DEBORAH HAS FAST HORSES.
Several Speedy Racers Developed
Here Which Have Had Unusual
Success 1nis Season.

During the past month the racing
horses owned in DEBORAH have been
showing their mettle in fine shape,
nearly all of them winning repeated
ly. The season has practically
closed, although Mr.. Hovden's mare
will start in one or two races in
Wisconsin this week.
Louie r." a fine mare owned by
E. j. Curtin and G. F. Baker, takes
the lead with a record during Sep
TENDER of winning nrst money in
seven races and losing one. She
started first at Strawberry Point
Sept. 7th, where she won three
straight heats, also at West Union.
In DEBORAH she won two races, TAX
ing the first in three straight heats.
At Mankato, Mimi. she did the same,
and at Austin took first money in
four heats. At La Crosse, on a very
muddy track she finished in 4th, Sd,
9Th and 4th places, respectively. At
Rochester, she won the race. She
received a mark of 2.24A at the
last place, and horsemen are a unit
in believing that next year she will
receive a mark as low as 2:15 She
certainly is a very promising marc.
"Tinka," 2:19A, bay mare
owned by E. X. Hovden, won two
$500 races at La Crosse, being the
only ones in which she has started
sin, where she will start in two or
three other races. She also is a
very promising animal
Princess Aldea," 2:261s, roam
mare owned by Chris Christensen
won Sd money in a $500 race at
La Crosse, and also first money in a
race at st. Paul.
Burt" 2:10, owned by F. w.
Boyd and VIM. Roman, one of the
best horses ever owned in DEBORAH
has started four times this season
and won first in three of the races
at Eldora, Marshalltown and La
Porte City, taking fourth money in
the other at Sioux City.
The above goes to show that the
good old racing" days when De
corah horses were known far anC

1.-THE Girl in the Taxi"

The Emperor of Germany is said
to have visited the theatre where
The Girl in the Taxi" under the
name of Like Father Like Som
was playing when the piece was
produced in Berlin last season.
Anthony Mars, the author, is known
as the Emperor's favorite play
wright and has been decorated for
his many successes which have set
all Europe laughing with delight.
THE Girl in the Taxi is acknowl-
edged as Mars best work, and con-
tains more side-splitting complica-
tions than half a dozen of his other
efforts combined.
The Girl in the Taxi will be
seen at the Grand for an engage
ment of one night, Friday, Oct 21st.

DRUG HABIT Is SPREADING
Vice on Increase In EngIand-lnsre-

English society Is becoming serious
ly exercised about the habit of taking
drugs, which appears to be spreading
more rapidly than ever, Judging from
some of the correspondence which is
appearing on the subject. What was
at n time the vice OF the few IS de-

many-worried business men, profess

always she returned. As in every
other case, the gradual sapping away
of the will power weakened her eff

end her friends had to take the most
drastic measures to force her into an
inebriates' home. Here the habit was
successfully broken after an agoniz-
