TRACK RECORDS BROKEN

TRACK RECORDS BROKEN

New York. July 16.-For the second time
| this year Jimmy Michael, the once irwin
| chile paced bicyclst, was forced TO drink
! the bitter cup of defeat. His old school
mate in Wales, Tom Linton, was the one
10 lower Alichaers colors today and at
! the same time he broke the worlds record
for the distance. Linton accomplished
the feat in a twenty-mile paced race at
Manhattan Beach in the presence of 49,
! 900 people. For four miles it was a pref
| ~ race, Michael leading by few yards.
Suddenly MichaePs tire collapsed. Natu-
rally, Linton pursued him, and after rid
ing two laps of the fifth mile, Michael
stopped and pedalled slowly TO his cor
ner, where he changed his damaged wheel
for "a new one. In the meantime Linton
kept going like the wind, and before Mich
ael came back on the track, was one mile
ahead.
When Michael left the track he was
greeted with a storm OF Kisses. 1t certain
Iy appeared like case of quit, as Michael
could have changed his wheel and re-
sumed his place behind his pace-makers
with scarcely the loss of half lap, had
he tried to do SO. Michael met with an
other slight drawback on entering his
tenth mile, when his pacing team broke
the chain. After Michael let up there
was little interest in the race outside Of
Linton's effort to reduce the record. Al
though he tried hard he could add no fig
ures until the fifteenth mile, when he
started in by clipping l 5 seconds off the
record.
He continued ahead of the record mile
until the finish, breaking the twenty-mile
record by exactly seven seconds. He
could have made better time had he not
lost his pace-makers while rounding for
the last lap.
Not content with the result, Michael at
once challenged Linton for another race
at % miles. Linton accepted and the
race will be run at Manhattan Beach
track on Saturday next.

GOODRICH'S GREAT RECORD.
Chicago, July 1.-THE worlds records
We're broken today at Washington Park,
and those at distances that are generally
supposed TO bring out class. speed and
stamina in a race horse.
Goodrich. the derby colt belonging to
Laudeman, of Cincinnati, ran 4 mile and
one-half in the great western handicap
in 2:30l4. the fastest time ever made by
any horse for the distance
The victory of Goodrich was a surprise
TO the crowd, which had placed almost
every horse but the right one. The st.
Louis winner, Whater Lon, was freely
played. Candaleria was the extreme out
slider at 10 to ?. Opening at to !, Good
rich's price steadily fell until at post
time to l was about the best obtainable.
Bing Binger and Mortefonso also went 10
the post well played.
Bing-Binger led at the start, there be-
ing no change until the half-mile was
run. At the head OF the stretch there
was a wild scramble for position. Whater
Lou showing the way by a half length.
Goodrich second and Bling Bing third. As
the end OF the grand stand was reached
Goodrich, by a supreme effort, passed
Whater Lou and won by all of five
lengths. Whater Lou beat Mortefonso by
a head for second place. Blng Bing and
Calendaria were not factors in the
stretch.
The littls son Of Tenny ran a mile and
a quarter in 2:o4l5. also the fastest time
ever made for that distance around a CIR
cular course
In addition to these two track records
were tied. Xiliar ran five and one-half
furiorss in 1:05s4. and Pinkerton's recent
purchase. Candelsria, ran SIX furlongs IN
1.43ia, both equal 20 anything ever done

SPORTY ITErS.

The managers of the local athletic
clubs are sorry that the boxing game has
received such a setback as was given it
by the fake fight between Corbett and
Sharkey, as they were making arrange
ments to give some fine contests during
the winter.
Manager Sanders, of the Kentucky
Athletic Club, says that Tim Hurst has
succeeded in matching Joe Walcott and
Jim Watts for December 16, and Tommy
Hogan and Tommy White for the last
week in December.
Andy Mulligan, manager of the Louis
vile Athletic Club, is endeavoring to
bring Charles Lawler and Jim Watts
together, with Tommy McQuaid and
"Freckles" O'Brien as preliminary.
Tommy Ryan, of Syracuse, is anxious
to get a match with Dan Creedon.
Ryan's ambition is to be champion of the
middle-weight class. He offers to fight
Creedon at the middle-weight limit, the
contest to take place before the club
offering the largest purse. Ryan had
promised to meet Dick O'Brien, but as
the latter was defeated by Creedon, he
will give Creedon first chance and meet
O'Brien later on.
Casper Leon and Jimmy Barry fought
six rounds to draw last Monday night.
Barry had the advantage on points, but
under the agreement, both being on their
feet at the end, Referee Hogan had no
alternative but to call the fight draw.
Barry did most of the leading, and,
though he landed some telling blows,
Leon was fresh at the finish.
Manager Whitney, of the Commercial
Club of St. Louis, has offered a purse of
$4,000 for the Mccoy Maher contest,
which was to have taken place before the
Greater New York Athletic Club, of
Coney Island, on December II.
Kid Mccoy is now posing as prophet.
He says: "There will be three new cham
pions in 1900 Oscar Gardner will be the
feather-weight champion, Frank Earne
will be the lightweight champion and
will be the heavyweight champion. Just
put that down and see how near will be
to it." Much confidence can not be put
in McCoy's prediction, as he said Corbett
would win easily from Sharkey.

