At the great motor car meet. recently
held at Brighton. a novel feature was
the appearance of women drivers in the
races.
The first woman racer who made her
appearance was Eleanor MadeIey. Miss
Madelsy was attired IN white. with a
straw hat and dark glasses. and excited
much interest among the immense
crowd. but alas. she was at least hum
dred yards behind the winner.
Never mind. Miss" yelled her enthu-
siastic male supporters. anyway you'n
never get run in for exceeding the speed
limit" I doubt whether the lady was
consoled by this humorous remark which
came from the bystanders
The second woman was Miss Hinde
She flashed along the track and showed
admirable cooIness. but again was far
behind the leader in the race, and the
crowd. which was now eager TO support
the women, groaned aloud
But in the next she was followed by
Victoria Goodwin. and the last of the
Three Graces retrieved woman's reputa-
tion as motorists. for with fifty yards
to spare she beat a 24-horse power ma
chine and dashed past the winning post
smiling gayly amid the Wild cheering of
the crowd. but. sad to say. she WIS
beaten in the final.

there were sixty-five new cases. six

The increase IN the number % new

Deprecates Sensational Reports.

Acting chief of the Isthmian Canal
Administration Office. Leon PeppermaR,
said last night with regard to the com
ing home OF Assistant Chief Engineer
Dauchy: Mr.. Dauchy has been on the
isthmus for over year He Is fully
entitled to a leave and there is no
reason to base sensational reports on
the fact that he is now returning"
Regarding the suspension Of work on
the canal at Culebra Mr.. Pepperman
said that this was due to the fact
that the canal commission is concen-
trating all its energies on the sanitary
improvement of the isthmus. and in or
der to do this the force at work at
Culebra has been withdrawn and added
TO the force engaged on sanitary work
and on the quarters Mr.. Pepperman
did not credit the rest of the report.
He said that the Congressional ap-
preparation was not nearly exhausted
and as TO rumors OF friction between
Governor Magoon and Chief Engineer
Stevens. he thought the report was
absurd.

BY RICHARD 3AHLGREN.

LONDON, Aug. 12.-There is every
reason to believe that American turf
men will be again made welcome on
British race tracks as racing owners
and trainers.
Not only has the element in the
Jockey Club which was so bitterly op-
POSED to everything American and
which had much to do with the with

There is good ground for saving that
King Edward has inthnated to several
noted American racing men that he
ould like to see them establish stables
oH this side OF the water. and that they
y ould be made welcome
That this has had its effect is evt-
denced by the fact that sixteen Amer
lean horses have been nominated for the
1907 Derby and five for the Oaks, en-
tries Tor which closed on July 25 The
total number of entries for the Derby
was $50 and for the Oaks 207. The
American owners naming horses are
james r. Keene, II. B. Duryea. and
Clarence Mackay. 1t Is understood that
these gentlemen will also name horses
foI the Eclipse Stakes.
The reports which have been current
Of late that King Edward had decided
to give up his racing stable have no
foundation in fact 1 understand that
his majesty. when asked the direct ous.s-
tion as TO whether or not there was
truth in the rumor, made an emphatic
denial.

The English racing authorities are con-
sidering means to put stop to the oper-
ations of the card sharpers and sure
thing gamblers. who make a practice
of following the races. and fleeing race
goers- More or less of this has been
common since racing has become an ir-
stitutiqn. but of recent years these
sharks have become so bold and nur1er-
Gus as to become d real nuisance, which
should be. and probably viii be, abated.

of them, " said W. L. Buekner of Free
water to an East Oregonian reporter
"The law should be enforced and
every man in the country should be
compelled to spray his trees right now
while the pests can be reached. There
are many orehardists in the Milton and
Freewater districts who keep clean or
ehards and grow practically clean fruit
but there are neighbors all around them
who violate the law, refuse to spray
and thus lower the general standard OF
the fruit produced in that district.
"It is not costly to spray for the
aphis and scale. have just sprayed
500 young trees and the cost of the ma.
terial was not more than SIS. The
work is simple and any man can do
it who will exercise care and common
sense, and the law should be enforced.

fair price, because it comes from an

orchards and pick out a few boxes of
the best grades, and our wormy, pest
ridden fruit is left on our hands, unfit
for use and disgrace to the state.
