TWO Fast Horses,

Oscar Klonne, one day recently,
laid $40 against half that amount, to
back his pretty, housekeeping road
horse in a race against the horse
owned by August Priebe. The race
of three heats occurred in the southeast
part of town and Priebe won by a
close margin. A large crowd was
attracted and local horsemen claim
that Klonne lost the race by poor
driving. An effort is being made to
arrange for second race and if so
considerable money will be put up on
the result.

Go A-FiShing.

There are few places in the country
which offers superior inducements to
the disciple of Isak Walton than does
Sank Centre. In the first place it
has strictly first-class hotel, whose
landlord is, primarily, interested in
caring for his guests, but having
accomplished that, he interests him
self in giving them a good time. Him
self devoted fisherman, he knows
how, where and when to fish, and his
guests get the benefit of his enthusi-
asm and experience.
Sank Lake at this season offers fine
sport. Pike, pickerel, crappies, and
a few days later black bass are taken
in quantities which are altogether
satisfactory. A little steam yacht,
plenty of fishing boats and easily
obtained bait make fishing a pleasure,
in that it entails no hard work.
And there is Fairy lake-one of the
most perfect little gems in Minnesota's
coronet. It's shores are clean and
gravelly, and it's waters TEEN with
pike, pickerel and bass. 1t is only
four miles from the city, of easy &C
! cess.
Tie Birch Lakes, whose fame is
wide spread, are within easy driving
distance-only nine miles-and one
hardly dare repeat the stories of
phenomenal black bass catches which
float in from there during the season.
Certain it is that any one can find all
the sport there that could reasonably
be expected. And then the lakes are
SO beautiful, with their richly wooded
shores, deep, clear water and at
tractive homes and farms about them.
In addition to this there are streams
near where speckled trout are taken
some of them large and all of them
fine and gamey.
These are but few of the attrac-
tlons which Sank Centre offers at this
season of the year-in fact all through
the summer and fall. If you are in
doubt as to where to 60 when you
want right down healthful and bracing
pleasure-try Sank Centre. If you
come once you will come again.

A feature of the Schenectady county
fairs each year was the trotting races,
in which John Ellis and young Blu
always had entries. 1t is recalled in
Schenectady how on more than one oc-
Casion when the sons horse beat the
fathers the two would get into an
argument over the relative merits of
the horses. When the father was
beaten, he always had an excuse. and
to settle the matter finally, the match
race would be arranged between the
two, each to drive his own horse. If
the son won the match, the father
paid the wager cheerfully and told his
son that he never would have won had
he not had father who knew enough
to teach him how to drive.
When Bud was reaching manhood his
father died. The business of the loco
motive works had greatly increased
since the death of their founder, and.
John Ellis holding a larger block of
stock than any of his brothers, left a
fortune estimated at S2,000,00 or So
000,000 The greater part of this was
left to his only child, Bud. Then be-
gan the wild career which
made the young man fami
liar figure in the Tenderloin. He
lived at the Gilsey House for several
years and then went into bachelor
apartments. About seven years ago
Ellis married Miss Eva Long. of Uti-
ca an actress and member of a we'll
known family. His relatives were not
altogether displeased with the match,
because they hoped that. having mar
ried, the young man would settle
down. He cid, for a time, and went
back to Schenectady with the eX-
pressed resolve of following the bust
ness of his father and grandfather.
The determination held good for only
short period. He Went to New York
one day on business and he never went
back to the shops again. His wife left
him in 1897 and obtained a separat on.

John Porus. full-blooded Penob'
scot Indian. n veteran of the civil war,
having served in the Twenty-fifth reg
iment Connecticut volunteers. is dead
in his lodge on the Penobscot reserva-
tion, Indian island, near Oldtown,
Maine.
While there were few other Maine
Indians in the union ranks, as far as IL
known Porus is the only one who at
tracted any attention by gallant CON
duct or who was seriously wounded.
Porus lost leg at Port Hudson and
drew a pension
At the first call for volunteers he
tried to enlist in Oldtown, but was re-
fused He went to Massachusetts,, and
there was taken for a negro being
very dark, and was also refused an
opportunity. Nothing daunted, he
went to Connecticut, and there was
enlisted.
After his death a small packet was
found carefully wrapped in deerskin.
In this was roll of carefully selected,
thin birch bark, upon which was elab
orately written in Indian dyes his au
photography.
The manuscript is embellished with
rude drawings of war scenes. 1t Will
be sent to the adiutant general of The
state, to be placed in the collection OF
war relics in the state house.
In addition to the birch bark manu-
script was a much worn paper which

care and rarely showed to any one.
1t is letter from the colonel OF hic
regiment, and reads as follows:
Hartford, Conn, Nov 2S, 1866.
"To the Authorities of the State OF
Maine
81 take great pleasure in stating
that John Porus Qndian), now OF Old
town, Me-, served in the Twenty fifth
regiment, Connecticut volunteers, un-
der my command, in the years of 1862
g. He was a faithful, good man,
soldier which | particularly liked for
his GOODNESS and bravery.
He lost his leg by cannon shot
while fighting at the very front. and
he is entitled to all the consideration
which any brave. wounded soldier in
the state of Maine is entitled to, and
hope he will receive state aid.
HE is an Indian, it is true, but
would like to command a regiment OF
just such good men as John Porus
was when he was in my regiment. Re
