BREED TO RECORDS.

j. Malcolm Forbes of Boston, who III
Bingen, 2:061z, Peter the Great, 2: 07A
and Arion, 2:07%, has three of the best
trotting stations in the world, evil
IDENTIFY has not much faith in the argu-
ments of those who decry the use of
stations and mares with fast records
for breeding purposes.
The contention of these theorists is
that 1T is unwise to breed to stations
that have been campaigned until they
took fast records, or that were Sc
verely trained as colts, or to use as
matrons mares whose speed was fully
developed by racing. Such animals,
they claim, have lost much of the vi
tality that is necessary for the produc-
ton of strong, healthy foals, and they
also hold that there is no great advan-
tage in the way of possible speed pro-
duction to be gained by using for
breeding purposes trotters and PAGERS
that have shown their ability to win
races. Mr.. Forbes, in adopting just
the opposite view, is following in the
footsteps of Lord Falmouth, the most
successful breeder of thoroughbreds
England ever knew.
Breed to the Derby winner" was
the dictum of Admiral Rous, great
authority on all things pertaining to
the turf All three of Mr.. Forbes stall
lions were trained in colthood. Arion
holds the record for that age, 2:10%. to
high-wheel sulky. Bingen trotted a
public mile in 2:121s when 8 years old,
making him only little inferior to
Arion in speed at tender age. Peter
the Great was second to the winner in
the Kentucky Futurity for 2-year-olds
when the record for FLIES of that age
was set at 2:14 by jamie H. He won
the 3-year-old division of the same
stake In 2;121a, and, as a 4-year-old
trotted in 2:07A, and showed himself
one of the greatest racehorse trotters
ever foaled He is in training again
this season, and reported going better
than ever.

SENATOR'S Idea of Delight.

Senator John w. Daniel, the sena-
tor-lawyer from Lynchburg, Va, is
known to America as one of the most
brilliant orators in the United States
Senate, and he is known both in
Washington and the south as one of
the most vigorous of southern men.
To see him, to hear him talk, to re-
member the amount of work he has
done in his day, is to believe him a
man without a lazy bone in his
body" None of the traditional in
dolence of the south, therefore, would
be associated with Senator Daniel. Yet
when he was asked recently what
would now give him the most pleas
ure, he said: THE very thing which
intend to do and which I always do
at the end of every term; go back to
Lynchburg and get myself a NICE
clean, comfortable soap box and tilt it
up against the front door of a grocery
shop 1 know; then sit out there and
bask in the sun like an alligator while
white stick with a sharp pen
knife. If you want to know what an
absolute life is, come down to Vir-
ginia and sit on that soap box with

One of the reigning favorites at the
court of Queen Alexandra of Great

not alone her beauty that has served
to make her popular; her kindness of

Some idea Of the value of the coal
deposits in Indian Territory can be
gained when 1t is known the average
thickness of the vein is four feet,
which will produce 1000 tons an acre.
These lands are leased In lots OF $50
acres each. which means that $500, 900
to 100000 tons can be produced by
those leasing the land. On this output
the lsssees pay royalty of eight cents

How Navles Promote sh,pbu,ld,nr.

1t is almost an axiom that the mer-

proportion to her development as a

yards were started chiefly to get the
contracts for constructing naval YES

unsurpassed liberality, provided all re-

per cent of the American exports are
carried in American bottoms, and
there are only about 100 American

largest of these, the st. Louis, st. Paul,
Philadelphia and New York, belong to

It would seem that the species sail
or is about to become extinct. 1t is
only with the most careful nursing
and artificial training that specimens
are secured nowadays. For several
years past the American navy has
been forced to the scheme of drafting
country boys from farms and field,
putting them on training ships and
sending them around the world to pick
up the tricks of the nautical trade.
Now comes word from England that
the British navy is in the same diem

SHOOTING AT CLOUDS.
PECULIAR CANNON USED I'm
ITALY AND FRANCE.
1000 of tho Guns in Use-Blast of
Air Tears vapor Masses Ia shreds
and Causes Rain to Fall Instead of
Ice.



