Buffalo. N. Y. Aug. 3.-The Grand
Circuit races continued, today, at Ken
ilworth park, over a somewhat heavy
track, produced several distinct sur
prises. The first came with the run
ming of the PIG trot. in which Stanley
Dillon, the NJ. and NJ. winner, was a
strong favorite. Geers horse was
never in the race and the event ended
as stipulated at the third heat. Snyder
McGregor stood first in the summary
Hal Fry and Lisonjere both having
scored heats. Another surprise came
in the 2.O7 pace, in which local
speedway horse, Anidrosis, such an
outsider that in the pooling before the
third heat he only sold on even terms
with his field, won the second and third
heats after brushing It out with VIM
field Stratton in the first. Star Hall,
the favOrite, could never get up.
DIR. Strong annexed the 200 trot and
CHEEKY Lass won the 2.1S pace.
Tomorrow, Prince Alert will go after
the 2-minute mile.
After the first heat Of the 209 trot
the Judge took off Driver Gaighne and
put Geers In his place. DR.. Strong won
the next two heats in faster time. Bets
were declared off on the first heat and
Gaighne's case will come up later.
Today's big crowd enjoyed the fast
est racing that has been seen on har-

The japanese evidently realize the ad-

A brief telegram from Gen. kurOpat-

ports the evacuation of Hal Cheng ana
declares the japanese did not continue
the attack toward Lao Yang, Aug. :,
adding that they evidently were unable
to follow up their advantage OF the
previous day owing to the stubborn re-

the tropical heat. The general says the

The Russian government has not yet
made any further reply in the case OF

but it is expected that a reply Will
shortly be made. All precedents bearing
on the destruction of neutral vessels
carrying contraband when 1t is impos-

believed Great Britain is insisting on

the judicial determination and that If
this is not obtainable to her satisfaction
that it is her intention to offer to re-
fer the case to The Hague arbitration

The recent death of the English
philosopher, Herbert Spencer, recalls
the only visit he aver made to Amer
lea. a brief journey in 1882. On that &C.
casion a banquet vas given in New
York in his honor. Henry Ward
Beecher was one of the a~fter-dinner
speakers.
81 am asked" said Mr.. Beecher,
how I reconcile Spencer with theol-
ogy. l don't. A man who has a bald,
headed deacon watching everything he
does. or a gold-spectacled lawyer-not
a fat one docking at Mr. Bristow)
but a long. lean, lank one docking at
Mr.. Everts)-can't afford to talk Spen.
cerism.
1T is to be borne in mind that when
a man is driving a team Of frantic
horses that are just all he can manage,
anyhow, he is not in a state Of mind
to discuss questions with his wife by
his side, who is attempting to bring up
delicate domestic matters"
1t had been said that Mr.. Spencer
had no sense Of humor. but he Joined
heartily in the merriment which Mr..
