Premier Lenine has returned to Pc

an important part in guiding the ne

though avoiding the limelight. The

they suggest that Lenine take his
place at future conferences.
Germans Fear Propaganda.
The Petrograd correspondent of the

this to mean that the Bolsheviki prop

'TWONOTEDR RACE
HORSES TO TRAVEL
BY MOTOR TRUCK

One quarter Of a million dollars worth
instead OF railroad train, probably the
first time a motor truck has been utilized
for this purpose. The two horses. Omar
Khayyam. greatest rival Of Hourless'
and Wesley Hogan, property OF w. Viau'
Of Montreal and New York. are two OF
gentleman. and are trained by r. F. Car
man. who conceived the novel plan Of
transporting the valuable animals in
trucks instead OF railroad trains, with
the consequent vexatious delays from
which he had suffered in the past.
Mr.. CsTman purchased the Acason ga
ton truck for the purpose from the West
Motor Company, distributors OF Acason
trucks in New York, and had the body
especially constructed for The comfort OF
his pets The van is pronounced by those
who have viewed it as remarkably fine
in construction and impressive in ap-
pesrance. II is fourteen feet in length
and seven feet in width and seven feet
in height The inside is fitted iwth two
stalls for the race hoIses. and is pro-
Z 'vided with a stall for a pony which. 1t
seems. is transported as company for a
race horse which is at all nervous The
pony acts as companion
The truck also has spaces arranged
for the carrying of horse clothing
and other material, and in fact lacks
for nothing in the way of convent
ence for the transporting OF such
valuable animals as Omar Khayyam
and Wesley Hogan. In loading the
horses on the truck. the tailboard is
let down and the animals walk into
their stalls, where they are provided
with ample space and with no op-
portunity for injury through the
jarrying of the vehicle en- route
