RACING SCENE WILL
CHANGE TO THE SEA,

Next week the army of race followers
and employees will journey to Saratoga,
where the great thoroughbreds of the
country will strive for supremacy for
the next thirty days. 1t is on the mag
nificent track at the Spa that the great
McChesney and Waterboy will decide
the right to supremacy. These two
great horses will meet in several diff
ferent events at various distances, and
at the end of the meeting the claims
of the owners of both horses will be
established one way or another.
There is a charm about racing at
Saratoga which one does not feel at
any other track in the Jockey Club cir
cult. 1t is all SO different. The envi-
ronment is so attractive. One feels
that it is real sport, that he is a part
of a holiday crowd out for lark. One

SAYS the Cleveland Raiudealev: It begins to
look if China considers the United States to be
her last bulwark against Russian aggression. It is
strange and little pathetic to her turning
in her despair to the one power Of the earth which
for years has refused to admit her children to cit
izenship or even to residence. This appeal Of the
Oldest nation in the world to the youngest will be in
vain. There is only way in which the United
States or any other power can prevent the absorb
ton or dismemberment of the Celestial empire by
her rapacious neighbor, and American interests at
present are not important enough to warrant re-
sort to the only means that possibly avert pre-
vent China's fate.

Kipling is the writer of the present who
be compared to Harte, and dissimilar the two
in every way, their singularly alike. Like
Harte Kipling fame early, he is master of the
short story and good deal of failure in the novel;
and like Harte he exces in describing phase of
life. When Harte deserted California and looked
elsewhere for the subjects of his tales his friends
were disappointed at the result; since Kipling has
left India and Tommy Atkins he has ceased to ex-
ercse his old spell over his readers Harte was as
great poet as story teller: the same is true Of

THANKSGIVING Day this year finds our country
in happy frame of mind and blessed with an abun-
dance of this worlds goods At home and abroad
we at peace. Our diplomatic relations with
European countries have never been more pleasant
and within domains harmony and good will
prevail Prosperity has been lavish in distributing
favors during the past year, and every state in the
Union has felt it's benign influence.
AS nation we can feel thankful that no foreign
invader has visited shores, that great pesen-
tial disease ravaged land, and that great con-
fagrations have destroyed any of large centers
of population Our nation can congratulate itself
on it's freedom from entanging alliances and the
happy conclusion of serious question which at one
time babe fair to approach open hostities, namely
the Alaska boundary dispute.
AS individuals we can find much that is deserv-
ing of heartfelt acknowledgment on part. Even
the pessimstic ingo discern few bright streaks
in his in which he feels he has or less to
be thankful for.
