COW
STARTS SOMETHING
Breaks Away From Farmer
And Then Tries to Enter
Post Office.
OWNER LED MERRY CHASE
WHILE THE LARGE CROWD OF
CHRISTMAS SHOPPERS HALT
TO WITNESS THE SPECTACLE
OF RUNAWAY MIXER.

The "chug chug" of an automobile,
which CHANGED to be rounding the cor
ner of Ninth and North A streets Fri
day afternoon about ) O'Clock, proved
to be too much for the nerves of COW
belonging to Charles Wise. a farmer.
residing near Centerville. and which
was being led behind a wagon going
south on Ninth street. With mighty
jerk, the animal broke loose from the
strap which held it a captive and en-
gagged Iii few circus stunts never at
tempted in Richmond before. The
first feat tried by the mixer was that
of clir.bing the postoffice steps. The
animal got up the steps alright. but
the revolving door proved an enigma
it had never bucked up against, and
impeded further progress in that par
ticular.
Makes Wild Dash.
The cow then made wild dash
across the pOstOffice yard and west in
the alley until Eighth street was
reached Here the animal became be-
wildered, but urged on by the cries of
hundreds of holiday shoppers on that
street. the bossey blew by Scott Win
ters, the policeman at the corner o.
Eighth and Main street, like cyclone,
lodging in an out between street cars,
automobiles and vehicles of all posi-
BILE kinds and descriptions with an
alacrity truly remarkable for rural
COW, unused to city ways. The big
cop blinked and wondered if he were
seeing things.
In the meantime the excited owner
had stitched his horse. and although
handicapped in the race by half a
square was soon in hot pursuit. Puff
fing< and all out of breath he finally
caught up with the animal at the cor
ner of South Eighth and A street,
where after about ten minutes of coax
ing and gentle persuasion, during
which time a large crowd gathered. he
at last got strargle hold and half
Nelson clutch on the mixer and she
was his for keeps. Considerable diff
Guilty was experienced in getting the
COW back through the crowded business
distr.c. to it's destination. but the feat
was successful accomplished and the
journey to the slaughter house was
then resumed without further feature.

THE GRAND.

Phoenix show gOers will find a good vaudeville bill at all the houses this week. and this includes the Grand Though the attendance was not what it might have been last night, ti,c acts were presented as though to packed houses. and tonight the Grand should be filled at both shows.
 Loui and Aldo have an acrobatic act that deserves being seen, being both original and well handled. An act that has cost some money.
 One of the most dainty and Dewitch- ing little actresses seen recently on Phoenix is Miss Cores of the team of ECisnC- ard Cores It is worth the price of admission just to look at her. Perhaps her best song is T Want a Postal Card From YOu.'
 Some of the Representations of Gavin Gilman are worth listening to a cecond time. One of his best is that startling scene in the Music Master when David Warfield gives that remarkable tNhibi- tion of emotional acting which ends with his striking his breast and beat ing upon the piano cover. Other inn presentations are F. H. Southern and Joseph Jefferson.

Chicago, Aug. 24.-The wheat mar ket experienced several short periods of firmness at different times today. but sentiment was bearish and prices ranged generally below yesterdays close. Radical declines in the price of wheat in leading European grain cen ters and the continued declining ten dency of cash prices in this country were the principal bearish factors.

All Business Transacted With the
 Magnate in Mind

New York, Aug. 24.-The operations of the stock market were governed largely by circumstances attending the arrival of MT. Hartman. Almost all other considerations were overshodow- cd by this one event. The street was showered all day with bulletins recording the progress of his ship to- wards port and some encouragement was manifested in a wireless message sent by the railroad magnate to the Associated Press some hours in ad- vance of his landing, wherein he spoke of his condition as being good and reiterated his statement of June 1st last. the substance of which was that the country was going forward in highly satisfactory manner. The bond market was irregular in sympathy with the movement of stocks. Total sales S2.976,eOO Government bonds unchanged.

If the duke of the Abruzzi. says the New York World, has reached a cer- tainly known height of 24.600 feet on an East Indian mountain, he has per formed one of the greatest feats of hu- man endurance on record.

 The presence of Bryan in the city on September 21 is to be officially recognized Sy the city government as well as by the business mems as- soc.ation. This is certain and will be settled by resolution at the meet ing of the council on Saturday nor, ming.
 The Chamber of Commerce and Mines has already appointed it's com, mittee to receive the great common, CT, but it was and is only proper that so prominent a factor in the af' fairs of the nation should be recog nized municipally. This was the idea when a motion was made at the last council meeting that the mayor appoint a committee. At that time Mayor Greene stated that the only action he would take on the matter would be to appoint the whole coun cil. It was then suggested that a resolution be adopted and this is what is to be done on Saturday nor ping.
 Thus the city as well as its bus. ness interests is to be represented on Bryan day.

 BALK LINE CUE TITLE
Indiana 8ilIisrdIst Surprises Fans by Downing Veterans In Recent
 Championship Tournament.

