Los Angeles, Cal, Aug. Mystery
surrounding the Vernon Jockey club,
recently incorporated at Sacramento, is
dispelled today by the announcement
that Il. j. McCarey, boxing promoter, is
the president of the new organization.
According to McCarey, the club will
foster horseracing upon an unique basis,
the club owning the horses to be raced
and employing the jockeys. No form
of betting, he said, will be counten-
anced. The new organization has under
lease, according to McCarey, tract of
land at Vernon upon which mile track
win be constructed. The promoters
plan is complete to the establishment
for an opening January l, 1915.
"We have half a million to invest, !"
McCarey explained, "and I am salts
fled that racing, without betting, is
possibility. People will pay to see
racing and upon the gate receipts we
expect to make our profit"

game has ever known, said the recent
2l-inning game in Pittsburg between
the New York Giants and Pittsburg
Pirates was the most magnificent ex-
hibition Of baseball that ne ever saw.
Larry Doyle's home run won the game
for the Giants.
"It was great" said Mathewson,
"becmse the game had all the differ
ent elements of baseball and was not
one of those dull affairs where no one
was able to hit. There was everything
that goes to make game exciting, and

of the plot was brought out and the doge was called before the council.
 First two of the ringleaders were hung upon the red pillars of the bal cony of the palace, from which the doge was wont to look at the bull hunt. The following day nine more were condemned and were hanged on suc- cessive days. Finally on Friday the 18th day of April. the council of ten tried and passed upon the doge him self and directed that his head should be cut off and that the execution should be done on the landing place of the stone staircase, where the doges take their oath when they first enter the palace.
 The doge was executed on the fol- lowing day about the hour of noon, and the cap of state was taken from his head before he came downstairs. When the execution was over it is said that one of the council of ten went to the columns of the palace over against the place of St Mark and that he showed the bloody sword unto the people, crying out with a loud voice, '+The terrible doom hath fallen upon the traitor" and the doors were opened and the people all rushed In to see the corpse of their beheaded doge.

RAISING APPLES.

Tn the west more particularly than in this section of the country is apple raising looked upon as a big business, but there are many instances even in this state where the production of, this fruit results in a most profitable bus mess, and it Is not confined solely to the farmers. In this connection 1t is an interesting statement which is made by Prof. HedFick of the New York Agricultural station when he de- clares as a result of ten years actual experience, apple raising can be made to pay Is 3-4 per cent. Such is 8 profit which cannot fail to appeal to a good many business men whether they are located in the country or the city.
 Like all other pursuits in connection with the development of the land great strides have been made in apple cul- ture as well as in farming. It has been demonstrated that the old orchards can be made to come back and result in handsome output and profit to the owner. It all requires attention, however. following a study as to the needs of the orchards and the application of the right treatment. Such results cannot be gained through neglect and there must be a disposi- ton to eliminate what so frequently goes as waste through the develop ment of better marketing conditions.
 There is no reason why the orchard with the proper care should not prove a valuable money making department of every farmers business. Apples can be grown in New England as well as else and there Is no reason why the orchards of Connecticut should not be taking care of the apple trade in this commonwealth and be- yOrd

FLAG DAY.

There Is good reason for the in- stitution of Flag day and the observ- ance of 1t upon it's anniversary. There are incidents which occur every year which show that there cannot be too much honor and respect for the Stars and Stripes. the glorious symbol of our nationality, and such is to be maintained and stimulated through keeping the emblem and its lesson constantly before the country. Atten- tion to the flag and the country for which 1t stands should by no means be confined to one day, but it is only proper that one day should be set aside for the great significance which attaches thereto.
 The anniversary this year falls upon Sunday and the observance will of necessity be distributed over several days. It serves as the time for much valuable instruction on what the flag Is, what 1t has stood for in the past and what it means to the future. There is no danger that too much will be known about the sacrifices which were made for its possession and later it's preservation when it's entirety was threatened and the dark stains upon its folds had to be expunged by heroic methods. It is the great inspiration to patriotism and when every child has learned the lesson of love and rev. erence for the flag our future will be assured.
 Flag day provides duty for the old as well as the young. The les sons of the day should not be over looked and from every housetop should be flying the Stars and Stripes in all their glory. The flag means just as much today and tomorrow as 1t ever did and never should it mean less

standing has dawned-that is, when accountability or responsibility should be exacted. The world is prone to talk about what a child doesn't know, instead of being governed by what it does know until it is on the verg of its teens. If there is gross carelessness in family conduct it is when children are little and the bad impressions then made are difficult to eradicate. It is not a very precocious child that can memorize, recite, initiate, dance or sing at six years of age, and how much older does child have to be to in terpret the leer, the wink or the signs which tend to demoralize 1t or mar it's moral tone? The child Is not seriously token in hand young enough, and why are we amazed by what children pick up-they get most of it at home.

FAMOUS TRIALS
TRIAL OF MARiNo FALIERo.

Lord Byron has been the means oi keeping familiar to the world the name of Marine Faliero. the doge of Venice. through his exquisite dramatic setting of the historic tragedy. Marine was elected doge on the 11th of September 1854. At the time he was a wealthy man and a knight. As the doge he proved to be most interruptions and wicked. He was likewise exceedingly ambitious.
 Is when he disputed with his council A youth. Ser Michele. who was in love with one of the maidens attending up- on the doge's wife, so angered the doge by his persistence at a fete that was being given at the palace that 1t was ordered that he be flung from the solajo. This was done, and when the other persons had left the palace Michele returned and wrote on the chair in which the doge was wont to sit: Marine Faliero, the husband of the fair wife; others kiss her, but he keeps her."
 This so angered the doge that ne ordered Michele tried. The council, taking his youth into consideration. merely banished him, which caused and he reproached the council for not having hung him.
 The day following the sentence of Ser Michele a gentleman of the house of Rarbaro went to the arsenal and required certain things of the masters of the galleys. He did this in the presence of the admiral. who resent ed it, whereupon the admiral was struck by the gentleman and ran bruised and bleeding to the doge. He demanded that the gentleman of Bar baro be punished. The dukes reply was: Think about the shameful gibe that was written about me on my chair and see how the council of forty respected our person. Upon this the admiral answered: My lord duke. if prince, l have tho heart. if you do but help me. to make you prince of all this state; and then you may punish them all"
 The doge was at once interested and thing. They agreed to cali in some others. and finally there were from forty to fifty loyal conspirators. 1t was agreed that the leaders would station themselves about the city with about forty followers each. They were to start frays among themselves on an appointed day in order that tho doge might have a pretense for tollins the bells of San Marco. which were never runE except upon the order of the dose. The ringing of the bells would bring the noblss and leading citizens to ths piazza to know the cause of the riet and then the cen- spirators were to cut them to pieces and MariHO FaiieFo was te be pros oiaimed the lord of Venice,
