The oper- ators in both of the offices worked as usual today, but all messakes were ta- ken as the senders risk and subject to indefinite delay, and the business or both the companies here Is practically at a standstill.
 The Postal was working with but two offices today, Atlanta and Mont gomery, and the Western Union was only working two offices also. The most of the teelgrapn business out of Selma is sent by the Postal to Birm- jngham, and the Western Union to Atlanta. On account Of the strike be- ing on in Birmingham, the Postal op- orators are not working in that office ana are sending the business as best they can through what offices that they can reach and in which the strike haA

Mcdonald String of Race Horses Which Wintered in the Central City, Met With Success On the
 Track.
Advertiser Bureau,

 Selma, Aug. II.
 The outcome of the harness races in the Grand Circuit IS being watchel with interest each day by Selmians who take an interest in such events, The interest evinced in these races by citizens of Selma is centered in the string which is campaigning through out the circuit and being driven by Lon Mcdonald. MT. Mcdonald winter ed his string here during the past year. and during that time made large number of frienda among the horse. lovers here. who are interested ai the success with which he is meeting.
 When Mcdonald brought nis string of trotters and pacers here last fall to spend the winter. they were not in good shape. according to horsemen. The success with which he mas met so far this summer shows that the months which these horses spent in Selma did them much good. This success will no doubt continue during the remaining meetings in the Grand Circuit, md as Mcdonald ranks as one of the best drivers. his success will prove duits a drawing card for this city i.l the fu- ture.
 With six of the members of his string since July 4, Mcdonald has won first money three times. second one tiine and third money six times. He has not only won money but he made new reCOFQ Wltu Dell ottA ~ 3-year-old. at Cleveland and Bunalo. The record was made at Cleveland when Bell Bird' won an event in three straight heats, making record Of 2;1l 1-4. This is the worlds record for > year olds at this time of the year. and horsemen predict that the little I,a' . has 9 bright future before her in the racing world.
 Of the Mcdonald string. "Hidalgo" has been the principal winner so Tar this summer. He is a green one and has made the season record as such. It was in a 2:13 pace for a purse Of $3.O0o that ''IIidalgo" made his record, and which is now 2:04 If. It is believed that Bell Bird" the other record breaker of the stable. will remain the champion 3-year-old of the year. and it is predicted that 1t will take good one to beat her in the Kentucky Futur- ity, where Kentucky Todd has been the winner.
 While Sadie Foggs," another of the Mcdonald string, did not win the Mer- chants and Manufacturers race at De- troit, she has proven good in a number of events this season So far. The rest of the campaigners of the Mcdonald string are also doing well, and 1t IS believed that he will bring the string to Selma again during the coming wiD- ter for their spring training
 Besides the Mcdonald string, wnicn will very likely again winter at the Selma Driving Park, the owners or ire track have received requests from sey- eral horsemen asking for space at tne track during the coming winter months. With these requests from horsemen, 1t is now believed that not less than two hundred race horses VIII spend the coming winter months at the track in this city.
