Theo. Case, Corrigan { #nd Clydeo were: all accorded stanch sup- {port, but it looked as if Massa had dropped back into his class again, and he ruled favorite.* The race showed the money to/ be well invested. Massa was compelled to trudge along through the deep footing on the rail to the stretch, where Brussell took out on better going. Harty brought Theo. Case along with a rush at the close, but half a length. Clydeo, a good thing un- loaded on the market, ran fourth, behind Corrigan. Four favorites were turned down. The attendance showed an Increase over the previous day. BLAGG WINS HANDICAP. If Harry Stover's black colt Duke of Orleans can beat Blagg he will have to deal out @ better article of speed than that which he furpished in the two-year- old scramble yesterday. The odds were all in his favor, but Blagg, backed from 5 to 3%, won buck-jumping from the first choice. Jimmy Coffey’s Elmdale ran a distant third. Over a more sloppy track Tam O'Shan- ter, a heavily ‘ked favorite, could probably have won the s ber. The heavy going caught Bucolic, the second choice, at his best, and in a long, severe drive Wright landed him first at the wire, a head before the O’'Shanter gelding.

LIRS PLIN BLOUDY DEEDS RENO, Feb. 27.—Wesley Gordon, a ne- gro, one of the three desperadoes who tried to break from the County Jail at Elko, has made a sensational confession following a third effort to escape. The third attempt at a delivery was discov- ered after the prisoners had filed off their handcuffs and broken their ‘‘©regon boots”” to bits. They had then torn up a heavy iron bed and with pieces of iron several feet long were preparing to kill the jailer when he entered to feed them. They were found lying in wal* for him, but were rushed by four guards, who overpoweresd them and chained them in the cells, Gordon says that he and his two com- panions, Sterling and Watson, were fdr- nished with files, knives and gunpowder by a trusty. Guns were ‘planted” out- side the jail. He says that after killing the jaller they intended to break for the hills and kill any one who might pursue them. With the powder they had blown thelr heavy steel “‘Oregon boots’ to pleces and with the saws had removed their bandcuffs. The trusty will be held to the Grand Jury.

A bank book was found on his person showing that he had several hundred dollars in a San Francisco savings bank. So far as is known he has no relatives in this country. —_————————— rs. Corey at Sloux Falls. SIOUX FALLS, S. D. Feb. 27.—Mrs. | Corey, wife of Willlam Corey, the steel magnate, arrived here today accompa- nied by a malid, and took rooms at a leading hotel. _ was found dead in his automobile near Lemont, Il., on November 19, 1904. Chief Collins at first denied that the two men had left for California, but later made some admissions that gave color to the story. He refused to say to what portion of the coast Detective Burns had gone. Bate was called to the Auditorium Ho- tel to receive a passenger who telephoned for him and who called himself “Mr. Dove.” They rode away and in the morning the body of Bate was found in the machine twenty-five miles distant, and “Mr. Dove' has never since been seen. Slavin did the telephoning for “Mr. Dove,” and is the only ‘who saw him and Bate ride away together. That is the way Dr. Wiley takes his, for he admitted it today to the committee on interstate and foreign commerce, before which he was appearing in support of the pure food bill. Dr. Wiley claims that what is common- Iy Known as “blended” whisky is not whisky at all. He says “blended” whisky would be a blending of two whiskies, but that most of the so-called “‘blended™ whis- ky is nothing more nor less than alcohol, water, caramel or burned sugar and fla- voring extracts. The fancy for straight whisky is not a passing fad with Dr. Wiley, who, as the Government chemist, has analyzed sev- eral thousand specimens of whisky, but enters into his private life. He said that when he was elected a member of the House committee of the Cosmos Club he found that only blended whiskies could be obtained there. “I succeeded in getting some strn|g‘h.l‘ whisky from Kentucky, seven years old,’ Dr. Wiley told the committee. “The first man who took a drink of it declared it was adulterated goods, but within a week every man in the club was drinking th: straight goods, adding to it a bit of water to dilute it. -I recently procured.for the club a cask of Scotch whisky, made in Scotland in 1891, and I paid for it 12 shill- ings and 6 pence a gallon, which, with the duty in the United States, brought it up to about $4.25 a gallon. It is mighty fine “I“):' Wiiey made 'a plea for “bottled in bond’* whiskles in preference to those which are not. He sald the Government fixed the standard, and safd it should con- sist of 50 per cent alcohol and 3 per cent water, while in bulk {ofldl proof might as low as 60 per cent. b?‘Blendedwhlskies compared with straight whiskles are like lqrdxin:lused by d::— ers on which to play gowns - ::‘e‘d :vlth real girls,”” Dr. Wiley declared. —_————————— Horse Falls Upon a Priest. BAKERSFIELD, Feb. 27.—Rev. G. G.

The _priest had partially crossed the track and stopped to allow a passenger train | to pass. His horse became frightened and backed the buggy against a gravel train in motion on another track.
