DERBY RACES
EXTRAORDINARY INCIDENTS AT
WoRLD-FAMous TRACK.
Ambition Of Every Sportsman Inter
ested in Game Is to Win Great
cortest--Lord George RentincI<'s
Sore Disappointment

Since S. Arnull rode Diomed to vic
tory in the English Derby in 1880
some extraordinary incidents have oc-
CURED in connection with this world
famous race, to win which princes and
peers have sacrificed fortunes with
out success, says writer in London
Answers.
Time was when the house of COM
mons was won't to adjourn on Derby
day. SO that our jaded legislators could
run down and bask in the breezes
which blew DER EPSON Downs. Again.
when the great Crimean war was rag
ing, parliament ordered that the re-
suit of the race should be included in
general orders ,s
From time immemorial the Derby
has been marked by sensations. On
three occasions, for example, horses
starting at the forlorn odds Of 100 to
/ against have captured the classic
prize. Jeddah, in 1898; Signorinetta
ten years later, and Aboyeur, two
years ago, were their names. and their
performances recall others which will
stand out prominent in turf history
for all time.
In 1918, one remembers. the race
was doubly memorable. There was the
terrible episode of the,suffragette, who
sacrificed her life in vain attempt to
stop the horse, whilst, as kind of
anticli1nax, came the disqualification
of Craganour after finishing first. Last
year we had the memorable scratching
of the Tetrarch, the quantity
animal of the rocking-horse type, OF
whom such great things we're ex-
pected.
Whenever the great Epson carnival
comes round, sportsmen, young and
old, talk about the Snowstorm Derby,
when Hermit, starting at. 62 to
against, owing to a report that he was
lame, won for Mr.. Henry Chaplin, net
ting him a fortune. Daley. the jockey
who bestrode the successful animal
received present of $4,000 from the
owner, and the victory went long
way toward running the plunging mar
quis of Hastings.
AS to drama, what could be more
tragic than the action of that famous
sportsman, Lord George Bentinck? :?
Lord George, after spending lifetime
in attempting to win the Derby, sold
all his horses in disgust for lump
sum of 10000 down, and retired from
the turf with his ambition ungrati-
fed.
Included in the sold racers was
Surplice, who, ironically enough, car
ried off the Derby in 1S48. After
ward Surplice also won the st. Leger,
and few days later. Lord George
Bentinck was found dead on his es-
tate at Welbeck.
When Bend Or won the blue ribbon
for the duke of Westminster, the win
ner was Immediately objected to, the
allegation being that he was not the
horse stated. but Tadcaster, and that
the two had been changed when foals.
There was tremendous amount of ex-
citement, as fabulous sums were at
stake, but after interrogating everyone
connected, from the stud grooms up
ward. the authorities decided in favor
Of Bend Or. The latter afterward be-
came additionally famous as the sire
of the celebrated Ormonde.

CURING AND SMOKING MEATS
Use Only Green Hickory or Hard
Maple in Preparing Hams and Ba-
con-Don't Use Soft Wood.

The proper method Of curing and
smoking meat which is to be kept for
summer use is worth considerable at
tention. To cure hams and bacon and
sausage and smoke them so that they
are not only delicious but have good
keeping qualities, is something of an
art.
For smoking hams and bacon. using
only green hickory or hard maple, as
knotty as possible, in tight smoke

Saved From Suffering

/ wish to tell you the good results my
self and husband received from DR.. Kill
mers Swamp Root. About eleven years
ago ! had severe attack of La Grippe
and was confined to my bed about eight
weeks under the doctors care. He pro-
nounced my case kidney trouble and rheu-
matism and not receiving the results from
the doctors treatment / should have re-
ceived, decided to try Swamp Root. Aft
er taking several bottles of Swamp-Root
was able to get up and attend to my work.
About year later my husband was af-
fected with severe attack of kidney trou-
BILE and doctored for some time with the
doctors and received no benefit. Knowing
of the good I had received, he decided to
try Swamp-Root. His condition was such
that he was confined to his bed and words
cannot tell how he suffered, but after TAX
ing Swamp-Root he was relieved SO he
could go on with his work without pain.
] wish to heartily recommend Swamp Root
to all persons afflicted with kidney and
bladder troubles and you may publish this

The Michigan legislature, in pass
ing the code OF game laws now In
effect, had no intention OF depriving
boys under seventeen years old OF the
privilege OF hunting, according to
Senator George Williams, OF Calumet.
Recently an Interpretation OF the
game laws made public by the
attorney general points out that mas
much as no provision is made for
granting gun licenses 10 boys under
seventeen years OF age, and no hunter
is allowed in the woods without gun
license. the effect OF the laws recently
passed are TO deprive boys under
seventeen of the privilege OF hunting.
Senator George Williams, who was a
member OF the senate committee on
game law revision and is thoroughly
familiar with the law, asserts II was
not the intention OF the legislators 10
keep boys out OF the woods. The pro-
vision OF selling gun licenses only TO
hunters over seventeen years OF age,
he says, was intended to exempt i'm
fants" from the payment OF the gun
license fee and reduce the cost Of hunt
ing TO a minimum for boys under
seventeen. There is no reason why
boys should be kept out Of the woods,
according TO Senator Williams. and
in preparing the gun license provi-
sion the legislature took in considera-
ton that most boys OF this age are ac-
companied by adult hunters, usually
someone OF the same family. when
they go into the woods. This adult
hunter pays for a gun license, and II
the boy also were required to secure a
gun license, il virtually would amount
to double taxation on the same hun.

About a week ago valuable COW
owned by Alex Dalpra failed to come
home at the accustomed time and the
following day search was made for
Il. After looking around for some
time the animal was finally discovered
lying dead In the vicinity of the Gene
terry. II was at first thought that some
one shot the COW but this proved un-
true when an examination failed to
discover any trace OF bullet wounds.
Last week Shoemaker" Matt. who
lives on the lower end of Superior
avenue, instituted search for his
COW after II had stayed away for two
days. He found the dead carcas OF the
animal last Sunday Just short dis
lance away from where Mr.. Dalpra's
COW was found. Investigation proved
that this animal had also met a like
death. II is now the general opinion OF
the owners that their cows came in
contact with some kind of poison
which some gypsies, who had been in
camp there several weeks previous,
scattered around II is said that these
