In the final Terry and Lord Drogheda trotted a dead heat in 2:41. As the owners would not di- vide the stakes the pair were asain sent over the course and made another campaign brought two champions ‘to the gallery, one of the pair - being Peter Scott, the largest’ money win- ningtrotter in the history -of light har- ness racing, and the other Directum I, the world’s record pacer in the open.

New York, Aug. 31.—Today's short session of the stock market developed considerable activity and strength af- ter its lethargic opening. There ap- peared to be considerable short cover- ing on the favorable war despatches and additional good statements of rail- way earnings. The railway group took a commanding position. They rose all the way from liberal fractions to a point. but the strongest feature was Southern Railway, in which further accumulation of a substantial charac- ter 'seemed to be progressing. U. S. Steel was hesitant at the out- set but later advanced 111 3-4, a net Allowing for the recent regular and extra dividends of 4 1-4 per cent., steel approximated its maximum of the year. Specialties and related stocks of pool origin were less in evidence, tobaccos, oils anq minor equipments lacking definite trentd but hardening in the later trading. The active list closed at or nearest highest levels. Sales amounted to 170,000 shares. Asidg from another marked con- traction of actual loans, the thiré suc- cessive reduction, the weekly bank statement disclosed no unusual shift- ing of money in connection with Sap- tember interest and dividend pay- ments. There was an extensive inquiry for bonds, mainly the international group, which again reflected the strength of foreign exchange. Total sales (par value) aggregated $3,925,000. Old U. S. bonds were unchanged on call for the week. e STOCKS, - 100 Alaska Gold H & Lot Int_Corp Linseed - . Locomotive Steel Foundry .

H. Gosher. There is an old saying that if a man has a fad you will find evidence of it in his home and thrice fortunate is he whose hobby is in line with his pro- fession. No better evidence this fact can be found that what Thomas W. Murphy has gathered around him at Poughkeepsie, N. Y. One night last winter when the wind was making the snow and ice rasp against the glass en- closed. porch, I made a round of the gallery of champions which decorates the walls of the living room and as I moved from one painting to another, Murphy's remarkable career in the sulky passed before me like pictures on a screen.
