Venice. The distance exactly fits the
speedy Sir Wilfred and If the going is
not too heavy he should romp home.

A. Muskoday is f1t and ready now and

be good enough to repeat today, but
show money is about where he will

The third race will be of secondary
Importance and a field equally as
classy as is in the handicap will face
the barrier.
Charley should gather the grapes in
the easiest manner, as there is not a
candidate for first honors in against
him that can make him run.
Ramus should be the contender and
Hermitage should be no worse than
third. The form of this race holds
equally as well on dry or heavy going.
The first race of the day is at one
mile and an ordinary bunch of selling
platers will try conclusions. Bill Curtis
should win Hersain should last long
enough to get the place and Brigand
may be third.
Babes to the number of eight will go
half mile in the second event Of the
day. Halton is the form and should
win. Handmaiden should be second and
Blue Bottle should be third
The fifth race is a selling affair to
be decided over the Brooks course.
Miss Betty should win regardless of
track conditions, Worthwhile should be
second and Hoodwink should be third.
The final event is another selling af-
fair at six furlongs. Rodolfo should
win, the Roustabout should be second
and Elfin King should be third

certificate is Of paper makes changes in

have its name on the certificates, but
uses a combination Of letters in the

Sister OF Professor Muenter Located
By Reporters.
BELIEVES BROTHER IS ALIVE
Miss Bertha Muenter Declares She Does
Not Believe Brother Has Commit
ted Suicide-Thinks He Is
Innocent.
CHICAGO, May 5.--The Inter.Ocean

CHICAGO. May 5,--The lnter'ocean
today says
The mysterious disappearance OF
Miss Bertha Muenter sister OF Protes'
sor Erich Muenter, who is charged with
poisoning his wife, was solved last
night when reporters located the young
woman at the home of her sister Mrs
Farmer, in Rogers Park. Miss Muenter
denied that she was hiding from the
police, declared that she desired to con-
ceal nothing, and asserted that she only
sought freedom from annoyance by the
police.
81 have no information as to my
brothers whereabouts" said Miss
Muenter. 81 am seeking him through
advertisements in the papers and in
every possible way that holds hope OF
success. / am firmly of my first opln'
ion that he is innocent of this horrible
accusation against him, and believe II
he can be found he can clear himself
Of the charge.
MY visit to his former home in
Cambridge was productive of nothing to
indicate his guilt His acquaintance
there repudiate the suggestion that he
could have killed his wife. Their con-
fidence in his innocence comes from
knowledge of his home life ami the
love he had for his wife and family"
Through a friend Miss Muenter said
she had secured an attorney and
chemist in Chicago who will represent
him in any developments that may oc-
cur.
The inability of the police to locate
Miss Muenter is explained by her de-
sire to avoid notoriety. Instead Of re-
turning to her home she went to the
