in town, Monday, and paid his respects

FOR PURSE OF $4,000.
Goldsmith a Fayorite in the Big
Suburban Race.

New York, June 1S.-A heavy rain
during the night and the drizzle this
morning did not improve the track at
Sheepshead Bay. which was opened to-
day for the June meeting of the Coney
Island Jockey club. the great event of
which is the Suburban handicap sched-
uled for this afternoon.
The work which had been done on the
track was almost completely destroyed
by the downpOur, turning the slow
course to sloppy and sticky going This
served to make the Suburban an even
more puzzling proposition. Many went
to the track with an opinion or guess
as to who the probable winner might
be, but none felt sure that he had safe
ly picked the winner. There were 21
horses named to start and of these it
was felt that perhaps a dozen had no
chance to win. As in the Brooklyn
handicap, the W. c. Whitney entry was
the favorite in this case Goldsmith
with Redfern up. He was quoted dur
ing the day at 4 to / His most danger
Gus rivals, it was believed, would be
Igniter, Heno, Irish Lad and Major
Dangerfield, but there were others that
carried money on past performances.
Goldsmith, although he has not been
under silk in nine straight months, was
strongly supported He likes the turns
at Sheepshead Bay and besides Trainer

mile and a quarter at Brighton Beach

I to perfect form. Burns will ride Irish
Lad but his impost of 115 pounds was
considered too heavy a handicap. Heno,
defeated by Irish Lad in the Brooklyn
handicap, is picking up four pounds,
making a difference Of eight pounds over
the weight for the Brooklyn, but in that
race Irish Lad gave HenO decisive
beating. On the other hand Heno has
improved since the Brooklyn race.
Rice, who piloted Hermos in a number
of victories, was engaged to ride that
horse, which improved his chances in
the minds of race goers. Others that
were mentioned as possible winners were
City Bank, Colonel Bill Water Boy,
Herbert, Articulate and Yardarm. The
value of the race is $4,000.

I do not understand the reason for

tending to prove that the place was
common nuisance and at the same time
that such proof is not competent az

time of filing of this complaint" This linl-
tied the time in which the witnesses could
testify to a couple Of months or less in

hole through which the joiniists are es-
Gaping on the nuisance count, as the wit
nesseS might remember something during
two years, but they find it almost impos-
sible to remember during so short a time
as two months
This additional blunder by the late Coun-
ty Attorney Nichols was sufficient to get
Ross out of the tolls. None of the wit
nesses could remember buving any
liquor in the prescribed time. They were
quite sure they bought liquor some time
of Ross. but it was very doubtful if the
purchases were made during the limited

MUST BE STOPPED.
Police Will Break Cyclists from Us
ing Sidewalks.

An edict has gone forth which is IN
tended to strike terror to the persons
guilty of the crime of riding on the side
walks in violation of the city ordinances
that are intended to keep the sidewalks
for the sole use of pedestrians.
Not since the regime of Special 81
cycle Policeman Bevelle has there been
a time when a special effort was made
to gather in the offenders for violating
the bicycle ordinance. However a
great deal of complaint has recently
been made to the police department and
just before the flood, Harry Dusenberry
was appointed a special bicycle police
man with instructions to arrest every
one whom ne found riding on the walks
While the attention Of the police de-
partrl1f44 was so much occupied with
the work in connection with the flood,
Dusenberry was not very active in his
field, but since the flood excitement is
over. people may look for a great many
arrests of bicyclists.
Special Policeman Dusenberry works
on a commission plan He receives no
stipulated salary, but IS paid half the
amount OF the fines collected from those
whom he arrests. 1t is therefore evident
that Mr.. Dusenberry will spare no pains
to get everyone it is possible to catch
riding on the walks
The fines range from 81 to SIS. The
first offense usually only calls for 81
fine. But persons caught the second or
third time viii probably fare pretty
badly when they face the police judge
This morning Edward Miller was
gathered in on this charge and he aD-
peared in police court this afternoon.
The police department announce tnat
it is the determination to break up the
habit of riding on the walks and that
every effort possible viii be made in
that direction

VIN-SENG
For Weak Heart

Do you have sinking spells?
Is your circulary system out of order?
Are you weak or run down?
DO you have weak or diseased
hearth
These symptoms indicate that you
need a good Tonic-A medicine that will
strengthen and invigorate the heart and
circulatory system. VIN-SE does
this better than any other medicine
Here is proof: Mrs r. n. Hebbard of
1928 Van Buren street, North Topeka.
who was driven from her home by the
flood and took refuge with her sister.
Mrs. D. b. Owens. at 1906 Lane street,
says My sister is subject to Heart
Trouble and often has severe sinking
spells The other evening she had a
sinking spell: 1 had just one dose Of
your Vin-Seng Tonic left in bottle I
brought from North Topeka with me. I
gave it to her and in less than five min
utes she had revived and was in her
normal condition. Vin-Seng is the best
remedy for the heart that 1 know Of
take it for Catarrh and find that it does
more to relieve it than anything I have
ever used"
There can be no doubt as to the eff
eaey of Vin-Seng. Thousands of peo-
pie have used it and pronounce it the
best of all medicines for Weak Heart,
Weak Stomach, Dyspepsia, Catarrh or
General Debility.

The water did not leave a very deep
deposit Of mud on the floor OF the club
house. The greatest damage was done
by the water washing driftwood over
the premises and in washing out the
grass and shrubbery, etc, about the
grounds.
1t has been found that the fish have
not been lost from the lake 1t was
feared that the loss would be great from
this source. The lake was stocked about
two years ago with two carloads of
fish from an eastern government fish
hatchery, aud fishing promised to be un-
usually good this year. 1t is found how
ever that great many channel cat
have been washed into the lake as re-
suit of the high water. It will cost the
club $500 to repair the damages.

Plans.

At q meeting of the City Charities
association called for 4 p m. today the
proposition from the Commercial club
to assume the business of distributing

This proposition includes the agreement
to place 81 GOO in money and all the
supplies now in the possession of the
temporary relief committee at the dis
pOsal of the Associated Charities, ana
to extend further assistance in the fu-
ture if necessary. The acceptance OF
the proposition viii be a big undertake
ing. but it is believed that this dispo-
sition of the relief work will be
arranged
The establishment opened by the or
ganizatiOn at 1115 Kansas avenue last
winter has been closed since the COM
ing of warm weather, and the charities
association has been practically out of
business for several months. J. E.
Squire resigned his position. and the
services of new city secretary will
have TO be secured if the work is un-
dertaken. Prof. H. w. Jones. instructor
in music in the city schools, has done
much valuable work at the Auditorium
and can probably be secured to take
charge of the charities association
building if desired. Secretary Q. s.
Morrow of the association recommends
that the distribution of groceries. which
viii be done on large scale for a short
time to come, be kept separate from
the other work. The manag cement of
the grocery department has been ably
conducted by Grant Howell. Mr.. Nor
