THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH.
Laughter Better Than Sour Milk as
 an Elixir of Life.

A celebrated French scientist re- news the contention that the active principle of sour milk is a remedy for old age.
 Certain bacteria in the milk, 1t is said, are a foe to the germ of old age. In the Balkans, where sour milk or "yogurt" is staple article of diet, there are great numbers of centena- rians, and their longevity is accredit- ed to the daily use of sour milk.
 There may be, or may not be, something in this theory. Long life in the Balkans could be due to total- ly different causes. The hardy noun taineers live simple and abstemious life, and they breathe pure atmos- phere-conditions conducive to a life long continued and healthful.
 Paris has had, from Cagliostro to Brown-Sequard, scores of clever fel- lows with schemes for living long In addition to the yogurt plan there are at present sea water scheme, a vegetarian regime, Unitarian idea, and new fangled electrical treat
 
 posed efficacy of preventing arterial sclerosis, or gradual hardening of the arteries, which causes decay, old age, and the end.
 But in the battle against death there is weapon better than any presented by scientists. There is a fountain of youth born in some of us, something that requires no scien- tific investigation, no laboratory ex- periments, no delving into bacteriolo- gy. It is one of the gifts left when good fairies are present at birth.
 This prize, second only to the love that makes the world go round, is a sense of humor. It's expression con- sists of smiles and laughter. These are agencies which not only help rule the world, but are more power ful factors for peace and good will than all the battleships and bayonets in the history of nations. Sour milk may be all right, but most of us would rather stake our chances for long life on a contented disposition and an ability to laugh heartily at d good joke.-Philadelphia Times.

WEAKNESS IN WESTERN CIRCUIT
Youngstown. O.. Dispatch Says Things
 Are Doubtful Whereabouts.

Youngstown, Ohio, Oct 5.-From present appearances the attempt to reorganize the Interstate Polo league will meet with failure. In but one or two cities of the propos- ed circuit is there any signs of en- thusiasm. This city and one or two others have the fever, but the small- CT towns do not take strongly to the idea. Last season the league was carried along for several weeks af- ter 1t was plain that it was a losing fight and that the National league had the upper hand. While one or two of the larger places in the cir- cult made a little money, the little fellows lost heavily and the pronnot- CTS of these clubs are shy of going into the game again for the benefit of somebody else.
 Another factor that has entered into the situation is the proposed New York State league, It is under stood here that several stars have already signified their intentions of casting their fortunes with the new organization. IL Is also believed that the National league will fight. and polo war with it's certain disaster for, everybody concerned. including the players, is not desired by the mag mates.
 "The meeting called for the pur- pose of organizing the league has been twice postponed. and. although smother date has been set. there Is no. certainty that 1t will be held. First called for Sunday night. It was postponed until Monday night, owing to the failure of some of those who were supposed to be interested to announce their intentions On Mon- day night II was again postponed un- til Wednesday and then again put 06.

THE HORSES
DAN HART PULLS
 OFF A KILLING
Milton s. Jr Took Three Straight
 Heats at Columbus Last Saturday.

The killing that was predicted out in Columbus took place on Saturday and D. T. Hart of this city will car " home with him thousands of dol- lars from the packers of the other horses in the race in which he took part Saturday afternoon. Driver Walter Cox will also be heavy win ner, as he knew what was in the animal and was certain of delivering the goods. He would have done so last week, but for an accident, when in turning out to pass Tax Title. who was leading, Governor Searles, the third horse in the race, interfered and Milton S., Jr, was thrown to his knees. He was pulled to hts feet quickly and then was only beaten by a head by Tax Title. When there fore the books were opened up Sat" urday the Waterbury men plunged on the horse and they proved their claim that he Is one of the best horses that ever left the state of Connecticut. The Columbus account of the race Is as follows:
 Columbus, O., Oct 5.-In splen- did race Milton S., Jr, driven by Walter Cox, Saturday carried away first money in the 2:11 pacing event of the last Grand Circuit programme of the. year here Saturday afters noon. Running perfectly Milton S., Jr, made the pace throughout for the field and made Iew record, 2:06&a the fastest he has ever been driven and the fastest ever made by a Waterbury horse in this class Dan T. Hart. owner of Milton S., Jr, was the proudest man in Columbus Sat urday night. as he is the owner of the first Waterbury horse to run in a Grand Circuit race. He Is particu- larly pleased with the showing made by his horse, whose best previous record, made here several days ago. was 2:07A In the second heat Sat urday, the new record was establish ed and in the third Milton s., Jr, ran under the wire in splendid con dition, while the clocks showld all most as fast time as s.that of the first heat. Governor Searles put up a splendid fight for the prize.
 Ruth Dillon, last weeks winner of the Hoster- Columbus $10,000 stake, made start in 2:16 class trot Sat, urday. but was never in evidence She was the favorite with Lady Jones. the, winner, good second choice
 Allen Wilson, winner of the 2:05 pace, was forced to step 2:03A to kee pout of the road of Dan S., in the first heat of their race. The Wilson mare was favorite at 5 to 3 over the entire field.

