with A. F. Scoville under the firm name
of Scoville & Wheeler. The firm be-
gan in a small way but has prospered
greatly and if it continues to give the
satisfaction to all for whom it does
work as it did to the town of Gardner
on the recent job, it's future success is
assured.
There was more activity in real es-
tate circles last week than was the
case the previous week and many con-
veyances which have been hanging
fire for some time were closed and
duly recorded. Worcester, of course,
led while Leominster was a close sec
ond and Fitchburg a good third. Su-
burban property on the new electric
lines took a sudden boom and Worces-
ter dealers who have numerous sales
listed were correspondingly happy.
Men who follow the land and gravel
business look for a cessation in out of
town movements and a transfer of the
general life of the business to the city
suburbs proper Indeed dealers who
hold many of these particular plots
are exhibiting no concern whatever
and state without reserve that their
time will come in the near future. The
conveyances7 recorded with Worcester
County Registry of Deeds follow:

The last trotting and pacing meet Is,
over for the year as far as the Wor
cester Driving Club is concerned and
1t was a great success,
Billy Baggs and his estimable wifi
viewed the races Friday from a hack
There is not more thorough or gentle
manly horseman than Mr.. Baggs and
it is too bad that disease so AFFECTS him
1t doesn't always do because a mar
buys a great trotting or pacing horse
at fabulous price to tell what he car
beat or that he is the horse of tn
boulevard to sleigh. Old Sports mem
DRY carries him back to the days
that paragon Of horsemen and road
rider, Joe Hill. Joe once bought a hors
in Boston at big price and brough
him to Worcester. The Millbury road
was then the speedway Mr.. Hill in
vited us to ride after his new pur-
chase. After getting down by the wa
tering trough, Joe spied a Frenchman
ahead with a rakish looking rig. I'll
make that fellow look like 80 cents
said Joe. So we sped on but the
Frenchman set sail with his PAGER
and we couldn't get by, The more we
tried the more we were beaten. Joe
he could beat him but the man only
turned his head and laughed. His
whole rig wasn't worth SIS but he
could beat us.
The horses will soon be in winter
quarters and the drivers will be trot
ting around the stove and many ha-
ha will be had when they tell one an
other how they jollied the horse re-
porters.
How many old timers are there alive
who can remember the days when they
raced at old Uncle John Sherman's
track on the old Millbury road when
Lady Sherman, Telemachus and Old
Tom Hyer would contend for purses
and then compare them with the
horses of today.
In answer to a question we would
say that Dexter made his fastest mile
at Buffalo, June, 1867, and was pur-
chased at once by Robert Bonner Of
the New York Ledger
If it had been still day the horse
in the first race Friday, at least Conner |
would have made the track record look
obscure. But the wind down the
stretches was terrific.
Annie Leyburn. the great pacing
mare, has been winning races in York
State.
The mare Juno owned by Landlord

from another year.

of Clinton, won his race last week. He
was superbly driven by Allie Trent.
The Benton M. colt, owned by Levi
Lincoln, was shown on the track last
week. Another year this colt will go
down the circuit.
George Hammond of Charlton owns
Gov. Benton colt that is not only fast
but is a good roadster, and carries his
owner over Charlton hills with remark
able ease.
Fred Sturtevant, mine host of the
Eagleville Hotel, Holden, has bought
the Petts colt OF Benton stock. This
colt can show a mile in the eos and
will be tracked next season.
There have been more good and fast
horses owned and raised in Worcester
County than any place on the map.
The Worcester Driving Club has
great future before 1t If ii but only
grasps the opportunity. A horse show
can be held next year under its auspl-
ces. The Worcester Agricultural So
ciety Is but one in name only. It's
death knell was sounded at its last an
nual meeting. An exhibition second
only to Brockton could be held with
not only profit but with a benefit to
everybody in general. Surely Worces-
ter County is the place to do that and
Worcester the city to have the fair.
Sam Porter's beautiful mare, Stella,
was driven, between heats Friday, by
John Kerylck, a half mile in 1:22, and
a quarter in "a seconds. If there had
not been terrific wind blowing at the
time this mare would have made IL in
1908 or better. There are few horses
in Worcester that can lead this mare,
Stella, down the Boulevard. Not only
a great trotter but a superb family
horse is this mare Stella.
Westfield is to be probably the last
Of the race meets this season.
Who will be the champion OF the
Boulevard on the snow is a matter of
determination. There are many good
horses in Worcester. and time will tell.

