Pittsburg, Oct 1.-The Rev s. Ed

mon to a large congregation last Sunday
evening For several days past the ser
mon had been advertised extensively.
Among other things DR.. Young de-
clared that st. Paul was the greatest
sporting editor that ever lived.
DR.. Young took his text from Hebrews

He said:

Christian life is a contest Opposition,

with Peterson up. started and could not be
stopped. Seven times in all the horse cir
cled the track, Peterson trying everything
within his power to stop him. Nor was It
a slow pace, but the horse ran as if he
were in some long derby event Not until
the horse was all in was he brought TO a
stop, while Peterson stepped down, prob
ably more tired than the horse.
In this event Ben Leer got away in the
lead and looked like winner. Leading
the field down the back stretch. he held
his own. with Salvayu running strong in
second place three lengths in front of the
field. This position was held until the
stretch, when Jackson gave Salvayu his
head, passing Ben Leer in the last
eighth the latter under whip and spur.
The first state record was broken Of the
meeting in the half-mile by Sam F. He
got away good and was never headed, al
though Flanders on Rajah made a game

by Charles Lamar at the state fair

Same Old Story Over Again.

There is not much difference between
the opening of one duck season ana an
other in Utah. Each year it is the same
The ducks have congested by the thous-
ands wherever there is feeding place for
ducks. Early in the morning hunters nave
gathered at these places and IN well CON
cealed blinds have opened up Calling
fire on the ducks as soon as it becomes
light enough to see along gun barrel.
This happened at about 5:24 O'Clock yester-
day morning and at the first IRE nun
dreds of ducks dropped with loud "ker-
splash" near the feet of as many hunters
The fusillade kept up, and the ducks
fell, in proportion to the AFFINITY OF tne
marksmen to hold a gun, where the thirty
inch circle of lead would locate duck in
his getaway flight Bv early noon the
ducks became wise to the conditions and
higher air is sought for safety. Then
thousands go out into the great Salt Lake
to remain until nightfall, when hunger
drives them into the feeding grounds
Experience has Taught the hunter that
this will happen and at dusk the slaughter
starts again and those who had not al
ready got their limit did so Some who
are lucky enough to dodge the game war
dens, and who are game hogs by occupa-
ton, get more than the twenty-five al
lowed by law.
Shooting Was Good.
The shooting yesterday was good WfSle,
as a rule, the season opens with fair
weather. which causes the ducks to fly
nigh mucn carrier III the udy, liic SlIOhS
wind of yesterday favored the hunters.
For this reason many of the hunters got
their limit early in the day and found
their way back to the city in time to do d
days work. While some may declare the
shooting was poor, it is safe to say that
any hunter who secured a blind where
there were ducks and who knows how to
hold a gun, came home with twenty-five
ducks.
This is especially true at the duck clubs.
Perhaps a thousand hunters in Salt Lake
county alone were favored with blinds at
enc or another Of these clubs and this
thousand hunters came mighty close to
killing twenty-five ducks each. The unat-
tached hunter was not quite so lucky, but
many of these came home with good
bag of ducks.
From now until the first of January the
hunters will be busy and every day trips
to the duck ponds will result in big kills.
There are still millions of ducks left and
a great seasons sport us ahead for the
duck hunters.

If 1T HAPPENS
IT'S HERE
BIGGER CROWD;
BETTER RACES
Stubborn Contests and Close
Finishes Mark Nearly
Every Event.

With the weather bordering on the
chilly, crowd that doubled that of the
first day sat through the afternoons pro-
gram at the fair grounds yesterday and
saw a number OF races that could not be
improved upon. The weather was cool
for fast time. but IT did not prevent the
horses from coming under the wire in
blanket finishes that kept the judges busy
placing them as they belonged Starting
promptly at o'clock, the long program
was brought to an end at $780, which in
cluded ten heats In the harness races and
two running events.
The Special race held the interest for
the afternoon, and Kangaroo, the old war
horse of Utah PAGERS, brought home the
money by his consistent work in the five
heats. Arrae was the popular favorite of
the crowd and got away with second mon
ey. a bad break in the second heat placing
her in last position at the finish, or the
result might have been different.
Each Heat a Hard Finish.
The last four heats of this race saw
some of the hardest fought finishes ever
seen on the fair grounds track. Each time
the horses were punched at the wire and
IN each heat the drivers were laying on
the whip to force the horses to their
limit. The fifth heat of the race was so
close between Kangaroo and Arrae, that
the Judges were cOmpell9d to call II
tie With that. Jennie A and Cavalier
were right on the heels of the two lead
ers, coming strong under the whip This
race was by far the best harness event of
the meeting thus far.
1t was a long fight between Admonto
and Willets in the 227 class. and it took
five heats 10 decide the winner. Admonto
broke in the first heat and finished badly,
but made up for his poor work in the next
four heats. Willets did even better work
than on the first day, and instead of tir-
ing was coming in the last heat. In this
race the judges pulled Johnny Mccoy off
his own horse AdiX, in the fourth heat,
thinking Mccoy was not driving TO win.
Johnny simply broadened the smile he al
ways wears and replied that the horse
was all in and was doing the best she
could FastOn was put up and drove the
fourth heat. but was distanced. The
Judges promptly. allowed Mccoy to drive
the horse in the fifth heat and apologiZed
for setting him down. Johnny was the
happiest man in the crowd when the
horse came in away to the bay, and the
crowd gave him a cheer when he got up
for the last heat But the horse was all
sn and. while Mccoy drove a good race, he
FINISHED several lengths to the bad.

ingeni ous ways for getting free trips
around the globe, incidentally visiting
the Philippines. In those days Army
transports were free to all Congressman
who applied. Many a high old junket-

Dor for trip to Manila by way of the
Suez Canal or from San Francisco for
a voyage direct to the Philippine Capt.

ton, faced Charleston, and showed most
the effects of the bonn bardment. The
fort had stood "a hours firing from a
circle of heavy ordnance at a distance
of from 1000 to 1900 yards. Among
these guns were II 10-inch mortars,
which bad done far the most effective
work. Capt. Foster. the engineer Off
Ger, counted 500 shot-marks on the
wall Of the fort, but they were so scat
tered as to make no impression. The
only damage done by the direct fire
from the guns was to disable three
barbet guns, and knock down the Chin
neys and brick walls projecting above
the I,arapet. The mortars' fire had,
however, been more effective. The
shells had prevented the working OF
the upper tier of guns; they had struck
the towers in which the hand grenades
were stored and, exploding them, de-
stroyed the towers and stairway; they
had also set fire to the quarters and
barracks which destroyed the main
gates, burned out the tinbers in the
embrasures. and reduced the great wall
