 cd to Come. ss,s3o PURSES AND STAKES Running Races Will Be Genuine,
 Drawing from Circuit. The Entries to Date Have Been An- nounced, Comprising SIX Days In AE-open Cntii October

The people who come to the fair in October will see in Montgomery some of the best running races that have been held here in twenty years.
 This statement was made by Stcre- tary F. F. Chaffee, of the Alabama Az ricultural Association. yesterday. Mr. Chaffee returned yesterday h.orninY from Nashville. where he mas been to get entries for the harness and run ming races in Montgomery during the week of the fair
 The entries for the fair here were to close last Tuesday night, but on ac- count of the fact that a number of horsemen who had not entered wanted to bring their horses to Montgomery Mir. Chaffee reopened the entries and will hold them open until the 10th Of October. He was very enthusiastic about the high standard of the races during the fair. Most of the harness he rses now racing in Nashville and that will race over the Southern cir cult will be In Montgomery.
 In regard to the running end of the game he said that in the neighborhool of 100 thoroughbreds will be quartered at the track, the ponies coming from Lexington and other points up the line. They are headed for the winter running meeting in New Orleans and by racing here will pay expenses and break the long jump to the Crescent City. There will be eight running races-and they will be genuine run ming races, none of the absurd, local stable horse affairs that have prevail ed at the last two fairs.
 During the meeting $5.330 will be hung up by the association in purses and stake races, though fortunately there will be only two stake races. Among the features will be the 2:15 pace in the afternoon of the opening day, the 2:16 trot on Wednesday. the 2:10 trot Thursday, the 2:12 pace Fri day and the 2:09 pace Saturday. this latter promising to be the banner event of the entire meeting

HOUSES SCARCE
Almost Impossible to Find q Vacant
,'% -. House In Devils Lake

There has not been time In num-
ber of years when there were SO few
vacant houses in Devils Lake as this
spring. 1t is impossible for strangers
coming to the city to find desirable
places to live. Of course this speaks
we'll for the town, for the progress of
the city, the rapid growth and the
continual increase in the population.
Why don't some one who has money
to invest build a number of neat sub
stantial houses? Surely it would be
a good paying proposition and If after
they were build the builder did not
care to retain them ais desirable money
makers he could find ready sales for
them.
We know of at least a dozen differ
ent parties who have been hunting
for houses the past two weeks and
we're unable to find a desirable place
to live and right now there are fully
as many families who are living In
dug-outs just because 1T Is impossible
to find a more desirable place. All
people are not rich and can not afford
to build there own homes and the
moneyed interest of this city who have
plenty of capital to invest in the build
ing of houses and who are boarding
their gold away so that they can take
it with them when they die, when they
might invest few thousand dollars
in building desirable places for strang-
/ ers as wen as those who have been
residents here for some time. 4 \
+ What builds up, a great city if it
is not speculation Rome wasn't built
); in day and we do not expect Devils
Lake to be built in chat length of time
abut we would like to see the moneyed
Interests of this city loosen up and
build some houses.

II. F. Bellows Meets With
Accident at Stock Yards.
---Dies at HOSPITAL

H. F. Bellows, of Cando met with
an accident at the stock yards in this
city Wednesday that resulted in his
death few hours afterwards. He was
on his way to Savage, Mimi, with
some horses that he was careing for
which were being shipped By Mr.. Curt
Lord and was standing In the open
door of the car while the train was be-
ing switched and was waiting for his
car to be left at the shoot so that he
could unload his horses and give them
the necessary feed and water which
is customary at this point with all
stock that is shipped through here.
The part of the train that the engine
was attached to had released the, car
that Mr.. Bellows was riding in and
it was on it's way to the shoot when it
struck some other cars that were
standing on the side track and the jar
of the car against the others caused
the door of the car he was standing
in to close and as he had his head
part way out of the car door it struck
i, him with much violence and caused a
severe fracture Of the skull abo IT
three inches in diameter on the left
side Of his head just above the ear.
\ He thought but little OF the accident
!, at the time and got out Of the car and
showed it to the switching crew who
advised him to go to a doctor and
have his head dressed This he re
j fused to do so the crew took him tt
where they got some water and they
I washed that part Of his head which
had been fractured and took him bacl
to the car where his stock was. Here
he reamined and the train crew wen
to. dinner and after they returned t.
their work, they went to the car wher.
\ they had left him and were surprise.
to find him stretched out on the ca
4 floor unconscious. The ambulenc
!. was iIhnlad diately Summoned. and b
was taken to Mercy Hospital and wa
J, given the best possible medical after
