Special to the News-Democrat.
Cleveland, Aug. 29.-There is a mys-
terry connected with the disappearance
of Ethel X, a valuable chestnut pac-
ing mare, from the Valley track, and
the police are working hard to locate
the animal.
Ethel X. has a record of 2:19 IA and
was brought from Rockport last week
by w. c. Hartman of Canton to be
entered in the 2:19 IA pace at the
Valley track last Tuesday. The speeder
had been trained at Canton.
Last Monday night about IL o'clock
It was that the animal was missing
from its stall. The police were noti-
fed but the only clew to the missing
horse was given by small boy who
stated that he had seen a man leading
an animal which answered the de-
scription of the PAGER, up Starkweather
Avenue.
1.-The owner of the PAGER came to
Cleveland, but up to the present time
has not been able to locate his ami
NAL. Ethel X. is a chestnut sorrel,
weighing about 1000 pounds. One front
and two hind feet are white. The ami
NAL is valued at $1,000.

M'K|NLEY FUND
WILL Be GAMER
Florists Association Prepare
Plans Whereby About $75,-
900 Will bs Secured for
Memorial.
NJ . oriaI

Barring a hitch in the plans of the
Society of American Florists, about
$4,000 will be added to the fund of
the National Mckinley Memorial asso-
citation by this organization. Assist
ant Secretary Frederic S. Hartzell has
returned rom Milwaukee where he at
tended the annual convention of the
florists society at that place from Au-
gust IS to 20.
Secretary Hartzell was accompanied
by a committee rom the Carnation So
ciety of America, an auxiliary body of
the larger association. This commit
tee was appointed at the annual con-
vention Of the Carnation society in
Brooklyn last February and author
ized to solicit funds from the members
of that body. The committee is head
ed by H. M. Altick, OF Dayton, the
other members being ]. ID. Thompson,
Joliet, Ill. and William P. Craig,
Philadelphia.
1t was to obtain authority to So
licit subscriptions from the 10000
members Of the society Of American
Florists that the committee, with Sec
retary Hartzell, attended the conven-
vention. On Saturday the matter was
brought up before the 1000 delegates
in convention and the project met
with unanimous approval. The mem.
bers of the committee are also mem
bers of the parent florist organization
At the convention the society Offer
ed to donate $1,000 to the fund as q
body but this offer was declined as
1t was thought that It might deter
some members from making individ.
ual contributions.
