.COURS|NG IN THE DUST
Despite the Weather Good AT
ternoon's Sport Was Had.
NEW JUDGE IN THE SADDLE
G. Jerome of San Francisco, an Enthusi-
asst, Made His First Appearance as
Judge - Surprise in
Sapling Race.

Since it could not raise rain storm
to hurt the coursing. it blew dust most
of the afternoon, but fair crowd saw
a royal afternoons sport at West Side
park yesterday.
Manager MacDougall had a surprise
for the coursing men in the person of
c. Jerome of San Francisco, who took
Mr.. Caravans place as judge. This ar
rangement will be permanent. Mr..
jerome is gentleman of great expert
ence in coursing, having bred, run and
judged greyhounds in Australia for 90
years or more. His first trial at West
Side park was rather unfortunate, as
his stirrup leather broke. 1t was fixed
hastily and broke again in the second
course, which cost Mr.. Jerome a fall,
but luckily without being hurt. Tie
coursing men are highly pleased with
his work in the saddle and being man
of mature years and so enthusiastic
about coursing that he is here as a
volunteer. refusing any compensation
for his services as judge, he will I'M
doubtedly inspire perfect confidence.
The card included two stakes, one for
the II puppies and another for eight
the really great Lobelia, who showed
great working powers, though she Gid
not seem to be quite as fast in the May
puppy stake. In the semi-fnals Dusty
Miller led her well in what proved to pe
an undecided, though he pulled up lame
and she beat well in the run-off. In the
finals, Bob F'itz led her two or three
lengths, but she had the best of rather
unsatisfactory scramble and won by
her smart work.
In the sapling stake the surprise was
the California bred Yantara, sturdy,
coarse looking son of Lopez imported
Waratah. This youngster had for his
first mate Dandaloo, by the same sire.
Neither had ever seen a hare and the
latter refused to run. Yantara ham
mered away after a good hare single
handed to the escape. He came back
very tired, so much so that his owner
was condoling with Jim Treloar that
good little Queen of the West would
ones would not have him at any price
The auctioneer even offered to pay for
a ticket for anyone who would allow
his name to go on it, but not single
pool was sold on the course. But. sucn

! the speed over Queen and beat her nice

In the final Skyball ruled favorite at

| of slips and got off without his mate
after a flying hare, which he coursed

and finally killed, showing the most
| desperate courage and gameness. Of
course, he was drawn after this Cruel

the way, which gave Skyball first mon

CAVE A BUSINESS TALK
Rev. Settle Addressed His Con-
gregation on It's Duties.
STRENGTHEN THE CHURCH
Members Should Throw Their Energy
Into Every Section of the Church's
Work-The Church. Is the
Workshop.

Rev. J. NJ Settle of the NJ. E. church,
South. preached two sermons yesterday
in which he touched upon the duty of
the members and what is expected of
them. The subject of the morning SER
mon was, The Real Church. and in
the evening he spoke on THE Charac-
ter of a Real Member of Gods Church."
The services will continue to be held
in Odd Fellows hall until the new
church is completed.
Last night the singing of the choir
was a feature of the programme. Miss

Down, Arise" in sweet voice. dis
playing marked ability as a singer of
operate selections as we'll as of church
hymns.
Mr.. Settles sermon was in the ma
ture Of business talk to his flock. The
first duty of member of the church.
he said. was to strengthen the church
by applying his moral and physical
support to the cause. He noted the
presence in all congregations of too
many people who don't throw their
strength in every section of the church.
The ideal church member he went
on, is the one who will concentrate
all of his energies and force to help
the church along, assist in Sunday
school work and in Epworth League
work and encourage other members of
the congregation to assist him. No
church can succeed without a congre-
cation, and unless there is congre-
cation it cannot be found out just what
the pastor is capable Of doing. He Ger
tainly must have a congregation before
he can accomplish much towards build
ing up the church. Every department
of the church should receive the sup
port of every member"
The pastor said that he lost faith in
man or woman who does not take
pride in his ur her work. 1t was ex-
planned that every church dedicated to
God is kind of invitation to the peo-
pie to come and worship.
THE church is the workshop-the
place where preparation for the next
world is to be made" said he at is
the duty of the church member to fit
himself for residence with God in
heaven and the church is where the
fitting process should be carried out.

He FELL into THE CREEK
It Wasn't a Purling Brook by
Any Means, Either.
Mr.. RITCHEY RUBBERED
It Nearly Cost Him His Life-As 1t Was
1t Cost Him His Dignity and
Suit of Clothes-Moral,
Don't Rubber.

