M0T0RCYCLIST LAUGHS AT
DEATH--DlES ON TRACK
''If I'm Killed, Wire My Wife," Is
Last lest

DENVER, July 3.-'If I'm killed,
wire my wife in Fresno" laughed w.
w. Thorpe, a motorcycle racer when
cautioned against reckless riding at a
local amusement park today. Within
five minutes he was dead.
Thorpe, who rode under the name of
Ben Brazie, was warming up before
race when he took the chance which
proved fatal Running sixty miles an
hour. he attempted to pass between
w. p. Miller, an amateur rider, and
the track fence. His wheels seemed
barely to touch Miller's, but slid sud
denly from under him and he struck
the track spinning like top. He skid
ded twenty feet along the ground,
struck a fence post, and was picked up
with his neck broken and his jaw frac-
tured. He died before aid reached him.

NlCARAGUAN lMBR0GLI0
STRONG REMINDER OF CUBA

WASHINGTON, July 3.-Indications
are wanting of change of policy on
the part of this government toward the
Nicaraguan imbroglic, though in just
what direction the state department
will turn it is impossible to say. The
situation begins to approximate that in
cuba in the days preceding the war
between Spain and America, when
President Mckinley described it as a
nuisance at our doors.
A line seems to be drawn north and
south in Nicaragua which neither side,
Madriz nor Etrada, can cross; fighting
is going on continuously, the country
is being ruined financially and the con-
siderable foreign business Is seriously
affected. Moreover, neighboring states
in Central America are distressed. So
II Is not improbable that there will be
a concerted movement on the part of
other interested governments to get
the two factions in Nicaragua to sub
NIT their causes to arbitration.

NEW YORK, July 3.-Business in
pig iron last week was light. June con-

than last week, but for June rail con-

Democratic Candidate Gets Stacks Of
Letters From Republicans, Pledg-

The congressional campaign In this
district will be opening up In a lively
manner within the next few days.
Both Congressman DENLY and Frank
K. Doremus, the Democratic candi-
date, are primed for the fray and are
preparing to hurl broadsides at each
other.
Denby's friends are showing brave
front. In the DENLY club headquar-
tiers In the McGraw building, very en-
couraging reports are handed out over
the counter. A first voters club. II Is
announced, has been organized to
work for DENLY exclusively, and al
ready 287 members are enrolled. All
the members of the Detroit baseball
team who make their headquarters In
Detroit have joined the DENLY club,
1t Is said, and will do what they can
for him in the campaign.
The celluoid pennants, which have

dence. But withal, Denby's friends
| are making no claims. They realize
that the congressman IL up against
the real thing In this campaign and
view with alarm" the growing SEN
timents for Frank e. Doremus.
Perhaps the DENLY supporters have
learned that many Republicans are
openly supporting Doremus. Every
mail brings him unsolicited pledges
from rock-ribbed G. o. P. adherents.
Here is an extract from a letter
sent by a prominent citizen whose
nome is often In the public prints:

Farm work stock should be raised
on the farm because no country that
buys its work stock ever was or ever
Will be supplied with sufficient farm
work stock to enable it to cultivate
crops economically. There is an
other reason why farm work stock
should be raised on the farm: 1t is
impossible to SO distribute the crops
and work that there will be an equal
amount OF work to do at all times.
II there be no surplus breeding stock
that can be pressed in for light work
In the times Of greatest demand,
there will Of necessity be deficiency
of work stock on these occasions, for
1t Will be too expensive to feed nom
breeding stock six or eight months
in the year for their service during
three or four months of the busy
season.
In concluding this brief state
ment OF some of the reasons
why live stock should be grown on
every farm, we can only mention
again the profitable opportunity
which live stock afford to give en-
ployment to labor, teams and waste
or extra lands in the growing Of feed
for and in caring for the live stock
throughout the year.
