BoRALMA THE GREAT.
Wins the Kentucky Futurity Purse
and Big Wager Money


and Big Wager Money.
Lexington, Ky, Oct. 4.-The great
$1,000 Futurity of 1899 is a thing of the
past and all honor to Boralma. the
game son of Boreal, who Won it after
the best race in the history of the time
honored event. But perhaps the most
notable thing connected with the mag
nificent victory was the betting OF
Thomas FL. Lawson. the Boston mil
lionaire, famous from the Lawson
Pink" who bought Boralma Monday
night from Mccoy. The latter had re-
Gently purchased the great 3-year-old
from Scott Newman of Louisville.
Lawson closed the deal Monday nigh,
on the condition that Boralma should
win the F'uturity. He descended on
Lexington in his private car and gave
the greatest Illustration of betting ever
seen in the history of the trotting horse
world. He took every pool he could get
on the chestnut, backing him down
from even money against the field to
ten to seven.
Even after Idolita had won the first
two heats With the greatest ease, and It
looked dollars to doughnuts that the
morse was hopelessly beaten, Lawson
went into the betting she'd and literally
bet the ring off its feet. He entirely
changed the complexion of the booking
and his horse won out in one of the
gamest struggles ever seen. 1t is said
that Mr.. Lawson had up $4,000 on the
race and cashed in his tickets for $780,
900. He gave Gus Macy, who drove
Boralma, $4,000 after the race and Nc
Coy gave the skillful reinsman another
Thousand.
The Futurity stretched into six-heat
race. 1t is estimated that not less than
sl5o,o0O lay in the pool box on the Futu-
rity

YOUNG MAN IGNORED
Father McGavick Appointed Auxili-
 ary Bishop of Chicago.
will Assist Archbishop Feehan fin Administering the Affairs of the ArchdiOcese-PrOm Won
 by Signal Success.

Rev. Father Alexander J. McGavick, pastor of St. Johns Roman Catholic church, Eighteenth and Clark streets, Chicago. has received his appointment as auxiliary bishop to assist Arch bishop Feehan, of the diocese of Chi cago. The appointment, which does not carry the right of succession. was complete surprise to Father McGavick, who had no thought of the honor when summoned before the archbishop. The rank of auxiliary bishop is something of novelty in the Catholic church. as there are but three others in this coun- try-one each in New York, Boston and Philadelphia.
 The duties of the pastorate of St. Johns church will still be performed by Father McGavick. who will wear the purple cassock. the insignia of his rank. while officiating at his church. He will have considerable extra labor put on his shoulders by his new position. how ever. as Archbishop Feehan is advanc- ing in years. and the diocese is a large one, taking in the northern end Of the state as far west as the Mississippi and as far south as Kanllakee.
 The appointment came in the shape of two documents. They were issued from the congregation of the propa- ganda at Rome, which has charge of the affairs of the Roman Catholic church in :he United States. They were forwared to Mgr. Martinelli at Wash ingtOn and then to chbishop Fee han. The first paper was an appointment as bishop of Metropolis. which is now a suppressed see and located in the arch bishopric of Odessa. Russia. The other made him auxiliary bishop. assisting Archbishop Feehan. It Is necessary for every bishop to have a see. and for the auxiliary class suppressed sees are used.

Our crea. Z,aalt-y Industry.

During the last quarter of a century the poultry industry has developed into the largest agricultural industry of the country. The value of the industry is uEderestimatad by the American peo- pie, and it has not been until recently that attention has been called to the vast wealth that lies at our very dcor. While the poultry industry is larger than any of the others, it is the only a agricultural product that we do not export. Our entire yield, which is vastly insufficient to meet the demand is all consumed at home, and besides, statistics show we import from for cign countries over 13,O00,000 dozen eggs anEually.
