testant for high water mark Of merit
In its products her position for even
snOrers has been established. Dur
ing those periods when her worthy
sons are not in drill for the prize we
would suggest the following as a
good recipe to relieve the suffering
members of their families:
TO cure snoring, it is advised
that piece of soap be dropped into
the mouth of the snorer. The oil in
the soap will lubricate the pharynx
and other Latin parts of the throat,
This remedy must be applied with q
caution; otherwise the snOrer will
arise and lubricate the floor with the
person who dropped in the soap"

IF every child could be properly
instructed intellectually, morally and
religiously, a very few generations
would suffice to bring about the mil
lenium and if the foundations of a
lifelong cheerfulness could be at the
same time laid, by affording to all chill
dren full opportunities for innocent
enjoyment, what merry millennium
it would be. That being out OF the
question, let US do the best we can.
Away with the tribe of humbugs who
put children into straight jackets

marvellous game of the season, Farm

a fifteen inning game against Webb
City Wichita won by the score OF 2 to
l. Milton was the opposing twirler and
after the first inning held his former
teammates safe at all stages until the
fifteenth inning when a two bagger by
Miller followed by another by Holland
scored the winning run. Both pitchers
kept the hits well scattered and pulled
themselves out of several bad holes.
The fielding on both sides was highly
sensational, several wonderful plays be-
ing made. This is the last game VIII

weakened in the other heats and Lady
Resolute won the greater portion of
the purse. The 2:07 pace went to
Prince Hal in straight heats.
The weather was threatening and

teen horses faced the starter in the
2:13 trotting event. Kinstress went
out in the lead on the first heat and,
although pressed hard by Betty Brook,

out .Kinstress by a neck In the second
heat and led in the last until the
stretch was reached, when break

New York, Aug. 2s.-Approximately
a quarter of a million dollars will be
distributed among horsemen at the fall
meeting of the Coney Island Jockey
club, which will commence on 'Satur-
day, September /, at Sheepshead Bay.
Programme books for the session were
given horsemen here today and show
that the thirteen days of racing, If
weather conditions are at all good, Will
furnish the best sport of the entire
racing year. The rich stakes and lib
eral added money have attracted the
best thoroughbreds in the country.
Not only here, but at Sheepshead itself
and at the great training track at
Gravesend,- hundreds of horses are be-
ing prepared for the numerous con-
tests.
Half of the fortune that the club
will handle during the meet will go to
the winners of the seven big stake
races. First OF course. comes the
Futurity, the feature event for two
year-olds at six furlongs, that should
bring a record crowd to the Bay track

race will be worth upward or $42, 00O

conditions make the SO, 600 added
money look small by comparison.

Fnglish Mines PLAY BAH.

London, Aug. 2S-Londoners had an
opportunity of seeing baseball played, If
not as in America, at any rate a keen
imitation of the American game. Des-
pite the threatening weather a large
crowd went to Tottenham to see the
game. The game was between the Tot
tenham Hot Spurs and a nondescript
amateur nine. The former won, 16 to 8.
What the players lacked in knowledge
was compensated for by the enormous
enthusiasm they displayed. Their COM
ments betrayed their pardonable but
complete Ignorance of the game.

that Minoru Fulfil, a student in the
Imperial university at Toxic, has made
worlds records in the pole vault and

officially signed the papers, which say
that in the annual athletic games on
November II, 1905, Full vaulted IL

meters at a speed of 9 2-5 seconds for
100 yards.
The time was taken by q special
chronometer, an electrical connection
being broken at start and finish, auto
matically registering the time. The
race was on turfed ground. In the
pole vault the uprights were like the
American standards, but q cord in
stead of a. bamboo reed was used as
crossbar.
