Joseph Bianchi's fast PAGER, Edna
Parker, has made an enviable record |
during the racing season just closing |
for she has taken first money at every
one of the six speed events in which
she started, and naturally, her owner
is highly elated over this very credit
able performance. The first race in
which she was entered and which was
won by this valuable animal, was
staged at Morton, July 3rd. The
second victory was scored here in
New Ulm during the Brown County
Fair, and Jackson, Spirit Lake, Iowa
Worthington and Window are the
scenes of the other sensational win
nings by this Parker lass. During
the present week, Edna is scheduled to
take part in the races at Madison,
MINI. and in the first week OF Octo ber
she will thrill the good people Of Red
wood Falls and vicinity with her
wonderful speed. In view Of past
Mr.. Bianchi is conf.
dent that his horse will cross under
the wire ahead of all of her COMPETE
tors at the two last named race meets
which will credit her with a perfect
score for the season, an accomplish |
ment which but very few of tie

Belgrade, servia, March 1.-THE
Austrian government today took a
step regarded as equivalent to for
bidding Servia to send troops to as
sist the Montenegrins in capturing
the Turkish fortress Of scutari.
The Austrian minister to servia,
Baron Won Ugron Won Abanfalya, in
formed Premier Pasitch that his gov
ernment objected to Servian troops
assisting in the siege of scutari,
which was to become the capital of
Albania. He requested the immediate
recall of any Servian troops which
had been dispatched there.
The Servian premier in reply point
ed out that under treaty arrange
ments servia was compelled to as
sist her allies without regard to the
future of Scutari. The situation is
regarded as extremely delicate. Feet
ing here is ct high pitch over the
attitude taken by Austria.
The fortress of Scutari, near the
Montenegrin frontier, has been ee-
sieged by the Montenegrins without
material success since the beginning
Of the Balkan war The capture and
inclusion in the kingdom of Montene-
gro were the chief reasons for King
Nicholas joining in the hostilities.
When the European powers decided
in principle on an Autonomous Alban-
ia, in which Scutari was to be in
cluded the king of Montenegro de-
clared he would enter the fortress at
the head of his troops, otherwise the
reign Of his family was doomed.
In the meantime the Servian troops,
having completed operations else
where, were sent in large numbers,
including artillery, to assist in the
siege of scutari It was this activ-
ity Of servia which called forth the
