MRS. LEASE FOR M'KINLEY.
Kansas Woman Confirms Report of
= Political Change.

Chicago Special:
Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Lease, foremrly
of Kansas, but now of New York. yester-
day announced formally that she is go
ing to take the stump for Mckinley,
Roosevelt, n expansion. She is at the
Palmer house having a conference with
Senator Hanna at the republican head
quarters. Incidentally she took occasion
to pay her compliments to Mr.. Bryan,
Mr.. Stevenson n the democratic party
in general. She will not begin her cam
paign work unit! she has finished a
course of ten lectures under q contract
with the Redpath Lyceum bureaus, but
his engagement will soon be dis
posed of and Their Mrs. Lease will pro-
Nebraska afire with her %eloquence.
II am with the republican party now"
she said, primarily for the reason that
as I take it the issue a resolved itself
into the old issue of apprehension ver-
sus republicanism, and as the daughter
of an old union soldier, I feel that my
place Is with the republican party. The
democratic party Is still anchored to the
obsolete and worm-eaten doctrine Of
state rights: It is a party OF negation
cept that of retrogression and opposition
to republicanism.
"Mr. Bryan-well, I thought him a sin
cere man four years ago, a man devoted
to a principle and with the courage to
maintain it in the face of all opposition.
But, alas, events have forced me to the
sorrowful conclusion that my erstwhile
idol is simply an ordinary man with an
abnoramlly developed presidential bee in
his bonnet, who's seductive huns have
made him forget principle, consistency
and duty to his country and fellowman.
1T really makes one sad who believed
in his sincerity o ear ago to conf
pare his fearless and consistent utter
ances then with his cheap demagogism
| OF today. 1 i nave heard even some of his
followers say hat his present speeches
did not seem to ring as true as those of
our years ago, and that he failed to i'm
\ press them as he did then. This is SIM
ply due to the fact he is talking what he
| does not believe in his secret heart.
"At the same time I do not believe he
has any great hope of succeeding this
year. His game is to become one of the
new senators from Nebraska, believing
he can in this way keep himself before
the public eye until the elections of -four
years hence. He is going to remain in

An Important event in the history Of
horse breeding in California will take
place on the first of October when James
Butler, the we'll known New York mil
lionaare grocer, will take possession Of
the celebrated San Mateo stock farm,
owned by the estate Of the late William
Corbitt. To this historic place, Arthur
ton, Irvington and LIE Grande were first
brought from the east, and were fol-
lowed by Guy Wilkes, who founded a
family that is one of the greatest in
.trotting history. With the late JOB
Goldsmith as trainer and driver Mr.. Cor
bits stable of trotters won many VIC
tories on the Eastern circuits and more
winning stable Of the year. Since The
memorable dispersal sale in June,~1S9s,
when all the horses remaining on, The
farm were sold or rather given away at
auction. The buildings have been unoc-
cupied. Mr.. Corbbtt's death followed soon
after the sale and San Mateo stock farm
has been only a memory since that time.
There is a good mile track and all the
buildings necessary for a great breeding
and training farm, and when Mr.. Butler
secures control of 1T. will assume it's
old time Importance. The California
trainer. Thomas E. Heating, will have
charge of the place which is a guarantee
that it will be we'll managed. All Cali
fornia has a pride in this young gentle
man, whose good judgment. rare ability
as a speed developer, and strict business
methods have CARRIED hdm to the, very
front rank of American horsemen, and
Mr.. Butler is indeed fortunate to secure
his services. The stallion, Clayton,
2:OSA, and Direct, 2:05h. will be placed
In the stud, and Mr.. Butler will send
from his East View farm some of his
choicest mares. A string of campaign
ers win be prepared every spring at the
farm for the races on the eastern circuit
and the best prospects to be found in the
country will be purchased.-Bceeder and

liberal. n to show that I appreciate the

make this offer: The men each to post
$1,000; then S., 900 more when the articles
are signed. and SIS, 900 by February 1. the
checks to be drawn on the Stag Money
Bank.
"As q matter of fact. Jeffries never
fought for $685. 900 a side. No heavy
weights have fought for a side bet since
Corbett and Fitz tried conclusions.
II have made an offer to Brady stipu-
lating that the winner take all of the
purse. the fight to take place in any part
of the world. I am still willing to bet
$1,000 on the sid that Rubin beats JEFF
fries, and he did beat him in California,
though the decision was unfairly called a
draw.
"Now, If Mr.. Brady does not accept my
terms quickly I may stand for one better

drawing theatrical card than Jeffries."

"woomers,'' in the Australasian. tells
the following racing story, admittedly
old, but probably new to the present
generation. so it is worth repeating: IA
real good sport had been turned by cruel
fate into a parSon, but the sporting in
stinct in him could not be suppressed.
He saw a small boy and a girl running a
desperate race up to the church door.
After a slashing finish the girl just got
her nose in front and won. He called
the children to him. n giving the girl
the key of the hurc to carry, asked
them to rae again. At the appointed
signal the little girl got quickly into her
stride and soon held a lead OF half a
length. Then the boy gradually got on
terms with her. and coming with a wet
SAIL in the last few strides. he won a
very fine race by a neck. All, said the
parson, as he replaced the key in the
church door, I thought the fHy would
not get hon with the weight.
When C. X. G. Billings took his PAGER.
Bumps, to New York a couple OF years
ago and cleaned up everything or the
speedway there that chose to tackle the
western gelding, the Gothamites were
willing to admit that the Chicago man
had the best wagon PAGER in the world.
and also that Mr.. Billings CT Id drive
him we'll, but the New York papers In
clined to the view that PAGERS did not
count in Dad contests. They evidently
thought tina the Bumps incident was an
accident, and that the Chicago man would
not get hold of another harness perform
err able to, trim the entire road brigade
of the eastern city. 5
Last fall, however, Mr.. Billings was
again on land. This time he was after
honors among the trotters, and he got
them with Lucille. There wasi more or
less fencing by the eastern contingent.
but finally Lucille got after the crack
trotting roadsters, one at a time, and
made every one Of them succumb. The
decisive battle was when she met Cob
webs, PIP, for years the undisputed
champion of the speedway, but he was
clearly not her match.@ But ever after
this showing there were a few carpers.
and some ever went so far as to declare
that Cobwebs beat Lucille in one of their
heats. tl .45 t&rtH ~ ~
