CONSUM N
 CURED. A Boy of Fifteen, Vomiting Quantities of Blood, and Given Up by Doctors to Die In Last Stages of Con- sumption, Marvelously
 Cured by
OUTFITS PURE MALT WHESKEY.
-A I.ErrER FR0M ms FATHER.

A LETTER FROM HIS FATHER.
 Dear Sirs-sMy son Alfred is fifteen years and six months old. He had heart disease very bad, but l never knew he had consumption until the doctor said so. Six weeks ago he yomited d large quanti- ty of blood and for three weeks had hemorrhages three or four times a week. I had a doctor and he prescribed medi- cines that I bought. l don't know the names of them but they did the boy no good; the blood kept on coming in large quantities. Doctor said 1t was no use to come he could do no good. He said 1t was a question of but a few days. l then had to tell him how my son was get ting on, and he would write out another prescription. The case got worse and called in another doctor. He, too, said he could do no good: the boy would dle For a month he could not lie down.
 T had used Duffys Pure Malt Whis- key eight years ago for my wife, and she got well, so I thought as the second that l would try Duffys for Alfred He has used three bottles according to di- rections one teaspoonful 10 three of wa ter, and in two weeks the hemorrhases had stopped and he has had none since. He is up and about his appetite is im- proving by leaps and bounds. l need scarcely say he is a living wonder. We had given him up. but thanks to Dufy's Pure Malt Whiskey, he is alive today and free from the deadly consumption. - JAMES CLARK, 321s Hoyne Avenue, Chira

Illuminate and Zinzibar went out and made the pace for about a mile, with Lavator in third place. In taking the jump on the top of the hill, Lavator took off too soon and fell. Meanwhile, Zinzibar and Fulminate were alternating in the lead. Coming to the water jump the last time around zinzibar was still leading with Eliminate second and the Ragged Cavalier in third place. On the far stretch, the Ragged Cavalier went to the front and looked like an easy winner leading to the last jump. Here. Veitch on Land of Clover, sent him to the front, winning by five lengths, with Ragged Cavalier second, six lengths in front of zinzibar

SILENT AT THE THROTTLE.
Locomotive Engineers Not Inclined to
 Be Communicative.

From the Chicago Tribune.
 Of the men who sit in the cab of locomotive and turn the machine loose in race of 100 miles in 100 minutes it is said they are the most modest individuals of the human family.
 This is a fact said to be clearly shown by talk with any of the Chicago engin- eers who have any such record. It is evidenced not so much from what they say when questioned as from what they do not and cannot be induced to say.
 For not two men in a dozen of fast run ners are given to talk about what they have accomplished. Much less are they inclined to pass any opinion of the capa- bilities of any other enginer
 Take it all in all, the men who ride the iron horse in races that are appalling are the oldest characters in the jumpers of mechanic. A short time ago a special train was chartered to make fast run down the country. The engineer in talk ing coal at a station was delayed by the coal shot apron becoming unmanageable The man who sat in the cab ahead was as cool as an iceberg, but no sooner had the apron been hoisted out of the way than he opened up the valve and began race that for speed and smoothness was one of a thousand
 Arriving at our destination" said the conductor who had charge of the train. ''the engineer found awaiting him tele- gram from the general superintendent of the road, who paid him the highest com pliment that an official could extend to an employee. The man read the telegram and showed it into the pocket of his blouse without a change of countenance. No one from looking under the peak of his cap could tell what sort of a feeling had been awakened, even if it affected him at all.'
 A fast runner. being approached by an outsider, who wants to know something about the life of an engineer, will invar- fable be asked to see So-and-so. who is another engineer on the same run or div ision.
 Hes mighty good engineer and can tell you more of what you want to know than l can."s And then he goes about his puffing steed feeling for hot places and polxing long spouted oler under the ma- chinery. It is 10 to that the other man

Worthy to Receive Pension.

From the New York Times.
 A certain charitable organization in the city had a request the other day from a young Italian threatened with consump- ton who wanted to get back to Italy in the hope of saving his life. An agent was sent to investigate. and, as usual, asked the young mans mother for list of the members of the family. The blanks fur nished for this formality have nine spaces left for children. The agent filled up one blank and still the list went on. She fill ed up two blanks without a word, the list of children stopping at eighteen. When she turned her report 1t embraced the following recommendation; That the boy be sent to Italy, and that the mother be recommended to President Roosevelt for n pension"

 One of the most benefcent features of our modern educational work is that of the school gardens. Through pleasant outdoor occupation it brings the children into delightful contact with nature. It gives them something interesting to do and to think about. It improves them mentally, morally and physically, and is one of the most potent of instruments for expanding their minds and their soulx by casting the light of understanding upon some of the mysteries of life and growth. This work has been made a reg ular feature in several of our Boston publis schools. and has been so extraor- dinarly successful that it should be in- troduced as part of the course in all

will get out of it in the same way.

Few engineers who have been found out Of fast runners will make any comparisons of any kind of their runs with those of other engineers. There is one thing, how ever, about which an engineer of this class is "touchy." Suppose he had made fast run, but has been laid out or delayed from one cause or another. He invari- ably wants that delay deducted from the total time of the run.
 Railroad men say that the longer a man runs an engine the longer he wants to- He is in love with his dangerous calling and he is a yeritable duck out of the water when once he realizes that he is laid off for all times

 FOR MAJOR DELMAR Gallant Horse Couldn't Go Mlle
 in Less Than 2;03 STARTERS DISAPPOINTED

 But the Wind Checked the
 Major Up in the Stretch.

Cincinnati, October 3.-The meeting at Oakley Park, the last of the Grand Cir cult of 1903, Ias brought to a successful close this afternoon, and the light har- ness brigade is tonight moving to Lex ington, where the Kentucky Trotting Horsebreeders association's twelve days meeting will be held. The splendid sun and the high wind of the morning dried the track out until 1t was at it's best. It was expected by the 5000 persons who had turned out for the afternoon that Major Delmar would equal, if not lower, the worlds trotting record of 200, but they were disappointed. as was E. E. Smathers, owner of the great gelding, who had come from the east to see the performance. The second time down, Mcdonald nodded for the word and they were away with the speed of an ex- press train. Around the first turn and past the first eighth pole in 15 seconds; to the quarter in 30A. But when he hit the back stretch the Major was putting them down and taking them up so fast that the jockeys had to urge their mounts to keep pace with him. To the half in 59A, and the stand broke Into cheer. Around the far turn and to the three-quarters in 1.9Oh, the geding be- gan stopping. Turning into the stretch, the wind hit him full in the face and he began backing up. He got to the wire in 2:03
 It had been pretty well demonstrated that the wind shield is q necessary ad- junct to the two-minute trotter, and in the case of Major Delmar, if in no other, it has been shown that two such exhi- bitions in a week, Is one too many.
