PACING RECORD EQUALED.
Dan Patch Comes Up to Star Pointers
Race at ReadviIlc, Mass.

Dan Patch Comes Up to Star Pointers
Race at ReadviIlc, Mass.
READVILLE, Mass, Sept. 24.-Dan
Patch, the famous PAGER, went against
the worlds record of 1894, made by
Star Pointer on the Readville track
five years ago, yesterday afternoon
and in truly magnificent performance
equaled the record.
Depending upon memory, it seemed
to horsemen who saw Star Pointers
performance that the conditions yes
terday were identical, and that meant
as near perfect as day could be.
Dan Patch was brought out for q
warming up mile with runner as
pacemaker. Without an effort he went
the distance in 2:l3 Half an hour
later the handsome black PAGER came
out for his trial against time.
AS in the other mile runner was
sent out ahead. No time was lost in
scoring, and Myron McHenry nodded
the first time down for the wire, and
a hundred watches caught the start.
The PAGER had his stride from the
word, and there was not a skip for the
whole-mle, his legs moving with per-
feet regularity. 1t was not until the
third quarter that every one felt con
vinced that the record was in danger.
Up the stretch came the PAGER, beating
out the runner and flashing under the
wire worthy mate for Star Pointer,
his time being :59A. Driver McHen-
ry was wildly cheerrd.

ADAMS TAX MONEY
COLLECTOR DICkEY HAS
REFUNDED ALL BUT $1,000.

Former Tax Collector Lewis Dick
ey has refunded nearly all Of the
Adams taxes paid by persons in the
Southern district, hut as yet Collec-
tor John p. Donahoe has returned
but little Of the money in the North
ern district.
Henry c. Conrad. attorney for

body that, on behalf Of the finance
committee, he had conferred with
Mr.. Dickey about the refunding Of
the Adams tax he had collected
prior to the Adams law being de-
clared unconstitutional by the state
judiciary. Mr.. Dickey explained to
Mr.. Conrad that he has refunded to
those who paid it, all but 1920 of
the amount he had collected, and he
said he is ready at any time to turn
the 5000, and all receipts and
vouchers covering the money he has
refunded over to the Levy Court
provided his bondsmen shall be re-
leased from further responsibility.

status Of John p. Donahoe's collec
tions. He has about $14, 900 in
Adams tax money that he collected
and has neither turned into the

WHILE the President is on his
present tour, nobody will hear or
read of a single word from him
which will lead any one to think
that he wants to have any tariff
tinkering.
On the tariff, as on the other
questions, as the Presidents words
in his message to Congress and IN
his addresses show, he stands with
the masses of the Republican par
ty. There is complete harmony in
tie party on the tariff, as on all
other issues. A few Of the Demo-
cratic papers are trying to make
themselves believe that Henderson's
refusal to run for office again means
that there is a conflict in the party
on the tariff. Nothing of the sort
is the case. Henderson's withdraw
has created great deal of surprise,
but it does not mean that there is
any feud in the party, or that the
party is uncertain as to the result
either in Henderson's district or in
the country at large. Henderson's
successor from the Iowa district
will be a Republican. His success
or in the speakership will be Re-
publican.
During his tour the President
will psss through country which
is pleased with the Republican par
ty, and which will, in November,
give it another lease of power IN
Congress. When the President en-
ters Iowa, he will find that the
masses of the Republicans there
occupy precisely the same position
on the tariff that is held by the par
ty in the rest of the countay. The
coterie which is asking for tariff re-
vision is SO far in the minority IN
Iowa that it is attracting no partlc-
ular attention.
T. The Republican party has seldom
been in better shape to wage Wln-
ming canvass than 1t Is III at this
time. If Henderson's withdrawal
gives any encouragement to the
Democracy, 80 much tho worse fol
that party. The Republicans ar
united, aggressive and enthusiastic
