Ormond Beach Race Plans.

NEW YORK. November "A radical
change is to be made in the program
for the coming Ormond Beach meet in
Florida, and the mile or two-mile record
sprints will be more or less subordinated
to two big races. one for the racing cars
that were built for the abandoned Van
derbtlt cup race. and the other for strictly
stock cars OF sixty horse power or less.
The exact distances for these two races
have not been decided upon. The race
for the stock cars will possibly be 200
to $50 miles.
Land loops will be constructed at both
ends Of the beach course, so that the
turns can be made In both a fast and
safe manner.

BIG BETTORS SELDOM
LOSE THEIR ALL

A mainline bookmaker whose knowl-
edge OF the affairs of the big pIungers is
beyond dispute was talking about that
recent rumor that zoe Yeager had gone
overheard again. with ring obligations
amounting to all sorts of figures UP to
10000, says the Philadelphia North
American.
There was as much of splash over
Yeager's alleged going overheard as If
the thing had really happened" said the
chalker. 1T has come to pass, so closely
are the operations of the high notchers
of the ring watched nowadays, that it's
dangerous thing for a plunger's repu-
tation or credit for him to remain away
from the track for a day or so.
There isn't anything fair about that.
On the contrary, It's decidedly unfair. Not
one out of hundred of these welching
stories has the slightest foundation D.
truth. The thing IS so rigged up nova
days that no tall sp nner can get very
deeply into the books, even if he has the
mind to.

Bookies Have Faith.

"Bookmakers know all the essential
facts about the big bettors to whom they
extend heavy lines of credit. First. they
know their men. That's the most Inn
portant thing-to know whether man Is
of the sort to settle, whether he Is of the
type that would give up eating If by SO
doing he could the more quickly settle
gambling debt And I want to say that
the great majority Of them are built just
that way.
Then, too, the bookmaker of today
knows what the skyltght bettors have
got behind them. These investigations
really don't involve any secret-service
work at all. The toppy horse gamblers
are frank enough in putting the men
from whom they get ring credit next to
1 g approx mate financial shape they're in.
They consider that no more than fair. A
banker wants to know what's behind a
fellow to whom he makes a sizabie loan.
When a bookmaker extends credit to a
big bettor he is lending him money, to all
intents and purposes. If the better wins.
he collects the cash on the nail from the
layer II he loses, why, he owes the
layer money.

Mr.. Wilh:Gc's Auto Won.

Mr.. J. L. B. Willlidc last week won
a wager with his new 4O-horsc Aero
car. The wager against him was that
the car could not be run from Balti-
more to Frederick and return in three
hours each way. Tn" distance be-
tween the cities is about As miles.
Mr.. Wilhide won.
A condition of the bet was that no
tool or instrument other than the reg
ular fixtures Of the car was to be used.
The only application to the machine
was to be an oiling allowed at one
stage only OF tic round trip. There
were five persons in the car.
The start was made at Edmondson
and Fulton avenues. The conditions
were against the car, as the road near
ly the entire way was in bad shape.
The warm weather is bringing the
frost from the ground and the beau
tiful car had to pillow through mud at
times nearly axle deep, Not once
on the entire trip was there a delay,
except at the numerous tUl,gates.
The start was at 1892 a. m. The
Frederick City Hotel was reached at
II. 80 a. m. 1t may have easily been
made in shorter time, but the chautf-
eur timed himself accurately. Had
anything about the machine gone
wrong he would have lost, but he did
not fear that. After dining at Fred
erick return for Baltimore was be-
gun at 2.25 p. m. and this city was
reached at sos p. m.
Fire ear weighed 800 pounds when
it started. The passengers weighed
$50 pounds. Before Frederick was
reached it was estimated that fully
100 pounds of mud had been accum-
lated by the car and passengers. An
other obstruction was in the shape of
the building of the Frederick pike in
Frederick county. About every 100
yards there is breaker or hump in
the road put there by order of the
road supervisors.
The supervisors are said to claim
that the road is owned by corpora.
ton, which defrays the expenses Of
repairs with toll. Bumpers, it is said,
keeps autos off the road and if they
did not the autos would keep the
driving public off. AS an evidence
that the bumpers are effective hotel
man near the line between Howard
and Frederick counties said Mr.. Will
hides car was the second one he had
known to come from Baltimore in a
long while.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(rRoM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT

(FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE
WASHINGTON, d. c., Men. 10TH.
Secretary Cortclyou, who came to
the head of the Treasury Department
with probably as little financial ex-
pericnce as any man who ever took
the place is having plenty OF high
finance on his hands these days.
Problems that would have kept Sec
rotary Shaw up late figuring have
come up for solution by Mr.. Cortcl-
you. Twice within two days he has
had to come to the relief Of the mon
ey market ard what the effect OF such
prompt assistance will be, and whcth-
or it will encourage the railroads to
bring about few moro such panics
as that which occurred on Wall street
this week remains to be seen. The
Secretary kept in close touch with
the money market in New York all
day Wednesday and TAt:rrtlay and
when he saw that the bottom of things
was falling out he loosened up to the
amount of sG0,0OO,00O. The Adj
ministration is suspicious that the
tremendous drop in stocks is due to
the Vaccinations of the railroads who
are eager to give the impression that
the Government is responsible for
such panicky and uncertain condi-,
tons in the money market because of
the drastic legislation against rail-
roads and corporations which it has
favored. But Notwithstanding this
and in order that legitimate interests
might not suffer, the unlocking of
this vast fund was made. 1t must
be gall and NORWOOD to the new
Secretary who has only been in the
harness a week or SO and who is so
eager to make many reforms he has
in mind to be compelled to see Wall
Street debating the policy of the
Treasury. When normal business
conditions again prevail Mr.. Cortel-
you will doubtless get the Depart
ment separated from stock broking
in way that will make the railroads
realize that if they bring about pam
ic they cannot get the Treasury to
step in and relieve them OF the con-
sequences.

ANY ISSURS2

Town election will be held on Mon
day April 9Th, and we naturally in
quirc if there arc any issues involved.
Our town is now virtually out OF
debt as we arc informed; enough
money will be in the treasury in
April to redeem the Town Hall bonds
outstanding and when redeemed it
will leave us with our Town Hall
fully paid for and Indebtedness.
The question then arises what is
the future Board going to do as re-
CARDS to public improvements and
the general bctterment OF the town?
The tax rate as it now stands eth
er ought to be lowered or a move
mcnt ought to be made to light thc
streets of the town. We have SO per
sistently talked OF this, that no doubt
many get tired of hearing it, but be
assured that we will never let up on
this subject until we have a deccftly
lighted town. 1t is q positive dis
grace to have such abominable street
lights and it will be all the more rep
rehensiLlc if something is not done
after the Boards are cancelled, for
what excuse can there be given for
collecting heavy taxes off OF our Cit
zcns?
We are informed that thc Town
Hall receipts and receipts from fines
arc more than ever in the past. And
Just in the latter connection we want
to compliment the Mayor in the dill
psncc he has exercised in maintain
ing peace and good order in the town
during his term. lie has seen to it
that proper fines were imposed upon
all those given to lawlcssncss and the
result has been two-fold. The treas
ury has gained and the town has as
sumcd quiet not heretofore known
for some time. 1t is refreshing to
know we have those among us who
can and will do their duty.

Pale People Made Rudy BY Rydale's
Tonic.

Pale people are pale because the blood
is deficient in quantity or poor in quality,
or both. This impoverished condition Of
the blood is almost invariably caused by
some wasting disease. The cause may
be chronic disease, such as dyspepsia,
consumption, malaria, ETC., or it may be
the result of an acute disease such as
fever, etc. 1t matters not what cause
produces this impoverished condition of
the blood, Ryda!c's Tonic will restore it
to it's normal state and bring back the
hue of health to the pale check. Rydale's
Tonic is put up in 50 cent and 81 sizes.
