The pest house is a thing of the past,

A throng of 1900 enthusiastic lovers
Of cycling lined up on the benches Of
the Salt Palace track last night. at
what proved to be the most successful
and interesting meet of the season.
1t was a Jolly and good-natured
crowd. One of the kind that knows no
waiting with patience and is ready to
root and shout at the sterling perform
ances of the circuit chasers. And they
did root, shout and grow enthusiastic
during the evening, for the events
easily Outclassed any ever seen on the
track for vim and whirlwind finishes.
This spirit Of enthusiasm reached the
climax in the professional tandem
race, the star event Of the evening.
Men. women and children rose to their
feet as one body. cheering wildly and
waving handkerchiefs, canes and fans,
when Glenn Turville and J. P. Gum
rode to victory over Iver Lawson and
John Chapman. after the hardest
fought battle of Drawn and speed that
ever burned the pine boards Of the

Fast Time Made.
When Sherman announced the time
for the mile, 1850, a mighty shout
went up that echoed to heavens high
canopy
This spell of fever-like ecstacy was
not modified when the second heat of
the one-mile lap, professional race, re
suited in a tiger-fOught dead heat be-
tween J. ". Ensign, a Utah prOduc-
/ ton, and lver Lawson. The fight for
supremacy lasted as long as the race,
and reflected as much credit on En-
sign as it did excitement upon the
spectators. The final heat resulted in
victory for Chapman, after a cannon
ball sprint from Turville.
Mayor Thompson and the members
of the city council cheered and shouted
with the rest. and for once forgot their
arduOus duties of holding the city
life lines.
Dealing retrOspectively with the pro-
gramme of the evening, it began with
an amateur One-mile race, with eight
entries. Bainbrige looked an easy win
ner in the final heat up TO the moment
SamuelsOn made a quiet sneak into the
fore, sprinting so swiftly that he was
never found any more. He won by a
length. with Cranes leading Guthrie
by half lap, and the field struggling.
Again the amateurs had the field in
the third event, a twO-mile open. Mea-
kin, Guthrie, r. Cranes and Z. B. and
II. w. Heagren qualifying in the final
heat.
Was a Pretty Race.
It was a pretty battle, characterized
by the splendid riding Of Meakin. He
oUtclassed his field and went winner
by a lap of margin. H W. Heagren
and R Cranes came two, three, and
the field lined back Indian file, with
big ragged gaps of light between them.
One lonesome spill was recorded
when 0. Z. Emery, after do
ing a contortion act on the saddle in
the mile professional tipped over and
bit the dust. He was Jared a bit and
that was all.
1t was announced at the track that
John Lawson who has just arrived
from Los Angeles, where he smashed
al twenty-four- hour records by riding
529 miles, would appear at the meet
next Tuesday night in a fifteen mile
match for $50 a side with Emory, paced

A GREAT MODERN DALE.

The greatest feat OF modern civiiiza-
| ton is the modern newspaper w..
| This thought comes to mind almost
every day as we take from it's wrapper
The Minneapolis Tribune. It is sim
ply astounding how much in the way
of information and fact as well as in
telligent comment one can buy for a
cent-new and fresh every day. 49,.
There is something to be said about
The Tribune which probably is un-
true of any other Twin City daily. 1t
! is consistently and persistently Re-
publican. The Tribune never goes off
after false gods nor do the flesh pots of
office or the allurements of gain ever
swerve it from it's support of the right
At the same time, it is modest in it's
efforts to shape party policy and the
selection of candidates for Office.
All this may be understood, how
ever, from the fact that The Tribune
| is in no sense an organ; it is a news
paper-with the accent upon the news.
No doubt this accounts for it's over
topping circulation. When a paper in
Minnesota averages for an entire year
over $4,000 circulation, as the Tribune
did (50,185 for the year ending March
l, 1900, it is going to more people,
considering the number of people
within It's field, than any paper we
know of.
There are more kinds of people in
Minnesota interested in the dog in
The, Tribune's daily cartoon than in
any other one daily creation. These
cartoons are inimitably funny, and at
the same time full of good sense. They
drive home a witty thrust when a
whole column of editorial might glance
off ineffective.
The Tribune has recently moved into
it's new marble front building, of which
it is justly proud. It's equipment is
said to be without exception the finest
and most up-to-date in America. No
money has been spared to make it so
and the paper tells on it's face that it
is the product not only of the best
mechanical facilities, but the best
newspaper brains and character in the
Northwest.
We feel like saying to others sToe
the mark with The Minneapolis
Tribune"

