CIRCUIT TRACK
HAS FIVE BIG EVENTS
Special to The Telegraph

Kalamazoo, Mich. Aug. 15.-Five
races, with an aggregate of forty-four
horses, furnished a heavy card for the
fourth day of the local Grand Cir
cult meeting.
Two of the contests, the $4,000
Burdick Hoael stake for 2.10 PAGERS
and the 2.l2 pace, went five and six
heats respectively, and were grueling
struggles. The 2.16 trot, purse
$4,000. and the 2.1O trot, were won
in straight heats.
Interest centered in the 2.1O pace.
The field numbered eleven horses, in
cluding Peter Stevens and King
Couchman, who We're figured as the
most dangerous contenders. King
Couchman won the first heat, the
second going to Peter Stevens. Then
Carmelia took a heat. Peter Stevens
had the class of the bunch and cap
tured the fourth and fifth heats and
the race.
The time, 2.O5A, 2.O5A, 2.O64,
2.061a and 2.07 y. was disappointing,
faster miles being expected. The
track was a bit slow as a result of
Thursdays heavy rain.

Awful slaughter at Island Park.

Notwithstanding the censorship on
the makeup of two patrolmen teams
yesterday. Harrisburg coppers should
have all the credit possible for VIM
ming the second game from Mayor
Walkers Altoona champs. The dis
patches say 1t was a sorrowful crowd
at the Altoona police station last night
when they read the war bulletins ana
realized that no longer does the Noun
tain City have the champion police
team of PENNSYLVANIA.
In reckoning with Amos Draben-
stadt, leader of the Harrisburg cop
pers. it should not be forgotten that
Amos was once a baseball player. He
knows just how to pick a team. With
Taylor, Murphy, "Baldy" and "Jawn"
Hess. the new England League twirler,
now traffic copy, playing for Har-
risburg, the Altoona team must come
stronger if they want to win.
Yesterdays game was full of inter-
est. OF the $500 tickets sold 5000
were turned in at the gate. Harry
White and Johnny Murnane, the de-
tectives, also received large contri-
buttons at the grandstand. This means
that the Mayors quick charity fund
will be swelled and there will now be
some cash for winter coal for poor
folks.
Hits sSig Factor
Hits wers - Factor in the victory
of the Harrisburg patrolmen. Pitcher
Hess also figured, having ten strike
outs to his credit. Stohr started the
twirling for the Altoona bunch. He
had poor support and near the close
of the game was all in, having been
pounded all over the lot. Bennett who
took his place. showed better form
but he had little time to do any good
work. 1t was the Hess "fadeaway"
that did the trick. The lonely run for
Altoona in the sixth came on Holmes
burg's double and Stehrs single.
After the game the visitors were
given an auto trip over the city and at
: o'clock a banquet was he'd. The
Altoona party left for hoGsc at mid.
night, heartsick over their defeat bur
full of praise for their entertainment.

next week. Booster day will be con-
tinued on Monday, when there will be
two games with Wilmington. Jimmy
Jackson's bunch always gives the

Will be needed with their costing.
The first game starts at o'clock.
There is a probability that O'Neill will
be sent in for the first game. Harris
burg patrons have not seen this boy
start a game and it promises unusual
interest if the young southpaw gets
chance to pluck the Chicks.
Prizes contributed to the Harrisburg
Sporting Writers Association will be
awarded winners for special work DUR
ing the game. The Chicks will have a
chance to pull down some nice mer-
chandise. on Thursday Lancaster is
due here for a game and the latter

SNOW REALLY A BLESSING
Denver Newspaper Rejoices at the Re-

Throughout the State.

It has been said before. Let 1t be
said again. The snow that you swept
from your walks, that sifted down
your collars. that got into your hair,
your eyes, your tempers, is worth a
million dollars to the agriculturists of
Colorado. To the dry farmer who
plows it into his soil it will bring re.
wards in a next years bank account.
Lying in the mountains 1t will flow
down the bitches to the irrigationists
next season. On ranch, in orchard
and truck garden It means moisture
and money. To the city 1t means
health that always comes from sea
sonable weather Wade through II
with a smile on your lips. shovel II
with song In your heart, roll 1t into

temporary Inconvenience and future
prosperity-and a white Christmas for
the public tree that brought all Den
ver-all Colorado-into that new, bet
ter, greater, get-together bond OF
friendship and work.-Denver Times.

$4,000 Names Needed on Petition.

III the members of the state grange
can secure the signatures of $4,000
voters to their petition the next legis
lature will be asked to pass law
placing a tax of one-half cent a pound
on the output of the copper mines OF
Michigan.
The legislative committee of the
grange In session here also decided to
secure the passage of law placing a
tonnage tax on iron, based on a rate
OF two and one-half per cent. of mined
value Of ton of iron ore.
These bills will be drawn up at
once and copies will be attached to
each petition as required by law.
After the required number of sigma
lures have been secured, they will be
filed with the secretary OF state and
the next legislature will either have to
pass the bills just as drawn up or kill
them. In the latter event the bills
Will be submitted to a direct vote OF
the people. During the session Of
1911 a tonnage tax bill passed the
house but was killed in the senate. It
is expected that the battle in the leg
islature next year over the tonnage tax
will be exceedingly bitter.
1t was also decided at the meeting
of the legislative committee of the
grange to prepare bill to be submit
ted in the same manner for the Tor
rens system of land transfers. This
will also go to the legislature provid-
ing the required number OF signatures
are obtained.
An amendment providing for the
recall of judges will be submitted to
the people at the general election next

SKIN CLEARED.
BY Simple Change In Food.

It has been said by physician that
most diseases are the result of indi-
gestion.
There's undoubtedly much truth in
the statement, even to the cause OF
many unsightly eruptions, which many
suppose can be removed by applying
some remedy on the outside.
BY changing her food Kan. girl
was relieved of an eczema which was
a great annoyance to her. She writes:
For five months l was suffering
with an eruption on my face and
hands which our doctor called eczema
and which caused me great deal Of
inconvenience. The suffering was al
most unbearable.
The medicine took only gave me
temporary relief. One day / happened
to read somewhere that eczema was
caused by indigestion. Then l read
that many persons had been relieved
of indigestion by eating Grape-Nuts.
II decided to try It. I liked tho
taste Of the food and was particularly
pleased to notice that my digestion
was improving and that the eruption
was disappearing as II by magic. I
had at last found, in this great food,
something that reached my trouble.

journey across northern Greenland at
its widest point. The expedition, con-
sisting of four men with FIVE Iceland
ponies, intended first to explore Queen
Louise land and then cross central
Greenland. II proved great success,
excellent geographical results being
obtained. In particular vast unex'
plored mountain districts were sur
veyed, while much important material
for meteorological and Chronological
research was collected. Some admir-
able photographs of the northern
lights and similar polar phenomena
were taken. Doctor Nansen was among
the audience, and afterwards In
