Draw for the Big Stakes. i A e Rest Assured, a brindle and white grey- hound from the Pasha Kennels, won the reserve stake at Union Coursing Park yes- terday. This breaks a long list of defeats for the dogs representing these kennels. Rest Assured made a bad start in her first course of the day, but improved gradually until she raised the final flag. She met Gold Hill in the last course. The latter had a slight advantage in the slip, but Rest Assured passed him and secured the first turn.

WILL PUNISH THE PERUVIAN REBELS Government Dispatches Troops to Combat Durand, Who Espoused the Cause of Pierola. Special Cable to The Call and the New York Herald. Copyrighted, 15%, by James Gor- don Bennett. LIMA, Aug. 23.—The Government has sent troops to combat the revolutionary leader, Durand, who was the hero of the last revolution and placed Pierola in the Presidency. Several political arrests have been made, chiefly by persons who fought in favor of Pierola in the last revolution. It is a curious fact that President Pierola has to-day alienated nearly all of the stanchest among his former friends. The Board of Health has closed Peruvian ports to vessels from Portugal and India. SRR NO FURTHER OFFICERS. Volunteer Organizations of the Mili- tia Not to Be Changed. WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.—An order of the War Department directs that the State volunteer organizations under the act of April 22, 1868, must be maintained while in the United States service as originally accepted. The act of March 2, 1899, pro~ viding for several officers not allowed when the regiments from the States were accepted, some Governors have endeav- ored to have these ofticers added since the passage of the last act. ——————————— Advances made on furniture and pianos, with or without removal.
