IN OPEN STAKE Hounds of Class Will Run in the Big Event at the Ingleside Coursing Park The run-down of the ninety-six-dog open stake at Ingleside Coursing Park yesterday was productive of many hard and* interesting trials. The talent was in its glory, but four long shots being recorded throughout the entire round. Young Johnnie Rex beat out Black Coon, a 1 to 6 choice, by a close score. Rose of Gold took honors at 4 to 1 from J E H. Vina, at 2 to 1, got the decision from Princess Savoy, and Maid of the Glen, at 5 to 2, got the flag from Bob R. Some great coursing is looked for in to-day’s finals. Restless Acrobat and Full Moon will meet early in the go- ing, and the winner of this course will be heavily backed to secure final hon- ors. Doc Burns, Clover Blossom, Young Fearless, Pasha Pleasant and Ragged Actor are in good trim, and it would not surprise the wise ones to see one of them land in first place. Following are the day's results, with Judge Thomas Tierney’s official scores: Opon stake: First round—Mark Twain beat St. Conn, 7-4: Sir Winton beat Belfast, 12-0; Coaits Goat ‘Eagle, ILS: Wenll best Stvest Locust, : Clover Blossom beat wood Lad, Siiver Cloud beat Meddlesome, 5-0; Toronto heat Ella May, 6-1; Mi Amigo beat Flower of Kerry, 3 of Gold beat J.

Three favorites won. Dug Martin, played from 40 to 1 down to 12 to 1, won the first race and gave the books a severe shock. Flamero was second and Chemist, the favorite, third. Estado, with strong support by the talent, won the second number in handy fashion from Rose Leaf, with Meteora third. Redan was an even-money favorite for the third, but was beaten by Jim Hale and Durbar in the order named. The Long Beach handicap, a hurdle event at a mile and three-quarters over seven hurdles, went to the 4 to 5 favor- ite, Martin Brady. Can Nell was sec- and and Dr. Worth third. Cambaceres, the heavily played second choice, fell at the first hurdle. The fifth race brought out an or- dinary bunch of ten sprinters. Scepter was favorite and won easily from Hin- doo Princess and Wager. Lady Usk and Moonstone bumped ‘at the start and lost their riders, Invictus was the best in the last race, at one mile, and won cleverly from Jingler and Mer- Red Damsel, the 8 to 5 favorite, wi ‘ourth.

Gray pitched good ball for the home team, but the visitors. landed on him for nine hits, three of them being doubles. Gray got touched up badly in the sixth. Graham singled to center, Gan- ley ,sacrified and I'rancks doubled, scoring Graham. Kruger bunted out a single and went to second on Ross’ unsuccessful effort to catch Francks at the plate. Jud Smith ran Kruger down. In the last inning the Angels got in a run, owing to an error by Devereaux and Graham's wildness. Graham walked Eager, forcing the rum, but wound up the game by striking out Raymond when the baws were full. There was no attempt to play Frank Dillon to-day. Dillon will remain here until the final settlement of his case by the national committee. Score: Los Angeles— { Oakland— AB. R. H. P. A. A R.H. P.

