all stand in with the play. I suppose he's told Mr. Hopkins that he can put man in the box to look out for his interests?"
 Yes, he said 1 could do that" as sented the young mining man.
 Let's look over that race he said he could fix fo1 tomorrow, was the sud den suggestion of Tony as he produced a paper in which was list of the en- tries for the next days races. "Oh. I've got the old badger" was the sud den, gleeful outDurst He was risht abont there being just two horses n the race with chance to win. Go OF and put in the g. 900 with him and I'll attend to the rest when I see you at the track tomorrow Just put a wise one in the box 10 see that no one runs away with the bank roll. and after that race we'll have old Camp ready to take the high dive from the top of the ferry boat"
 What is it you're going to do2" was the suspicious inquiry of Hopkins.
 Never mind what I'm going to eo: the Big Doctor will stand for wha. !. say, won't you, Doc? 2"
 Yes. I don't know what it is. bet if you are sure you can put it through I'll take all, or half, of Hopkins enG of the 5000. I'll give Hopkins $2.E23 i'll the morning for a half of his inter est and he needn't let Camp know there is any one else in on the GeaI Jack Cleland can be the man in tre box as lookout"
 When Floyd arrived at the race track on the day following his a.E with Hopkins and Tony he saw a new bookmaker's stand in the line ndrr the shed Of the betting ring. in thi= stand was seated Jack Cleland, who was supposed to be thefe as an as- sistant to the cashier but no glance of recognition passed between the two. Floyd and Hopkins also l.e.l

his prediction. the new partnership book had put up to l on Applejack while the other books were laying a shade less than that price. A moment afterwards he noticed that the part nership bookmaker rubbed out the price against Applejack, announcing that he had all he wanted of it. Floyd knew by this sign that Camp had bet enough of his own money to win out the money that was in the book. Walk ing quietly through the ring, ne stopped long enough before a number of books to make several good-sized wagers on Lemon Squeezer. He al- ready had given Tony S1 900 to wager on the same horse.
 Thomas Camp, besides getting all the money to be had in his own book. also had wagered hundreds on Apple jack in other books about the ring, and was surprised 10 note when he re turned from the paddock, where he had just saddled his horse and given final :nstructions to the jockey, that the .irice against Lemon SQueeZer, his own horse, had not gone up in the betting. He was unaware that a large amount Of money bet by Floyd had forced the price down. lie had no time to inves- iigate. however, as the horses already were at the rest, and he hurried to q point of vantage from which he could view the race.

apart during the afternoon, having agreed to meet in a secluded spot on the grounds just before the race in which Camp had announced that trick was to be turned.
 Are you sure of that tout?" was the anxious inquiry Of Hopkins when he and Floyd finally met in consultation.
 Yes, he'd lose both legs sooner than throw me down, was the reply. Now, what does Camp say?'
 He says he has instructed the hook to take in all the bets they can get on Applejaek. He has arranged with the owner of that one to lose and he will win with his own horse, Lemon Squeezer, He explains that it might be suspicious to the judges if he didn't win this race.
 That means, explained Floyd, that he intends that Applejacll is 10 win and his horse will be beaten out. How much money have you got in your pocket?"
 oh. about $500"
 Ne4i, go III the ilnS and make fYe S100 bets on Lemon Squeezer, but don't bet it in our book. Camp has given instructions to his Bookmakers to give a shade the best price on the other fellows horse. He will have commissioners there to get his own money down quick and bet enough to win out the bank roll on that one race That's the way hes got it fixed to win our $5.o00'
 The two separated and entered the betting ring from different ends of that inclosure. Floyd noticed that true to

New Idea for Lonc Life.

