81 am in favor of prohibiting not

conservative man yesterday. This
is relative to the statement that a
citizen is to be prosecuted for selling
ice cream and soft drinks on a day
not mentioned in the Ten Command
ments but observed at present as
Sunday at place outside the limits
of a city. Ifit has come topass that
a working man or any other man on
his day of recreation cannot indulge
himself in the slightest pleasure with
out the law butting in, then let's
carry it to it's legitimate conclusion.

possible. The voters had scarcely more

such a state had been carried for Taft,

take into consideration nowadays the

A MELANCHOLY CLOSE.
OF the Metropolitan Racing Season in
New York.

NEW lOIbs
New York. Nov. 5.--With a frigid wind
bowling through the great grandstand
where thousands were wont to gather
when the interest in the sport was at
its height, a little band OF 500 regulars"
saw the metropolitan racing season Of
zoos come to melancholy close yester-
day. The public interest in racing has
been on the wane since early summer,
when the law which had permitted the
making Of wagers in pubic at the race
tracks was replaced by another positively
prohibiting public betting and providing
a severe penalty for violations. Largely
as result of the greatly reduced attend
anee, one Of the big tracks which has
enjoyed popularity for many years has
been dismantlcd and the field cut up
into house lots and during the past few
weeks there have been races only three
or four times a week Whether this
plan of shortened meetings will be fol-
lowed out next year or the game, as it
is called. practically abandoned, is yet to
be determined. In the meantime many
wealthy owners have transferred the
best horses in their stables to sections
where the laws governing betting are not
SO stringent as here, large number Of
horses have been sent to Europe.
The feature of the card yesterday
was the handicap at six furlongs and
resulted in q good finish, Royal Onyx

miles up the river. They were
hungry and footsore and wanted a
bite to cat While the women
folks were preparing meals for the
weary and famished travellers, the
conversation drifted to snakes of
which there are a-plenty along the
river, aud the old man told of an
experience he had had in Wyoming
several years ago. He and his
palmer were engaged in the pleasing
vocation of catching rattlesnakes
for their oil. which. the old man
said. is worth IS an ounce Four
snakes of ordinary size. he also
said, will yield an ounce. and
there is ready market for the pro-
duct. The oil, the old man ex-
planned, is used by acrobats to keep
their muscles supple. Early
in the morning of one day. they
ran across a deep hole in the rocks,
and while peering into it looscned
a stone, which rolled into the pit.

explained by the fact that she was

and by her anxiety about the condi-

horribly burned. R. F. Soule was
terrible burned in attempting to re-

found his wife, bathed in flames as
she was, when he was called to her

trampled on the fire and with his
