Feature of Derby Will Be
Long Distance Racing;
Opens November 3

Latonia. KY, Oct. 5.-Long dis
lance racing is featuring the Laton-
ia race meeting, which runs for 81
days ending November 8. Purses in
the seven stake events alone, offered
by the Kentucky Jockey Club, ag-
gregate 100000.
The chief race of the meeting is
the $4,000 Kentucky Special, which
will be run Saturday. This is a
handicap for three-year Odds and up
ward, at one and three-sixteenth
miles, and is the richest event of its
kind run in America. The nearest
approach to the Kentucky Special
was in 1908 at st. Louis when a $780,
900 handicap was offered, and was
won by Colonj,l Girl; but it was a
guaranteed stake and the owner of
Colonial Girl received $4,000 for
his part. In the Kentucky Special
the Kentucky Jockey Club adds $780,
900 to all entrance fees. Zev and
My Own both are entered in this
race. Richer races have been run.
but none of them was an open handi-
cap for three year Odds and upward.
In addition, the LatonAa Cup event,
the longest distance race run in
America, will have $4,000 added.
This race, for three year olds and
up, at two miles and quarter, tests
the stamina of the staunchest
thoroughbred.
The Latonia Championship, "Fall
Derby" is for three year olds only,
at one and three-quarter miles, and
all the good three year olds in train
ing have been named as possible
starters. The owner of the winner
here will receive about $4,000.

PERIL. IN 4 BATH TUB
FIRST ONE BUILT TO TORTURE
 CHILDREN IN 1842

BOSTON, July "A mahogany tub lined with lead and fed by two pipes from an attic water tanF was the first bath tub to torture children on Sat- urday night. It was built by Adam Thompson in Cincinnati, December % lS42, and caused one of the greatest waves of public criticism of the times writes Edwin L. Barker, in "rhe Story of the Bath"
 The tub was not made to torture children but was an improvement on the private tub of Lord John Russell, of England, who up to 1842 was the only Englishman known to take a bath each morning.
 Less than a century ago Thompson took his first morning bath in his special tub. He was so pleased that in the evening he took another. Then at Christmas party he had his guests try out his tub. Four brave' than the rest, accepted the dare and escaped from the peril unscathed.
 The news spread. People came to see the "newfdngied contraption." Az ltators started to agitate.

QUEER STUNTS BY WIRELESS
Cause of "Freakishness" in Messages
is Being Studied, but Appears
Hard to Explain.

! There are still many mysteries about
wireless. and one of its most striking
facts as a science is its freakishness.
No one knows quite what it will do
next. There are same factors that are
apparently inexplicable.
The mystery of what are known as
dead" spots is receiving special atten-
ton. One of the most troublesome of
these spots is to be found over the Red
sea, day out from Alden. Ships
steaming through this zone can get no
wireless messages whatever. AS soon
as they pass out of it messages are
received with perfect clearness.
Other localities are known as
screened zones. In these the pres
ence Of iron or other ore in the earth
Is believed to be the source of the trou-
BILE. 1t is only with difficulty, for ex
ample, that messages can be trans
mitted across Spain from west to east
although sending them from north to
south entails no trouble. Experts say
that the waves are absorbed by min
eral deposits in the mountains of the
interior.
Some zones are remarkable for their
ronductivity. This quality is particu-
larly noticeable in Pacific and Austria
Liam waters.
Sunset affects wireless in some lat |
itudes very curiously, though no one
understands why. Many stations have
reported that messages received in
England from Paris at sunset have be-
haved in q most extraordinary fashion,
assuming jazz" characteristics that !
render them at times very loud and /
clear, and at others almost inaudible. i

DO AWAY WITH ODD CUSTOMS
Ceremonies That Have Existed in Eng
land Since the Norman Conquest
Will Soon Be Ended.

Long ago England was full OF an
cient manor courts, whose lords--lords
of the manor-had power in many
cases to impose fines on their tenants.
The tenants held their land by sys-
tenn called copyhold, and many extra
ordinary customs existed. A tenant
might, for instance, have to pay GER
tain sum when the lords eldest daugh-
: ter was married. the sum being a
fine"
The tenant might have to bring to
the lords court bundle of firewood
on certain days. or pair Of grey
hounds for the lord to hunt with. In
return for these presents the lord
would hand to the tenant wand cut,
perhaps, from willow tree, as sign
of the tenants right to hold the land
he rented.
Scores Of similar customs existed,
and some have been kept up to the
present day; but a recent act of par
lament, the Law of Property act, have
swept away all these manor courts and
their odd ceremonies many of which
have existed since the Norman con-
quest

Nightmare Proved Exciting.

1t was shock to the young bride
groom when, upon their honeymoon
he discovered that his wife was given
to nightmares from which she awoke
with ear-piercing screams. But he tried
to comfort his wife in the most ap-
proved of method. Then she would
fall asleep again and everything would
be all right.
Upon their return to town, however,
and when they were installed in their
newly-rented and newly-furniShed
apartment, other complications set in.
Their bedroom was upon an airshaft,
and they slept with the window wide
open. In the middle of the first night
wiley awOke, giving vent to wild,
frightened nightmare screams. Before
hubby could quiet her. other windows
were flung up, police whistles were
blown, and in only a few minutes there
