Local THURMAN Would Not Match
Dina Watts

Jack Evans, the owner of Dina Watts,
and Lindendorfer, who controls Big
Dutch and Lou Watkins. the fast short
distance horses at Agricultural park,
had a hot colloquy in front of the
grandstand yesterday afternoon. Evans
had said that he would back his mare
for $1,000 against Big Dutch and Lou
Watkins or either for quarter-mile
match race.
Nov, Evans, if you want to bet on
your mare, here's the money said
Lindendorfer, and he shook $500 or $500
in bills in Evans face. ~I'll put up this
money as a forfeit with The Herald for
Big Dutch and Lou Watkins. VIII
race you for $500 a corner or with
either horse for 81 900 a side"
/. Dina Watts amt in condition"
stammered Evans. She's been out to
pasture and ] want to see what she
can do before I risk any money!
But as a matter Of fact, Evans told
The Herald that he would place for
felt just as soon as Big Dutch and Lou
Watkins reached here from Boise. Dina
Watts was in pasture then and he said
that he could get her in condition in
ten days.
"oh. you don't want to race said
Lindendorfer. You were just making
a talk. You wouldn't bet a cent on your
mare, for you're afraid of Big Dutch
and Lou Watkins
That made Evans mad, and he said
he would race just as soon as he found
out that Dina Watts was in good con-
dition.
Wei, then" said Lindendorfer.
here's a Herald man. Let's place
forfeit of $500, $3.50 for each horse, with
The Herald for race to come off in
two weeks"
But Evans would not consent to
that. He returned to the bubble that
he would do nothing until he had time
to try out Dina Watts.
The trouble with You is" said Lin
dendorfer, that you've got a good an
lmal. but you haven't nerve to back
her. Why don't you give her away to
some one who isn't afraid of his
sha6oW?"

Telegraphing to Mars.

The idea that we may possibly be
able sometime to communicate with the
planet Mars is perfectly sound one.
Those who laugh at it merely empha-
size stheir lack of knowledge of the
march of progress. Years ago man
with his family could not cross d
stream a hundred yards wide. He
could communicate with his fellow men
only so far as his voice would reach.
Medical science knew NO positive cure
for dyspepsia But we have progressed.
Steam crosses the ocean, electricity
communicates across the continent; and
