While w. J. Bryan showed his au-
dience that he still has the ability to
show the people fine sample of ora
tory, in his speech here last Thursday
afternoon, but those who attended
were much disappointed in the argu-
ments he presented for the party
which he claims to represent. Really,
he had no argument at all. There
was fair sized audience here to greet
him and listen to him, but why mis-
represent the facts and say that there
were thousands here. AS matter Of
fact our local opera house holds less
than thousand people, and there was
room in it for all and yet it was not
filled to it's capacity. There were
probably in the neighborhood of 1000
people heard him, and it is a fair es-
innate to say that two-thirds of those
present were women and girls. As
one listener stated after the speech,n if
Mr.. Bryan had no better argument
than the ones he presented here for
his party that his talks would make
votes for the Republican party.

RANGER 10 RESCUE.

Lost in the vast woods north of
Lake Superior and without food for
five days, an aged man finally made
his cries heard and rescuers were
guided to him by smoke from fire.
The story Of the rescue is told brief
" in a copy Of the diary Of P. ]. Bay
lie, acting state ranger in the Grand
Marais district, received at the state
forestry Offices at the Capitol.
tWild Looking Sight"
"The old man when we came upon
him was a wild looking sight, his hair
flying and his clothes all ragged from
! his wanderings through the thick
brush" said the diary. "He had not
even knife and his escape is little
short Of miraculous.
"The old fellow is Russian and
speaks little English. We fed him
and took him to an abandoned cabin.
where we stayed. over night. He
seemed like good old soul and very
grateful for his rescue.
Hear Faint Cries.
The ranger first heard faint cries
for help when he was on the west end

again at his lunch, and finally coli
umn Of smoke enabled him to locate
the lost man.
It was the second rescue reported
this summer by Ranger Baylie.

HoGG1NG DOWN CORN

The hogs at the North Dakota Ex-
pertinent station are husking the;,
own corn. The flint varieties were
mature enough to. begin ''hogging
down" nearly two weeks ago. At the
Edgeley Sub-station corn is also being
''hogged down.. In previous trials In
hogging down corn at the North Da.
keta experiment station the hogs have
given returns averaging $4,000 pc,
3aeie. Trials haYh been madepin com.
pairing the returns from thogged
down., as compared to corn husked
and fed the hogs. The best returns
have been given by the hogs helping
themselves to the corn. This saves
the work of husking and hauling the
corn to the hogs.
When the corn is "hogged down..
such early maturing varieties as the
Gehu and Squaw corn can be grown,
These would be little difficult to
husk due to the ears being so close to
the ground, and they can not be hand,
led by machinery for the same season.
Growing such varieties make it pos
sible to start the corn feeding earle:
than would be possible with the lar
ger varieties of corn. In this way
"hogging down" corn lengthens the
corn feeding season before the cold
weather.

Carranza, it is understood, is cha

Of particular significance is the re-

The belief here is that the first

WORLDS TROTTING RECORD MADE ON HARTFORD TRACK
Veteran Geer's Horse, St. Frisco, Wins Six Heat Race From Mabel Trask, Setting Up New Time of 2:O714.
(ey Review Leased Wirel

HARTFORD. Conn. Sept 1.-Two new worlds records were made here today when St. Frisco won the classic Charter Oak state for 2:OS trotters after six of the most exciting heats of light harness racing ever witnessed at Charter Oak park. The second heat was declared by the judges a dead heat, the time, 2:07 displacine the worlds record, when Sweet Marie and Aristo raced a head heat in 2:OSA at Brighton Beach track in 1909.
 All three events were fairly fast and close. but the Charter Oak event furnished thrill in every finish. Less than half head separated St Frisco and Mabel Trask at the close Of each heat. Mabel Trask took the first in smooth style, but in the second they fought it out on even terms from the turn into the stretch to the wire and the judges could not separ- ate them as they passed the stand.
 In the third heat Alma Forbes and Laramie Lad set the pace for the first half mile. St Frisco and Mabel Trask went to the front on the far turn, but St. Frisco's efforts to over come Mabel Trasks slight margin were not sufficient.
 In the fourth heat the veteran rein man. Geers, set the pace. Mabel Trask could not reach him before the wire. The fifth heat was a repetition of the fourth, only faster. It was only half second slower than the worlds record for fifth heat and the sixth also was only half a second behind the worlds record time. In the last heat Mabel Trask made a game effort to pass the bay stallion and did show in front but the burst of speed did not prove effective until just after St Frisco's head appeared under the wire.
 The two year old trot was captured by Emma Mcgowan in straight heats Pittsbure was the winner or the seven starters in the z:I5 trot.
