Fanny Billiard beats the Favorite
in 200 Pace.
NEW YORK, Sept 1.-THE second day
of the Grand Circuit meeting at the En-
pire City. track had a irst-c.ass card,
which resulted in fast time ana sensa-
tional racing. The weather was perfect
and the track exceedingly fast
Speculation was lively and heavy. Nine
started in the 2:30 trot and the chestnut
horse Maj. Greer was at once made the
favorite at leo to SO. The race was never
in doubt, as the favorite won in straight
heats. with quite little in hand.
In the first heat the brown gelding
i Tiverton was a good second, though it
was his first race, while Dolly Bidwell
was a close second in the other two.
The keenest race of the day was the
2:O9 pace for which the bay geIding Har-
ry o was so hot choice that he sold
at even money against a strong field of
seven. He won the first and second heats
in close and whipping finishes. Fanny
billiard then flashed to the front with a
couple The fifth heat looked as if it
would decide the race, as Harry o ap-
peared to be winning in the stretch, but
in a cracking finish VIII Leyburn won by
half a length. In the sixth heat Fanny
billiard led a tired party home in 2:09 by
a length.
The 2:O5 pace had only four starters, and
Frank Bogash sold at 100 to SO, in spite
of the high reputation of the black geld
ing Conner. This was race which fin
ished in three heats, each heat being in
fact a race. Conner won the first heat
in the sensational time of 2:034. The
finish in the second heat was a hair-rais-
ing one, as Frank Bogash, Conner and
Royal r Sheldon came down the stretch
together and shot under the wire so close
together that it took the judges to place
them, the heat going to Sheldon. Conner
won the third heat in a whipping finish.

Anthracite to Be Advanced.

While comparatively no anthracite
coal is being sold this month, the ira de
Is in fairly good condition. At meet
Ing of the coal salesagents in New
York last week the whole situation was
discussed and it was decided to reduce
the production and make an advance of
95 cents ton at tidewater points on
July l. The anthracite companies have
been mining large amount of coal this
year, the production up to May 81 being
nearly 100000 tons greater than for
the same period last year. Even with
this increase, stocks are smaller than
usual at this season, and 1t is stated
the amount is fully one-half below what
1T was in 1899. The feeling is that
actual prices will be little changed until
after the summer months.

Burgess Is a Citizen.

1t has been satisfactorily shown to the
court that Burgess p. j. Calpin, of
Sugar Notch, is citizen of the United
States and the bottom at once fell out
of the quo warranto proceedings to oust
him from office. 1t was alleged that
Mr.. Calpin was not a citizen, but still a
British subject, and certificates were
laid before the court from the clerk of
the courts and the prothonotary to the
effect that the records of their office
did not show that Mr.. Calpin had ever
taken out naturalization papers.
On Monday District Attorney Martin
moved that the quo warrnnto proceed
ings be dismissed and the writ quashed.
He stated that Mr.. Calpin came to the
United States with his parents when a
child and that the records showed that
his father had become naturalized be-
fore his son, the present burgess of
Sugar Notch, was is years of age. As
this was sufficient proof that Mr. Calpin
is a citizen, the motion was granted.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1900-06-28

At a meeting Of council last evening

the committee to award the contract
to the best, cheapest and most respon-
sible bidder.
The street committee was instructed
to have wall, coping and steps built
in front of Charles Shiffer's property on
