SECOND HEAT.

1t took three trials before Starter Lane
sent them off for the second trip. On
his favorite footing at the first turn,
Hal pulled ahead and on the back stretch
was fully length to the good. Roy did
not care for this though, for asGthey turned
for the first trip under the wire it only
needed a little urging on the part OF his
driver for him to move his feet a little
faster, and the gap was swiftly closed.
Past the judges stand they went nose
and nose, Hal If anything little ahead.
AS usual the Studley steed made a gain
at the turn, but not so much as he had

Roy began again to close up the distance
between himself and his rival Like a
whirlwind they came down the stretch
under the lash, both magnificent animals
streaming every nerve for the lead. The
crowd held their breaths and not MUIR
muir was heard as the two geIdings sped
for the goal nose and nose.
They were not an inch apart as they
crossed the line and the judges declared
it a dead heat. This suited the crowd
and the decision could not have been
otherwise. Time, 2 % "a.

FIFTH HEAT.

There was a long delay before the hors
es came out for the fifth and as 1t
proved, the final heat. Temple Hal had
lost shoe in the previous trial and
blacksmith had to be brought from
Gorham village to repair the damage be-
fore the fun could go on. Hal had so
plainly quit before that in the minds or
the crowd the race was already decided
and there was fully as much interest in
the question whether the race would
finish before train time as there was in
the result. There wasn't much time to
spare when they. finally appeared, but
the pair were given good send off the
second time down and folks breathed
easier. AS had been supposed 1t was
Lucky Roy's heat without much trou-
BILE. He pulled a length away at the
start and had little trouble in holding
the lead all the way around. Tom
Woodbury. applied the whip with vigor
on the stretch, but Hal failed to respond
and the race went to Lucky Roy. ETime,

like an easy thing tor Tom Hal, Jr. S son
but Roy had somethingEup his sleeve, and
on the back stretch he.began tosget into the
game again. He crept slowly up on Hal
and just as they turned was by his side
once more. Lucky Roy friends now
took their turn at cheering. The cheers
stopped uddenly though, for Roy lost his
feet again a couple of rods before the pair
entered the stretch. He was on again
though before he had taken four steps
and the change of pace seemed to give
him new courage. 1t was Halls turn to
seem to stand still now, and before the
twain had reached the distance pole Roy
was well in the lead. The pace of the
first half, which was made in ITO 10,
was too much for Hal and he plainly
quit. while Roy logged under the wire.

race. Hal had pulled good four lengths

The Chinese are remarkably fond of
the drama, and consequently every viii
lage has Its stage. In this way the
people are educated in the past history
of their nation. The stage arrange
ments are about on a par with those
which existed in England at the time
of Shakespeare There Is no scenery,
and consequently the success of the
piece depends entirely on the acting,
which is remarkably good.
Actresses do not exist in China, for
since, some centuries ago, an emperor

allowed. Women's parts. are taken by
boys, who excel in their limitations of

rhe Grenade Throwers.

The grenadiers. the senior of British
regiments which compose the brigade
of guards. got its name from the fact
that toward the end of the eighteenth
century the men were armed with
hand grenades to throw among the
enemy. They had to be in the front
of the fighting line: hence they gained
a reputation for bravery and the name
of the "grenadiers.' The badge of the
regiment is still a hand grenade spout
