FoREHAND SHOULD WIN THIRD.

Bennett's Colt Can Lose, but Will
Have to BE Ridden Like Mag N0lin.
Forehand in the third race at Delmar to-
day can lose if he is ridden as Mag Nolin
was yesterday. That Is the only way Old
Stone should be second and Brancas third.
The fourth race should be an excellent
one 1t seems to lie between Taby Tosa
and Albula. With a nice rider up, Taby
will be very hard to beat. It will be his
weight. track and distance. His race in
the mud may dull him a bit, but he is
game and true. Albula can go a route If
good and should be second sure. Beau
caire ran a good race yesterday, but the
sharp turns bothered him a good deal He
has not shown that he can beat Taby
Tosa.
DAN tMcKENNA SHOULD IMPROVE.
Dan McKenna ran such a good race
Wednesday that he ought to repeat He is
high in flesh and scarce was ready for
the race he won, yet he ran the fastest
seven furlongs of the meeting. He win
be fayorite. and that will be against him.
Allopath is real good horse who can run
He was second in 1:3S1s not long ago.
Glennevis is also a shifty kind among
platers, but has not had an out in some
manv rood eaee IN ae anI ta rah
but is bad actor at the post. Last time
out he just would not break. Bengars
mark. this way rigged, Is 1:2s11. McKenna
ran in ! 2Sk on Wednesday That ought
to beat Bengal, who was sick in the sum-
mer and who has not been out in almost
three months.
JIGGER HAS A CHANCE.
Montana Peeress is so good just now
that she should win the last event on the
card. Optional has a chance to beat her,
but she should readily dispose OF the 9TH
ers. Jigger ran some nice races in Can
ada and might be in the money. On his
races he ranks about Four Leaf Clover's
class.
BUGLEHoRN OR voLNEy.
The two first races are hard to bet on.
Buglehorn had an easy race last time. is
fast and big and might do something to-
day. Volney Is owned by Jake Marklein,
and won East in fast time and from good
colts. Doctor Scharff is the one the
youngsters have got to beat. He should
be ripe to-day and may win. Look out
for Volney and Buglehorn.
PEPPER DICK SHOULD WIN.
Pepper Dick should land the second
event. He was badly handled last time.
yet won with great ease.
He meets better lot to-day. Maghoni
ran as good race as Dave SommerS last
time she met that good horse. How would
Sornmers look In here with 50 pounds up?
That is how Maghoni is tigged. Too far

They Arrived Safely.

J. E. Leslie is in receipt of q letter
from John Bryan, the gentleman who
left Willmar some time ago with his
family for Illinois, and whose family g
destitute condition, it will be remem-
bered, was so kindly relieved by some
of our citizens. The letter is dated at
New Liberty, Ill and is in part as
follows:
Mr.. LESLIE.
Dear Strive are home all
right. Arrived Sunday at IL O'Clock.
They did not know anything about it
until we drove up to the door. I
thought the "old man" would 20
crazy. He had just got the money
and was to start after us today on the
9 O'Clock train. They had prayer
meeting here last night and you ought
to have heard them pray for the Will
mar people. There are 10 women at
our house today. I never heard such
q time in my life.
Mrs. Bryan's condition was very
bad before we got to Minneapolis, but
she is great deal better now. We
got sleeper all the way for Gil. Is.
We never can thank the people of
Willmar enough for what they did for
US. 1t ia too hot here for me- out
think it will help Mrs. Bryan.

ENGLAND'S DRINK BILL.
Annual Expenditure In 1902 Was
42O.S2 Per Capita.

Annual Expenditure In 1902 Was
42O.S2 Per Capita.
Each year the Rev. Dawson Burns
sends to the London Times a letter on
the amount Of money spent annually
In the United Kingdom for drink, with
comparison of the amount spent in
previous years. This statement is care
fully compiled, says the Boston Her
aid, and has gained the reputation of
being almost an official statement.
The first table presented in this let
ter shows the quantity and cost Of the
liquors consumed in the United King
dom. This estimates the consumption
Of British spirits at 80, 339, 523 gallons;
other spirits, S,77S,200 gallons; beer,
85,243, Az barrels; wine, 1915, 242 gal
Ions, and British wines, cider. ETC., 15,-
100000 gallons. The spirits were fg-
ured to cost $G.44 per gallon, the beer
$14.6O barrel, wine $4.3S per gallon
and domestic wines, cider. ETC., 40
cents per gallon. On this showing the
expenditure for spirits in the year 1902
was $292,279,915; for beer, $52S,G52,-
$50; for wine. $69,067, 900, and for
British wine, cider, etc., $7,5O0,OOO.
This gives the enormous total Of $780,
499,OS5. This total is, however, SILL
192,14O less than the figures for the
previous year, 1901. The reduction
comes from decrease in the amount
spent for spirits, $7,516,66O, and beer,
$3,979,9S0, while there was a slight
gain, $3O4,500, in the wine bill.
In 1902 the population of the United
Kingdom was officially estimated at
Al, 952 $40. On that basis the average
drink expenditure in 1902 was $2OS2
head, while. allowing five for the
family, this made an expenditure Of
$1O4.1O for each household.
Dividing the drinks into four classes,
the average consumption per capita
figures out: Spirits, los gallons, at a
cost Of $61S; beer, 1913 gallons, at a
cost Of $12.27; wine, 81 gallon. at a
cost Of $160; other liquors, .35 gallon,
at cost of II cents.

police supervision and also places Of

In Turkey the offender receives an
admonition and is fined for the first
ofense, and the bastinado is applied
afterward if the crime be repeated.
Among the mountaineers Of Albania
and Montenegro drunkenness is re-
garded as q political offense and for
that reason is considered more serious
than if it were moral one.
Among the mounta.neers fighting
and drinking are not considered to 20
together, and to be able to fight is the
first duty of citizen. Therefore the
drunkard is harshly dealt with. At
first they try moral suasion with the
