THE RACES.

The racing cards have been
ever good at the fair grounds
track and there are a large num-
ber of horses present. The
races Thursday were closely con-
tested-that is the running the
trot being a special one mile go
between Boisd'Arc and Redwood
McGregor, two Idaho horses.
This race was a fine exhibition
and the latter was given his first
mark on our association track.
He made the first heat in 2:293
and the other heats were made
in 2::39 and 2:43. In the
quarter mile run Brandy and
Wade Hampton made their usual
spectacular finish with Brandy
nosing out. Time "a.
The ( mile dash free for all
had four starters and it was a
race from the beginning. Jeru-
sha ran, last almost the entire
distance. but moved up at the
proper time and came under the
wire first with Carrie Thatcher
second. Time 1:04n.
Yesterdays races proved to be
as good as the previous day with
a much larger attendance. In
the half-mile trot for Harvey
county horses Chas. Johnson's
Jimmie and The Remittor, own
ep by j. w. Biggs, were the only
starters. Both are Dazzler colts
and quite promising youngsters.
Jimmie took two straight heats
in liza and 1864 respectively.
There were three starters in
the two and a half furlongs for
two-year-olds, Pedro, Ambur-
gran and Tom Cain. They came
under the wire in the order NAM
ed. Time. "a.
The three-eights mile dash free
for all was another battle be-
tween Wade Hampton and Bran
dy with the former winning.
Time 36A. Sylvia olso started.
Three-quarter mile dash free
for all, Confederate, Jerusha
and Bell Griffon were the com
petiors. They finished in the or
der named and was one of the
most most thrilling horses races
ever witnessed over this course

coReED HIMSELF TO DEATH.
Josiah Sleeper Victim Of His Inordinate
Appetite at Unity.

Unity, N. IT., May IT, Stuffed him
self TO death was practically the case
with Josiah Sleeper Of Springfield, an
innate Of the Sullivan county aims
house, who choked to death Friday noon
while at dinner. Sleeper was in the
habit Of getting near the dining hall just
before the dinner gong was sounded and
then make rush for the table, pile
food about him and eat with great
rapidity. Friday the menu was corned
beef, pork. and andelicn green's Sleeper
was at his hurry post when the gong
sounded, rushed to the table, cut off
piece Of eorned beef about two inches
square, put il in his mouth, and fol
lowed it with good filling of greens.
He instantly began to choke. @. A..
Putnam the keeper, had Just entered
the dining hall, and he with the cook,
u. M. Thompson, carried Sleeper ont in
the yard, stood him on his head, pound
ed him on the back and did everything
they could to relieve him, but Sleeper
died in Putnam's arms In less than five
minutes.
DR.. Henry G. Sanders, medical referee,
was called from Claremont, but the man
was dead before he arrived
Sleeper has been an inmate Of the
institution for the past seven years and
was about 10 years old.

Mr.. Taft as He Is.

President Taft's smile is more infec-
tious than that Of any other member Of
the Optimists' club Of America. Il is a
big, whole-sou smile, altogether irre-
sistible. It il surprising how little Mr..
Taft's photographs prepare one for the
man himself, Although weighing over
three hundred pounds, he does not look
like a fat man. The impression Of
strength and keenness is much more DOM
inant than these characteristics He has
clear, ruddy complexion and face
that is not too heavy to be handsome.
Unlike most men, the nearer you come
to him the better be looks. His eyes
are his most remarkable feature. Were
he insignificant in every other respect,
his eyes would mark him as no ordinary
man. They. are a red brown in shade,
with curiously slanted lids. and they
indicate kindness, shrewdness. indexible
determination Their expression is con.
stsntly changing with lightning-like ra-
pidity from mirthfulness to intense seri-
business There is disaster ahead Of the
individual who mistakes this big smiling
mans good nature for asygoingness.

Broughton Brandenburg Brought Back
From San Francisco.

New York, May 17--Broughton Bran
denburg, the magazine writer, whose
troubles quickly followed the publica-
ton of letter in the New York Times
last fall purported TO have been written
by the late Grover Cleveland, is pris-
oner in New York. He was locked up
at police headquarters after being
brought from San Francisco by two de-
tectiyes who were sent from the dis
trict attorneys Office here to the coast
after Brandenburks arrest there some
weeks ago, following his disappearance
from this city when he was wanted for
trial.
Brandenburg, despite his varied ex-
periences and the hardships he says be
has undergone since his indictment for
grand larceny for the sale of the Cleve.
land letter, Is as anxious to explain his
actions as he was in San Francisco. I'M
mediately he reached police headquar.
ters last night he gave out q statement,
embodying not only an explanation Of
why he left New York but a declaration
Of his intention Of fixing unquestionably
the legality Of his marriage with his
second wife, an incident which indirect
" added further interest to his career
through his admitted abduction OF his
second wife's son, James Sheppard
3rd, Of 50. Louis whom he
carried away in true Sidnapper style in
a wicker basket
The statement which starts of with
a reiteration Of his lack of funds and
his subsequent disappearance for the
avowed purpose Of obtaining money to
conduct his defense, declares that "all
the same, the immediate future il GO
ing to be interesting for all hands.
He says that he Is still without money
and that he does not expect bail, and
perhaps may be forced to do without
counsel. Continuing he sets forth his
as follows:
First, to meet the charges In refer
snce to the Cleveland letter. Second, |
10 secure out Of the bad tangle OF this
,ountry's divorce laws in which are in /
volved an unquestioned legality Of the
marriage status between the second Mrs |
Brandenburg and myself. Third, the
recovery OF our boy
In conclusion he said that he had been
quoted as charging various persons
With share in certain conspiracies,
notably District Attorney Jerome"
These statements, he denied.
The Cabanne boy was recently taken
'ack to st. Louis from Stn Francisco.
