in the colors of r. f. Carman and
ran a most consistent race, winning
by a head from Ben Travato in the
good time of 1889 80 for the mile. Ar
court, at 30 to 1, dropped into the show
hole, with Ed Ball and Pretension close
behind. Carman did not unload on
his winner. as he did not know enough
about him, but he had a formal bet
down. King of the Mist and Jack Witt
were left at the post.
Royal Ben was the sharpshooters'
special in the fourth race, and how he
did clean the bookies! With Wood
craft and Mark Antony II scratched,
it looked like Harcourt should have
been about 1 to 100 to win, but the
intelligent brigade went to Astronomer
to win and Royal Ben for the place,
getting 25z to both ways. Royal Ben
won by a head from Astronomer and
Harcourt was third. Powers won for
Royal Ben by his great finish, al
though Treubel was riding Astronomer
for all he was worth.

track from Wolf Creek east as far as
he can see is flooded to a depth of
three feet and that for three miles
or more 1t is completely washd out,

Twenty-eight miles of track are I'M

It is figured conservatively that for
at least twenty days no trains can go
over the line and no repair work can
be done until the water between Wolf
Geek and Cascade recedes.
The washing out of this stretch OF
track between Wolf Creek and Cascade
will tie up practically the entire traf-

Lady Muriel Alison never considers
it derogatory to her dignity to show
that she is the mother of her people"
Christian merely bowed his head in
acknowledgement of this somewhat dig
nified assertion; but Bertha, who hap
pened to be looking at him that mo-
ment, noticed a curl about his lower lip
which almost amounted to a smile. She
was inclined to resent it forthwith;
eve from Christian she could not
brook any slight cast on her divinity.
Breakfast at Dale House that morn
ing was not a very long meal. Lady
Muriel was far too pratical to be in
inclined to dawdle, and very soon went
off to attend to the multifarious engage
ments she either had. or imagined she
had to keep, telling Christian as she
left the room, Mat by u o'clock she
would be free. and hoped he would come
in the shade for an hou before lunch
con and read to her while she worked.
This vas IN arrangement of almost
daily occurrence at Dale House. and
one from which Bertha was always ex-
cluded, on the plea that it vas not good
for girls to read novels.
Christian answered hat he would be
in readiness and delighted, and, mean
time, would saunter down into Arun-
dial and see what had been the outcome
of the filtering the factory was to re-
ceive from Mr.. Aston that morning
