The change was seen at once and the son of Sidney Pointer-Jane pranced home winner in the following heats.
 The 2;06 trot furnished good sport and when Charley Herr was scratched the interest became keener, leaving but four horses in the race. This race was for three heats, Caspian winning, the third heat going to Fereno.
 The third race, the 2:12 pace, was won in three straight heats by Don Carr, Day Book taking second money. Day Book seemed to tire in the third heat being the sixth horse under the wire Jim Kyle finishing well up to Don Carr. Over 5000 persons saw the racing.

LIVE UP TO THE ORDINANCE

Passengers, who are forced to ride
in cold trolley cars, IL they can get no
satisfaction from the traction com
pany, have a right to go TO the city
officials and demand action. 1t was
fortunate for PERTH Amboy that When
a trolley company sought a franchise
here, it was q local concern will, the
best interests of Perth Amboy ms one
of its main objects. 1t must be ad.
mittel that ]. g. Mccoy and the
Raritan fraction Company did all
within their power TO accommodate
local traffic, 1t was on account Of this
local pride on the part of the company
that certain clauses in the franchise
passed without question-clauses
which, Judging from its action in
other cities, the Public Service would
not have stood for. Therefore, al
though the road may change hands,
the original franchise still holds good.
Thsre is a clause, according to those
who SAY they have looked it up, that
all cars must be heated from Novem-
bel / until April /. The Raiitan Trac-
tion Company did its best to live up
TO that, but the Public Services is in
olined to bunch the Perth Amboy limo
with all the rest of its vast sytsem and
treat all alike. 1t might have done
this without complaint if it had been
the first to establish a line here, but
things are different and it is within
the power of the city officials TO com
pei the Public Service to heat its cars.
It should be done.

hopeful mood today when she appear

meanor seemed to have undergone an
entire change. Her step had a fresh
spring in it that was almost a dance,
and she accomplished the distance be-
tween the corridor leading from the
Tombs and the chair beside her father
in less than a dozen sweeping strides.
Inspired with courage by the rapid
accumulation of evidence in her favor
she slept soundly throughout the night
and ate Il hearty breakfast. After this
her spirits became even sprightly, and
when a letter TO which her lawyers
attach much Importance was shown
her she squeezed the arm of her aged
father, who was sitting beside her, in
her enthusiasm over it's contents. i
The letter was written by IL. Black"
and the writer said lie had seen Gaze

terson's interest in the talesmen who
were put on the stand and examined
as to their qualifications to serve on
her jury was vividly alert.

Last Tuesday Fred Turner, a negro living near Fitzhugh, way laid and shot a negro named Con- way Frier through the right hip, inflicting a painful wound, says the Augusta Free Press.
 About an hour before Frier was shot Turner mistook Oscar Hampton, colored, who was or his way to Fitzhugh after a drummer, to be Frier and fired a couple of shots as he passed where he was hiding, but fortu- nately neither shot took effect. Constable Leisinger captured Turner Wednesday morning and brought him to Augusta, where he was placed under bond for his appearance at circuit court. From what we can learn the trouble came up over a woman.

MINERAL EXHIBIT
 ATTRACTS ATTENTION
Arkansas Zinc Exhibit Unsar- passed Railroads Needed The Conclusion of Bos-
 ton Capitalists.

St. Louis, June A. - The Ar kansas mineral exhibit is attact- Ing a great deal of interest at the worlds fair. Arkansas zinc exhibit is not surpassed by any and a great deal of interest cen ters around it.
 A party of Boston capitalists visited the exhibit a few days ago and the following night went on down into the Arkansas zinc district on speciul car. One of the party remarked: We have come to the conclusion that all the zinc district of Arkansas needs is railroad facilities and capital. We have already in- vested some in the district, and shall invest more.'
 The Arkansas coal exhibit has also attracted considerable at- tention, as has also the bauxlte or aluminium.
