WITH THE HORSES.
Strike Breaker Farley Has Appealed
 From a Decision.

James Farley of Plattsburg the 'strikebreaker," who when he is not busy with labor difficulties is an en- thusiastic horseman appealed to the board of review of the National Trot- ting association at the Murray Hill hotel, New York, from the decision of the judges at Middlebury affect ing his pacer JudeX, now dead. The horse started in the free-for-all at the summer meeting and won the first heats. In the third heat MT Farley's horse was sent to the stable for an alleged foul in the stretch
 Farley drove his pacer and sent Ju- dex under the wire in the first two heats in front of Jennie w. and Ec- static. In the next heat Judex, the judges claim, cut off the field on the turn into the stretch and they retired the pacer.
 It is from this decision that Far ley is appealing and his case is enter ed in the docket of the board of re- view as against the Addison county Agricultural society of Middlebury, Vt. Verbal testimony was heard in which both sides give their version of the case. Farley claimed that he had the right of way in the stretch and that there was enough space for the other entrants to come through on the rail-
 No disposition of the case was made and the board will hear further evidence. Attorney Moore will ap- pear for Farley. The men who will hear the evidence are President Peter P. Johnston, Secretary w. H. Gosher, II. N. Baine, William Russell Allen and A. P. Sandles.
 Next in interest to the Farley case at the meeting was the case of Caleb Spencer of Newton, Mass, and H.. Brusie of New Haven against the New England Trotting Horse Breed CTS association of Reidville. Spen- cer and entrant in the American trotting derby at Readville on August 25. They, claim Jay Kay finished sixth in the big race. The judges placed Peter Balta in sixth position and awarded it sixth money.
 W. Heating of New York and George Leavitt of Readville, Mass, two of the judges at the Readville meeting, and W. Snow, the driver of Peter Balta, testified that Peter fin ished sixth in the race. Spencer and Brusie offered photographs of the race to prove that Jay Kay finished sixth and not Peter. Balta. Decision was reserved.

Health ohicer After Sewage.

Health Officer Kilmartin has quite job on his hands now and before he gets through it is thought that the bureau of engineering will be asked to make some borinss with a view to locating the source of sew age which is boiling out of the sand near Poplar and Green streets. Resi- dents of the neighborhood claim they cannot account for it and asked the board of public works to look into it. The job was turned over to the health officer, who will give it his attention as soon as he is officially notified of the resolution addressed to him. Some claim the sewage is coming from an old cesspool which was cov- cred up years ago on the high hills and is now working its way into the valley. The odor from it is offensive and everybody gives it a wioe berth.

ITALIAN AND INDIAN
Dorando and Longboat are Matched
 to Meet.


 Dorando and Longboat were form ally matched yesterday afternoon to meet in Marathon race in the Gar den on the night of December 15. Their managers, after conference, agreed upon terms and both men will begin training at once. Long boat wanted a, month in which to prepare himself for a meeting with the great Italian runner, but, as there was no open date available for race In the Garden, he finally yielded and will place himself in the hands of Tom Eek. It is probable that the Indian twill take long runs on the country roads in order to get fit, as indoor work Is not consid- cred by Eek to be the proper caper. Dorando Is in excellent condition now and says that he does not re- quire much hard work to keep on edge. It is said that Longboat will attract big delegation of Canadians to the track side, as he Is looked up- on as an idol in the Dominion. Johnny Hayes wants another race with the Italian and has received as surances that he will be accommo- dated early next year.

INITIAL "D' ON ONE RING
Name on Hotel Register, Mrs. s. H,. FaIconer of Sioux Falls, s. D." Proves to Bs Fistitious-Tailor Who Made Canary Colored Suit She Wore Thinks She Is Mrs. Doty, Whose Sis- ter Lives at Sound Beach, Conn.

New York, Dec. 3.--A beautiful, re- fined young woman clad in quiet, per feet, luxurious taste was found dead In room in the Hotel Clarendon, Brooklyn, with bullet hole in. her right temple and revolver lying be side her on the floor.
 In her suicide, for 1t was that un- doubtedly, those who found her face most tautalizing mystery. Who? And why?
 On the hotel register the young wo- man was Mrs. s. H. Falconer, Sioux Falls. $. D. In reality, according to dispatches from that place, she was not Mrs. Falconer. No such person was known there.
 She was apparently New Yorker. The names of several Fifth avenue firms were upon her garments. And she had beyond a doubt planned her suicide carefully, for almost every gar ment was new and worn for the first time.
 The girl left no notes, no messages. On the table in her room was silken bag in which were costly gems, dia- mond, ruby and sapphire rings, q bracelet and pearl brooch.
 A cut glass toilet box with solid gold top, bottle of smelling salts with gold top. small gold coin with the Lords Prayer engraved thereon, heavy gold horseshoe pin studded with twelve small opals and three'large ann Der headed hatpins were among the other articles found.
 The beauty of the woman is striking. That she was from the better walks of life seemed evident in her apparel and appearance. Her nails were man. toured Her clothing was of perfect fit and stylish cut. Her teeth were regular and we'll kept.
 She wore an expensive Russian pony fur coat and black heavy hat with gold braid and couple of peacock feathers.
 The hat bore the name Ambrose" and the address 353 Fifth avenue, New York. There were three amber pins sticking in it-one in the shape of shepherds crook. the others merely round balls. The pony coat was slight ly torn at the lining inside the collar, where the makers name had been ripped out.
 The girls suit was of canary colored broadcloth, made in the semidirectoire fashion, in one piece, with a row of buttons extending down the front of the skirt from the. waist to the hem. This bore the name Thatcher and the address West One Hundred and Fourth street.
 Mfr. Thatcher said: "There was a wo- man for whom I made dress like that. She was Mrs. Doty, although can't recall her address. She was in my place with her sister, Mrs. A. l.. McMurty of Sound Beach, Conn.,"
 In a purse that the woman carried were found handkerchief bearing the initial "D," ring in which the same initial was interwoven with oth- ers tiny gold key and Mystic Shrine pin with the initials "J. c. D."

Equal Rights Association Says Male
 Jurors Are Unjust.

New York, Dec. 3.-Declaring that juries composed of men are unjust to women. the William Lloyd Garrison Equal Rights association at meeting at the residence of Mrs. Henry Willard decided to investigate the desirability of having juries of women for women accused of crime.
 Mrs. l.. De NJ. Weiss said that wo- men were greatly discriminated against in the courts, and she thought that one way to give them fairer deal would be to have them tried by juries composed of members of their own sex.
 'The constitution says that every cit. izen is entitled to be tried by jury of his peers. We are undoubtedly citi- zens. But are men our peers? They are not"
