CHICAGO, July 6.-Alan-a-Dale, who re-
duced the worlds mile record Circular
track to 1877 3-5 last week at Washington
Park, to-day won at a mile and seventy
yards in 1:43 1-5, knocking two-fifths of
a second off the track record. The per-
formance was remarkable in view of the
track conditions. The course, which was
very sloppy on Saturday, dried out excep-
tionally fast but was not thought to be up
to record breaking qualifications. Alan-a-
Dale won just as he pleased from Jack De-
mund. His price was 1 to 8. Gregor X.

An interesting demonstration OF the
Intelligence of the ant was made by a
student In the biological department OF
the University of Pennsylvania. The
Young mGn construct ii roadway two
ct In length of metal and divided 1t
into two parallel paths. separated by a
high partition. One Of the paths he
painted red and the other blue, and al
their end, in plain view, he put NOR
gel of rich cake. says the Philadelphia
Record. Then he set an ant at the be
ginning of the roadway. The ant at
once made for the cake over the red
path, wherenpon the student turned on
a lamp under his mechanism and heat
ed the path to an uncomfortable de
gree. The ant kept on and finally Sc
cured the cake, but on its return 1t
must have told itself that it had had a
mighty uncomfortable journey Several
hours later the student brought it out
again. another morsel of cake being set
at the end of the roadway. The ant
thought a moment and then started for
the cake over the blue path. 1t re-
membered that the red one had been
hot To prove still more conclusiyely
that II remembered, the student next
blocked up the blue path. whereupon
the ant did without the cake rather
than venture after 1t by the red one.

loafer.
DON'T was the laeonic response,
md then the Jeweler explained. THE
man Is a locomotive fireman, and his
watch was being compared You see,
1t is absolutely necessary that railroad
watches keep good time, and the mat
ter of making them keep good time has
been systematized.
The firemen, engineers, conductors,
rear brakemen and train masters on all
of the roads in this country have or
ders to have their watches compared
twice month and inspected every six
months On some roads nearly all Of
The employees are supposed to go
through this same routine.
when Il watch is bought by any of
these men, 1t must be passed upon by
the jeweler who has been appointed in
Jpector for the road that the purchaser
serves. 1t must be good watch, cost
ing about $50 for the works alone, for
the rattle and jolt of a train would Sc
riously affect a cheap watch, but it
may be of any make, provided it comes
up to the standard. Stop watches,
watches that tell the day of the week
and such complicated novelties are
barred. \ key winder is not aecepta-
BILE. nor is watch that has been
changed from hunting case to an
open face. An open faced watch is
preferred. though good hunting case
watch is not turned down ON the ma
jority of roads.
After the inspector mas passed ia
vorably upon the watch he makes out
a slip to that effect and returns the
watch TO the railroader, along with the
indorsing slip and small card. On
this card are number of ruled spaces.
Twice month the railroader brings
his watch and card TO the inspector
who notes on the card whether the
watch was fast or slow and how much,
whether 1t has stopped or rum down
and whether or not he regulated 1t. In
this manner the inspector can tell just
what the watch Is doing and what 1t
needs.
AT the end of each six months the
watch and the card are taken to the
inspector. who makes a more careful
examination of the watch, issues a new
card to the railroader and sends in the
old card to the headquarters of the road
for which the man works. A duplicate
of these cards is kept in a book by the
inspector
THE railroad watches that are most
closely watched by the inspectors are
those that are carried by engineers and
fremen on those locomotives that are
fitted with electric headlights on ac-
count of the danger of their becoming
-magnetized. This danger is realized by
engineers. and many of them leave
their watches in the cab while working
