MORE RAGING AT
 LATONIA TRACK

Cincinnati, October 21.-The real climax to the racing situation that has threatened the Latonia race track. as well as the general racing prospects throughout Ken lucky, was reached today when suit was filed in the Kenton county circuit court against the Kentucky racing com- mission, namely, J. P. Chinn, E. F. Clay, Milton Young Louis Des Cognets and Charles F. Grainger to have their action levoking the license of Latonia scratched from the commissions minutes and re- view of the revocation be held by the court In substance this means that 1t will probably take 10 days to review the case and probably a month before the court of appeals will finish with 1t, in case it is carried to the highest tribunal in the state.
 In the meantime Latonia will continue racing.
 Going into the suit farther, it shows that the Latonia officials claim that the action of the commission is unconstitu- tional and the court fight means either Latonia will close forever, in case it loses the suit, or the racing commission will become a thing of the past officially, in case Latonia wins.
 The actions have come about through the Latonia management instituting book makers as the form of betting at the fall meeting.
 The commission ruled that pari-mutuels alone were to be allowed in Kentucky. Latonia displayed by it's spring meeting that the track could not run except at great loss under the mutuel system, and pleaded with the commission for the book makers. Their efforts for peaceful set clement, however, were in vain.
 In speaking of the eases here today. Harney Myers president of the Latonia Jockey club, said:
 After they revoked our license we-coula do nothing other than fight. To have quit meant the doing away with races. It will mean the same thing If We lose this suit, but we Intend to seek the limit of courts before we close up our gates
 Owing to the fact that the suit acts very much as restraining order as far as racing at Latonia is concerned, it is not thought probable that the commission will exercise their right to enjoin La- tonia from racing.

ZEPPELIN PRAISES
 AIRSHIP PLANS

Karlsruhe, Baden, October A.-Count Zeppelin is a most devout man, and never fails to attend divine service on the Sab bath He usually goes to church in uni- form, wearing the showy dress of col onel, and always is one of the first to take his seat.
 He listens to the sermon attentively, and not unfrequently waits after services to say a few kind words to the preacher. This course he has followed for many years past, even when dashing cavalry officer 1t was said of him that he was first at church and last at the club.
 Speaking of his invention to the Kaiser, recently he said:
 Pardon me, your Majesty. the good Lord is the inventor, His are the plans which I am trying to put into practical shape"

Sewanee, Tenn, October 21.-Coach Van Surdam's Tigers are now back at work on the mountain, getting in shape for the coming Auburn battle. The team fin- ished the Virginia game in first-class shape, although some of the men were in- jured slightly. The game proved to be one of the hardest fought in Sewanee' s history.
 The Tigers look for hard battle from Auburn, as this team has always been Sewanee's "hoodoo." Word has been re- ceived from the Auburn camp that the

Orange and Blue expects to give the Purple a shock, and if unable to win, at least to keep the score to one touchdown. Auburn appears to have a better team this season than last year, when the Tigers were pushed hard to win by the score of F to O. There will be practically no change in Sewanees lineup from that appearing in the Virginia game.
 Among Sewanees players are several or last seasons All-Southern eleven. These are Faulkinberry, guard; Stone, tackle; Williams, end; I4anier, halfback; Markley. fullbacx, and Barrett, substitute quarter back.

yesterday afternoon, and he pro- fessed to have enjoyed the expert ence, says this mornings Gazette. MT. Donaghey, who was one of the best known contractors in the state prior to his entrance into politics, can easily tell you what the cost ot moving a yard of earth or stone will be, and anything along this line is interesting to the man who will in January succeed John $, Little as governor of this state. So yesterday afternoon he took look over the work now being done in the Union Station yards here and soon made the acquaintance of Engineer Jones, who is in charge of the work at this time.
 Trainloads of earth and stone were being brought into the yards from a point some seven miles from the city, and the work of unload ing it proved interesting to the governor to-be. The operation of the ledgerwood brought out many questions from MT Donaghey, and the better part of the afternoon was was spent in the company of En- gineer Jones
 Beats politics, " said MT. Don aghey, as he boarded an uptown car. Rather take a contract to fill the Union station yards than go through another campaign for governor.

John Strauss, the city pound keeper is again in trouble. Strauss is now under arrest for em bezzle- ment. Some time ago Frank H. Dodge, one of the deputy prosecut- ing attorneys, left his horse with a neighbor and took his family to Mt. Nebo for the summer. The horse got into the pound and was sold for the feed, though the owner of the horse daily telephoned to pound to inquire if the horse had been impounded. Deputy Prose cutting Attorney Dodge has finally caused the arrest of the crippled negro, charging him with embezzl ing the horse.