4 novel method of attaining longevi- ty was practiced by Mrs. Yetta .Schul- man, who died recently in New York at the advanced age of 105 years. Mrs. Schulman paid no particular attention to points of diet, exercise, sleep. etc, which usually figure largely in rules laid down for those growing old. She believed that the lives of aged per sons could be prolonged if they asso- ciated constantly or nearly so with young people, and she apparently veri- fled her theory, for she spent the greater part of her time in company with children, even taking part in their sports with lively interest," Leslies Weekly

front, while next in order and close behind came Lemon SQueezer, both horses running easily Before they had gone a quarter of the distance it could be seen that the race was be tween the first two horses, and the others were strung out in single file In the stretch came Applejack, run ming without effort, with Lemon Squeezer within safe call A smile of cOntentment rested upon the face of Tom Camp, down at the end of the grandstand, while Floyd's counten- ance wore a worried look and young Hopkins was shivering in the excite ment of lost hope.
 There, and 1 listened to you and your tout" he said to Floyd as he saw Applejack winning easily.
 Why, it's nothing more than pro cession," muttered Floyd. And would have staked my right eye on Tony, Why, that boy on Applejack is racing him to death to win and the other fellow don't seem to be trying.
 ''Applejack wins," shouted the crowd as the blue and white stripes passed under the wire a good length in front of Lemon Squeezer.
 That's one time that I'm the goat, muttered Doc Floyd to Hopkins I'm sorry ! steered you wrong, and will get you even. Although l guess I'm in a few thousand deeper than you are, know 1 gave you the wrong steer and am sorrier for that than losing my own money. We are whipsawed for fair.

4 Museum of Art Horrors.

Berlin.-The directors of the Mu-
scum of Industrial Art at Stuttgart
have had the happy thought of an
exhibition Of gross errors in artis-
tic taste (Geschmacksverirru .
Instead of teaching by examples Of
what to initiate, the idea is to show
the public and art students what to
avoid. With German thoroughness
a catalogue of this display Of artistic
alterations has been drawn up by
Professor Pagaurek, who classifies
the objects shown as coming undel
the heads of wrong uses of material,
fantastic treatment, freaks in decora
tion, and so forth. AS the show is
one Of Industrial art, 1t contains onlS
monstrosities produced by unregulat-
ed Germany fancy, working in that
sphere. Knock-kneed tables and all
kinds Of msapplled taste in furni-
ture, china, and ornaments, with wild
extravagances in decoration, are dis
played as horrible warnings. The
whole is a kind of Dantean circle,
about which the student and the ap-
prentice are led in order to frighten
them into the paths Of artistic right
eousness.

HOME CURE FOR ECZEMA.
Oil Of Wlntcrlreen. ThymoI, Glycer-
inc, Etc, Used as a Simple Wash.

1t really seems strange that so many
people suffer year in and year out
with eczema, when it is now no long
er a secret that OIL Of wintergreen
mixed with thymol, glycerine, etc,
makes wash that Is bound to cure.
Old, obstinate cases, it is true, can.
not be cured in a few days, but there
is absolutely no sufferer from ecze-
ma who ever used this simple wash
and did not find Immediately that
wonderfully soothing, calm, cool SEN
sation tha comes when the itch is ta-
ken away. Instantly upon applying
a few drops Of the wash the remedy
takes effect, the itch is allayed
There is no need Of experiment-the
patient knows az once.
Instead Of trying TO compound the
oil OF wintergreen, thymol, glycerine,
etc. in the right proportions ourselves
we are using a prescription which is
universally found the most effective.
It is known as the D. D. D. Prescrip-
ton, or OF Of Wintergreen Com
pomd. It is made by the D. d. d.
Co. Of Chicago, and our long expert
ence with this remedy has given US

PARTY MUST ADHERE
TO ROOSEVELT IDEAS

Misunderstanding a speech on
the income tax in the senate, Senator
Borah referred to former President
Roosevelt as having shaped the des-
tinies Of the republican party and
said that without his leadership "his
party would have gone out Of busi-
ness" He added that without con-
tinued adherence to these principles
the party will go out of power"
mo man." he went on, "is politi-
cally so shortslghted or politically so
blind as the man who thinks the
steamer Hamburg carried away the
policies and principles, the public in
terest. the aroused public conscience
and the searching public concern
which this remarkable man bequeath-
ed to his countrymen"
This statement was in connection
with a discussion of Mr. Roosevelt's
suggestion favor'ng a graduated in
heritance and graduated income tax.
Mr.. Borah also quoted Mr.. Tafts
speech in whic he speaks in favor of
the income tax.
Does the senator believe" Mr..
Sutherland asked, that president
Taft believed in the constitutionality
of the income LAWN other words,
that he believed that the law pro-
nounced unconstitutional by the su-
preme court was in fact constitution
al?"

