racing became In some respects as promi-
nent as the professional features of the
sport.
Mr.. Billings did things handsomely.
He already owned fast horses that had
won honor on the New York speedway,
but he secured Bumps, who outfooted all
rivals to a wagon. He bought Lucille
and Little Boy and established more
wagon records. He conceived the idea
that Memphis was an ideal spot for win
tering horses, and without the promise
of single dollar in return he built a
track and stables at Memphis that cost
$500 900.
He constructed elegant private stables
at his summer home on Lake Geneva,
and put up a stable at the end of the New
York speedway that cost him $4,000
All the time he was buying horses fer
their speed properties and progressing
toward his ownership of the 200 horse
The Chicago Record Herald says that
his greatest fortune came with his last
purchase-that of Lou Dillon at Cleve-
land last spring. He was advised against
buying the mare. but she took his fancy
That ended 1t. f. e. Smathers. who is

his horse dealings. also wanted the mare.
but refused to offer more than $40 ,00C
for her She was sold TO Mr. Billings.
Counting all the expense that has at
tended Mr.. Billings dealings with har-
ness horses 1t is conservative to estimate
that he has spent 100000 in gratifying
a desire TO own fast horses. There has
been no chance for him to get return
On any investment for the sole reason
that he bought for pleasure and not for
profit
Probably the 200 trotter would have
been realized II Mr. Billings had not en-
tered the field for sport but she might
not have come so quickly. 1t was will
ineness to spend money freely TO crafty
a love Of harness horses that led to the
purchase Of Lou Dillon and finally to her
record-breaking feat.

Chicago Mans Love for Harness Horses
Led 90 Lon DItIon's Record Break


To reach the ideal speed in a trotting
horse c. X. G. Billings. OF Chicago, has
spent more than 100000. The two
minute trotter became fact only after
years OF experiment and a lavish ex-
penditure which is without parallel In
the world OF harness-horse sport. II
required fortune TO bring out the mare
that could reduce the mark for mile
to the figure that had been dreamed
of for quarter OF century. II de-
manded new Robert Bonner, whose
love for horses was above the prospects
of gain.
Mr.. Billings inherited from his father.
A. M. Billings, not only love for har-
ness horses. but means 10 crafty it. He
did not set about to produce horse that
could cover a mile In exactly two min
utes. but he aimed at the acme OF speed.
In all Of his purchases Mr.. Billings has
sought to get the horse that could show
its heels to others in amateur contests.
Possibly Mr.. Billings dreamed of the
two-minute trotter, but II he did he never
told 1t to his friends. He was content 10
beat his rivals on the speedway and In
contests for amateur cups He spent his
money freely to win amateur races. but
the professional game OF racing has al
ways been conducted without his direct
support.
When he began to buy horses Mr.. BIZ
lings did not rush into the market and
offer himself as an angel to some of the
shrewd dealers. He called expert horse
men to HIS side. asked their views on all
matters. and finally commissioned them
to act for him. He spent his money, but
he employed good judges of horses to
advise him.
Although he has bought scores of
horses. Mr. Billings has probably owned
a less number Of failures than any other
man who ever dabbled, as he has. In the
light harness horse game, Ir he wanted
a horse and was rightly advised to buy
him, that horse became his property.
Money did not stand In the way OF a pur-
chase. All the time he was bidding for
the best the market had to offer. He
was not after horses with records estab-
lished close to the coveted mark, but
sought those that gave the greatest prom
Use. He steadily refused to race hts
horses for money or 70 patronize the
betting ring. He could afford to do it.

LUNATIC At WHITE House
Crazy Swede Named Elliott Wanted
to See the President.
CARRIED A LOADED PISTOL
Put Up Desperate Figh Before Being
0yerpowered BY the Officers Said
to Be an Anarchist.

