Prescott. Ariz.. Aug 3.-EealiZing

old home in Baltimore Cans is in

Divide Entry List.

Cleveland, Aug. 3.-Owing to the
large entries for the Tavern stake the
new Grand circuit event for 2:l0
class trotters. which will be run for
the first time at the North Randall
meet here next week, it was decided
today to divide the race into two
divisions.
There are forty paid up entries in
the race and instead of the guaran-
teed purse of $4,000, the event will
be worth close to $4,000. The first
division will be raced on Wednesday
and the second on Thursday, under
the best three-in-fiye system.

1t will be a matter of interest to
know that Olathe has the honor of
shipping the first car of spuds from
the western slope this year. The
car which establishes new record
for Olathe was shipped by S. w.
Berry of Ash mesa on July IA, the
car going to Glenwood Springs As
a general thing Grand Junction and
Fruita have taken the lead in early
shipments, but this year Olathe leads
all competitors. And not only did
Olathe ship the first car, but her total
crop will doubtless be greater than
that of any other point on the slope.
Last year Carbondale was our only
rival in spud shipping but unless the
crop at that point is far in excess of
last years the home of Eugene Grubb
is sure to fall by othe wayside in the
spud raising contest
OF course Simon Guggenheim is a
candidate for rejection. What else
could be the meaning of all these

Why His Watch Stopped.

A downtown business man who
came back from Europe a month
ago brought with him an eight day
Geneva watch of which he is proud.
AS it cost him an even $500 he has
been extremely careful of it, and
his friends have had little opportu-
nifty to get a close look at it. Several
days ago one of his friends asked
him the time. When the watch was
removed from it's chamois cover the
proud owner found that it had
stopped. In three minutes he was
at the repair window of a Maiden
lane jewelry store.

you can," said the business man.
"Lot of business to attend TOP

The Other Half.

A man owes 4 cents. He pays 2
cents one day, cent the next, one
half cent the next, and SO on, one
half each day of the debt. Now, al
though on the fourth day he only
owes one-quarter of cent, if he
should be endued with the gift of
Immortality and he should continue
to pay the debt at the same ratio,
he could never pay all of it. There
would always remain that half of
the former days payment, provided
he had counters small enough to
make the payments.

Historical "BuIls."

Grave historical writer's are occa-
sionally guilty of what are called
'eHibernicisms." The following pas
sage occurs in a popular history OF
France:
cit is extremely doubtful wheth-
er this prince, Merovaeus, ever ex-
listed at all, but he had a son, Chill
deric, whose existence is well au-
thenticated."
The following is also from his
torical work:
sIike Samson of old, who, armed
only with the jawbone of an ass,
put / 100 Philistines to tie sword.
The Example of Pasanini.
A story is told of how Paganini
once came into the concert room,
took the violin and touched the
strings. First one string broke, and
a smile went around the room; then
another string broke, and there was
more audible expression of mock
cry. When a third string broke
many people laughed outright at his
discontinue. But .Paganini stood
forth with his violin as though
nothing had happened and played
on the one string, and the people
ceased to smile, but listened spell
bound. Some Of those who had de-
rided him began to weep, and some
even prayed. Many a man had fall
en- helpless by the wayside when
some great catastrophe turned the
current of his life aside. The brave
man pushes forward with one re.
naming talent and plucks victory
from defeat.
