ALL THE SPEED HORSES AT THE
COMMONS 8T0CK FARM HAVE
BEEN MOVED TO THE STATE
FAIR GROUNDS.
In the last issue of the Western
Horseman, published at Indianapoli3,
the local correspondent has a long ar
ticle in regard the , horsemen of
Wayne county. It is as foHows:
Richmond, Ind., is still on the trot
ting horse map, according to a corres
pondent from that city, who is afraid
that some of the horBemen are hiding
the light under the old, proverbial
bushel.
Dr. Zimmerman, he says, is working
a two-year-old colt by Dare Devil,
2:09, that can show better than a two
minute clip at the trot. Ed Holder,
well known show and trottlnr horse
man, is keeping the railroads busy un
loading horses that he is finding a
market for among his many satisfied
patrons. All horses are alike to Ed-
saddlers, drivers, trotters and pacers.
He finds buyers for them all as fast
as they arrive, and has time to turn
out a well-appointed rig from his liv
ery when called for.
To the State Fair.
All of the speed horses at Commons
Stock Farm, Centerville Ind., have
been moved to the state fair grounds,
Indiananolis. Ind.. leaving only the
youngsters and breeding stock. An
derscn Wilkes, heading the Commons
Stock Farm stud, is receiving a liberal
patronage, and hi colts look good.
The Reidston Stock Farm is work
ing its colts on the farm track, and all
seem to be, doing fine under the man
agement of Superintendent John Dag
ler, who has engaged Charley Osborn,
the. well known driver and trainer of
Centerville, to.; pssist him ir working
the young , prospects this summer.
Mr. Dagler states that the Reidston
Stock Farm has sent a few of their
grandly bred mares to some of the
famous sires of the Blue Grass region
two of them, one by Walnut Hall,
the other by Axford, to Peter the
Great; The Gay Girl (dam of Gaity,
2:09; Expedite, 2:24 and Ash
Bow, (2) 2:29), by Andy Wilkes, to
The Bondsman; Roxana to Vice Com
modore and Laura Prodigal, by Prodi
gal, out of Laurel B., by Sable Wilkes,
to Walnut Hall. They have also sent
the mare Miss Elizabeth to Ed Winter,
at . Indianapolis, Ind. Reidston Stock
Farm has two foals by John A. McKer
ron, 2:04, one colt and one filly, that
are out of Stambouletta, 2:10, and
Reidston Girl, by Alarius, out of On-
ward's Daughter, by Onward.
Q. 8. Dougan Happy,
George ' B. Dougan. proprietor of
Reidston Stock Farm, is loud in his
praises of P. O. Shank, in charge of
John A. McKerron and the brood
mares sent to be bred to him. He
sent two mares to be bred to this
horse, and they were returned to him
within sixty days in the best of condi
tion at a moderate cost, and both
mares foaled on the day -due, as per
Mr. Shank's certificate of stallion ser
vice.". : ' '"
H. G. Iredell, pioneer horseman
one of the happiest of men. is driving
a three-year-old Directly that is
sure trotter. He gives the Richmond
dust to those who tackle him on the
road. .
. Otto Krone Is showing a new one
every day, and his supply of standard
bred mares is still on the Increase. He
thinks he has the best Anderson
i Wilkes colt on earth, several Oratorios
and a few Prince Directs.

and conquest. The Republic has leap
ed forward by great bounds until our
colorstnow lead all colors of the world
in commercial, financial and industrial
progress. All these facts give assur
ance thatwars will cease.
The master question of this age is
that of the industrial. Six million
men and women work for wages in
thiscoiintry. John Mitchell says two
millfcns of them never at any one time
have -more than two weeks' wages
ahead. The question therefore is not
of the conquest of country nor one of
armies or navies, but of the con
quests of peace. There will be a
peaceful: revolution along moders In-
dustrlallines there will be disarma
ment in Europe or there must and
will be a Tevolution by the side of
which the famous French revolution
would be but a zephyr.
"Our country should not and must
not follow in the wake of the military
spirit of Central Europe. I hope the
time will come when the building of
ships of destruction will cease and we
will pursue the paths of peace instead
of trailing the bloody pathway of war.
The men who toil in this republic will
help to bring this about, for it is they,
who in the last analysis bear the bur
dens of war."

notified General Manager Scott of the
railroad that he would not permit en
gineers to jeopardize their lives by
taking out trains. He modified this,
however, today amending his order to
accept mail trains.
Unusual Situation.
The situation presented ' today was
an unusual one. The union engineer
who guided the first mail train tlay
sat opposite a strike breaker.
The train, in addition to carrying
the United States employes to distri
bute the mails, carried some railroad
detectives to assist in protecting the
life of the strike breaker if bodily
harm were offered to him.
At various points along the line the
train was hooted and jeered by
throngs of strikers and their friends.
The railroad has instructed its en
gineers to act with extreme caution
for fear some fanatics among the
strike sympathizers plan to wreck a
train. '

June 2 and 3 Opera, "Priscilla."
The New Phillips.
Carmelo's living pictures and art
poses won the unstinted praise of the
large audiences at the New Phillips.
The pictures and poses are themsel
ves a very worthy offering but this at
tractiveness is greatly enhanced by
the beautiful lighting effect. One of
the most popular pictures was Mil
let's well known masterpiece, the
"Angelus," which is shown with a soft
twilight coloring and accompaniment
of music which gives it a particular
ly impressive atmosphere. Carmelo's
poses are something new in the living
picture line, they are in no way of
fensive, but interesting and instruc
tive and few will miss the opportunity
of seeing them.
The comedy of the hill is divided in
to two parts, both of which are suc
cessful. The Cessars. in a sketch and
the Three McKees. in a singing and
talking act, are the successful ones
and the illustrated song gives fervor
to the theme.
