave returns of $S.45 per
ton, while the assays run from Sis to $50.
r. A. Strain recently made an assay for
the Black Copper, which resulted in
of $2,26O. This property last
winter gave the enormous assay of over
100000 per ton.
The Long Canon Placer company near
Amizette, has resumed work with two
shifts of men, and the force is to be
largely increased.
The lower Red River country is also on
the move and some fine showings of
gslena are made, which give results up to
So per cent in lead, 25 ounces silver, and
\ small quantity of gold to the ton.
Paying gold mines are also found in
Caberesto, Lower Red and Greed canons,
Pioneer and Mallett gulches.
Two active shippers have been de.
veloped on Bitter Greek, one vein in an
35-foot tunnel is at least six feet wide
with three-inoh streak Of quartz of an |
average value better than $lO0 per ton.
Along Red River for seven miles are
Of great value, and in course
If time number OF mines will be de
veloped which will produce good tonnage
of high grade smelling ores which will
,ompare favorably with the small but
Itch seams found at Cripple Greek.

THE STRIKE SITUATION.
1t Promises to Grow Interesting
About the Last Of This Week.

Pittsburg, July 19.-Unless the strike
leaders are able to get the West Virginia
diggers out early this week the local
strike situation promises to grow very
interesting about the last of this week,
and come to crisis next Monday morn
ing. Several local operators have an
nounced that they are tired of seeing
their contracts get away from them, and
that the mines now supplying their trade
must be stopped, or their own mines be
put into operation. Unless Pittsburg
is able to shut down the West Virginia
mines, it is probable the strike will be
broken before there is chance to COM
plete the uniformity arrangement. Should
any big mines now idle be put into opera
tion, majority of the other diggers in
the district would return to work at onoe.
A part of the operators plan, is to pay
the miners 70 or even rs cents if neces-
sary to get them to work.

PLEASURE RESORT BURNED.
The Famous BrOadmOOr Casino
Colorado Springs Costing $lOO,OOO
Burned to the GrOund This
Morning.

Colorado Springs, Colo, July 19.-The
famous Broadmoor casino, the 100000
pleasure resort of Colorado Springs, was
burned to the ground this morning.
Flames we're discovered about O'Clock
in the boiler room. There was no water
available, and in ten minutes all hopes of
saving the structure were given up, and
efforts directed toward saving the Hotel
Broadmoor adjoining. This was saved
through the timely assistance of U. 8.
soldiers camped at Brosdmoor. The loss
will be 100000 to the Broadmoor Land
q improvement company, and $4,000
to Happier & Miller of Denver, the
lessees. There is scarcely any insurance.
1t is doubtful if the resort will be rebuilt.
