Not a Favorite won at Bennings.

MOI a FaVOrHfe won at Benn1nKss
WASHINGTON, April Charming
weather and card that gave promise
of excellent sport attracted the banner
crowd of the meeting thus far to the
races at Bennings yesterday. The track
was in fine condition, although trifle
lumpy. The going was altogether the
best of the meeting. 1t was a bad day
for the talent, not a single favorite
winning, and five out of the six favor
ties being unplaced. No jockey rode
two winners. The last race, at mile
and hundred yards, was the contest
of the day. For nearly mile Sir Flo
rian, with I. Burns up, and FL. L. Cole
man, ridden by Redfern ran side by
side. AS they neared the wire both
jockeys rode as If their lives depended
on the result. Burns stalled off Red
ferns final effort on the favorite and
carried Sir Florian over the line win
ner by scant half length

MONTEREY, Mexico, April A.
Thursdays deplorable occurrence,
which, according to latest reports, re-
suited in the death of eight persons,
two policemen and six civilians, and
the injury of twenty others, has not re-
suited in any further disturbance. The
cause of the riot is directly attributa-
BILE to the cry of "Death to Reyes!"
which was raised by young man said
to be a student No sooner had the
cry been raised than policeman who
stood near drew his revolver and in
stantly killed the man, thus precipitat-
ing the trouble.

WASHINGTON, April AT a, 0Onr

held at Old Point Comfort radical
measures were taken to enforce. rules
against kicking" and rowdyism. The
following important construction was
placed on rule 20, relative to the, pitch

ing that the pitcher, in taking his po-
sition, shall place no part of either foot
back of the rubber nor shall he take
more than one step in delivering the

ment of this rule will do away with

No Maple sBgsr weather.

HOOSICK FALLS, N. Y, April A.
Reports from maple sugar groves in
this vicinity show that the yield will
not exceed one-third of the average
crop. At this time last year growers
had their men breaking roads into the
woods through snowbanks from three
to fifteen feet deep. At present there
Is hardly any snow ON the roads, and
there have been no sugar SHOWS to
give encouragement to producers.
Many are not making any maple sugar
at all, claiming that on account of the
warm temperature the trees were bud
ding before it was really time to tap
for sap.

Alderman Runyon's plan for i'm
proving the cross streets and the thor
oughfares in the residential sections
of the city, as announced through the
Evening News, is being favorably
commented upon. 1t is argued that
the wagons coming in from the cross
streets to the main thoroughfares, or
those which are already paved, bring
with them much mud and dirt, which,
in dry weather, blows about as dust,
creatiag-a great nuisance.
1t will be remembered Mr.. Runyon' s
plan was to have all the residential
and cross streets paved, for a width
of ten feet down the middle, with
macadam. This is the same as High
street is now paved between Smith
and Water streets. A crown is thus
given to the street and provides
suitable place for horses to travel IN
stormy weather. 1t is well known
that it is the constant use of a street
and wagons passing in the same track
all the time which causes such deep
holes, resulting in vehicles becoming
fast in the mire. With Mr.. Runyon s
idea carried out, the traffic in any
street would be on the macadam and
il would only be when turning out for
another teapessd apesgoasA would have
to 90 inf LIS mud.
The Evening News wants to see
Perth Amboy's streets in first class
condition so that no apologies need be
made for their appearance and we
heartily endorse Mr.. Runyon's plan
toward accomplishing this much need
ed Improvement so far as residential
streets are concerned. With but one
or two exceptions they are all in q
horrible condition and to place them
in proper repair in any reasonable
length Of time some such scheme as
Mr.. Runyon has suggested must be
adopted. Other kinds of pavementi
cost a great deal of money and Cal
only be laid gradually.
Macadam, however, is not the mater
ial for business thoroughfare. Thii
fact has long ago been demonstrated
on Smith street where the dust il
summer and the oozy mud in winte
is q constant annoyance. Smith ant
State streets, together with severa
other thoroughfares where traffic i
heavy, should be paved with grant
block. This work should be begun a
soon as possible and it would seem t.
be up to some of the merchants, who's
customers are constantly complaining
to start the movement. The condi
tion of Smith and State streets las
Saturday night, when the wind wa
blowing, was disgrace.

Macadam pavements are cheap as far

Potosi Man in Trouble.

Prairie du Chen Union: The
odore Fry of Potosi presented the
scalps Of ten wolves and a certificate
for bounty from the chairman Of
the town of Wauzeka to County
Clerk Allen, Monday morn
ing but was refused an order for the
amount of which would be 800,
pending an investigation as to
where the scalps had been originally
secured. The circumstances which
led up to this action by the clerk
was on account of the fact that Fry
had asked A. f. Jones chairman OF
the town of Bridgeport for bounty
certificate but being unable to give
satisfactory proof that he had capt
ured the animals in that town was
not given the desired bounty license;
thereupon Fry went to Pat. Welsh,
chairman of the town of Prairie du
Chen who also refused the much
desired document on the same
grounds. But Fry was not easily
discouraged and lost no time in find
ing the chairman of the town Of
Wauzeka before whom he made
affidavit that he had taken the
scalps in that town and was given
the certificate. The authorities in
the meantime had been informed as
to Che matter and when Mr.. Joe
Schwartz of Wauzeka was notified
as to the circumstances asked that
the certificate be not accepted until
a thorough investigation could be
made. Should Fry be unable to
make proper proof he will be held
to the court for trying to obtain
money under false pretense.