or low notes of music, but one doubts
if such imitation is conscious, or bas-
ed at all on enjoyment. The dog ap-
pears depressed with lowered head
and tail, or uncomfortably excited,
and a kind of thrill precedes the
sounds. On the other hand, both cats
and dogs appear to be unconscious OF
the sounds they utter until experience
or definite teaching has shown them
the result. To make a dog utter sounds
voluntarily is often very difficult, and
those who can Sing" to order seem to
exercise painful tension of will.
Again, excitement will strangulate the
voice of the dog. like that of a shy girl
at singing lesson, so that his strong
est impulse to appeal is mute. So, too,
cats often silently open their mouths
when they demand food. Such facts
seem to point to the conclusion that
the noise is not purposely produced,
and that though sounds may give
warning or guidance to other animals,
the utterance is dependent on physical
impulse. When the impulse is imita-
tive it may depend ultimately on such
sensation as is felt by some people in
the throat when Bourbon stop is on
the organ, and by most people when
they hear, for instance, the cheering of
a large crowd. If this is so, we are on
the wrong tack in comparing the
sounds of animals, varied and speci-
ted though they are, to language, and
should rather compare them to weep
ing and laughter, which provoke an
initiative response, or feven to the
sounds of a man who has early be-
come dumb through deafness. For
in such cases it is not purpose but eff
ficient cause that must be the subject
of inquiry.

French Fast Losing Ground.

Is French losing ground abroad
that is to say, is it being less spoken
and read by educated people on the
continent of Europe and elsewhere
than was formerly the case?- This is
a question which has from time to
time given rise to interesting discus
sion, and certain lamentations lately
uttered by a Partisan review have
brought it cnce more rather promi-
nently to the front There is no doubt
that during recent years it has met
with formidable rivals: Z. The tongue
Of united Germany is more studied
than it was in the old days, and vari-
GUS enterprising nationalities of the
smaller kind are bestowing more at
tention on their own language and lit
erature than they had had the oppor-
tunity of doing for centuries. All this
may be readily admitted, and nothing
could be more natural. The immense
facilities now given to travelling, the
enormous expansion Of international
trade and the impulse which the ma
tionality movement has received were
all bound to lead to this result on
don Telegraph

HE FOUND A DIAMOND
Glittering in the Midst of Piece of
Blue Clay.


Mrs. William Playfair, the wife OF
the well-known physician, is the
possessor of diamond to which
a very special interest is attached, says
the Chicago News. Some years ago
DR.. Playfair, while attending patient
from the Orange Free State, happened
to notice in this lady's drawing room
a piece Of bright blue stone, from
which a tiny brilliant point pro-
truded. Seeing that his attention was
attracted by this specimen, the pa
tient begged him to examine it, told
him it was meteorological curiosity,
that diamonds were rarely found I'M
der those particular geological condi-
lions and finally begged his acceptance
of the stone, adding that the gift was
only valuable as curiosity. DR.. Play
fair willingly accepted the interesting
nemento of a very pleasant acquain-
lance and for some time the piece of
blue clay, with it's tiny glittering ap-
pendage, was an object of deep inter-
est to all his friends.
One day it occurred to the doctor to
show his bit of blue clay to a jeweler
who was considered an expert in
stones and to suggest that the latter
should break up the lump and see how
much of the gathering matter lay hid
den from view. To this, however, the
jeweler was distinctly averse, saying
that they could see all there was OF
value in it and that in breaking up the
lump of clay they would spoil very
interesting specimen. DR.. Playfair,
however, insisted upon having his own
way, with the result that very valu-
able diamond was shortly afterward
brought to light. Needless to add,
the Orange Free. State was at once
communicated with. but the giver of
the interesting" gift would not hear
of the stone being sent out to her and
it now, sparkles in the center of a very
handsome pendant that is one of Mrs,
William Playfair's most cherished pos
