VICTORY FOR HUGHES
BILL AGAINST BETTING AT RACE .s TRACKS IS PASSED.
Death kneII to Rncfng in State of New xork Co Sounded--strfcken Senator kfoelIxe Saved
 the Day

Albany, N. F.. June 1I--A legislative battle. which for dramatic interest and intensity of feeling on both sides. has not been eQuaiied tn this State. came to an end today when the heroisw of SensroE DossiS1a fslksr; Of Brooklyn. made !. books two bills repeating the legal dis criminaton which for thirteen years has protected public gambling within race track enclosures, while 1t was felony elsewhere in the State. The vote on each of the bills was 26 to 2b.
 The lineup was in general the same as as that nat, in the regular session. when vote of 2s to 25. but since then, Senator Wallace, of Niagara Falls. has been elected to the seat then vacant by req and his vote made the necessary twer- ty-sixth.
 Senator Foelker. who underwent an operation May 10 for appenditicis and tervening time was critical, came up from Staatsburg last evenng. the jour ney of sixty miles being severe tax stronger this morning and was taken to tho Senate Chamber just as the roll call on a dilatory motion was being weakness and his. response when his name was reached was scarcely aud. lble. He waE encouraged by his fellow Senators sympathy, and on both of
 
 the bills voted with the majority.
 Afterwards his doctor said:
 Senator Foelker stood the ordeal as well as could be expected: He Is very nervous. We have not decided when we shall return to Statesburg."
 "Is Senator Foelker in dangerous conditionpg the doctor was asked.
 No; he not" the doctor replied. Governor Hughes has already signed the bills and there will be no more betting at race tracks in New York State.
 Governor Hughes said, when inform ed of the passage of the bills: T am deeply gratihed at this result. It Is victory for law and order. the importance of which can not be over estimated"
 Referring to Senator Foleyer who left his sick bed to cast his vote for the bills, the Governor said:
 The act of Senator Foelker in com ing to the Senate in his weak condition was most heroic and worthy of the anne praise that we give to distin. guished service on the battlefield"

Hard BIovv. saye belmont

London. June 11,---When seen tonight on the subject of the anti-gambling bills just passed In the New York State Legislature. August Belmont, Chairman of the jockey club, who has not yet recovered from the. shock of the death of his brother 0 H. P. Belmont. at first did not desire t0 dis- cuss the matter. but when 1t was re- marked that Americans were anxious to hear something from him. he con- scented to give the following brief statement:
 T cannot say what the various rac- in9 associations will do when the so- called anti-racing bill. just passed by the Senate of New York State. becomes a law through the Governors sigma ture. which doubtless will be affixed as soon as the measure comes before him.
 The various associations however. have racing features to run on tllls season which constitute sporting ohfl- Eations and they will undoubtedly live up to them No aAe can well predict whether or not the prohibition Of bet- tir- at races will ruin horse racing ir- retrievably, but Is A severe blow to the hest interests of the turf in. any event. IL will ultimately throw many men out of employment and cripple the breed ing and improvement of thoroughbred horses in the United States.

A new locomotive engine under2oes
u thorough test before it is sent out on
the road to take its share OF work. When
q new engine is taken into chop it is
turned over to a mechanic whose duty 1t
is to tit it up and make all connections
and adjustments Of the interior mech.
anism. This COIL pleted, the engine is
turned over TO fireman, who s:eams it
I'D and blows it off in order to remove
any grease that may have accumulated
in che boiler, or such foreign substances
ns might cause boiler to @foam" while
in service. The engine is then turned
over to an engineer, whose duty it is
to,Sbreak" it In. The engine ia the q
steamed up again, and il it will run is
taken for a little tryout about the yard
says the Scientific American.
II alEgoes well and there ie no,heating
i'll the journals or brasses, the engine is
worked for few houre, and then the
steam is again blown off. IT. is next
sent out on a long-distance trip, at a
speed varying from one to twenty miles
an hour, and drawing about half
its full load.
Heating is one Of the principal dis
eases OF an engine, and it is this feature
the engineer looks to more than any,
thing else. The me chanical sense Of the
experienced engineer is 40 developed
that he can detect the least defect about
his engine.

First Idea Of the TELEGRAPH.

Long before Prof. S. f. b. Morse
had perfected his great invention the
word telegraph" was used for a sort
or semaphore. In the French revolu-
ton telegraph" assisted by tele-
scopes, was devised to carry news
over immense distances. Forty years
before this time, however there was
published the first detailed scheme for
communication by means of electricity.
1t Is outlined in Il letter to the Scots
magazine, written February 1; 1853,
from Renfrew and signed &C. ~" This
suggestion was to transmit charge
from the conductor Of an electrical
machine at the sending station along
an insulated wire to the receiving ma
chine, the presence of the charge be-
ing indicated by the behavior of a
light pith ball or the passage of a
spark" Each letter Of the alphabet
was to have a separate 'vire, so that
any word might be spelled out and
any message sent.

Intellectual People Could Not Locate State Of
Nevada

Tie group of highly intellectual peo-
pie was discussing Materlink's essaye
and other erudite subjects with easr and
skill. Directly the conversation turned
upon recent happening in Nevada,
whereupon frankly ignorant person
asked the exact location of Nevada.
The group of intellectual people was
silent as one man for a while. Then
the individuals began TO express their
opinions on the auhJect. One man aaid
that Nevada was north OF Idaho. but
when the location Of Idaho WAS asked +,
ne relupsed Tito dignitied silence.
A woman with we'll defined ideas on
all sorts and conditions Of things eaid
that Nevada was bounded on the east
by Colorado, and maintained her pc.
sitlon III an Grafton of great brilliance.
Two or three Of the group maintained
that Nevada wac near neighbor OF
Mexico, but W he thu r old or New Mexico
they were not sure.
young man who is a Phi. D. OF a
noted institution, said that the state to
the south Of Nevada was undoubtedly
Oklahoma, and woman who insisted
that Nevada was somewhere near Oregon
was laughed to scorD."
When several Of the persons who we're
agreed about telepathy and the supe-
riority Of mind to matter, and pscy cho-
logicol influence, began to quarrel with
each other over this geographical de-
tail, come one produced aD atlas, and
then lot ~ chained men and women
hastily changed the subject back to !, So
practical end more learned subjects.
THIS little incident goes to show that
not all the inhabitants OF these United
States know everything about their

The Origin OF III Dollar

The word "dollar' is " German orig in :,
according to the preponderance OF
authority, so says Editor Sosey of
Soseyvillp. The coin was first mintnd
in Joachimstahl, Germany and received
the name OF JoachmstahIer, which, for
the sake OF brevity, was shortened INTO
thaler.
In Spain it was called the dalero,
which the Spain conquests brought; to
America.
When the United States established
a syStom Of coinage for this countr, it
adopted the old Spanish pillar--sonle-
times called milled, on account of it's
milled rim--doilar as ita unit.
This dollar was called the pillar dollar,
from the pillars Of Hercules, the two
promontoriee facing each other across
the straits Of Gibrpltar, the emblem Of
the pillars appearing on the coin.
The dollar sign is eaid to be the cnr
ruption Of the serpeu,s twining around
these pillare, rs they appeared on the
old Spanish dollar.
Another authority states that the
name comes from the taleut Of the
middle ages, and that the dollar sim
comes from certain OF the old pieces Of
eight. g
Across the figure eight on this partl.
cular coin two straight lines-supposed
