WEATHER TOO BAD FOR NEW RECORDS Major DeImar and Dan Patch
 Will Try Today SOME GOOD SPORT ANYWAY Directum Miller, the Favorite, Won the 2:21 Pace After Breaking Badly
 and Finishing Third In
 the First Heat.
SOME GOOD SPORT ANYWAY

Memphis, October 26.-Today's pro- gramme at the driving park was devoid of special feature. Major Delmar, the two-mnute gelding, was carded for an attempt to lower his own record, but owing to the prevalence of strong wind, the event was postponed until tomorrow. It was also announced that Dan Patch would go against 57 1-2, the half mile record for pacers tomorrow.
 Today's stake feature was the Magnolia for 2:15 trotters.
 Mazetto and Jay McGregor were equal favorites for the first heat. The former easily won and in the second heat sold a decided favorite over the field. Ma zetto had no trouble in annexing this heat and race, Jay McGregor securing second money
 Direotum Miller the favorite, won the 2:21 pace after breaking badly and finish ing third in the first heat.
 The 2:25 trot went to Cathode. who beat the odds-on-favorite, Kirkwood, Jr, in two straight heats. The result might have been different had not an accident in the second heat. Immediately after
 
 Great Spirit owned by Senator Bailey of Texas and driven by Marvin, collided with Geers' sulky, Marvin being thrown heavily to the ground, while Great Spirit ran through the field and completed the circuit of the track three times.

CURES CHRONIC CATARRH.
Hyomei Cures Worst Forms of This Di
sease in any Part of the System.

IT is the height of folly to continue
doctoring a catarrhal disease by stom-
ach drugging, when the whole trouble
lies in the respiratory organs, where
nothing can reach the germs but a To-
cal direct treatment by inhalation.
Hyomei is Natures remedy for the
cure of catarrh. Just breathe it a
few times daily, and it will effect a
cure.
The medicated dry air that goes
through the air passages, and into the
lungs when Hyomei is breathed
through the inhaler that accompanies
every outfit, is rich in ozone, purely
vegetable and filled with marvellous
healing and strengthening qualities.
If you are tired of stomach drug
ging, and seem to grow weaker all
the time, throw physic to the dogs"
and get well with the health-giving
Hyomei treatment that is Natures
own method.
Rev. J.. B. Cook, of Holliston, Mass,
says: MY wife has suffered greatly
from catarrh for fifteen years. Nearly
four weeks ago she commenced to use
Hyomei, and the beneficial effect was
immediate. 1t is very seldom that she
needs to clear her head and throat,
and she is able to rest quietly at
night. For years past she had been
troubled with pain in her limbs, which
we supposed was rheumatism, but
since she has used Hyomei that af-
Fiction has disappeared"
Feldmeyer Brothers will return
your money If Hyomei does not cure
you of catarrh. This shows their
faith in the remedy.

Railway Building In Uganda.

The romance of railways Is thing
which the poets are very properly try
inc to make people perceive. The ro-
nance OF lions and rhinoceroses, on
the other hand, is admitted to exist,
even by their worst enemies. When
the two kinds of romance clash, stir
ring times ensue. Mr.. III. b. Moles-
worth makes this plain In an article
on THE Uganda Railway" In the
pages Of public Works" The pro
gress of the work, he tells us, was
much interfered with by the depreda-
lions of man eating lions. At Tsavo
twenty-eight men were taken by lions
in a very short time. There was a
panic among the men; traps were
made; the coolies slept in trees. in the
water tanks at the stations, In COW

Physicians are calling attention TO the
fact that influenza or grip has come to

a marked increase in diseases affecting
the organs of respiration. which increase
is attributed to the prevalence of inhu-