Notes From Dealers

John H. Donnelly, of the Donnelly
Farm Agency was made, by some ~
biographical mixup, to appear as espec
tally catering to women. 1t was the
intention of the item which appeared
to state that "YEOMAN," appeared in
numbers. The word appeared as won
en-. Hence Mr. Donnelly's unpleasant
dilemma when he met his friends.
Apparent Indignation was expressed
last night by one dealer when he found
that he had received a free ad in the
best advertising medium in Worceste
County. His friends smiled at his
outbursts but failed to warn The Spy
man to procure a gan" for mis- self
protection.
Pierce, in the State Mutual building
was everywhere, all at once last week
to keep apace with the business which
overwhelmed him. Everybody got
their Just deserts, however and the en-
ergetic dealer says things about The
Spy real estate and to let ads which
have no uncertain sound.
A. G. Stanhope in the State Mutual
building is enc Of the new ones, but
is a conner.
Now" said the chair-warmer, and
non advertiser, Il don't want to ,ad-
vertise l spent 70 cents in the -
last week and l have had no business
as a result" Of course not, he did not
use The Spy columns.
P H. Duprey in Walker building is
doing a thriving business in real estate
and other adjuncts to his regular bus
mess.
The agency of f. A. Sears in Walker
building is among those in the front
rank as was emphatically in evidence
last week.
Minckler, in the State Mutual build
ing has some announcements of value
in the advertising columns of The Spy
Rich Brothers, in Builders Exchange
are among the most familiar men in
the city regarding suburban values.
They come from the home Of the ex-
mayor and a climb up Charlton grade
to show property is as pleasurable to
them as a trip to the various other Sec
tfons in which they have property
listed.
Next week look for the closing OF
some especially interesting deals in all
sections Of the city and nearby SUI
burbs.

WEBSTER MAN FOUND
THE GOING HARD

Arthur Hiscox. 40 years old, hiked
in from Webster Saturday with some
thing like $50 in his jeans. He dis
posed Of goodly portion of 1t in the
saloons and in running after his Web
ster car on Southbridge Street tripped
and fell headlong, inflicting bad cash
over his right eye. His wound was
dressed at Station l by DR.. A. G. Doten
and Arthur was booked for being drunk
He then had S9S75 in his possession.
He was later bailed out but will have
to show up and talk it over with Pro-
baton officer Col. e. ]. Russell this
morning before he is allowed to go.

SAUNDERS WIFE REFUSED
TO ALLOW HIM TO ENTER

Thomas Saunders fell down stairs in
a house on fremont Street yesterday
afternoon. The people in the house
were alarmed at the mans condition
and summoned the police ambulance.
Dr. A. C. Doten who accompanied the
ambulance saw at a glance that the
man was not injured as badly as he
and his friends supposed. In fact the
doctor thought that If he had not i'm
bibed so much he would have been all
right The ambulance conveyed Saun-
ders to his home on Beach Street but
his wife refused to receive her spouse.
Accordingly the ambulance took the
fellow to the City Hospital. He was
kept there for a few hours and then
allowed to go. The physicians at the
hospital said there was nothing the
matter with Saunders.

The Greatest Thing I'm the World.

The Greatest Thing I'm the World.
The whole of New England and, In fact,
the whole world is talking of the Pan
American Exposition, which opened on
May and continues until November /,
1901. 1t is by far the most complete and
artistic Exposition ever gotten up, and
everything on exhibition Is we'll worth
seeing.
New Englanders will be particularly in
terested in the Manufacturers and Ma
chinery Exhibits, so close is their con-
nection to the interests therein contained,
yet the wonderful exhibits In Uncle Sans
three buildings and In the Electricity
Building will prove instructive and prof
table to every visitor. There Is no branch
in science or industry that Is not repre-
sented neither Is there country In the
Western Hemisphere but what has deem
ed 1t advisable to exhibit at Buffalo, and
you can depend upon it that everything
worth seeing will be shown.
Buffalo Is just the city for great expo
sition. Its location Is on the shores of
Lake Erie, assuring cool and delightful
temperature. Its every street Is like a
park, and all its environs are conducive
of pleasure. A delightful ride of less
than an hour takes you to Niagara Falls,
which is one of the greatest natural at
fractions in the world.
The best line to Buffalo from any point
in New England Is via. the Boston &
Maine r. r. This route lies through the
famed Berkshire and Hoosac valleys, than
which there Is none more beautiful. The
Boston & Maine has arranged for low
rates to Buffalo from all points on its
line, and If you are going to the great
show send to the General Pass. Dept, B.
4 M. r. R., Boston, for information.
