STONE FOREST STUNNED

New York.--South America has a natural park that resembles, and even surpasses, the Garden of the Gods" in Colorado It is the stone forest of Peru. three miles above sea level in the Andes mountains.

 Scientists are uncertain as to what natural forces carved the gray rocks of the stone forest, says writer in the January Mentor Magazine.

 Of the vast tree Whose blue, still branches Drank the sea. With questing gaze, Hungry and tense, Burned not that broad Magnificence. Seeing no beauty, Seeing only bars, Of gold and silver, And gems like stars. Silks and emeralds, Ivory and furs, And strange new plunder From foreign CUTS. Plunged the ship on Through cresting seas, With no land risen To give him ease. But to his soul And his souls sight Shaped allurements Of fierce delight: Treasure footed With pike and sword, And covering slaves Dumb to his word: Ships and sailormen, Fire and death, And glory, glory With every breath. Cortez that night trod The deck alone In the high heaven A great moon shone.

BLOCKS COLT FAvORITE

LATONIA, Ky, June 24-A new
king Of the American turf was to
be crowned at the historic track here
this afternoon
Six Of the greatest thoroughbreds
i'll the country were to go to the
post in the $4,000 Latonia Special,
prepared to race their hearts out in
an effort to get under the wire win
ner. The largest throng that ever
packed the stands here was expected
to cheer the winner, regardless OF
which horse it hapuened to be.
Cherry Tree and John Finn were
withdrawn from the race early to-
day. This left six st4l in the stake
Norwich. Whiskaway, Olympus, Pill
Iory, Tribodeaux and Deadlock.

lieved this morning More than the
rich money prize was at stake. The
regulations Of famous horses. trainers
and Jockeys was involved.
Norwich. who wears a Russian
name, but runs like a true son OF
the American track, was out to prove
that Whiskaway was lucky when he
showed his heels TO the Ben Block
colt a week ago at Aqueduct. Whisk-
away was determined to prove THAI

that could be repeated Pillory.
r. T. Wilson's swift 3-year-old, which
has captured more than 100000 In
prizes this season, hoped to add to
that record today and also achieve
the distinction OF running away from
Norwich and Whiskaway.
Then there was Deadlock, the hops
of Bluegrass Kentucky; Thibodeaux,
and Olympus, who hoped that some
stray wind of fortune would blow
them across the line a winner.
The consensus of opinion seemed
to be that the race would lie between
Norwich. Whiskaway and Pillory,
but there Is always the dark horse"
lurking in the background. If either
OF the three favorites-or all of
them--ran out their endurance in the
early stages trying to Erab off :. COM