The system of fighting hail clouds
by means of specially constructed can
non has now been adopted with great
success throughout the north of Italy
and Is gradually becoming known and
appreciated even in the less up-to-date
provinces of the south. In the south
of France also these cannon are COM
ing into extensive use.
Each cannon is of the shape of an
inverted cone, the opening at the
mouth being 281s inches wide. 1t is
planted upon tripod feet high. The
gun itself is feet inches high above
the tripod 1t is made of thin boiler
iron. At its base is forged breech
which holds a forged iron block. In
the center of this block is an aperture
6 inches long, about the size of a
large dynamite cartridge, in which is
placed a metallic cartridge containing
eighty grams of blasting powder
wadded with cork and tamped like
an ordinary miners blast. 1t is dis
charged by a needle on a lever at
tached to the base of the forged iron
holder. The defamation is very loud.
AS soon as the lanyard is pulled
flame is visible at the mouth of the
gun, followed Immediately by wreath
of smoke. A shrill whistling sound
Immediately follows the firing of the
cannon and is heard for fourteen sec
onds. At distance this whistling is
much louder than near the gun. 1t

half miles in fourteen seconds. The
expense of equipping a shooting sta

being $500.

damage are caused every year by hail

not surprising that the new methods
should have been so eagerly welcomed,
and that in so short space of time,
barely two years, since their introduce
ton they should already have been so
generally adopted in Italy.

Another member of the Bergen fam

his wife and three children and then

loaded with Blank Cartridges.


Needless to say that the funnel
shaped pieces of ordnance are loaded
with blank cartridges, but the atmos-
pheric displacement caused by the ex-
plosion is so violent, and the effects
of the column of hot air so telling on
the clouds where the mysterious pro-
cess of the formation of hail is going
on that those subtle physical condi-
lions indispensable to the genesis of
hail are destroyed, with the result that
flakes of snow or beneficial showers
of rain descend on the vineyards in
stead of the murderous bullets of ice.
Danger in Use of tho Cannon.
Before cannon is placed on the
market 1t is carefully tested Hitherto
the results have been so encouraging
that 1t is proposed to render the de-
tense of all vineyards by means of
cannon obligatory. and bill to this
effect is now before the Italian par
lament. The government facilitates
the efforts of vine growers by supply
ing them with powder at cost price.
There are now no fewer than 1000 of
these cannon In use throughout Italy.
1t must not be thought that fighting
the clouds is entirely free from danger,
as the casualty list for last year
amounted to ten killed and 800 wound
ed, the accidents being chiefly caused
by inexperience or by the bursting OF
the cannon. Should the bill now un-
der consideration be definitely ap-
proved 1t will also provide for the OBJ
ugatory insurance of the peasants.

LOS ANGELES NINE WINS GAME FROM OAKLAND BY DEFAUL
Ewing Men Adopt Datoy Tactics in Order That Contest Might
Be Declared Draw but They Overtax Umpire Hardie'
Paerce and He Forfes the Morning Game Southons
OS ANGELES took both games
from Oakland yesterday. The
morning game was won by de-
fault, while the score at Recrea-


IL fault, while the score at Recrea-
ton Park was to 8. The fea-
ture of the afternoon game was the reap
pearance of Rube Levy as umpire. He
was loudly applauded as he walked on
the field. His decisions gave satisfaction
although he had some close plays to pass
upon
Los Angeles sent Kihm and Reitz home
in the second inning and Reilly in the
fifth.
Oakland dropped into hitting streak in
the sixth and tied the score, Moskiman-
being the individual who received the ma
jor portion of the applause. While Spies
and Reilly were trying to catch Strcib be-
tween third base and home, in which they
finally succeeded, Moskiman stole second
and third. He scored on Babbitt's safe
hit. Dunleavy was out at first, retiring
the side. From the manner in which Oak
land landed on McPartlin's S curves in this
inning it seemed they had the Angels on
the run. This ended their run getting,
however.
Los Angeles secured three runs on five
hits in the eighth. In the seventh it had
the bases full with two out. Householder
hit a fly over to the right field fence,
which Moskiman gathered in, retiring
the side.
The same teams will play regular
scheduled game this afternoon. The
score:
