ALL TR0TTING
RECORDS BROKEN.
Made a Mile in Z Minutes Lower.
ed Worlds Record Of Crescus
Z IA Seconds.

Readvill, Mass, Aug. 24.-Lou
Dillon, driven by Millare Sanders,
to-day trotted mile In 2 minutes
lowering by 24 seconds the Worlds
trotting record, held since 1901 by
Crescus, 2:O24. The track was fast,
the weather fine and the crowd
large. Lou Dillon became the
fastest mare trotter on July IL, 1908,
when she trotted mile in 2:035.
She lowered this time 10 2:O2a re.
Gently, reducing The Abbot's record
three quarters Of second;
For pacemakers there were two
running horses hitcled to road carts
Peggie from Paris, drsven by Doc
Tanner, and Carry Nation, driven
by Scott Mccoy. The first score was
fluit'ess, Lou Dillon making a
break just before reaching the wire.
On the SECOND attempt the word
was given. Tanner was directly in
front OF the chcs nut trotter while
Mccoy Law at her wheel. In this
way the trio went to the quarter
pole in O:304. With never skip
Lou Dillon went so smooth gated
down the backstretch as 10 lead
those not timing the mile to believe
that her speed was not alarming fast.
The half was clicked off in 1:00a.
Around the turn to the three-quarter
pole the clip quickened, the third
quarter being in 0;304, making that
mark of her journey in 1:31. Faster
and faster came Tanner with the
runner, and right with him trottcd
the handsome California bred mare.
Sanders was sitting perfectly still,
but Mccoy was crying aloud to his
runner to cheer on Lou Dillon.
To the amazement OF all the
quarter was driven in 0.29, thus
making the mile in 2 minutes.
When Sanders logged the mare
back to the wire those who had wit
messed the performance leaped to
their feet and sent forth cheer after
cheer. Lou Dillon apparently was
as freshas though she had only been
out for a jogging exercise.
Sanders said he fully believed that
before the season closel he would
drive the mare in 159: or better.

Dowie's invasion of New York has
begun. 1t will be interesting to watch
it's progress. Our country is peculiarly
sensitive to emotionalism in religion,
The ferment runs up to fever heat,
spreads over a wide area and then dies
down, general leaving a residuum
which forms the nucleus of a new reli-
gious body. The study of this emo
tionalism among a very acute CONNER
cial people, would be a very curious
one and would probably take at least
one life time to collect facts and an
other to collate them. The ephemeral
effect of Dowieism upon New York,
however, will be easily seen.

any means be correct. The main
point in dispute is whether the boun-
dairy follows the inlets in their wind

the Ocean. The former is the Ameri-

contention gives ten marine leagues in

New York. May 20.-According to

government, that is said or done in

rapidly as possible by this army Of
spies. They are especially anxious, u
is said, to get the letters written by
prosecuted Russians to relatives and
friends in this country. In order that
they may send back TO the central gov
ernment such utterances as may be
used as justification for further perse
cution. Knowledge of this fact is what
makes the Hebrew on this side so care
full not to give verbatum extracts from
any foreign letters in relation to the

Miss Barton Announces Plans
For Extending Work Of

Industrial Glasses to Be Taught the
First Principles of Caring for Vic
tins of Accident and Furnished
With Emergency Cases Containing
Materials and Surgical Dressings.

New York. May 20.-For the first
time since the strife began in the Red
Cross. Miss Clara Barton, in formal
statement, has made reference to the
controversy and has announced a plan
to widen the scope of the society's work.
She says:
II have administered with a free but
careful hand the beneficiaries of what
ever nature that have been entrusted to
me, and as freely have given of all
that / possessed, strength, health AMI
private means"
The new plan is the establishment of
first aid department. There will be
two branches of this work. An emer-
gency case, containing material and
surgical dressings has been devised,
with emergency charts arranged for
instant reference. giving simple direc-
tons for dealing with every case of ac-
cident, pending arrival of doctor. An
organization has been created for In
Producing these cases to corporations
and other light employers, schools
and private houses.
The other branch provides for the
formation of first aid emergency
classes in every city and an ambulance
corps among the employees of mills.
factories, railroads and other corpora
tions, police and public employees.
These will be instructed and drilled in
first aid methods.
