IRENE. A feature of yesterdays racing was
the new track record of 2.l0 established
by Major Mallow. The former record of
30 IA was held Jointly by Asa Wilkes
and Gallagher, this mark being made
twice in the free-for-all event of 1909,
Tuesdays Racing.
There were two real horse races in the
track events of Tuesday and they brought
out number of driving finishes that
pleased the crowd extremely The 2.35
pace, which brought out field of four,
was the easiest kind of cinch for the
mare Orale. which won in straight heats
without being forced to anywhere near
her limit of speed. Johanna Paatehen and
Colonel had good scrap for second
money but the Greenfield mare managed
to land it, Florodora, first seen on the
Valley fair track under the experienced
hand of the late F. l.. Chickering. won the
217 stake pace but she was obliged to
show considerable class to make it
straight heat affair The first mile was
hers without great deal of exertion but
in the second King Regent gave her a
much harder rub while in the third the
Springfield mare was forced to- finish
that proved to be the closest of the after
noon In this heat King Regent came
y
half length to best Florodora, the
latter having been carried the first half
at a 210 clip by Prince Alden. driven by
the veteran Ed. Sunderlin. The 2.24 trot
brought out eight straight steppers, field
that proved unusually difficult to get away.
Bad actions by several of the horses gave
George NJ, long lead in the first heat,
John c., finishing second over Theodore
X, while the rest of the field tralled:
There were still more breaks in the second
mile and Theodore X led at the half but
Queen Arista came very fast on the last
quarter and went under the wire few
feet in front of the previous heat winner.
The Arista mare acted badly at the start
of the third heat and was yards in the
rear when the neld got the word although
she managed to finish third Just behind
George NJ. and William of the same in
tia. The fourth and deciding heat, with
four horses competing. was series OF sur
prises. At the start Queen Arista lost
her stride and fell to the rear and on the
first turn of the second half George NJ,
did the same thing but by good fortune or
something else the leaders at this stage of
the mile failed to maintain their advantage
and the heat was finally taken by George
NJ. with John G., second, William NJ,
third and Queen Arista in the rear. The

Birds-Good Organization.

The value of good organization is forci-
bly, exemplifed in the Valley fair poultry
show. Its machinery is never out of order
and in consequence its executive staff con

Three cottages of five rooms each, all owned by Louis Bluerock, of No. 1911 East Pullen street., and located at Nos. 1S13-15-17 East Pullen street, were destroyed by fire early Sunday morning, together with part of the contents of each building. The homes of MT. Bluerock and George Hill, the latter's at No. 1919, were damaged by the blaze. The fire is said to have originated in the residence at NO. 1915 which. was occupied by Arthur A. Day and family.
 In the Day house a small boy about twelve years old, was rescued by the neighbors who were forced to break in the door. The boys life was in danger when neighbors reached him. The house at No- 1913 was the re- sidence of w. P. Goodman and family and William Tranner and family made their home at No. 1877.
 The alarm of the fire was first turned into the Cotton Belt shops, which s several hundred yards away. Hose was come cted up from the shops and was laid towards the burning buildings. This arrangement was ineffective, however, until the fire department arrived with it's hose. Other adjoining homes were then saved by the use of the fire hose and the Cotton Belt hose.
 The res dents of the burned dwell- ings fled from the houses, which burned quickly under the big head way the fire had gained. They suc- ceeded in saving some of their house hold goods The damage is estimated at about $35OO, which is practically covered by insurance R. H. M. Mills & Sons and the Home Insurance Agency had a greater par. of the in- surance on the bu ldings.
 The rapid destruction of the three houses is accounted for by the fact that they are practically without fire protection This section is out of the city limits therefore the fire depart ment was unable to do any real work.

NEW CITY HALL
 IS A BEAUTY
Mayor Jordan Presents Model Council Chamber as Proof of His Good
 Word.

The good results of Mayor A. C.. Jordan's efforts were much in evil dence at the Council Chamber last night, when the aIdermanic body met ill their newly furnished quarters for the first time. When Mayor Jordan took office he declared in his inau- guration speech that one of his first acts would be to give the city off, cials decent quarters. As in every- thing else he has kept his word. The City Hall is no longer an eyesore. It Is one of the most attractive buildings, on it's interior, in the city and Pine Bluffians may now take visitors there without hesitation.
 The Council Chamber itself is a beauty. All of the furniture has been revarnished, the walls repapered and painted and the chandeliers end other lights beaut;fied. The floor is cover ed with noiseless cork carpet and no longer will the City Dads swelter from the summer heat, for three large ceiling fans dispense "Coney Island breeze' literally It is change that was badly needed and like the spotless streets we now have Mayor Jordan is due the thanks of long suffering public.
 The improvements are conspicuous

Honest Medicines Versus Fakes.

President Taft's recent message suggesting an amendment to the Pure Food and Drugs law in it's relation to Prepared Medicines, does not refer to such standard medicines as Foley's Honey and Tar Compound and Foley Kidney Pills, both of which are true medicines carefully compounded of ingredients whose medicinal qualities are recognized by the remedial agents for the diseases they are intended to >counteract. For over three decades >'Foley's Honey and Tar Compound
 has been a standard remedy for
 coughs, colds and affections of the throat, chest and lungs for children and for grown persons, and it retains today it's pre-eminence above all
 other preparations of it's kind. Foley
 Kidney Pill are equally effective and
 meritor;ous. w. L. Dewoody & Go.
