ually large crowd was in attendance.
There were ten starters for the Matron.
Commando, the unbeaten hero of the
year, was a hot favorite at to 5, while
the Whitney entry was next in demand
at to l, the others ranging from Is to
60 to 1.
On the breakaway. which was bad
one for Bellario and Ashes, Commando
swerved out in the track but Spencer got
him going straight. At the dip Com
mando took the lead and was soon two
lengths in front. Spencer thought he had
the race, and was apparently winning
easily when Bullman brought Beau
Gallant up with rush on the rail. Spen-
Ger did not see him until it was too late
to get his mount going again, and Beau
Gallant snatched victory and earned
the winners share of the purse, $4,000,
for his owner, S. c. Hildreth. The Pa
raider was third.

AN ELOQUENT WELCOME.
Judge C. E. Foote Speaks Good Cheer
to a. o. u. W. Hosts.

In his address of welcome Judge c. E.
Foote said:
Topeka, the most beautiful city in
the most progressive state in the union,
has had the pleasure and the honor of
entertaining a great variety of repre-
sentative gatherings, both state and
national, gatherings in which many dis
tinguished men and women have par
ticipated, with every conceivable OBJ
ject in view, but it is doubtful in my
opinion if this city was ever visited by
a body of men, or of women for that
matter, who We're engaged in a more
commendable calling than the one
which 1 have the honor to welcome here
tonight.
POSSIBLY many of our citizens do not
appreciate nor properly value the i'm
portant work which calls this grand
lodge together and which will employ
your energies and talents for the next
few days. but let me assure you that
those of US who are familiar with the
objects of this organization consider it
a very. great honor to entertain you on
this occasion. and promise you now
that twenty-three hundred of your
brethren in this city will leave nothing
undone to make your stay both pleas
ant and profitable
THE meeting here tonight is not the
result of chance. In fact. I am not
much of a believer in chance, anyway.

and explained how much better the A

was as clearly a man of destiny as was
Abraham Lincoln, and the Ancient Or
der of United Workmen was as much
the offspring of need as was the birth
of this republic Possibly one not so
great as the other, nor the society so
important as the government but all
the subject of destiny, just the same.
Greatness and Importance are compare
tive terms, which are applied to men
and works by people who view things
in general from different standpOints.
1t is therefore difficult for one to de-
termine who is the greatest or what in
life is the most important. In a noun
tain range one peak may be more prom
inent than another, and in the great
heavenly constellation one star may
seem brighter than all others. never
theless all are important in their set
tings. This very question arose in the