What the addition to the total num- ber of voters in the country is likely to be this year is very hard to con- jecture, for the reason that between 1896 and 1900, so far as the election returns show, there was practically no gain in the number of electors. From 1876 to 1880 there was a gain of 800,- 000; from 1880 to 1884, a gain of 1,600,000; from 1884 to 1888, a gain of 1,300,000; from 1888 to 1892, a gain of 500,000, and from 1892 to 1896, a gain of 1,900,000. Between 1876 and 1896 the popular vote for Presi- dential electors increased 65 per cent, or from 8,400,000 to 13,900,000. Apparently owing to the fact that a vast multitude of voters did not go to the polls at all in 1900, the total popu- Jar vote in that year was only 40,000 greater than it was in 1896; and, if anything like a full vote is polled next fall there should be an enormous un- precedented increase in the total vote. In the eight years ended with No- vember, 1896, this vote increased 2,400,000, and, as the population of the country has been steadily expand- ing since 1896, the total vote this year hould show a far greater increase than that of 1888-96. % A thing that renders it extremely difficult to forecast what the increase in this vote may be is the fact that an execptionally large number of immi- grants have landed on our shores in recent years. In the eight years end- ed with 1903 over 3,500,000 foreign- born persons were added to our popu- lation, and a considerable proportion of those persons is now naturalized, and they will take part in the next election. What the proportion may be, however, it is impeossible to judge. It is none too early for political leaders and managers to grasp the fact that “first voters” are likely to con- stitute a more important factor in the !*mprmwhlng campaign than ever be- ifore, and, as a consequence, that they are likely to prove a greater unknown quantity than has ever been the case hitherto. Evidently both of the great political parties wiil need to do a vast amount of missionary work if ‘they hope for victory in November.—New York Commerecial. ——————— Time Lock on Beefsteak. An Iola man recently stopped for a while in a small town in Kentucky. One day he went to the local butcher shop and called for a porterhouse steak. “I have just started in on this beef,” said the butcher, “and I won’t be down to the porterhouse until about 2 o’clock. Come in then and you can get one.” The method of the butcher was to lay half a beef on his 'k and commence at one end and cut along until it was gone, serving his customers with pieces all the way from the hoof to the neck regardless of their references.—Kan- sas City Journal. § RITT IS HAILED AS THE WORLD'S LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMPION ~ REFEREE GRANEY’'S DECISION THE THEME OF THE HOUR Majority of Corbett’s Adherents Frankly Confess That the Best They Expected Wasa “Draw” Decision.

He can scoff at the pretensions of Joe Gans, now that he has proved his mettle against so good a man as Young Corbett. It is the | general impression that Gans has so far outgrown the lightweight limit that he can do but little better than 138 pounds. Britt and Corbett fought at a weight between two recognized classes. As there cannot be a distinetive class for each pound in weight, this match car- ried no distinctive class with it. With Gans out of the reckoning, Britt he had taken part. Champion Jef- fries, with his cut and battered face, ‘was a sight. Corbett was about yesterday and the only visible mark on him was the cut over the left eye, which he sustained in a bumping match with Britt. The little Denver man complained after the fight of a soreness about the body and it hurt him to take a deep breath. He made little of that yesterday. BRITT NOT PRESENTABLE. Britt was not presentable as to face, but bodily and mentally he was active and alert. His face was discolored and cut and his right hand and forearm were out of commission.

Botanists have recently been investi- gating the N-rays, and we are told that they are emitted from plants, as well as from nerves and muscles, and that the flucrescent screen will glow when brought near to the plant, espe- cially the leaves and the roots, where the effect is more pronounced than in the case of the flower. N-rays are emitted from such plants as onions and mushrooms, so that they do not seem to depend upon the presence of chloro- phyll or green coloring matter, their intensity beigg apparently due to the activity and condition of the vegetable protoplasm. This was shown by the fact that the N-rays were produced from germinated seedlings and not from those which had not germinated, while their emission was stopped en- tirely on using chloroform to suspend the vital activity of the plant.—Har- per’'s Weekly. ——————————— After a man gives up his freedom he sometimes wishes he had given up the price and kept his freedom.

The dreary months of bitter cold give way to sunshine, the ice king vanishes and the swelling buds 4 and tender sprouts give evidence of spring’s awakening. The sap, the life blood of all vegetation, is coursing upward through roots and fibres, taking with it from the bosom of mother earth food for the growth and development of vegetable life. Rich soil and a free and abundant : circulation of sap produces healthy vegetation, while poor soil and a deficiency of the life- giving fluid means dwarfed or stunted growth and decay. : . At spring’s awakening the blood from which all animal life draws its sustenance and which nourishes our bodies must be free of all impurities and in a normal, healthy con- dition, or evidences of it will surely crop out in the form of sores and boils, red itching eruptions, pimples, rashes and skin tr9nbles of every description. Warm weather stirs the blood, and in the effort to throw off the accu- mulated poison is thrown into a feverish ex- citement and riotous state, and the skin is the chief sufferer. . The humors and poisons with which it is filled are thrown off through the skin, and so long as the blood is burdened with impurities sores and boils, pimples and blotches, bumps and rashes will continue to come.
