FAST HORSE RACES
FOR FAIR PATRONS
High Class Ponies and the Best
Cowboy Mounts Will Com
pete for Prizes.
Halt Mile Track
New Track Built for Harness Events
VIII Permit Speed Records
Being Established.

HELENA, Sept. 20-Through the
thrills and excitement of the specta-
tors to gravity-defying plane or a
speeding motor car may lessen and
wane from repetition, the intensity of
interest in the dash of the ponies at
the home stretch has never slackened
although horse racing may be in
cluded in the category of the oldest
of sports.
The wire will be raised at the new
half mile track at the Montana state
fair grounds at Helena next Tuesday
over a field of the fastest horses to
be seen in the state since the palmy
days when horses instead of autos
held the speed records on racing
tracks. Throughout the five days of
the fair visitors will experience those
indescribable thrills which simply
can't be repressed when a field of
eager thoroughbreds take the track.
Perhaps these thrills will be but
q mere modern expression of the feel
ing which the primitive family
watched prehistoric "dad" dash for
the safety Of the home cave, astride
fieet and long-haired pony, with the
huge jaws of hungry monster snap
ping hungTily in his immediate rear
This may or may not be the be-
ginning of interest in fast horses
bu5 at any rate, in spite of the latest
IN mechanical speed contrivances, in
terest in the coming races at the state
far indicates that the love of fast
horses is not dead and that horse rae
ing still continues to be the favoritt
sport Of kings and rich man and poo
man alike.
True enough, the thoroughbred O.
today has lost the long hair and un
gainly appearance of his ancestors
but he has retained his fleetness, an
though the outcome of the races o.
the half-mile track may not be a
vital TO the welfare Of the riders an
their mounts as were the races O
primitive times, judging from tn
quality of the strings of both rur
ming and harness horses that hav
been entered for the fair, they lac
none Of the speed.
In addition to the horses alread
within the state, stables of so G
more harness and running horses al
en- their way here from the Dakoti
Wyoming circuit. Two races, eac
TO be the best three out of five one
mile heats, will be run daily, and a
lovers Of horses are assured of a fu
program Of fast competition.
For thoroughbred horses, thrt
running events will be held daily fl
purses running from $3.50 to $50
divided 20, 20 and 10 per cent. El

Active work has started this week
for clearing the Indebtedness Of the
Deaconess Hospital. This indebt-
edness has been a source Of great
worry to the members of the board
of directors Of the hospital, and to
Miss Ackerman, superintendent Of the
institution. There is a balance due
on the construction and equipment
cost totaling about $4,000, which it
is hoped to clear up at once.
The original plans Of the hospital
estimated building and equipment
of about S75 900, and when the cam
paign for funds was carried on four
years ago for the purpose Of erect
ing the building, that sum was near
ly all subscribed However, the in
creased cost Of building material and
labor, due to the war time increase
in all commodities, bn,ught the cost
of the hospital up to nearly $4,000
This has all been paid with the excep.
ton Of about $71 ,000,' upon which
there is an accrued interest," due Of 4
little over $4,000.

Mr. Harding also called attention
to the sums now being expended for

cost of this work, with insurance liza
bility added, would probably exceed
$25, 900, 100000.

this was not definitely known. Treas

ConstantinopLe Now Safe From
Any Attack of Advancing Turks
Opportunity Musapha Kema Pasa Had for Couu
Against the City Has Been Lost by Quick Strengthening

CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 49,
British military experts here believe
that whatever opportunity Mustapha
Kennel Pasha had for coup against
Constantinople has now been lost in
view of the quick strengthening of
the allied defensive forces in the neu-
tral zone.
All the available British war ships,
with the exception of the battleship
Benbow, which is in dry docks, have
left Malta for Constantinople, and
the Dorset regiment from Egypt and
the Staffordshire regiment from Glib
raltar are now on the way.
Forces landed from the British ship
have already intrenched themselves at
Chanak, on the Asiatic side Of the
Dardanelles, bringing the strength Of
the British land forces to 10000
Two Italian battalions are expected

Assurances that the British domin-
ions are also ready to dispatch troops
to the Dardanelles, if necessary, have
helped to allay the anxiety of the
population, and Constantinople is
breathing easier. It is believed that
an attack by the Kemalists now
would meet with certain repulse.
General Pelle, French high COM
missioner, who has gone 10 Smyrna
to consult with Mustapha Kemal, is
reported to have been instructed by
the allied command to warn the ma

here either on the afternoon or in
the evening of that date. Mr.. Good

witnessed a great many of the hard
ships now suffered by those who have
been deprived of their property rights
and earnings.
While in the state, Governor Good

will discuss the political situation
from the Republican standpoint. He
is a member of the Republican ma

CONTEST TO Close
FRIDAY FOR QUEEN
All Votes Must Be Sent in Before
Five O'Clock to Be
Counted.

The contest for Queen of Montana
will close on Friday evening, Septem-
Der %, at s. o'clock. All votes must be
in by that time. It was the inten-
tion to close the contest on the goth,
but due to the fact that some of the
papers in the county announced the
closing date for the 22nd, that date
has been set for the final receiving
of votes. There has been a large
number of votes sent in during the
past week.
The contest has developed a big
lead in votes sent in for three of the
young ladies. Miss Lucille Roher, of
Bozeman, has at present 10000 votes,
while Dorothy Bevier, of Logan, is
second with 12,2OO. Alice Davis is
close to her with 1880 votes, so
there is a chance for any of the three
girls winning. Miss Peggy Ham
mond, who was entered by some of
her friends, withdrew from the con-
test, as she was going to be out Of
the city.
When all of the votes have been
received they will lbe checked over by
a committe selected by DIR. Walsh, of
the Montana State College, who is in
charge of the Gallatin county con-
test. The winner of the contest will
