4 NEW FAST MOTOR.
Four-Horse Power Motor Attached tc
 CaIdweiI's Racing Outfit,

NHAnTo's AhhSthS ou'hss
 Harry Caldwell the Manchester giant, who is to meet Howard Freeman, the Portland (Oregon) paced follower in a thirty y-nlile rnotor-paced race at the New Haven Coliseum tomorrow night, has just added new single four-horse- power motor to his pacing outfit, which, he says, will discount any similar type of machine ever built in this country. It is faster, Caldwell says, than the eel ebrated Blue motor which has been used in two races at the local track this year with perfectly satisfactory results. Caldwell will have both machines on the track tomorrow night, when he meets Freeman, and is confident that he will surely defeat the western cy- clist. who has performed so we'll in the east this year. Freeman has met all the big cracks, including Champion Bikes. Walthour, Mcfarland and Nell son, and has repeatedly lowered worlds records in fast competition. Freeman will have the use of Albert Champions celebrated French singles. which are claimed to be the fastest in the world The spectacle of these two speed giants whirling around the little .eight-lap track at almost mile-a- minute clip will be worth seeing, and, judging from the demand for seats, the crowd will excel in size the multitude that turned out last week at the grand circuit meet here.
 Manager Voigt's plan of giving first class sport by arranging contests be- tween the very best riders is meeting with splendid appreciation, and New Haven to-day is rated as one of the best cycle towns in the country as the result.
 Reserved seats for Wednesdays races can be secured at s. Goodman's, S2O Chapel street.

Minneapolis, Minn., Sept. 1.-General Ell Terrence, ommander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, has issued an appeal addressed to the Grand Army veterans asking that they con tribute funds to aid in the erection of home for ex-confederate veterans now being built at Mission Creek, Ala.

Il Is a fact not usually known that com

find the Dutchman, with his huge clasp

find the home life and the school.
The settlers Of New Amsterdam did not
fee their home country. but came with
the approval of the Government. They
bought and paid for Manhattan Island
when they occupied IL. and cultivated hon

The Plight Of John Allen.


The philadelphia North American"
says one Of the funniest stories with
which Private John Allen is connected
was told about him and not by
him. He was coming to Wash
ington from Atlanta with party OF
Congressman. and secured a berth in a
sleeping car that came only to Columbia.
s. c.. while the others OF the party had
berths in the sleeper that ran through TO
the Capital There were no women in
either car. and during the evening a
game of poker was suggested.
Get Allen" some one said.
Allen was found sleeping in his berth
but when told what was wanted he woke
up and Joined the party ahead. arrayed
only in his pajamas. The game was inter-
esting and il lasted through the night and
well into the morning. Then il stopped 10
permit the players to set breakfast.
Allen started back to his own car lie
realized Tor the first time when he
reached the door. that the car with all mis-
clothes and baggage had be q switched
on az Columbia and was already a hun
dred miles or more behind.
The unusual spectacle Of a Congressman
arriving at the Capital arraycd in a suit
Of paiamas and a borrowed overcCat and
driving hastily home Ia a closed carriage
is 5till regarded as one Of the most start
ling sights witnessed IN Washington.