AMERICAN LEAGUE.

Chicago, Sept 5.--The White Sox caved in Detroit's bulwarks yesterday and gained fighting chance for the pennant. It was a strange sort of a game, for Jones's men made only two hits and yet acquired three runs, while the Tigers collected but one run off four safeties. Both White and Killian pitched as If their lives de- pended on 1t, and the slender dentist came out ahead. At that the game would have been tied but for a start ling catch by Parent as the windup of the fray The first man in the ninth. Crawford, drew free ticket. Cobb and Rossman were feeble before the left-handed doctor, their combined efforts only getting Crawford to sec ond.. Here Schaefer, always nuis- ance to the Sox, banged hit to right, scoring Crawford. Mullin went up and was hit by a ball. Jones ran for him and stole second, while Schaefer slid into third. It was up to Downs, who drove out a terrific swat. Parent made remarkable catch, while the public gave vent to wild exhibition The score: R.H.E.

 ed his intention to return to the National league and with him will go several players who were figured on for the proposed circuit. Mrs Fred Jean, who has been here for some time in expectation that the league would start and that her hus> band would be manager of one of the teams, left for home last week, satisfied that the project was fail ure. Jean has been one of the most persistent boomers of the reorganiza- tion idea and as nothing has been heard from him, together with the fact that his wife has returned east, gives the matter of his being in the circuit bad look.
 Bobby Hart and digger Higgins are working hard to get the league started, but they appear to be the main strength of the movement as far as the players are concerned. It is known that considerable mum. Der of them have declared their in tention of sticking to the National league. The matter is all in the air, and whether the league will be or ganized or the promoters throw up the sponge is still problem.
 The expected has happened. The Western Polo league, about which there has been so much talk and the statement that it would be such an opponent of the National Polo league, is, according to advices from the center of operations in the west, and to put it vulgarly, a dead one.
 It now comes to light that Jig ger" Higgins and Bog Hart have been the prime movers in the effort to reopen the game out there. Those who put up the money, however, hav- ing lost heavily in the effort last season are rather. shy about taking a chance.
 The interest which Higgins has in the reforming of the league out there can be readily seen when it is known that in Youngstown, O., he is the owner of a saloon and if he plays polo in that city and becomes a favorite he would not only be get ting the money he would draw as a salary, but would be attracting at tention to his place of business and would therefore make money on both ends of the deal. What Bob Hart's interest is Is not known. Fred Jean has apparently given up the game out there as failure, for with his wife he has returned east and Lewis, the speedy rusher, says that he is going to stick by the National
 Now, then, all the competition there will be against the National Is the new New York State league which an effort has been made or is being made to promulgate, and this looks as if 1t would not be a go, Polo In the east will, judging by in dications. flourish this season after all and unimpeded.

that they have more than two mil
Lon men employed probably that
is true. They think that they can
vote these men as a unit for railroad
interests and probably that is un-
true. The Hearst people think that
they can put ticket in the field
that cannot by any possibility this
year be successful, but that might
be successful four years from nov.
but American voters are not inclined
to wait four years for success.
This matter of new parties must
be judged from the standpoint of
the voter, That standpoint ought 40
be fixed from past history, There has
never been a third party established
except in times Of serious political
trouble. The republican party at one
time was a third party, but It was
founded on the issue Of slavery and
progressed to success on the issue
of civil war There is nothing today
to justify a new party. The republican
party and the democratic party can
amply serve the needs of the vote"s

will have little standing with the
people.
