as he sat listening to the troubles of all
kinds that were put before him. He
seemed to go to the bottom OF every case
at once and to give simple justice all the
Ilme. The last one OF the crowd was a
girl who was deaf and dumb. All she
want was to see the President. Lincoln
sat There for almost half an hour and wrote
answers on the girls tablet and talked
with her in that way.
Finally my time came and Lincoln
burned and saw me sitting to one side.

coming into the last lap of the 32d mile,
the McEachern tandem sustained punct-
ure and the swift Canadian rider ran full
tilt into his pace makers. He was hurled
high into the air and landed among the
spectators. The injured motor then start
ed straight down the track into the path
of the Miller motor which was coming
around the turn at a terrific clip with
the result that there was collision and
both the machines were thrown into a
heap. Miller, who was riding very close
behind his machine, was thrown into the
air fullv ten feet and landed on the lett
side OF his head against the press box.
His condition was found to be SO serious

NEARING THE END.

New York, September LIT is related
that Lord Roberts VIII leave South Afri-
ca on November 1, says the London COR
respondent Of the Tribune.
Lord Roberts's now objective point is
clearly Komatipoort. There was lighting
all along the line on Sunday, and the
Beers were steadily driven back. Lord
Roberts has adapted his tactics TO the re-
quirements of the guerilla warfare, and
at the same time has scattered Com
mandant BOtha's forces, and is pushing
on with all despatch to Komatipoort,
where the open door into neutral terri
tory may be closed.

Chesapeake Athletic Club.

A representative of the Virginian-
Pilot visited the above named club last
evening. and was surprised at the de-
velopment it has made in the past few
weeks. Mr.. Jacobs was busy instruct
ing the bag punching class in the art
of striking that elusive pig skin, but
courteously showed the scribe around
his place. In the front of the large
hall which is used as the gymnasium
Mr.. Jacobs has erected fine hand ball
court. Back of this is an eighteen foot
ring, where the manly art is taught.
All along the sides of the room are
hung dumb bells. Indian clubs, boxing
and striking gloves and other gymna-
stun paraphernalia.
In the rear OF the ring are the strik-
ing bags-five in number-both plat
form and suspended. After the differ
ent exercises have been gone through
with the members of the club repair
TO the dressing room. in the rear. where
they are administered cold sponge
bath and n brisk rub down.
Mr.. Jacobs proposes to give some in
teresting exhibitions during the COM
ing winter. The membership is rapidly
increasing. Mr.. Jacobs is justly proud
of his enterprise, which certainly should
be successful.