Tie success of Ora c. MoTningstar in winning the recent 1S:2 balk-line billiard championship over such vet erans as George Sutton, George Slos- son and Louis Cure in the New York tournament, proved a great surprise to devotees of the green cloth throughout the country. Never before, though he had tried often, did the In diana expert Tn match or tournament play display form that would make him cause the old masters-to take him seriously, yet he galloped of with the championship emblem with a clean string of six splendid victories.
 Morningstar's next opponent will De Slosson, who has entered a chai- ienge for tfte championship. They will probably meet within 60 days.
 Prior to his unexpected triumph Morningstar, like Harry Cline, who with DemaTest finished among the also rans. was looked upon as a sort of morning glory. That he could knock out runs of two, three and even four hundred almost any time in practice was weI1 known, but he invariably backed up when 1t came to the real test in match and tournament play.
 In the French academies a few years ago Morningstzr, through his brilliant work with the cue, was looked upon as a conner, and when he returned to America to engage in his first big tournament with the old mas,

ters he was believed to have an ex- calIent chance to win, but he failed ut teriy, and, it will be remembered, fin ished last. Slosson won the event, with Sutton, Schaefer and Hoppe all behind him. It was in that tourna- ment that Sutton, who finished sec ond, got his worlds record average of 100. which still stands. In his game with Hoppe the big blonde ran his string of 800 points out in five Innings, scoring two runs of over 200 in the game.
 Later Morningstar contested for the championship and failed to show the real class of an aspiring title holder, but after these years, which have been marked by many futile attempts, he seems to have tt last come into his own. and by dint of sheer determine tion and hours of practice day after day, at last his dreams of being 2 champion have been realized
 Moringstar's high run of IA, his high single average of 21 17-23, or his grand average of IS 24-162, falls short | or the Ol SOLlC OI lAo other winners of championship tourn- | aments, yet his work was meritorious, l and inasmuch as he met and defeated both Slososn, the 1S:1 champion, and Sutton, a previous holder of both ti- ties, henceforth he must take rank with the best players in the world ! Furthermore, Morningstsr Is only 34 years old-young for a billiardist- and 1t is safe to predict that in time he will be greater than he is today. Though Morningstar claims New York as his home, he was born and raised in the little country town oi Rochester, Ind, where he learned tc

KINDNESS TO ANIMALS.
4 Plea for Better Treatment of tie
 Brute Creation.

It Is absolutely inconceivable tl,at man is not ashamed to abuse innocen5 animals as he does-as If all nature belonged to him, and as if he were not e guest, by sufferance, upon the earth, upon which he cannot remain, and of which he cannot say that it belongs to aim and that he can do what he pleases with it And if man really imaglnes that he is the lord of the crcation-which he, nevertheless, has neither designed nor made, and ia which he can neither better nor alter ,anything-surely he has, before az, a tremendous responsibility toward his interiors and must, perhaps. some time give an account of the way in which he has treated these animals. writes Carmen Sylva, in the Century. If eternal retributian Is reality, if we are responsible, what shall We then suffer for the way in which we have treated Gods creatures! No animal Is bad-only hungry; man first teaches him to be vindictive when he has ex- hausted his patience. But how long an animal suffers with~patience before he takes revenge! How long a dog or a cat will let itself be tormented by children, without defending itself, and yet how savagely it can bite and scratch How well it could defend itself if it were not better and mora patient than it's small tormentors! And so it is cowardly for children to torture Saimals. They know thst the animals are good and do what hey please. Shame on themi

 The president will arrive in Phoe- nix shortly before noon, October 15, He will be driven at once to the capitol, where he will make an ad- dress from the portico. It will be the only opportunity for the people Of Phoenix and vicinity to hear the pres ident speak; and it might be added that the president is not fond of speechmaking. that some little urging is usually required to get talk from him, and consequently. the opportuai- ty should be made the most of as it un- undoubtedly will be.
 Immediately after the speech he i will be taken around the valley in au- tomobiles, shown it's orange groves and all points of interest that the Salt River valley can boast of. At some time during this trip the school children, who will be massed at Gen. tral school, will have a chance to see the president. The presidents party, accompanied by the party of Governor Sloan, will drive past the school and greet the children on the steps and in the school yard.

Man and His Dc Q.

He lies in frost of ne curled up be. fore the fire, as so many dogs must have lain before so many fires. I sit on one side of that hearth as so many men must have sat by so many hearths. Somehow this creature has completed my manhood; somehow, cannot explain why, a man ought to have a dog. A man ought to have six legs; those other four legs are part of him. Our alliance is older than any of the passing and priggish expla- nations that are offered of either of as; before evolution was, we were. You can find it written in book that am a mere survival of a squabble of anthropoid apes, and perhaps I am. am sure have no objection. But my dog knows I am man, and you will not find the meaning of that word written in any book as clearly as it is written in his soul.-G. K. Chesterton, In London News.
