LODALLER
The Beautiful

No quality helps more in selling
roadster than elegant conformation and
style. If you get these qualities you
have to breed for them and horse to
transmit them surely must not only
possess them himself, but must inherit
them strongly through both sire and
dam. Lodaller's sire, Allerton, 2:O94,
is noted for string beauty when bred to
mares like the dams of Lodaller and
Locanda.
The dam of Lodaller, Lodina, 2:184,
was, in racing condition, one of the
handsomest mares that ever scored for
the word. Like her son, she could race
and maintain her good looks. Her
series of spllt-heat races with Chain
Shot, 2:O64, over Wisconsin half mile
tracks, in her last campaign, proved
her much greater trotter than her
record indicates. Her defeat of Chain
Shot at Beaver Dam, was pronounced
by Pres. Newton, of the Wisconsin
State Fair, the best race he ever saw.
Lodaller started out, in emulation of
his dam, by winning seven blue ribbons
in three different states, defeating
many horses, and causing others to re-
main in the barn, that had never before
been defeated. AS race horse he won
four times in his class and was second
in a free-for-all. Then a runaway
crashed into him in his fifth race and
ended his winning. But for this he
would have taken record as good as
2:15 last fall. Some keen judges say
better.
Ifyou want to breed trotters handsome
and fast, Lodaller is your horse. His
foals are all fine looking, good gated
trotters, no PAGERS, not even from
pacing mares.
His class as a race horse is indicated
by his defeating in contested races,
over half mile tracks, such stations as
Sir Boreal, Allie Dale, Wisconsin Bill,
Henry o., and The Fox. The latter
horse twice.
Lodaller's fee is $4,000 to insure
mare with foal. Mares losing their
foals may be returned free of charge
or the money will be refunded, at my
option. Mondays and Tuesdays at

simple. gentle old boy that l served
had read the secret. From the molten
eruptions of the racked earth he had
taken gases and potencies that are
nameless. BY what methods of combi-
nation and refining do not know, he
produced something that was to be the
final word of power Control-control
that was all that lacked.
Reduced to its simplest terms it
meant this: The doctor had something
as much greater than radium as radi-
UNI is greater than the pitchblende
of which thousand tons are melted
down to the one ounce of extract. And
the Incredible energies of this he pro-
posed to divide into departments of ac-
tivity. One manifestation should be
light-a light that would illuminate
the world. Another was to make mo-
tive power so cheap that the work of
the world could be done in an hour out
of the day. Some idea he had of heal
ing properties. Yes. He was to cure
mankind: or kill, kill as no man had
ever killed, did he choose. The armies
and navies of the powers would be
at his mercy. Magnetism was to be
his slave. Aerial navigation, transmu-
tation of metals, the screening of grav-
ity-does this sound like delirium

effort to do this when the press Is in
flaming the public against the many
foreign elements is taken to Inn
ply championship Of anarchy ITSELF"
Miss Adams goes on to tell of the re-
actions of the Ayerbuch affair upon
the Russian Jewish colony of which
the young man was a newly arrived
member. Land about to be bought for
a rural Hebrew colony was withdrawn
from sale, school children OF the Jews
We're hooted and stoned on the streets,
and young people were insulted and
jostled In the cars. All OF the colony
felt the injustice of the hasty conclu-
Sion of press and public that Averbuch
was an anarchist, which searching
investigation by the authorities failed
to establish. The injustice Of 1t all
ranked in the minds of the foreigners,
and Miss Adams warns that the pur-
suance Of such an unintelligent policy
may increase the very tendencies
which 1t is DESTROYS to suppress. She
regrets that this opportunity was not
taken to show the Russian colony how
different and more fair is the course
of Justice in America. On the contrary,
the Chicago police had outraged decen-
cy in their treatment Of the Russians
and utterly ignored their constitutional
rights, the sister of Ayerbuch being
"sweated" fnhumanly In sight of her
brothers dead body. The same papers
which spread the charge of anarchy
did nothing to correct that impression
when the inquest failed to disclose an
archist connections Of the boy Shippy
shot. Since that event membership In
all the radical societies among the Rus,
slams has increased rapidly, registering
the conviction that in moment Of
panic a republican government cared
no more for justice and fair play than
an autocratic government did" Final
ly attention is called to the fact that
the police themselves lay the acts Of
violence to their own repressiye meas
ures and then advocate more repres-
sion.
