NO NEW TRACK, SAYS SENATOR SULLIVAN

story to the effect that he had completed plans for
a new thoroughbred racetrack on Long Island. and
that IL probable that there would consequently

tracks dates to be given TO the new track
The Senator said that he had given the subject no

declared that new track would ever be started

noon a buggy from town drove up to
the house, and a we'll dressed and
handsome young man of 80 got out.
1t happened that the younger of the
two girls, a pretty little child of u,
was looking out of the window as he
LismOunted. and she ran at once out
into the yard, shouting: Hello,
Uncle Fred! Pm so glad to see you!"
The young man stopped, stopped
down and picked up the little girl in
his arms. She put her arms around
his neck and kissed him. Then, still
carrying her, he walked up to the
front door. There the elder sister, a
blooming maiden of IS, was waiting.
"Ellen," said the small child. "here's
Uncle Fred. Now you must kiss him"
Greatly blushing the elder sister
put up her lips to be kissed, and then
the three sat down in the parlor to-
gether. When the head of the family
got back from the fields the caller
rose, handed him a card which set
forth that he was the travelling rep
resentatiVe of a Chicago agricultural
implement house, and asked if there
was anything in his line needed.
When Uncle Fred really arrived the
next day neither of the two girls,
says the Chicago Tribune, would 90

MURDER AND THEFT.
Confessed by Criminals While Ly-
ing in Bed Asleep.
Dramatic Episodes Collected from
the Police Archives of Many
COuntries-SIeep the Friend
OF the Righteous Only.

Criminologists say that the greatest
terror that affiicts that fraction of
humanity suffering from an uneasy
conscience is not dread of the police,
by any means, nor awe of any other
acknowledged enemy of law-defers.
What the criminal breads is sleep.
Sleep is, it appears, the friend of
the righteous only. To men with the
knowledge of darS deeds stored with
in them sleep is tae most treacherous
of foes. The countless poems that
have been written n praise of it very
naturally appear as so much cold
blooded mockery to such as are IN
hourly dread of betraying themselves
under its influence.
An untold number OF crimes have
been confessed by their perpetrators
during sleep. Is it any wonder, asks
the New York World, that those con-
scious of irregularities of conduct
prefer to remain awake?
1t was not long ago that a we'll

long-winded confession regarding sew
eral daring jewel robberies wherein
he had taken part. Much impressed,
the official kept an eye on him. Fur.
ther inquiries proved that the confes-
sion had been an exact record of what
had taken place.
Perhaps the entire history of crime
contains no more drama tic episode
than that which occurred some years
ago in a Prussian township. The hus

Young Hunter Is Attacked by a Sav.

A young hunter was killed and

wild animal among the pine bluffs
near Glendale, 20 miles from Metrop-
oils, Ill, on Saturday. The young
man, who was about p years of age,
was out with his gun in the noun
famous country near Glendale when
he was apparently suddenly attacked
by the beast, which the signs showed
had crOuched in a tree above, and
after a brief struggle was killed. An

of his rivals disa ppearance the woman
consented to marry him, and they
were united at the parish church.
Now comes the sequel. On the sec.
ond night following the wedding the
newly-made bride lay awake, unable
to slumbeT. Presently there came a
gurgling cry from the sleeping form
beside her, and a moment later the
man leaped from his bed and in a loud
voice proclaimed that he had killed
the missing husband and had buried
the body in a neighboring wood. This
statement the sleeper reiterated sev.
