RACING ASSOCIATION
Being Organized to Use Washington
Park.-Ndmes Already Secured,

Washington Park, which is now
standing idle, will In ell probability be
put to some use in the near future.
Some time ago an attempt was made to
organize racing association to take
charge of the park, but the work OF Or
gsnizstion was delayed by circum-
stances that prevented the promoters
from giving it their attention. The
idea was not abandoned, however, and
yesterday afternoon DIR. T. II. Thatcher
and Richard Keays began actively the
work of organization. They were out
about two hours with a subscription list
and secured twenty-five names.
Everyone spoken to expressed himself
as being heartily in favor OF the scheme
and many promised to sign the list who
did not do so yesterday.
A permanent association is to be or -
gsnized with officers and laws for it's
government. IL is proposed to arrange
with the council for the manaReme
of the track and to hold annual or semi
annual meets, special races, and such
attractions as can be secured.
The list will be taken out again this
afternoon and additional names secur-
ed. Following is the membership
agreement and list:
1--WE, the undersigned, agree to pay
the sum of 81 per month, for the main
tenance of q racing association, said as
sessment to be used for the mainte-
nance of the track and purses, meet

 Mexican Herald: The other day Mrs c. x Smith of Norfolk, Virgil mia, went to say her prayers at the Profesa church She had heard much of the rateros but was inclined to think that this evil was exaggerated. She knelt down in the church, placing her purse and gloves on the bench be- side her and hid her face in her hands iu prayer. When she had finished her devoti0ns she rose to depart and look. ing for her purse she found it no longer where she had left 1t. The purse only contained a small sum Of money and the chief inconvenience to the lady is that her return ticket to the states was among the articles in the purse and she finds that she has to purchase new one. The lady is stopping at the Hotel de France and no doubt she would be glad to receive the ticket back which cannot be of much use to the person who stole

be 1870 feet We have also about six
miles of roadbed constructed out of Port
Angeles and about ten miles of right-of.

Everything is in satisfactory shape to
begin the construction work at once and

Running newspaper is Just like
running hotel, only it is different
When man goes into hotel and
finds something on the table that he
don't like, he doesn't kick all the fat
into the fire and tell the landlord to
"stop his darned old hotel,'' saws an
exchange. He just pushes that plate
aside and wades into another brand of
eatabl es. But it is different with some
newspaper readers. They find an item,
they don't like and without stopping
to think that il may please a whole lot
of other people, make grand stand
play of their assinity and stop their
paper. The paper don't stop but that
particular gentleman's copy fails to
reach him next week and he is sure to
sneak around and borrow his neigh
boris copy, sjust to see if the paper is
still published" you know. The press
still grinds on, however, and new SUBJ
scribers line up in the place of the
dyspeptic who stopped his source of
information because small part OF it
didn't suit him.

The Odd Fellows Home.

DR.. Beach and Jud. Becker returned
from their trip to Wa1la Walla Satur-
doy evening, and report that they left
Judge Dunbar in excellent shape at
the Odd Fellows Home, and are con-
fident, from the kind welcome they re-
ceived. that the invalid will have
splendid treatment and every consider
alton from Supt. Co1vin and his wife.
At all stages of the trip willing hands
lent every assistance and the trip was
made in ease and comfort. The Home
is situated in slightly and pleasant
location, and has twelve inmates, five
aged Odd Fellows. and seven orphans,
hve OF the children belonging to one
family. It is well supported by the
Washington Odd Fellows, and when
fully completed and furnished can ac-
commodate fifty persons. The lower
floor, now occupied, has large par1or
nicely furnished, piano, presented
by Spokane lodge; and the reading
room has an extensive library and
plenty of reading matter.
A professional nurse was employed
for Judge Dunbar, he being the only
inmate unable to care for himself.
Messrs Beach and Becker spent two
days ia Wa1la Walla, and returned
home enthusiastic over the Home, the
city, climate, and feeling perfectly
safe over leaving one of their brothers
in the care of Superintendent Colvin
and his wife. They are the right per-
sons in the right place and spend their
time in making conditions pleasant for
those in their charge.
The penitentiary was also visited
and an interesting hour was spent.
May Williams and John Strong, the
Indian, who were sent from Mason
County, were seen, the latter being the
model prisoner of the institution.
Cronin is about the worst, and is no
stranger to the solitary confinement
treatment.
