TWO Spills ON MOTORCYCLES.
EIdora Cycle Meeting Results in Two
Accidents to Riders.

Special to Times Republican.
Eldora, Aug. 9.--Eldora's first an
nual midsummer motor speed tourna-
ment held here Saturday last was a
great success. The gate receipts were
$637, and the income from the amphf-
theater concessions and auto provileges
amounted to nearly $500 more. This
leaves the management q little better
than even.
The first event was the free for all, :
in which there We're nine entries and
six started. Albert Streigel, of Kan
sas City won first, making the ten
heats around the half mile track in six
minutes and seventeen seconds. j. y.

The others coming under the wire
were Sig Haugdahl, r. E. Donaldson, E.
NJ. Lyons, and Floyd Willard.
Following this race was the motor
cy Gle race in which there were ten en-
tries with five to start. On the first
round two cycles collided and r. Nj.
Bries of Marshaiftown, had his nose
broken and was otherwise bruised but
not seriously, and pulled out of the
race; while w. w, Nichols came out
better, mounted his cycle and proceed
ed. However, on the last round at the
last turn toward the home plate Mich
OILS was making sure for second money
when he lost control of his machine
and it failed to turn, plunging straight
forward, and tore away the fence, lift
ing two fence posts which were set two
and one-half feet in the ground. while
the rider landed many feet farther on
and was picked up for dead. He was
hurried to the emergency hospital,
where he was given the best attention
but did not gain consciousness for
more than five hours. The doctor this
morning reports him doing well and
says his patient will be out in few
days.
The motorcycle race was won by
Corners. of Marshalltown. five miles in
six minutes and fifteen seconds. c. H.
-Tyrrell, of Sioux City, took second.

What Scandal Is.

Of scandal, the New Republic writes: There are few of us who do not enjoy this sense of really know. ing what's what. It extends our ex- perience, and gives us vicarious i'm. portance. If we cannot live great passions, we can at least read about Mme Du Barry's boudoir; If we can. not be smart, we can at least feel that we have an insiders knowledge Of the smart set. The moral earnest ness and deep attention which people will devote to discussing other pe0- ple's domestic affairs suggests that gossip is perhaps genuine primi- tive art in which there is interest through pity and fear and pride and joy. One woman leaves her husband; hundred women chatter about it, and their passionate interest might make cynic wonder whether they are not living through all the emo- Upns of a great adventure without the risk of moving away from their own steam radiators. Gossip is ex- perience without responsibility. It is a means of taking part in inter- esting or important events without any of the risk that comes of being an actor in them. Gossip, in short, Is the pleasure of the spectator at tse business o, life."

Spook-Riddcn Babylon.

In lecture ill connection with tho Egypt Exploration fund, on Burial Customs in Mesopotamia and Egypt" Dr. l.. w. King said the spirit which animated the Egyptians in their varied and changing practices toward the dead was based on affection and rev. erence. but the Babylonian, in the main, was prompted by fear. The Babylonians were probably more spook-ridden than any other nation of antiquity, and their magical texts made it clear that the most terrible class of spirits were the ghosts of the dead who for some reason had been unable to enter the underworld. Driven to hunger and thirst, such a gtost might roam about and fasten on anyone with whom it had relations in this life. and it would plague him until he performed the rites that could give peace. It was mainly to lay the ghost and prevent 1t from haunt ing" that the Babylonians were scru. pulous in performing the due burial rites.-~LOndon Times.
