READVILLE, Mass. Aug. 2i.-Ther'
was plenty OF excitement az the open
ing OF tho two weeks grand circuit
meet at tho Readvllle track, Pool sell
ing was carried on despite the arrest OF
ono auctioneor while on the track two
OF tho three svonts were run OF by q
new system which provides that each
heat shall DO q race IN itself
The track was very fast and two OF
the horses made now marks for them
selves and two OF the event records
that OF the Blue Hill and OF the Futur'
lty, were endangered, The trottlng OF
Brilliant Girl and Captain Bacon was
the feature In the Blue Hill event while
In the 2:l0 pace My Star won all three
races and lowered his mark 10 2.O3A
In the futurity Fantanas' time Of 2:2Oh
In tho second heat was within one and
one.half seconds OF the record
The pool selling began almost lmmedi'
ately as soon as the track was opened
and continued until the last race was
started. II was claimed that an opn.
ion had been received from former at
torney General Herbert Parker 10 the
effect that the statutes Of 1900 legallzed
the making Of pools. About the middle
Of the afternoon officers appeared un.
derneath the grandstand and arrested
ono OF the pool sellers. but this did not
serve as an interruption. The man was
taken TO Dedham where he was I'M
medlately bailed, and when his case
comes up IN court today II Is eX-
pected that an appeal will be taken and
the case carried to the supreme court 10
tost the law.
Brilliant Girl was a strong favorlte
IN all three races OF the Blue Hill event.
In the FIRST race, however, her sulky
wheel struck that Of Czarlna Dawson
and the mare broke. She had a lead at
the time but recovered herself and fin
lshed In second place 10 Captain Bacon.
The finish was so fast that Captain
Bacon was forced 10 make a new mark
OF 2:lOA. In the second race Of this
event Or. Day, who was driving Cap
tain Bacon, was replaced by Murphy,
but the big stallion only finished third
while In the last race Captain Bacon
was last Brilliant Girl trotted the last
race In 2O0h which was a new mark
and was within half a second OF the
record for the event
My Star was the favorlte In the 2:l0
pace and had no difficulty in winning
all three races, although in the first
Phalla made him trot In 2.O53i, new
mark for the geldlng.
The futurity event which closed the
day was run of under the old system
OF heats and Fantana made a brilliant
showing In the last one.

TELEPHONES IN THE COUNTRY
instruments Have Done Much to Re-
lieVe Tedium Of Farm Life.

The farmers wife has a new re-
source. Her lot has been improved
In many ways in the last ten years.
The separator" and the creamery
have relieved her OF the severest toll
Of the dairy. The rural free delivery
brings magazines and newspapers to
her door. Lately the telephone has
put her within distance of her neigh
bors. The nearest farm house may
be half a mile away, and the village
three miles. The lines Of poles and
the wires, perhaps merely the wire
fence, have suddenly drawn her into
an intimate relation to both, unknown
to her before. To one who has never
experienced the solitude of the farm
1t is hard to realize the JOY Of the
wife and mother at being able to con-
suit a friend about the cut Of the
baby's coat, the recipe for mince pies
or the dose Of cough strip.
The demand for the telephone in
the country is imperative. Every
body's got one." said the village
storekeeper to a city visitor. why.
there's three families that's being
helped by the town, and every one of
'em has got telephone. Old Mis-
Bearce says she'd rather go without
her victuals than have the telephone
taken Quit" What testimony to the
desire for human companionship!
The gossiping instinct, some cynic
will say. But, after all, what is that
but the wish to compare notes on
the perennlally interesting study of
human nature-a study as fascinating
to the unknown country woman as to
the famous psychologist youths

RELIC OF REMOTE AGE
Bones Of Prehistoric Animal
UneaPthed.

Ritzville. Wash, Sept. 24.-Mayor
Fred Thiel has on exhibition in his
office something of curio in the mat
ter of joint of the backbone of some
prehistoric animal, which was found
in layer of allEali formation Is feet
from the surface. The bone is seven
inches across the long way, two and
one half inches thick, with an open
ing through which the spinal cord
passed, and is nine inches in circum-
ference. There we're four small bones
near the large one, but no one that
has seen them gives any idea as to
what part of the body they belong.
Sheriff E. D. ellison listened to a
complaint some three weeks ago of a
harvest hand who had lost his roll of
blankets and gave the sheriff the
name and address of the person he
thought took them. The sheriff did
not take much stock in the story, but
wrote to the party in Republic, tell
ing how much the blankets we're be-
ing needed by the former friend here,
and suggesting that it would be nee
essary for the sheriff to get the blan
kets and holder of them if they we're
not sent down. The letter was writ
ten some days ago, and Mr.. ellison
had almost forgot en- the transaction,
when yesterday he got notice from
the express office that there was a
shipment for him. Upon going to
the depot he found the blankets had
been sent prepaid. The sheriff would
not give the names, but showed ny
the blankets.

met yesterday afternoon at the couri
house and placed c. d. Linn on the
ticket for the office of sheriff and /,

STREET CAR STRIKE OFF

Spokane, Wash, Sept. 24.-After
a long session of the street car mems
union at Central Labor hall yester-
day it was decided to acquiesce in
the position of the Washington Water
Power company to the extent of per-
Uniting four of the discharged union
men to resume work, without insist
ing that action first be taken on the
cases of their three colleagues, who
were let out at the same time and de-
MED reinstatement.
Although this was in accordance
with the wishes of the company, the
officials of the union insisted that
they had gained their point in that
Superintendent Lumsden had specifi-
cally stated, as had also President
Richards, that the company would
offer no objection to the further Or
ganiZation of the union and would
hereafter bar no man for the sole
reason that he was a member of the
union.
National Organizer Burton stated
last evening that it was his purpose
to remain in the city and continue an
effort to adjust the cases of the three
men who are still barred by the com.
pany He said that if these men
were shown to have been guilty of
dishonesty or any other osense out
side the mere fact of being union
men, he would make no further in
tercession in their behalf, but that
he felt it his duty to the organization
to continue to insist that the officials
of the company give some valid rea'
son for discharging them and not per
hitting them TO resume work along
with the others.