H. d. Ritchey, who resides at No. 932
East Galena street, had narrow es-
cape from death yesterday afternoon.
He was within about an inch and a
half of the place where life ends and
dissolution begins. If he had poked
his head out that much further he
would have been carried home on a
stretcher. AS it was, he rode, sitting
upright, in a street car The story Mr..
Ritchey will some day tell his grand
children will be something like this:
He was standing on the footrail of
one of the large observation cars riding
out to Columbia Gardens. The car was
damned. Ritchey, while the car was
crossing the creek south of the Silver
Bow mill, rubbernecked. The trolley
poles at this point are set near the
track and one of these his head graZed.
He fell into an awkward heap and roll
ed down the embankment into the
stream of Shiny blue-black mixture of
SUM and concentrates which flows
from the smelters and concentrators
above. A woman screamed and the car
came to a sudden stop. The cries of
the woman suggested to the crowd that
her child had fallen off and men hurried
back to rescue the infant. But when
the man who got there first saw that it
was not an infant, but full-grown
man, he could do nothing more than
mold the dazed mans head above water
After much Juggling and pulling Ritch-
ely was dragged up the tracks and put
aboard the car and transferred to a re-
turning car and brought to the city.
The street car company had the in
jured man conveyed to Murray &
Freund's hospital. While he is suffering
from concussion of the brain. it is not
regarded as a serious case. This should
serve as a warning to those who persist
in thinking it Is part of their duty to
look out. when the motorman is paid a
good salary to do that duty, and he al
ways does it well.
Don't rubberneck while the cars are
crossing the creek.

Something Awful.

The Bankers and the Antlers met on
the diamond and the Bankers unmerci-
fully whipped the Antlers. 1t was the
liveliest contest that has taken place
since Jeffries defeated Fitz. The at
tendance at the ball park was large
and the interest was intense and the
excitement wild. Without the formal
ity of the customary rag chewing"
bout the two teams went at it hammer
and tongs the Antlers first in. Perham
and Hodgens were the battery for the
Bankers. Hodgens sent a burner over
the plate and Smith struck at ii. The

he fired the ball off on a sailing eXpe-
dition over third base. He died on

The Bankers then went to bat and
made five runs, but in this inning the
Antlers proved to be something more
than ordinary. for they made a pretty
double play. Collins drove a warm one
into Wares nit, which the short stop
tossed TO third before Andy Davis
could return from his bluff toward the
plate. The crowd cheered Justify, for
it was indeed an Antler crowd of root
ers.
The first run for the Antlers was
made by Quarles, who started the en-
tire infield off after a grounder that
left a singed trail in the gravel across
the lot. He made home run and
the beachers screamed with delight
Mclaughlin carried the ball 20 yards
towards the infied where he was
tackled by Perham and a scrimmage
ensued. Black snapped up the ball on

team tumbed onto the fact that they
had injected foot ball where it didn't

again.

Two Alarms Last Night.

The fire department had two runs
very close together last night. At 1915
o'clock an alarm from box IL called the
firemen to the residence of John Moves
corner of Wyoming and Granite streets,
where some light decora tons were ig-
nited by coming in contact with the
lights of a chandelier. There was no
damage. The department barely had
time to get back into quarters when
an alarm came in from box 20. Some
children shooting off fireworks set fire
to the roof of the little candy store of
Mrs. T. e. Cronin at All North Main
street. The fire was extinguished with
a small amount of damage to the roof.

Charles OLinsky's Injury is Serious Blu,
Not Necessarily Fatal

Not Necessarily Fatal
Charles OLinsky, laborer employed
by Edgar Dayton at the business of
house-moving, was seriously injured
yesterday while engaged in moving a
building. A large building about 30X60
feet was being moved along aluminium
street by means of horse windlass.
Some obstruction getting in front of
one of the rollers checked the prog
ress of the structure and drew the rope
so taut that it broke, causing the sweep
of the windlass to fly back with great
force. O'Linsky was standing with his
back to the sweep and was struck in
the small of the back. 1t was feared
his back had been broken, but FORUM
ately this proved not to be the case.
The man was removed 70 his employ
er's cabin in Ohio avenue and DR.. Shee-
ran was summoned to attend him. Dr.
Sheeran stated last evening that while
O'Linsky's injury was grave, he did
not think it would prove fatal
