feature and q crowded house is expected.

They will go on the stage and illustrate
the fine points of the manly art Of self

So many of the riders entered for the
century run of the Century Road Club or
America, which took place Sunday, fall
ed to start on account of the unfaverable
weather that it has been decided to re-
peat the event. Accordingly one or more
divisions, as may be necessary, will start
from Bedford Fountain, Brooklyn, tomor-
row at $50 o'clock. All who failed to
start last Sunday or who started and
failed to finish may take part, using their
original badges, without paying any adj
ditional entry fee Medals Will be ready
at the finish for all who desire them.

The impression that the N. c. A. riders
were not very successful this year in
money matters Is shown to be wrong by
a comparison of the earnings of L. A.
w and N c. A. riders.
Taking the twenty-one leading riders in
the race for championship points last
year. when the L. A. W. was in full con-
troll, it is found that their total winnings
were $4,000 up to Oct. l. The leading
twenty-one men in the N c. A. champion
ship contest made this year s17,SS5. The
largest circuit-chasing winner in 1893 was
"Maior'' Taylor, who made $3.50. McFar-
land. the heaviest N. c. A. winner this
season pocketed s2,SS5. Cooper, who won
the n. c. A. championship got s1,s68 dur
ing the season, while Gardiner, the cham
pion of last year. made s2,Sa5 on the cir
cult. Bald last year won $3.50 as COM
pared with Stevens's rake off of $1.792-

ATTEMPTS TO END HIS LIFE.
Honest John Salisbury Sashes His
Throat With a Knife.

hoheS' Iohh SaltSoury SldsheS HIS
Throat With Knife.
Kansas City Times, 9th.
Honest John" Salisbury, a prom
inent stockman and for years one of
the most prominent democratic poll
ticiaus in Kansas City, cut his throat
with pen knife yesterday evening
at his residence, POPS East Nine.

tempt 10 take his life.
Though still alive late last night,
one of the physicians who attended
him, DIR. L. B Robinson, said there
was no possible hope of recovery,
and that death was certain to ensue
before morning.
The deed was committed during
religious dementia The instrume ent
used was small pen knife, and with
this he slashed his throat four times.
The last stroke almost entirely sew
cred The jugular vein. Physicians
were promptly called and hastily
stopped the flow of blood and
brought together the severed iugu.
lar vein. Shortly afterward Sails.
bury regained consciousness and
spoke, asking that those 10 attend
ance leave the room.
Suddenly be grasped al his throat
and by his violent exertions again
broke open the wound There is no
possible hope of recovery, his physi-
clans say.
The deed was entirely unexpected
by those about him. He has been
up and about as usual of late. But
for the past year his mind has been
affected and it is said that once be.
fore, nearly year ago, he attempt.
ed suicide, bat was prevented just
in time. His health has not been
very good. Since last summer
friends observed that his mind was
affected, and at times his alteration
assumed the form of distinct relig.
ious dementia.
At the residence last night all in.
formation is refused, except the
statement that the patient was rest
ing well, and doing as we'll as could
be expected. The information that
John Salisbury had attempted sui
eide came as great surprise to the
friends who heard it last night. No
reason could be assigned, except
some temporary alteration.

Ft. Dodge, Ia, July 30.-For the
past ten days State veterinarian
Gibson has been here conducting
dairy tests for tuberculosis. Several
herds have been examined, and n
each case the presence Of the disease
has been discovered. The last and
most Important test was made yes
terday, when the herd Of the Oak
Lawn dairy was examined There
are thirty y-eight cows in this herd,
and the tests revealed the startling
fact that eleven Of them answered 70

disease in 80 per cent OF the animals.

Death Might Beat BrvAn

Jackson. Miss, July 31.-Con-
gressman Champ Clark says he is
sure Of democratic success next ear.
Nothing short of death can prevent
Bryan from being the next demo
cratic nominee and nothing but the
Intervention of the Almighty will
keep him from being elected" CLARK
declared yesterday.
Democratic chances Of success
have improved fully so per cent in
the last four months and are now
brighter than they have been in any
Presidential campaign in the past
twenty years. 1t is practically set
tied what the party platform will be
and it may be outlined as follows:
Re-ensctment Of the Chicago plat.
form, declaration against expansion,
strong plank against trusts and
other forms of oppression, cppesi
tion to a large standing army and
advocacy of economy in public
expenses.

Quite recently in New York two
deaths occurred from poisoning by
the use of powders sent to the vic
tins by mail. In Leavenworth, Kan,
the other day nearly every doctor in
town was called to attend the chill.
dren who had gathered no, eaten
and been made i'll by samples of an
article left at houses by canvassers
for advertising purposes.
Alum baking powders have always
been favorite articles for this sampl.
ing business. Yet there is nothing
more liable to lead to danger than
the practice of using the various
samples of baking powder left at the
door They are presented by ire
sponsible parties, in appearance are
not distinguishsble from arsenic,
and indeed, in Indiana some time
since, one package was found, after
it had caused the death of the house
wife, to have been mixed with that
poison.
It is safer to refuse all samples of
food or medicine offered at the door.
Pure cream of tartar baking powders
sell upon their merits, and are never
peddled or sampled.
