The fields were very evenly classed and
the different events well contested. Fa-

by capturing three purses.
The Lakeside stake, over mile and a

Largest Grave In the World.

The largest single grave in the world
occupies Just exactly one acre of
ground. which is surrounded by an
iron railing. This enormous grave is
located at Pearto Cortez in Spanish
Honduras and is the burial place of a
woman. The tombstone occupies the
center of the ground inclosed, and sew
eral wooden figures representing the
deceased are arranged in statuelike
form in different parts of the ground.
There are no fewer than 16 of these
figures. which in the evening give the
place Il ghostlile appearance.
The deceased had died rich and in
her will had specified the amount of
ground to be purchased for her grave
and the manner In which 1t should be
decorated. She had many curious no.
tons. and the size and ornamentation
of her grave was one of them.
