Captured solon D.nsmore.

John F. Heating and c. w. Goddard
went down TO Fishers Island in Long
Island Sound the other day, says the
Tribune, and, assisted by the sheriff of
that county, surrounded and captured Scion
Densmore, who had failed TO keep his
agreement with his bondsman, Mr.. God
dard. Mr.. Densmore refused TO leave the
island, but was taken forcibly, and when
the party reached New London he settled
up. Goddard says, 81 was in the drivers
seat then and ran things to suit myself. "
After paying for the forfeit of the bond
and the trouble caused, Densmore was
allowed to return TO the island and Keat-
ing and Goddard came home. 1t will be
remembered that Densmore was held in
$500 bonds on liquor case, and that God
dard furnished bail which was forfeited
by the non-appearance of the prisoner.

Somewhat MctaDhysicaI

Strikes always entail hardship on the CON-
munity, no matter who is right or who is
wrong. Companies should not give cause for
strikes and laborers should not strike Both
are condemned in Sacred Writ-Cum berland

The companies, when smittcn on one
check for conference, should offer the
other for Il whack and then tumble.
The miners, when told by Warner
they are out for conference. should
turn the other jaw and respond-"no,
the assembly slaps us over and says we
are out for 60 cents.

The FREE FOR ALL TROT
at Columbus Won by Cresceus in
Successive Heats-Helen Simmons
Took the 2:24 Pace,

Il COLUMBUS, Ohio. Aug. 2.-Thc free
for-all trot for stations was the prin-
cipal event on the card to-day, and It
attracted a crowd OF fully 5000 people.
The weather was fair and the track
fast. There were four starters in the
big trot-Cresceus, Grattan Boy, Char
ley Herr and Dare Devil.
Cresceus sold In the auction pools at
$500 to $40 against the field and, with
Cresceus barred, Dare Devil was sold
even with the field. In the first heat
Dare Devil threw shoe before he
reached the first quarter, and was dis
tanced. Grattan Boy had u bad start
and Cresceus won the heat easily In
2:O7h. In the second heat. however,
Grattan Boy gave Crcsceus sharp
brush In the last quarter and forced
ketcham to drive the chestnut horse
out. The last quarter was made in 81.
and the mile in 2:06 fiat. In the third
heat Grattan Boy forcer Cresceus to
the quarter in 81 and to the half in
1:01A. and 1t looked as II all trotting
records were about to be smashed. but
the pace had been too hot for Grattan
Boy and he weakened perceptibly.,
Cresceus went under the wire in q
drive, making the mile in a:o6 fiat.
These were the three fastest heats ever
trotted by q stallion In n race.
Pussy Willow WAS almost n prohibit
tive favorite in the 2:e2 pace. In the
first heat she broke badly and was the
last Of the nine horses that started un-
der the wire. The favorite won In
consecutive heats after that without
being pushed.
There were seven> starters In the 2:24
pace. 1t was practically the same field
that started in the NJ. C NJ. stake race
at Detroit, including Lady Geraldine,
the winner OF that event. Helen Sim
mons sold favoritc In the auction pools.
but Lady Geraldine was backed heav-
lily. The favoritc took the first heat, but
broke badly In the second and that
went to Lady Geraldine. Helen Sim
mons showed lame when she scored for
the third heat and many Of her back
ers hcdged, but the lameness did not
have any apparent effect upon her
speed and she won the third and fourth
heats and the race.
