VANDERBILT GETS
ANOTHER FRENCH STAKE.

PARIS, July 13.-W. X. Vanderbilt
added another classic stake to his long
list of victories when his bay colt, Sea-
sick H., yesterday won the prize of the
president of the republic, valued at
&C, 1000. at Maisons Lafitte.
The race was at n mile four and a
half ~furlongs, and Seasick H., following
tho tactics of Mr.. Vanderbilt's North
east, which won the Grand Prix de
Paris on June "a, took the lead at the
fall of the flag.
He was soon overtaken by Camille
Blane's Grill Room, and the horses al
with but little distance separating them
into the homestretch. The Vanderbilt
colt had much the better staying quail
ties, and forged ahead in the run TO the
wire, winning easily.
After the race President Fallieres
warmly congratulated Mr.. Vanderbilt.
There was a large attendance of repre-
sentative French and Americans, de-
spite the rainy weather.

QUEEN GENTRY CAPTURES
WILLIAM RIKER TROPHY

lite Prince Altar win the event that was
the best horse race of the afternoon.
Prince Ala had lost the opening heat
to Florence G., Hunt brothers bay
mare. Then he turned round in the
next heat and raced the Hunt mare off
her feet so that she had to withdraw
from the race.
In point of interest the opening event
of the afternoon. the 2:S0 pace to carts
for the Riker cup, was the feature, but
it did not furnish the best race by any
means. That steady little mare Queen
Gentry with never a skip or a break
won the race in three straight heats.
The great little mare never lifted her
head. but kept it pivoted down and
paced Strong Heart and Ell B. off their
feet when they attempted to outpace
her.
Strong Heart showed flashes of speed
in spots. as did Ell b. In the opening
heat Ell B. was several lengths ahead
and going finely with Queen Gentry in
the rear when she hit the turn toward
the home stretch. Then she blew up
and Queen Gentry took the lead and
won eased up, the p~ace-maker, Ell B.,
getting nome fourth.
Atwater drove Ell B. prettily in the
second heat, but was a length and a
half behind at the wire. Strong
Heart challenged Queen Gentry and
Ell B. in his heat and furnished a
pretty brush along the back stretch,
but broke badly under the ~gruelling
of the other two horses. Queen Gentry
duplicated her performance of the Sec
ond heat in the final and breezed home

a winner, capturing the cup amid
great applause.
Fairs Gyp Walnut pulled over a
nice one on Meyers Princine In the
free-for-all trot and pace. In the
opening heat Princine appeared to be
walking away from the rest of the
field, which included Gyp Walnut.
Marique, Riverside, Henry N. and
Chief On the back stretch, second
time around, Gyp Walnut suddenly
developed a burst of speed and passed
the Meyer t~rotter, breeZing home an
easy winner.
The second heat looked like an at
tempt to split the race in which the
Meyer brothers, Joseph driving Prin-
cine, and Jacob upon Marique, tried
to pull off a clever trick. 1t appeared
to ONE of the wise ones in the crowd
as though 1t were the intention of
the Meyer brothers to relay the race
in half-mile heats. Marique was to
go the first half mile and push the
gelding hard, and then Princine was
to take up the race at the half mile,
and having reserve speed. beat II
the Fsrr entry. Marique did his
share, but In trying to hold Princine
back at the opening of the heat the
horse broke badly, leaving him hope
lessly out OF it to take up the burden
at the last half of the race. Henry N.
blew in ahead of both Marique and
Princine, but Gyp Walnut won
eased up.
Lady Elkwood's splendid showing in
the 1928 pace, which was captured by
Far Fan, was favorably commented
on. The little mare, which did not
seem to be possessed of any too much
strength In previous races at the
track, cut out a nice pace in the open
ing heat, and finished just a length
behind Fan Fan, the winner. The
starting did not favor Lady Elkwood
any too much, and considering the
fact that she had gotten off In the
rear she finished strong. Mulligan's Jim
Dick, however, cut loose in the next
heat, and with a good start beat out
Lady Elkwood for second honors.
Captain Jack won the 2:30 trot in
two straight heats. Lavinia Brook
and The Farmer had to have an extra
heat TO decide second honors, and the
red ribbon went to Lavina Brook.
The comedy of the afternoon was
furnished by Hamlet. a VIGOROUSLY
bad actor. which was driven by e.
Bodenweiser. The horse could not
seem TO score anywhere near the rest
of the field. In the second heat the
horse was twenty lengths behind
when the word was given. but he
trotted an excellent race and pulled
up third, never once breaking. Flor
ence G.. went lame after the second
heat and had to be drawn. This left
the final heat easy for Prince Altar.

Looker-On In Iona

Union, March 31.-A regular feature
here and in many other towns in Iowa
is a market day sale. 1t is an out
growth of the regular auction business
and the farm sale, combination OF
the two. 1t so happened that some

town on the day advertised for a reg

thirty head of horses were being led
to town by prospective sellers. Ihls
was seen in a drive extending only
five miles over one road. The next day
occurred another market day sale at
Conrad, not over twenty miles from
Union, and again in came the horses
and other farm products for which the
owners had no use. One whole block
had lined up against the sidewalk ev-

FAKES IN THE CAMPAIGN,

Again the people of Iowa are con-
which the interests have frequently re-
sorted to in the hope'of destroying the
champions of the square deal. A COM
mittee plentifully supplied with money
and able to employ the kind Of talent
which always ,hovers around campaign
dispensers has set up headquarters os-
tensibly at Dubuque, but in fact in Des
Moines, and the Campaign" is started.
The earliest discharge Of the cam
paign gun discloses a baseless claim
that Governor Cummins promised AL
lison he would never be candidate for
the senate. The mud failed to stick.
The falsity of the accusation has been
fully established.
This fake was not enough. One of
the latest was charge, widely her
aided as a great political crime, that
Governor Cummins had placed his
campaign in charge of manager
whose residence is Minneapolis. OF
course it was not true. Mr.. Gilbert
son has been a resident Of Des Moines
every day since the progressives placed
him in charge of the state treasury
eight years ago and this was known to
a certainty by the Allison fakirs.
Next thew said that Secretary Taft
got a letter from Governor Cummins
in which were told some mighty plain
truths about LATE Young and his
coterie of politicians. 1t was abso-
lutely false in every particular. When
the Taft management learned that men
in the interest of Allison, had boldly
faxed an alleged letter in such a way
that 1t made Taft a party to the crime,
they heard from the Taft management.
Already they have backed out and now
admit that Cummins never wrote it,
which was the main contention.
Next week they will have another
fake. The chances are ten to one that
they will involve President Roosevelt
and drag his name into the game prob
ably with a fake telegram or letter
or something of the sort Then they
may drag in King Edward or the sui
tan Of Sulu to help them, as both are
helpless against such methods.

yet, one of these days he'll know as
much as his father" Both of them
know enough, the point is some young
man are using their thinker these
days.
Candidate Pickett for this congress-
onal district, is dropping in these days.
He wisely refuses to be a Cummins or
an anti Cummins man. He tells the
voters, express your preference for U.
s. senator, tits none OF my funeral,

the possibilities of politics, in one town
where the writer happened to be, one

editors of a country weekly, was SO

stated Pickett had promised Mr.. Blank
the appointment. 1t came to Mr.. Pick
ett's knowledge, and he wondered II
this weekly editor thought he, Pickett,
had an ounce of political sense, to
promise postoffice before he had such
things on his person. Mr.. Pickett is
cordially received everywhere and ev-
erything looks as tho he had "a walk