Latest Advices Indicate Their
Arrival Home by Monday
Week.
Arrangements Being Perfected
to Give the Boys a Royal
Welcome.
IRISH SOCIETIES WILL TAKE PART

The arrangements for the welcome
home of the Louisville Legion are almost
completed, the committee having the
matter in charge having made the most
gratifying progress. Three days have
been set apart for the big demonstration,
December 6, and 8, and it promises to
eclipse anything of like character ever
before undertaken in this part of the
country.
Late dispatches state that yellow fever
has developed on the transport that was
to bring the soldiers home, which might
delay their departure somewhat, but it is
hoped they will be here on the days men,
toned above.
A mammoth triumphal arch will be
erected on Jefferson street, extending
from the Courthouse to the Willard
Hotel, and will be marvel of beauty.
In the center will be placed mammoth
golden eagle, which will be at least
eighteen feet from tip to tip of its wings.
The arch will be about sixty feet broad,
and will be illuminated with | 900 incan-
descent globes representing the national
colors, and when lighted will present an
enchanting appearance. In addition to
this there will be other Examinations,
both public and private, and all the
merchants will decorate their places of
business.
The parade promises to be the most
magnificent ever witnessed in Louisville,
and will be participated in by all our
military and civic organizations. Among
those who will turn out in large numbers
are the Hibernian Knights and Mackin
Council and several branches of the
Catholic Knights.
Many of the prominent heads of the
War Department and army officers have
been invited and are expected to be here
at that time, and Gov. Bradley and staff
have also been extended an invitation to
take a prominent part. The gathering
promises to be a notable one, and it is
not necessary to suggest to our citizens
to do anything more than is now being
done.
The celebration will be continued for
three days, and the complete programme
and all the details will be found in our
next issue

IRELAND'S LINEN INDUSTRY.

The decline of the linen industry in
Ireland has for long been the subject of
regret to all who are interested in the
material welfare of the country, and at
the present time energetic efforts are be-
ing put forward to revive what was once
one of the most fruitful sources of Irish
wealth. The most earnest, as we'll as the
most successful, efforts in this direction
are being made by the good Sisters of
Charity in many towns; and, indeed, the
converts of the country are all doing ex-
cellent work to bring back some of the
prosperity which has been lost to the peo-
pie. The most remarkable instance of
the untiring zeal and devotion of the
good Sisters is supplied in the case of
Foxford, County Mayo. Here the condi-
tons of life which existed have been alb
solutely changed, and where there was
but short time ago poverty and wretch
edness there is now contentment and
happiness. This has all been brought
about through the practical common
sense and zeal of Mother Morrogh Ber-
nard and the ladies who are associated
with her. In Skibbereen equally excel
lent work is being done by the Sisters
under the guidance of Mother De Sales,
who received her first two hand-looms
from the late Sir William Ewart, of Bel
fast. There are many still living in the
south of Ireland who can carry their
minds back to the time when there was a
thriving linen industry all through the
southern counties. That time, unfortun-
ately, has passed, and the crack of the
busy loom is no longer heard in the homes
of the peasantry; but it will not be the
fault of the convent workers if all this is
not speedily changed for the better.
Apart, however, from the hopeful indi-
cations afforded by the splendid work of
the Sisters, there is the alarming fact that
in ten years the acreage under fax in
Ireland has decreased from 100, 900 acres
to "a, 2l5 in the present year. It is plain
that if something is not done in the near
future the linen industry is bound to dis
appear as completely from the north as it
did from the south. Ireland has, I'M
doubtedly, been worsted in the COMPETE
ton with other countries; but, in this
connection, it must be borne in mind
that in Belgium the government takes a
lively interest in the prosperity of the in
dustry, whereas in Ireland the farmer has
still to depend upon the unscientiic
treatment which obtained many years
ago. There is every reason to believe
that if the Irish fax grower received the
same amount of encouragement from the
government as the Belgian farmer more
satisfactory condition of things would in
short time prevail. The situation
meanwhile, may be almost described as
desperate.

CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE.

Let the President take either horn of
the dilemma and his policy of what he
himself has called criminal aggression"
fails. Let him open the door to the
world and he antagonizes American
labor. Let him consider the Philippines
part of the United States, and therefore
entitled under the Constitution to free
trade with, as part of, the United States,
and its door closed except through the
high tariff to all other nations, and he
antagonizes the whole of Europe and has
war upon his hands to a certainty-this
time no weak Spain to deal with, but the
overwhelming naval power of Europe.
Be of good cheer! The American peo-
pie have always decided rightly in great
crises. The imperialistic policy has not
been properly discussed because the po-
sition of the President and the Govern
ment is not yet known, but the President
has to come forward and decide the ques-
ton have indicated.
This will be the death blow of impe-
rialism either way he decides.
The Republic will escape the threat
ened danger and hold fast to the policy
of the fathers, which has made it the
most prosperous nation the world ever
saw and brought the industrial suprem-
acy of the world within its grasp under
the aegis of peace and security-the one
industrial nation free from the unceasing
danger of wars and rumors of war which
keep every shipyard, every armor plant,
every gun factory in the world busy night
and day, Saturdays and Sundays, prepar-
ing engines for the coming struggle be-
tween the nations of Europe.

MORE GOOD WORK.

Several days ago Mrs. Emma Hadley,
residing ON Fourth avenue, was robbed Of
money and some jewelry by John Shell
ton, negro who had been employed as a
house boy. The matter was reported to
Chief Sullivan, who at once put his men
to work on the case. The thief left the
city within few hours after the robbery,
but it did not take the local force long to
locate him in Nashville, where they had
him arrested and returned to this city
This is only another evidence of the eff
cheney of Chief Sullivan and his men.
