VERYTHING was lovely yesteray, and the third day of the Breeders Tmeeting was marked by an at- tendance that was really magnificent when compared with that of tho SERCR LT two provious days.

The weather was as if made to ordor, with an Ttalian sky overhead and a delighttul breeze that rendored tho situation pleasant and enjoyablo to a superiative de- gree. There was a large numbor o ladies presont and their beaming facos and gay yaiment lent an additional charm to the afternoon’s sport. The Seventh Ward Mili- tary band was at its best, and between heats kept the air resonant with its inspir- ing and beautiful strains. The judges were: James Culbertson of Abilene, Kan.; Colonol L. [.

Briggs, Superior, Neb. ‘A rather amusing featvre of this battle of the youngsters was that the three competitors belonged to varee prominent members of the association, Gaskel to President Kesterson, Consolator to Secrotary Briggs and Phoenau to W. A. Paxton, jr. On the third trial the Jittle fellows were given the word by Starter Swigert and ¢ot away on a line. with Conso- lator holding the pole, Gaskel second and Phoenam on the outside. Consolator pulled away from his comrades in an encouraging way on the first quarter, and Gasicel, making a bad jump up, falling to the rear. Just be- fore rounding into the stretch Phoenam started after Consolator, and catching him coming down, passed him handily and crossed the scratch a iwinner by three longths, Gaskel managing to beat Conso- lator out for place. Time: 1:251¢. Another fine start marked the second heat, Phoenam piloting to the quarter, where ho left his fect, surrendering first position temporarily to Gaskel. The younuster quickly recovered his lost ground, however, and won again by two or thres lengths. Consolator acted badly and in con- sequence was obliged to rest content in the lagt holo.

She recled oft the first quarter in 86§, the half 1:09% and tho threo quarters in 13423, whero she percoptibly let up, and finishing the mile the splendid time of 2:173, within three- fourths of & second of the best time ever madeovera half miletrack by a S-year-old.

It could coin the 140,000,000 ounces of silver purchased under the Sherman act, and turn the profit of coinage, or seignorage, which would amount to 50,000,000, into the treasury. The coin thus made avaiiable could be deposited at national depositories, and being thers de- posited would at once enter into the circula- ton of the country. *“The present falling off in the rates of the government,” continued General , “in- dicate that unless the step 1s taken of in- creasing its resources by the profits to be derived from the coinagoe of the bullion now in the treasury, iv will be under the neces- sity of selling bonds, if it would escape a do- ficiency of at least $50,000,000 at the close of the current fiscal year.” Wall Street for a Week. NEw Youx, Aug. 11.—Bradstreot's stock market roview tomorrow will say: The tono of the market hus been strong, almost with- out interruption, and prices have advanced in spite of the financial situation and the un- ainty which attends the outcomo of leg- islation of the silver question. Kor this ro- sult credit must be given in the main to the exaggeratod operations of the bear party during the last two months and to the heavy absorption of stocks for investment account which followed the excessive depression in values. The market was ovorsold by the bears, who permitted the investing public to absorb the floating supply bofore they real- ized the danger. ‘The present condition of the market is the outcome of this factor. Apart from this the market has been nar rowed professionally in character and very nervous in tone. Closed 1ts Doors.

Erom a resident of Jackson, who is well acquainted with the operations of the gang, this story was had. “The Meachamites number between thirty-five and fifty men, and the point of oporation is Meuchambel, six miles from CoYeyville and seventeen miles from Thompsonville, Five years ago when the settlement was founded, these men plied their vovation as farme Tho ounty is prohibition, but one day last year a sign was displayed in the village that whisky could be obtained on certain nights each weok by applying at a_certain store. Customers were plentiful, When thoy en- tered the store they were mot by masked men, who dealt them out whisky in such | quantitios as desived. “his violation of tho law led to erimes being committed. ‘The best citizens ex- pressed themselves freely and_several wero threatened with death” if they took any action. Finally John Hare had his barn ani house burned and on going into the yurd to fight the flames he was shot at. Joseph Anderson was another victim, He was shot down while walking through his field and died instantly. His assassin was never arrestod, although it was well known who committed the deed. A fow months later a thrifty old man was killed whilo at work in his mill. At this time the colony was widening and taking in more men. Many joined tho gang through protect themsolves.

Two wee later Sam House, a_brother of Willis, was killed in like manner.
