the largest crowd, the biggest field,
and the best time in the history of the
classic event; first honors won in a
canter, and a fierce struggle for minor
glories; favorites hopelessly beaten be-
fore the final quarter is reached-all
that, and the floral saddle for The
Picket, is the Derby.
AS the winning colt won this, the
first victory of his racing career, the
Washington Park records for the Der

of 2:33 was set up in place of the

Same Old Story Retold.
That Sayable, the conqueror in the
Futurity and the pride Of the Drake
stables, and Claude, the winner of
three Derbies, and Bernays should
pound their way around the track with
the heels of an untried horse digging
the dirt far ahead of them, was in
strict accordance with what is expect
ed in the American Derby. When it
was over it was easily recalled that
this is the way it always happens.
Jumping into the lead before the
quarter was reached, The Picket saw
his competitors no more until they
were gathered around him at the
judges stand. Turning slightly on his
mount from time to time, Jockey Hell
gesen could see the struggle behind
him, but it carried no terrors for the
speedy colt of Middleton & Jungbluth.
AS he passed the stand the first
time around he was in the lead. AS
the flying bunch reached the first mile
he was increasing his lead. When they
entered the stretch the race was hope
less for the other eighteen, and as he
crossed under the wire it was in
canter. The real struggle was six
lengths behind him.

Review says:
Conditions in the iron and steel indus

any definite tendency, although factors
calculated TO produce weakness appear TO

pig iron have been made at concessions,
but this is attributed TO delay in trans
portation and a forced sale Ivy owners
Aet few months ago similar concessions
were impossible. and it is apparent that
the combination of unprecedented home
production and conservative buying has
taken control of the situation away from
sellers.
Three depressing factors have existed:
The labor situation. condition of crops
and the decline in prices Of stocks. al
though all have improved and may soon
cease to exercise any holefu effect,
Meanwhile, uncertainty as to the future
course of prices of iron and steel pro-

Lower grades of light weight woolens

VALENTINES MORE

minds of many lassies and swains is
what kind of valentine to send their
hearts idol.
Every window where these gaily-
colored bits of cardboard and lace are
displayed, are daily crowded by a
throng of young people making selec-
tions of the ones they think the most
appropriate for Mary or John.
Without doubt the valentines shown
this year are prettier and more elabo-
rate than ever before, the prices rang
ing from / cent to SO.
There is a noticeable falling off Of
the comic variety this year. For sew
eral seasons these hideous cartCDns
have grown into disfavor until now
there are but few shown in the local
shops, most of them being sold by small
candy stores i'm the residence portions
of the city.
Popular taste seems TO be running in
the more expensive varieties according
TO the dealers and many girls may eN-
pect to get some handsome ornaments
