is AFTER MEDICRAFT,s SEAT.
Contest BrOugh by Henrfcks Is
Before the Committee

He1OTe the committee.
The house committee On elections listened
yesterday afternoon to the attorneys in the
contest brought by Peder NJ Henricks for the
seat now occupied by r. H. Med:craft, Of
Roseau, from the Sixty-third senatorial dis
trict.
The contest is brought on the ground that
Medicraft not at the time OF his election
a citizen of the United States. Papers were
produced showing that on June 26, 1885, he
secured his first papers, and that on May 10,
1898. he took out his final papers. This ON
its face shortens up the time between the
declaration and the taking out of the second
papers to less than the two years provided b.
law. The point was also made that he had
not been a citizen Of the United States for
five years. and this also made him ineligible
for the Office
A. Y. Merrill, of Minneapolis, representing
Mr.. Medicraft, argued that the committee
should consider the contest only from legal
standpoint, and until the citizenship papers
issued by Judge Ives were revoked Medicraft
citizen of the United States. The fur
Their point made that even if the house
should unseat Medicraft it could not legally
seat Henricks.
Henry Johns, who represented Henricks,
urged the committee not to take notice OF
legal bubbles, but to decide the contest on
IT'S merits.
The committee held an executive session
after hearing the arguments of the attorneys,
and announced that the case would be further
considered

The June meeting of the Coney Island
Jockey club, which was from a sport
ing standpoint one of the most success
full in the history of the club and from
financial the most successful, was
brought to a close Tuesday, July 4.
Thirteen days racing were given and
81 owners secured some part of the
money hung up, stakes and purses, the
money being remarkably well distrib-
uted j. E. Madden heads the list of
winning owners, with $22,S50 to his
credit, won chiefly by David Garrick in
the Great Trial Stakes and Prince of
Melbourne in the first part of the Dou-
Bile Event. Sydney Paget is second,
with $21, 235, due chiefly to Admiration's
victory in the Special sweepstakes.
c. II. Smith of Chicago, a we'll known
wheat Spectator, has purchased the
two-year-old brown colt Lieut.. Gibson,
by G. w. Johnson-Sophia Hurdy, from
Baker & Gentry for $4,000. The colt
has started in five races and won three,
was second in one and third in the 9TH
er. His best performance was his vic
tory in the Sensation stakes at Latonia
June II.
j. E. Madden has purchased from c.
T. Patterson the two-year-old bay colt
McMeekin, by Fonso-Daisy Rose. The
price Is said to have been $500. The
colt will probably be given a let-up for
a while. as his new owner thinks he has
had too much racing.
Burns & Waterhouse have completed
a deal with Jockey Tommy Burns to
ride for them next winter at San Fran
cisco. Burns will do the lightweight
riding and Thorpe will continue to be
the premier jockey of the stable.

The Columbia Gardens the Next Thing to

Admiral Heilbronner of the Columbia
garden fleet was in the city yesterday
securing new crews to man his vessels.
He is throwing out many inducements
and applicants are coming forward In
large numbers. All he requires of his
crews is that they enjoy themselves on
the placid surface of his beautiful lake
in the flowery suburb of Butte.
On the beach is being erected an
Oriental pavilion, small but beautiful in
design. 1t is of the Japanese style of
architecture.
The gardens are in the zenith of their
luxuriant beauty. 1t Is a popular pic
mic spot for families. The little children
Of Butte are all getting fat and when
they are turned loose in the gardens
they don't do thing but forget that
they are domestic animals and resolve
themselves into band of bowling and
screeching Dervishes. They enjoy it.,
though, and their mothers enjoy 1t, too.
To go out to the gardens is like being
picked up out of prairie fire and de-
posted in the Garden of Eden.