American people when he was can
didate," responded Mr.. Borah, that
he favored an income tax which
could be drawn to be made constitu-
tional l am not willing to believe
that the president believed in draw
ing an income tax law applicable to
men toiling in professions and then
IN exempting the vast accumulated
wealth Of this nation from taxation"
Referring to Mr.. Carnegie's state
ment that an income tax would en-
courage perjury. Mr.. Borah said:
"Mr. Carnegie did not make the
republican party, and wish was just
as sure that the republican party did
not make Mr.. Carnegie"

University of Oregon, Eugene, Ore
gon, May 5.-Trainer Hayward, of the
university track team, is very retic-
ent about Oregon's chances for win
ming the northwest championship on
the cinder path this year, but admits
that he has a very good nucleus Of old
men, together with some real finds"
among his freshman material.
In the sprints, Oregon has Captain
Huston, Harry Moon and Bristow, all
of whom can do so yards in 2-5 Sec
onds.
In the hurdles and high jumps,
Hawkins has shown up splendidly,
walking off with a medal intended
for Forrest Smithson in the Multno-
nah meet three weeks ago. and week
before last winning the broad jump
with 21 feet four inches at Columbia
university. In the 440 yard run, Hay

ward has developed four men as the
relays this year will be the full mile.
Oregon figures on Lowell and Reid,
seniors, McDaniels. and Johns,
the Pendleton freshman. McDaniels
comes from Portland Academy and
has developed into a strong 44O man.
Johns won the quarter at Columbia
University two weeks ago in 54 1-5
seconds, which is quite fast, consider
ing that the track is twelve laps t.
the mile.
In the distances, Riddell and Davis
are expected to make good, as they
both won firsts in the two meets al
ready held at Multnomah and Colum-
bia.
In the weights, Hayward has Nc
Intre, Neill, Henderson, Kellogg and
means. Kellogg and L. Means are
both freshmen and old time rivals,
Kellogg hailing from Baker and
Means graduated from Pendleton high
school last year. Means, in a tryout
recently, hurled the discus over 119
feet, almost tying the college record.
He had no trouble placing in the last
meet at Columbia University in the
shot put, and will make good in both
these events.
The pole vault is well taken care
of by Williams, who has gone II feet
three inches, and the high jump by
Newman, a freshman, from Salem,
who clears the bar at feet Z inches.
The training table was started this
week and both Means and Johns were
among the first eight put on.

AN HONEST MAN SAVED
BY A PHILANTHROPIST

Mr.. T. A: Morgan, of Hammond, Ind.
had suffered for years with his stom-
ach and kidneys, and while tho great
Root Juice scientist was proving the
merits of the Root Juice remedy to the
people of northern Indiana, Mr.. Nor
gan purchased six bottles of the Juice
and while it was being wrapped up, he
said: III Root Juice cures me I will
make the scientist a present of one
hundred dollars" A short while ago
Mr.. Morgan called on the scientist and
said that he could eat anything with
out the slightest Inconvenience and
that his kidney trouble was entirely
cured. He wanted the scientist to take
the one hundred dollars, but it was re-
fused. However, it was agreed to give
the money to an orphan asylum. So
Root Juice is not only curing the sick,
but in this instance will be the indi-
rect means of caring for some dead
mothers child. Root Juice has proved
it's wonderful merits to many people of
this point From the very start it
seems to soothe and heal the Innings Of
the stomach and bowels and strength
en- the liver and kidneys, thereby CIV
ing nature a chance to, in her own
way, throw off the impurities Of the
hood. 1t is a wonderful medicine,
sold for 500 bottle or three for
$3.50, at A. G. Luken & Co.'S drug
