Hour Record Broken.

Philadelphia, Sept. 13.-Harry Fixes.
the champion middle distance bicycle
rider, tonight broke the one-hour
worlds record in a test of speed for
that period on the Woodside park one
third-mile board track. His record for
the hour was thirty-six miles, TAT yards.
The best previous record was held by
Edward Taylore, the French champion,
who some weeks ago rode thirty-five
miles, 69s yards in one hour, in France.
Taylore's figures from one mile to the
hour have not reached this country, as
far as is known, and it is believed that
Elkes broke other records.
The exhibition was held under the
auspices of the National Cycling asso-
citation. The other events on the pro-
gramme was a twenty mile race be-
tween Burns Pierce of Boston and
Harry Caldwell of Cambridgeport.
Mass, in which Caldwell was the victor
by lap and half. His time was

Boarded Short Line Engine, Intend

A man and a woman. both under ths
influence of liquor. caused some excite

and O'Clock last evening. The couple
intended taking the westbound passen-

no hurry to get aboard, jolhed around
until the train puffed out Of the yard
Then the woman, in a sudden burst OF
energy, ran across the yard to an en-
CINE standing on a side track, and
started to open the throttle, expecting
to overtake the passenger, now two
blocks up the track. That she did noe
accomplish her purpose was due only
to the timely interference of Officer Gal<
lespie, who jumped aboard and tooI<
the woman from the cab. The mani
did not see the woman make the at
tempt, he having got lost on the other
side of the station. Their names were

GoULDs AGAINST HUNTINGTON.
Rivalry For Control of the Texas
Traffic.

Austin, Tex. Sept. 18.-The Gould lines
in Texas are rapidly arranging to test
business grounds with the Huntington
system, They propose to DO this by par
alleiing the latter lines as much as posi-
Bile through north Texas and thence to
the Gulf port at Galveston. Their prop
osition as developed to-day is to make ex-
tensions of some short lines they now
own or lease in the northern and central
part of the state. so as to form a through
line from Fort Worth to Galveston, via
Waco, by which they hope to divide the
trade of north Texas, not only with the
Huntington system, but with the Mis-
souri,. Kansas & Texas road also. 1t is
announced that the Goulds will have COM
pleted all the connecting short lines with
in the next twelve months and will then
be- prepared to compete for north Texas
business, via the Galveston port, as
against the Huntington and Katy sys-
TENS. The systems of roads mapped out
will thread the center of the state in one
of the richest portions.

Method of Drainage.

Nature will remove the injurious salts
when there is a subStrata of gravel or
sand, which offers free movement to
the water, provided there is an outlet.
When the substrata is not present, the
most feasible method is to put in tile
drains in parallel rows, and the number
of the drains will depend on the texture
of the soil One of the objects of the
present series of experiments is to oe-
termine the texture of the soil and then
the approximate distance between the
tile drains necessary to carry off the,
salts in solution can be determined.
The method pursued by Messrs.
Gardner, Means and Stewart is a new
departure in experimental work by the
department of agriculture. Some pre-
liminary experiments were made IN
Montana last year, but the present is
the first instance in which work of any
magnitude has been undertaken. The
present series of experiments will con-
tinue until Oct. 15. Then MesSrs..
Means and Gardner will return to
Washington and complete the labora-
tory experiments. The outcome of this
investigation will determine the most
economical method of retaining the
barren lands west of the Missouri river.
The results will be embodied in a de-
partment publication, and the outcome
will be watched with considerable in

swarmed the Midway after the bicycle
races had been finished. Every Der

was making money. The Midway did
not have more than an hour on which

done, and there will be no more trouble

this action weeks ago. said Manager
De Kreko of the Streets of Cairo, for

The most important action was to
make an arrangement with the Hagen
back wild animal show to appear as a
free exhibition within the Salt Palace
itself. The cages of wild animals will
be placed about the colonnade of the
Palace, leaving room for the promenade
around the inside. Performances VIII
be given several times during the day,
just as is now done in the tent on the

not be interfered with at all.
They will dance to the roar of the
lions, as well as to the music of the

In addition to this show, Manager
Monday of Hagenback's will put in a
palace of illusions, which will be free

to secure the Bartholomew horse show.
