Achievement.

LEXINGTON, KY, Oct. 9.-Ozanam,
The brown daughter of AXtell and o.
mia, today won the fourteenth Tran
sylvania, the most classic and next to
the richest stake offered by the Ken
lucky Breeders association. In win
ming his first Pennsylvania Ed Benyon

swiftest one, though Geers drove Prince
of Orange the fastest heat today, low
ering the record for the stake to 2:071a
John Nolan held the record for this
event by trotting heat in 2:0TA i'll
1894. Every heat was under 2:1O and
the average time broke the worlds REG
ord for six heats.
Prince of Orange and Ozanam both
lowered their marks in the race. The
time by quarters in fastest and record
heat was :31%, 1903, 1:95%, 2:071s.
Maj. Delmar, the heavily backed IA
vorite, made a game finish, but had to
be satisfied with third money, the horse
breaking in every heat after winning
the first. The winner was very low in
the pooling until the last heat. Over
100000 went in the box on the event.
Every heat was bitterly fought to the

PREPARING FOR eELoIT GAME.
Coach Williams Puts His Men Through
Another Fast Practice.

The twenty-odd Gopher kickers at
DR.. Williams training table did full
justice to the spread Of juicy steaks
and generous layout of vegetables and
other plain foods after the practice
last evening. The practice was again
behind closed doors. and only favor
ed few were allowed to see the men
work.
At no time this season have the men
been worked harder than during the
past four days. DR.. Williams has not
allowed his kickers to remain idle Tor
a minute while they are on the field,
and the way the Minnesota heroes get
around on the field reminds one of the
hurry up tactics employed by Coach
Yost, of Michigan.
Barring few Of the men who are
out of practice on account Of minor
bruises, DR.. Williams pupils are in
the best of condition. and the only
thing left for them to do now is to
master the fine points of the game.
This the men are doing, and, accord
ing to the wise ones on the outside,
the Gophers are due to show surpris-
ing form in Saturdays game with Be-
lott
Charles Fee, left tackle on last
years team, is in the city, and it is
reported that he will Join Mueller and
others who have been assisting DR..
Williams and Assistant Coach Dobie.
Fee is well qualified for the work, and
his appearance on the field giving in
structions to the men will be of great
value to the team.
Little has been heard from the Be
lott eleven. AS rule, however, this
college turns out fast teams, and Sat
urday's game promises to be worth
seeing. In 1899, the last time Mime
sofa played with Beloit, the game re-
suited in score Of 5 to 5.

EXTRADITED MAN DIES
AT CITY HOSPITAL
Prisoner Is Brought Back to Face
Forgery Charge, but Goes to
Court Above.

eve do not know the actual cause
of DEATH" said City Physician Ancker
last night, when discussing the case of
Robert 2. Wallace, who died at the city
hospital yesterday afternoon.
Wallace was arrested in New York
three weeks ago, charged with forging
$3.50 from the State bank, of st. Paul
He was returned to the city Sept. 20,
accompanied by Deputy Sheriff Har-
dick.
When he was lodged in the county
Jail, Wallace collapsed. DR.. Richeson,
one of the city physicians, attended
him the morning following his arrival,
but it was not until Oct. that the man
was removed to the hospital. In the
meantime he remained in a cell at the
county Jail.
"The case has puzzled us from the
start" continued DR.. Ancker, land the
autopsy tonight has done nothing to-
wards enlightening us as to the cause
of death.
II understood that DR.. Richeson was
the first to handle the case. He made
no report to me, nor did he order the
man removed to the city hospital. At
the jail he told the attendants that
prabably Wallace should be removed
to the hospital, but he made no such
official report"
LII. IbtCHSSOli idSl hight SClu lIldI
when he examined Wallace he thought
that he was feigning. but that he
stated to an attendant at the Jail that
the sick man could be cared for better
at the city hospital.
Miss Daisy K. Wallace, the mans sis
ter, said last night that they had no
complaint to make regarding the treat
ment accorded to her brother by the
county and city authorities. Miss
Wallace stated that her brother had
been ill for over year and that his
death was not unexpected by the fam
lily.
Robert Wallace was twenty-seven
years of age. For a number of years
he had lived in st. Paul. During the
early part of September 1t is alleged
that he forged check on the State
bank for $3.50. He was captured in New
York, where he was arrested for de-
frauding a hack driver out of a fare.
After serving ten days on the island he
was turned over to the Ramsey county
authorities.
The funeral will take place Saturday
from the family residence, 294 Sher-
burne avenue. Interment will be at
GAINESVILLE, MINI.

