MUD LARKS BEST
MARLBORO BETS.
TRACK IS HEAVY
Wise Spectators Should Put
On The Brakes
Today.

MARLBORO, Nd, Nov. 10.-The driz-
zling rain of yesterday has made the
track at Marlboro muddy and sticky,
end there Is no likelihood of a change
In conditions for day or two at least.
The mud dope is the proper thing for
study at present, and only those horses
with known fondness for heavy going
will be considered by the wise ones
The card this afternoon is very open,
and with the track in its present condi-
ton II would seem the part or wisdom
for spectators to put on the brakes.
The first race calls for a bunch of
rather cheap ones. Unless T. B. Spears
has gone to pieces completely he should
win here, with Clifton and Day Bel,
the contenders.
Hibernica looks to have rova,
chance In the second race, with Tippy
and Starboard good place prospects.
For the steeplechase Juverance, with
only 13O, looks good, but he will have
Lampblack and Garterman to beat.
Tom Melton looks in a soft spot In
the fourth race. Henry Munro and Joe
Rose are the dangerous ones.
Mollie 8. may win the fifth race with
lord Wells and Dacia the contenders.
Qus.Ny Sfreot stands ont in the Ia st
race. Warner Grfswell and Ornau.ose
may furnish the contention.
The Marlboro people are arranging IN
make mile track out Of the present
course, and to get II ready for \ first

special train to convey them to the
scene of battle.
Reports from Baltimore indicate that
a record breaking crowd will be on
hand to witness the game. Society will
turn out In full force, and 1t is under
stood that the grandstand will be the
scene of a pink tea during the inter-
missions, during which time the society
girls of Baltimore will act as hostesses.
The Baltimore branch of the Virginia
Almuni Association will attend the
game in a body and Ii is understood
that many alumni from Washington
and other nearby points will go over
to Baltimore In order to get q line on
the team.

BOY WAS SHOT
Accident Results Seriously fol
Webster Lad,

Webster, N. D., May 12.-The Sec
ond shooting among boys resulting in
hospital case from monkeying with
supposedly empty firearm happened
yesterday, when Alexander Anderson,
the 17-year-old son of Ed. Anderson,
was shot below the ankle from a re-
volver he and John Daisch, aged IA,
were cleaning.
Daisch was swapping the hammer
of the weapon which he deemed was
unloaded. It wasn't and the bullet
hit Anderson in the leg, winding in
its course clear around the bone.
Anderson is in the city hospital
and will be all right shortly unless
blood poison should threaten. A boy
was shot while playing soldier last
week with rifle. 1t is probable that
campaign of disarmament of small
boys will be on here soon.

Pleased With Affair

Fargo, N. D., May 12.-W. l.. Stock
we'll has returned home from Ellen
dale where he delivered one of the
the cornerstone of the new Dickey
county court house Tuesday after
noon.
Mr.. Stockwell said despite the in
clemency of the weather and the great
rain storm, the services were largely
attended and that great number of
people marched through the streets in
the procession to the court house
The services at the court house last
ed about twenty minutes, after which
all repaired to the opera house for
the rendering of the exercises.
The handsome new structure, which
will cost about 100000 when COM
pleted. is to be one Of the finest court
houses in the state of North Dakota.
1t will be absolutely fire proof and
built of brick and stone.
The services were conducted under
the direction of Grand Master John
j. Hull of Wahpeton of the order of
Masons, with the members Of the FL
lendale lodge filling in the other
grand offices of the order. Past Grand
Master George H. Reyes acted as the
deputy grand master.
The full Masonic ceremonial was
given in the presentation of the tools,
comprising the square, plum and
level. The four elements were poured
over the stone and the box deposited
therein, consisting of the corn, rep
resenting nourishment, wine repre-
senting refreshment and the oil rep
resenting joy.
The box deposited in the corner
stone contained the complete written
history Of Dickey county and the his
tory Of all the towns and hamlets,
copies Of all the newspapers and a
list of all the county officers from the
time of the organization of the county.

Movement Small

New York, May ia flrmer tone
market, and prive movements, though
small, were In the main upward.
Trading was Of the same listless
character as on the previous days of
the week, but operators who had been
persistently bearish reversed their
position today and supported the mar
ket. The demand, which was chiefly
for the requirements of professional
traders, was most pronounced in
United States Steel, Reading, Union
Pacific, Lehigh Valley and Erie.
United States Steel seemed to be
the sustaining force of the list. The
|oretically It's position was vulnerable,
on account Of the unfavorable show
ing made by yesterdays report of un-
filled orders and the continued poor
character Of trade advices. The man
ner In which the stock resisted attack
acted as stimulus for the rest Of
the market. The United States Steel
corporation it was estimated is oper-
ating about sixty-one per cent of its
blast furnaces capacity, a decrease
of eleven per cent from the high level
OF the year, reached late in March.
The movement of iron ore has fallen
off in consequence, despite the recent
reduction in prices. April shipments
of Lake Superior iron ore from the
Upper Lakes docks were little more
than one-fifth Of the amount forward
ed in April of last year. The copper
metal market was somewhat easier
today, prices here rejecting the weak
ness in the London metal market.
Sales Of several million pounds to
domestic consumers are reported.
Trading in the bond market was
somewhat easier today, and the con-
tinued good demand in that depart
ment exerted favorable effect upon
speculative sentiment. a
Reports Of the gross earnings of
thirty railroads for April show that
the roads were still falling behind

ing $4S,940,000 as compared with $49,-
