DUTCH WOMEN 70 HAVE
CELEBRATION IN MAY.

Shown at Amsterdam.

When the statesmen and the cap
tains Of industry In Holland were de-
vising ways OF celebrating this year
the one hundredth anniversary of H0l-
lands casting OF the French yoke and
regaining her Independence It occurred
to some OF the other sex that they
ought to have a show In both senses Of
the word.
So there was organized an exhibition
to be held at Amsterdam. 1t was To-
beled MISUNDERSTANDING"
This exhibition. to be open from May
to October. will present comparison
of the Dutch women of century ago
with those OF the present day and por-
tray the progress made. There will
be an old time middle class house. with
its enormous kitchen and all the do
nestle accessories. Elsewhere will be
. presentation OF the accomplishments
oflthe women Of that day In art. mu-
sic, sports and literature, their spe-
cial work among the poor and the sick
and as guardians Of almshouses, Of
phanages and similar institutions.
To give an idea Of the women Of the
working classes in the country as well
as In the towns the home industries
will be displayed. and it will be shown
how women were overworked as seam
stresses and as diamond workers and
how some trudged In a treadmill like
horses.

His lungs were bursting. his head Wa

but he saw the blue tight-stretched
ribbon Just ahead, and continued to
lessen the gap between himself and
skinner until he felt he must reach
out wildly and grasp at the Other

from the blur, and her lips cried to
him. He plunged forward. his out
flung arm tore the ribbon from ita
fastening, and he fell. But Skinner
was behind him.

and strobe forward. only to have his

It,
ION your marks!" came the rasping
voice Of Willie ~ Wally murmured to
Skinner:
Remember, I trust you"
Skinner ground his teeth; the tendons
in his calves stood out rigidly.
Get set!"
Once more the silence Of death
wrapped the beholders, and Willie
raised his arm.
Speed cast one lingering farewell
glance to the skies, and said, devout-
": What . beautiful, beautiful
day!"
Now the starter was shaking In an
ague Of fury.
Listen, you'll" he chartered. shrilly.
I'm goin' to shoot twice this time
once in the air, and the next time at
the nearest foot-runner. Now, get
set!" and the speaker pulled the trig-
ger, whereupon Speed leaped as IL the
bullet had been aimed at him.
Instantly fulllunged roar went up
that rolled away to the foothills, and
the runners sped out Of the pandemon-
ium, their legs twinkling against the
dust-colored prairie. Down to the
turn they raced. Speed was leading.
Fright had acted upon him as an cleo
trio charge; his terror lent him wings:
he was obsessed by propelling force
outside Of himself. Naturally strong,
1.-the. and active, he likewise pos
sessed within him the white-hot flame
of youth. and now, with q nameless
fear to spur him on. he ran as any
healthy. frightened young animal
would run. At the second turn Skin
ner had not passed him. but the thud
Of his feet was close behind.
This unparalleled phenomenon sur.
prised Lawrence Glass perhaps most
Of all. Was this miracle? He
turned to Covington, to find him dane
ing madly. his clutches waving over
his head, in his eyes the stare of q
maniac His mouth was distended,
and Glass reasoned that he must be
shouting violently. but could not be
sure. Suddenly Covington dashed to
the turn whence the runners would
be revealed as they covered the last
half lap. for nothing was distinguish
able through the fence, burdened by
human forms, and Larry numbered aft
or him. ploughing his way through the
crowd and colliding with the box upon
which stood tho Echo Photograph, Of
New York and Paris. He hurled
Mariedetta out Of his path with brutal
disregard, but even before he could
reach his point Of vantage the sprint
ers burst into the homestretch. Larry

Glass saw 1t all at glance-Speed
was weakening. while Skinner was
running easily. Nature had done her
utmost; she could not work the i'm
possible. AS they tore past, Skinner
was ahead.
The air above the corral became
blackened with hats as If q flock Of
vultures had wheeled suddenly: the
shrek of triumph that rose from the
Centipede ranks warned the trainer
that he had tarried too long. Heavily
he set OF across the prairie for New
York.
The memory of that race awakened
Speed from his slumbers many times
in later years. When he found the
brown shoulder of his rival drawing
past he realized that for him the end
Of all things was at hand. And yet,
be it said to his credit. he held dog
gedly to his task, and began to fight
his waning strength with renewed de
termination. Down through the noisy
crowd he pounded at the heels of his
antagonist, then out upon the second
lap. But now his fatigue increased
rapidly. and al it increased, SO did
SINNERS lead. At the second turn
Wally was hopelessly outdistanced,
and began to sob with fury, in an.
ticipation of the last, long, terrible
stretch. Back toward the final turn
they cane. the college man desper.
ately laboring. the cook striding on
like a machine. Wally saw the rows
Of forms standing upon the fence, but
Of the shouting he heard nothing.
Skinner was twenty yards ahead now,
and flung look back over his shout
der. AS he turned into the last
straightaway he looked back again
and grinned triumphantly.
Then. Wallinsford Speed gasped
and calling upon his uttermost atom Of
strength, quickened the strides of his
leaden legs. Skinner had fallen!
A shrek Of exultation came from
the Flying Heart followers: 1t died az
the unfortunate man struggled to his
feet. and was OF again before his op
ponent had overtaken him. Down the
alley Of human forms the two came;
then a. their man drew ahead for an
instant or two. such bedlam broke
