PROMISES TO BE THE GREATEST
Great Interest Being Taken I'm the
Match Race Between PatcheD
and Star Pointer.

Chicago, Aug. 23.-People who go To
Washington park this afternoon are
likely to see the greatest pacing race
ever witnessed in the world. From all
indications the two great PAGERS will be
at their best, for they are both seasoned
and as near as human knowledge can
tell are on feather edge. The owners OF
both Star Pointer and Joe Patchen ex-
press themselves satisfied with the Con
dition OF their horses and both are con-
fdent OF winning. The owner OF Star
Pointer said If his horse was beaten in
the race today he expected to see the
timers hang out the two minute sign
for the first time In the history of har-
ness horse racing. The owner of Patch
en- said 1t would not surprise him to see
the two minute mark reached under ia
vorable conditions of track n wealth
err. Outside Of the respective stable OF
pacing champions the opinion prevails
that Pointer will win the race by a small
margin, although 1t is generally conced-
ed hi Patchen will win one hea I
Pointer has already beaten Patchen
twice and lost once. Both are thought
TO be better than ever before and they
are so nearly equal that a mere trife
will decide the ownership Of a 1900
purse. A few pools sold on the race last
night with Pointer as the favorite at
nearly two to one.

DIDN'T PUSH IT OVER.
A Crank Resists Temptation Mt the Wash.

Washington is the Mecca of cranks,
and the monument seems TO be their
principal shrine. Even the white house
is not so attractive to them as the great
white shaft. II can be seen for miles
around and seems to attract cranks rs a
candle does moths. The watchmen have
become accustomed TO the gentry, and
as long as they appear to be quiet and
well disposed, usually deal gently with
them, however wild their ideas. One
mar they tell Of declared that the monu-
ment was built of human skulls and
bones and persisted in pointing out the
faces of friends in the stones; but per-
haps the oldest specimen on record
happened down there the other day.
When the Waterman first observed
him he was leaning heavily against the
shaft, apparently pushing with all his
might-at least. be would push for a
while, and then he would walk around
to the other side, apparently to see if
there were any people there. The
Waterman watched this proceeding for
a while and then accosted him:
Beg pardon; you arn't going to push

the man; then. with immense dignity,

Waterman, sizing up the man, who was
about b feet D and not very muscular.

good deal of him. Then it cost the
government a good deal of money and
took a good many years to build this
monument, and a good many people
would consider it unkind of you to de-
stroy it. Take me. for instance, l ain

would throw me out of a job. Besides
you might hurt somebody"
No. | was very careful to look on

@But perhaps you think | can't do itP
Now you just look up and see me shake

The Waterman was agreeable. Now,
it is a fact that when one stands directly
at the base of the monument it appears
To be topping over. This is, of course,
an optical delusion, caused by the clouds
moving overhead; but it impressed tue
crank with his power.
Did you see me shake it?' he in
quired ~triumphantly.
Yes" responded the Waterman,
solemnly, "but | wouldn't do so any

tons even if you didn't push it over.
Besides, here a crowd of people.

ROYALTY WELCOMED IN DUBLIN
Duke and Duchess Of York Given
Very Cordial Recep-
ton.

Dublin. Aug. 21.-The duke and duch-
ess OF York arrived at kingstown at .
o'clock yesterday morning and were ac-
corded an enthusiastic reception. Re
plying to an address, the duke said he
hoped to become better acquainted with
the people and with the beautiful seem
cry Of Ireland.
The ovation was repeated upon the ar
rival OF the duke and duchess in Dublin.
There was an imposing military process
sion and on all sides were to be seen
union jacks with the green flag Of old
Ireland.
The duke and duchess were received
at the castle by Earl Cadogan, the lord
lieutenant Of Ireland. and by Countess
Cadogan as a royal salute was fired by
the battery OF artillery In Phoenix park.
after which the earl and countess. with
the staff Of the lord lieutenant. joined
the procession and escorted the royal
visitors to the vice-regal lodge, where
the guard Of honor was furnished by the
royal Irish constabulary.
The tone OF the Irish nationalist news
papers Is respectful. They point out
that Ireland has no quarrel with the
duke and duchess of York. but, they
add, the courtesy extended to them must
not be interpreted as meaning that the
Irish are contented with their present
condition.