A Swede named Peter Elliott callei
at thel White House Monday morn
ing shortly before noon and made a
demand TO see the President. The DO
lice officers on guard at the main en-
trance while trying to quietly datain
HIM until the police van of the house
OF detention could arrive, allowed
him to enter the yestibule OF the
White House. Instead of remaining
quiet, Elliott immediately became
violently insane and abusive. and the
officers, in trying to avoid scene,
overpowered him and took him down
bv the elevator to the basement to
await the arrival of the van. He was
searched, and on his person were
found knife, pair of scissors, a
monkey wrench, a screw driver and
several small tools used by machin-
list, but a pistol, which he had secret
ed in his trouers leg, escaped notice.
When they ATTEMPTED to put the Swede
in the van, he became desperately
violent, and Police Officer James
Cissle, who had HIM in charge had
much difficulty in getting him in the
vehicle. officer Perry. of the house
of detention, was in the cab, but Ell
lott, as soon as tie wagon started,
reached into his trousers and pulled
out his pistol. Cissle was too quick for
him, and grabbing him around the
waist before be could shoot, prevent.
ed him using the weapon.
A struggle resulted and the two
men fell out of the van onto the road
way Cissle managed to get the pis-
escaped the clutches of the officer and
started to run when Cissle drew his
own pistol fired several shots IN the
air and started for the insane man.
The police officer captured the
Swede before he had gone verv far,
and by that time assistance had ar
rived and the man was secured unlil
ahospital ambulance could be sum-
moned. Both Elliott and Cissle were
taken to the Emergency hospital,
where their wounds were dressed At.
ter receiving medical attendance the
Swede was taken to the police STA
tion and the officer sent to his home.
News of the affair at the White
House rapidly spread over Washing
ton and all sorts of rumors about an
attempt on the life of the President
were current. One of tile first to gain
currenyt was that the President had
been attacked in his office by a luna
tic, and after personal encounter
had shot the intruder. The fact of
the matter was that the President
did not know of the affair until the
chief usher. Col. Stone, made a re-
port, the incident having occurred at
the White House proper. and not the
executive Offices in the annex.

A. Triple TRAGEDY.
Indian in Northern Wisconsin Finds
Interlocsed Deer HOrns-Three
Bucks Fought to a Finish.

An Indian from the Flambeau reser-
Walton in northern Wisconsin recently
came into the fishing resort of Squaw
Lake with q curiosity in the way OF
deer horns he wished to sell. Failing
TO make a sale, he took the horns back
70 the reservation. The Montreal Wit
ness describes his treasure as three
sets of antlers incxtricably interlocked.
Two sets of antlers so locked are rare.
but not unknown. 1t is believed that
the Flambeau Chippeway has the only
set of three-locked antlers in the world.
The accident could have happened
only in one way. Two bucks of equal
strength were fighting in the forest
and became locked. Then. while they
were still struggling, third buck APP
peared and charged them both. prob
ably repeatedly. until its own horns
became fastened.
The Indian SAYS he found the horns
north of Flambeau Lake, about mile
from the water They were lying on
tn, side of a hill. and there were no
boies near them. The condition of the
hons proved that the fight occurred
no more than two years ago. The
aniers were all of full-g-own bucks,
\ showing eight and ten points each.
The third pair had been driven into
heothers just above where they were
Aied, and the branches OF them were
a1t equally locked with the branches
ofNe others
ey were not broken or Clipped in
AWAY. which seems to indicate that
wnfhe third buck had made his last
chal he was fastened so firmly that
therSas no room for any one of his
poihto play in the forks of the
othei Indeed all the horns were so
stou.ipined that they could not be
mo'ee ell. They are as rigid as II
molueN that fashion from steel.

story of an incident which happened
in my boyhood days in Ohio. MY folks
owned valuable horse. which slipped
on the ice and strained the tendons OF
one OF its hind legs so that II could
not put the heel on the ground. and
had to walk on Its toe for several
months, when an old farmer told us to
rub II with angleworms. putting them
in bottles and hanging in the sun until
all the oil was tried out of them. Then
strain II and use as a IMMINENT. We
did this and II effected the desired re-
suits. and I will say that after that
we never were without this oil. as Il Is