of the voters of Olmsted county, re-
gardless of political affiliations, prob
ably in a greater degree than any man
In it's public life. Rochester is Repub-
lican, but DR.. Witherstine has been
three times elected mayor. He is popu-
lar, honest and a vote getter. On the
legislative ticket with DR.. Witherstine
are John Chapman, Of Viola, and Joseph
Graham, Of Kalmar, representative men
who have spent their lives in the coun-
ty and whose records are clean.
Besides these peculiarly local condi-
lions, aggravated by a coal famine Is
another sore spot which is directly
chargeable to Van SAINT. The people of
Rochester have for years taken an in
odfnate pride in the great state hos
pital for the insane, located adjoining
the city. Under the local board man.
aSement the Rochester hospital was
recognized throughout the United
States as model for institutions of
its kind. The first day of Van SAINTS
1ncumbency he insisted that the legis-
Iature give him power to appoint a
board of control. The board has been
in existence year. The executive
head of the Rochester hospital has
been retained, but the machinery of in
ternal management is not in his hands
Economies, SO called, have been i'm
posed on the unfortunate wards of the
state. The economies were practiced
along peculiar lines, and 1t is told here
by prominent Republican who is IA
miliarized with the Internal manage
ment that one bath towel is made to
serve several patients. The hospitals
affairs are in such bad shape that the
people have gotten hold of it and are
intensely indignant. They know and
trust the superintendent and naturally
bring the blame home to Van SAINTS
board of control, and Van SAINT will
suffer for it. &c. A. Van Smith.

ciai session of the house of representa-
tives and recommend to it the appoint
ment OF q committee of investigation.
The resolutions continue:
"ThiS conference does not attempt to
| make a judicial or authoritative deci-
sion, but it does express its censure
as to the course pursued by the presi-
dents and owners of the various coal
railroads and various anthracite mines
and their refusal to submit, to proper
arbitration questionsi in dispute between
said railroad companies and coal OPP
orators and the miners, and to express
its profound sympathy for the miners
and their families, and, as evidence of
this sympathy, this conference recon-
mends to the mayors of all the cities
represented here, and to all other cit
les i'll America, that steps be taken by
them to raise a fund to assist In the
support and maintenance of the min
ers and their families
Hope is expressed that the efforts
now being made in New York to settle
the strike will be successful. The ac
ton of President Roosevelt in sat-
tempting to settle the strike by moral
suasion is commended.
Dissolve the Combination.
The following supplemental resolu-
ton was also adopted:
Resolved, That in view of the intoler-
able conditions Wnlch nave been forced
upon the people. the necessities of the
nation demand the immediate opening and
operation OF the anthracite mirfes.a That
we believe Mr.. Mitchells proposition made
to the president that the mine workers
would go to work at once and leave all
questions of difference for future arbitra-
ton was eminently just, fair and patriotic.
That we are firmly convinced that the
present combination of the coal opera tors
is in violation of the federal statutes and
their course is in violation of the rights
of the people.
eve therefore most urgently urge the
president cause proceedings at once to be
instituted to dissolve the combination and
to enjoin the continued infractions of the
law and the immediate appointment of
receiver to operate the mines pending The
final determination of tn case
1--WE further urge that if for any reason
said receiver cannot be obtained, the pres
ident then Immediately call a SPECIAL ses-
sion of congress to enact such legislation
as will make it possible to operate the
mines temporarily through a receiver"

The boat was found the next day on
the South Dakota bank of the river,
and after constant search by large par

and that he would reveal it for $500
cash, the money, in currency, to be
placed in certain letter box in Sioux
City tonight Then, the writer says,
he would deposit a letter telling where
Mrs. Burns is.
The letter was put into the hands OF
the police, and tonight Earl Laque,

cal Lacrosse Team.

