NEW YORK. July THE betting on

was Of a most sensational character.

Followed Bidder Up.

The popularity of Big Tim sullivan is
so widespl cad on the turf that his horses
have seldom if ever been bid up in sell
ing races. Accordingly there was con-
sternation in the crowd and the judges
stand when an unknown man. who had
been seen talking 10 Tony ASte, pro-
Ceeded 70 bid Frank Lord up from 81 600
10 $500 Archie thinner finally retain
ing the colt with the usual increase.
AS the unknown walked away toward
the betting ring he was followed by
Larry Mulligan and several of Sulli-
vans henchmen, who said they were
merely trying TO find out for whom he
had made the bid. Mulligan denied that
intimidation was intended and declared
that nobody IN his set even spoke to
the bidder. The run up netted $50 for
Aste, whose tilly ran second. The stake
netted 81 800 for The winner.

tered in the match race for $500 which

This news came as a bitter disappolnt-
ment 20 those who are interested in the
big race as IL was hoped that all three
trotters would go TO the wire IN perfect
shape and put up great race, Went

Readvine and are reported 10 be in
splendid shape for the race.
Changes Conditions.
Just what conditions the two tTotters
viii race under is not known. as special
conditions will probably be arranged be-
fore the horses start today. The origi-
nay race was scheduled for July I. but
owing to the condition Of the track the
race was postponed until today. il was
known at that tinIe that the New York
trotter had broken down. but it was
not thought his injury was serious and
that he might be gotten into shape 10
race today.
TiveTtOn broke down last year after he
had put up two or three grand races
against Sweet Marie. and IL was thought
his racing days were over but he win
tered well. and when the present match
was made John Howell stated that
TiveTton had given every promise Of
returning to his oid-time form. and il
was this which prompted a. r. GWath-
mey of New York his owner. TO enter
him IN the sweepstake match for $500 a
corner.

PIPE COLD AIR FROM WELLS
Cheap and Effective House Cooling
System Put in Use in Mon
tana Town.

Helena, Mont.-The town Of Thomp-
son Falls, in Missoula county, has
strange system of cold storage. In the
hottest days in summer it is possible
to keep living rooms at a temperature
of 55 degrees, and butter, eggs and
meat are kept cool and fir sh without
the least trouble. The best part of the
cold storage system is that 1t costs alb
solutely nothing after the plant has
been installed.
Thompson Falls has large number
of wells that furnish cold, fresh air,
which rushes upward all summer long.
The wells are dug for water. but the
supply of cold air is fully as important.
The wells of Thompson Falls are a
little more than 90 feet in depth. The
water veins are found in a gravel
formation AMI are doubtless fed by the
mountain SHOWS at some distant place.
The gravel is porous enough to admit
of a freely moving current of air,
which during the summer time rushes
upward in currents strong enough to
snuff out match held over the wells.
The utility Of the cold air currents
was first OF 5 rived in 1884. when the
Thompson Fails Mercantile company
used the cool air to keep butter, eggs
and meat in large quantities. The air
can be piped in summer to rooms of
houses. The wells are covered over
tightly at the top, and large pipes tap
the current a few feet below the sur
face of the ground. These pipes con-
duct the air to different rooms in
nearby buildings.
For cold storage plants, a house is
built above the well and the air rushes
upward continuously, keeping the tenn
perature at an unvarying point

than its natural beauty and romantic

WALL PAPER w. p
FUTURE NOT BRIGHT.
FIRST PARLIAMENT OF RUSSIA
WILL BE A FARCE.
The Revolutionary Programme Is
Still the Paralysis of Admins
trstive Machinery from
Within.

ST. Petersburg uselessness of
expecting that the meeting of Russia's
first parliament on May 10 will in any
way abate the internal struggle is now
accepted by everyone. The fire Of rev.
olution is burning everywhere con-
tinuously, but it has not by a long way
burned out or smoked out the govern
ment. Far distant, too, is the day when
the army will make common cause
with the revolutionaries.
The present slaughter of minor gov
eminent employees in obedience to I.Ie
orders of Count Witte and Minister of
the Interior Durnovo is a salient fea-
ture. Thirteen postal telegraphers at
Tchita who shared in the general
strike in October have Just been SEN
fenced to death. The revolutionaries
treat this and similar cases merely as
a skirmish lost in war.
Against the existing system the rev.
paralysis of the administrative ma
chinery from within. Street fighting
and other disorders are not part of
their scheme. The leaders are not
likely TO call a general strike at pres
ent because the installation of the
Duma as part of the fabric of govern
ment offers some hope of wrecking the
whole system.
Dhitri Shipoff, the leader of the mod
crate conservatives, makes the follow
ing estimate of what the Duma Will
amount to when 1t meets THE ma
jority will be peasants, who will ar
rive quite unprepared for the mode of
procedure. Many will not even under
stand the words used, which will be
Of the official kind ana wholly strange
to them. The peasants will maintain
that the agrarian question is their
paramount interest and will refuse to
trust its solution to anyone outside of
their own class. But it is Just the
agrarian question which is bound to
meet from the beginning insurmount-
able difficulties which will serve the
revolutionary propaganda"
Shipoff holds strongly that the
double and triple system of elect on
makes the people regard the whole
procedure as Intentionally complicated
and obstructive. He emphatically de-
MES that the new council of state will
serve In any sense the purpose of up
per chambers and senates elsewhere.
He maintains that 1t will be almost
the same bureaucratic wall which ex-
lists now as an enemy of public life. He
is certain from long experience Che
was chairman of the Moscow provincial
zemstvo for many years. that the
council of the empire and the Duma
are foredoomed to a disagreeable
struggle, in asmuch as no decision of
the Duma can be brought direct to the
emperor's notice. The council, in its
new form, not only. diminishes the au-
thority of the Duma but concurrently
reduces the prerogative of the emperor
The majority of those who have
analysed the constitution of the cham
bers agree with Shipoff that they have
been so drafted under Count Whites
guidance as to strengthen the bureau
cracy at the expense of both the car
and the people.