What promises to be the feature game
of the st. Paul lacrosse season will be
noon, when the St Paul lacrosse club is
to clash with the Shamrocks, of Montreal,
the champions of all Canada.
The st. Paul players will be reinforced
in the Sunday game by O'Brien Flett and
Bretz. three of the stans who played in
ST Paul with the Sllamrocks of Winnipeg.
The st. Paul club announced last night
that these three men had secured perma
nent positions in the st. Paul business
world, and that they are coming on at
once. With these three men on the team
the game Sunday is sure to be hard
fought one. 2
Remembering the weak points in their
play. discovered during the games with
the Shamroclzs of Winnipeg, the st. Paul
players went through a careful practice
last night. Many new plays are being
tried out, and while the st. Paul team
does not believe it will be able to stop
the champions, the men at the same time
promise that every game scored will be
fought for.

NOT AFRAID OF MARooNs.
Purdue Rioters Are Willing to Bet
That CHICAGO Will Not Score.

LAFAYETTE, Ind, Oct. 9-The Pur-
due football team is practicing on Stu
art field behind closed gates for the
big game with Chicago next Saturday.
There is no one admitted TO the field
except members of the squad and the
coaching party. The game with De
Pauw last Saturday did little toward
giving critics a line on Purdue's
strength, but those who saw the game
expressed pleasure with the attack Of
the boilermakers on the De Pauw's
line.
Nightly there are mass meetings of
students drilling in yells for the root
ing at Marshall field. Special trains
will leave here in the early morning of
next Saturday. and if the present
weather continues there will be about
/ 200 people journey to the Windy City
TO see the gridiron battle.
odds are given by local Sportsmen
that Purdue will not let Chicago score,
so confident is everyone of victory.
There is an enthusiasm about the city
over the coming contest that is seldom
raised over the biggest gridiron contest
of the year at home.

NEW STANDS AT NoRTHRoP.
State University Athletic Field to Have
New BIeachers.

During the past week many changes
have been made on Northrop field and
a large number of improvements have
been the result.
BY the addition Of two new bleachers
the seating capacity at the grounds
has been nearly doubled. One Of the
conditions in the contract made for
the Wisconsin game was that the seat
ing capacity of the field should be at
least $4,000. The condition Of the
grounds, however, will not allow for
that number of seats and as the lar
gest attendance at any game last year
was not more than 5000, it is thought
that the present seating capacity will
be sufficient for any of the games this
year.
The addition Of the new bleachers
will make the seating capacity of the
field about 10000. The coop" for. the
newspaper men on top of the grand
stand has been completed and extends
along the entire length of the stand.
1t will accommodate about forty peo-
pie.
Work will be begun next spring on
the enlargement of the field, as the dis
pute over the adjoining property has
been settled. The field will be doubled
in size and the gridiron will be turned
around so that it will extend east and
west. Bleachers will be built after the
pattern of Franklin field at Philadel-
phia. aef

WISCONSIN TEAM IMPROVES.
Kings Players Work Fast in Practice
With the Scrubs.

MADISON, Wis, Oct 9.-The Wis
censin football team is showing marked
Improvement in offense play, being
able in the practice last night to score
five times on the scrubs in q fifteen
minute scrimmage.
Capt. Junea made a spectacular run
of seventy yards around the end for
q touchdown. His weak ankle still
bothers him and he was able to re-
main in practice only a short time.
Fred Long is doing good work at guard
and will probably stay there. The var
sity lined up as it did the night before.
Coach King says that il the team
does not run up q big score against
Lawrence Saturday it will not be play
ing in the form other Wisconsin teams
have shown at this stage of the sea-
son. He rather expects the team to
make a good showing against the minor
eleven.

DEAD BODIES OF MAN
AND WIFE FOUND
Both Killings Thought to Have Been
Done by the Man Who Slew
Former Wife.

+ INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Oct. 9.-The
bodies of Pleasant Pruitt. aged sixty
two, and wife, Winnie Pruitt, aged
forty-seven, were found side by side
this afternoon in the basement of their
home. Mrs. Pruitt had been killed
with knife, two stabs penetrating the
heart. The face was also terribly mu-
tiliated, one of the eyes being torn
out. Pruitt had been killed by pis-
toll wound in the head. Both had been
dead some time.
The police believe that Pruitt killed
his wife and then himself. The two
had quarreled frequently. Pruitt kill
ed a former wife several years ago.
The coroner pronounced the killing ac-
cidental
