A Perfect I)ny ntul tJood Sport nt Alumni J'nrk. Tho races yesterday at Alumni Tark wero close and hotly contested and af forded tho spectators some good sport. The day was perfect for racing, and the men made quite good time consld erlnu tho condition of the track. This va,hovever. In a better condition than usual, ns several of the sharp curves Were banked for the occasion. The first race of the nfternoon was the novice race, In which there were but two entries, Forbes nnd Altken. Altken proved himself the better mat', although Forbes rode a plucky race. Time, 2.49. A half-mile boys' race was the next event. Rutherford, Carroll and Stockor were the entries. The race was a good one and was anyone's until Just before tho finish, when Rutherford, by a spurt, succeeded In finishing slightly beforo the others. Time, 1.19. Rob Dletrlek, of Honosdalo, then gave an exhibition of fancy riding. It was loudly applauded for Ills clever work on the wheel. The half-mile race between Dletrlek, Lee, AVlckwIre and Merrltt proved to be the most exciting of the day. At the end of the first lap Lee caught the rest napping and by a magnificent spurt forged far ahead. A spill, In which Deltrlck was heavily thrown, re tarded the others somewhat, so tho lead was not decreased and Leo easily won. But for tho accident the result might have proven different. The one-mile race for boys under eighteen finished the events. Ruther ford, Carroll and Burke were the en tries. The race was particularly pret ty, as It was a dead-heat between Car roll and Rutherford. Carroll won on tho toss. BIRTHDAY PARTY. Members of Union Division No. 120 Heine Coiigrntulntcd.

"You may not bo aware of it," sen tontlously remarked the newspaper sharp to the editor, "but there are in tho United Stated a grand total of 19, 87C publications which go through the malls at publishers' rates, divided up Into 2.01C dallies. 14,330 weeklies, 358 seml-weeklles, 43 trl-wceklles, 2,550 monthlies, 301 seiql-morrthlles, 80 bi monthlies, 4 trl-roonthlleii, IB? quar terlies, nnd 159 seml-quartorlles. "Of course, New York leads," said the editor, with some local pride, be ing a New York man. "In point of number of publications, yes, but her total, 1,072, doesn't dlvldo up as largely among her G.999,853 peo ple as does Nevada's 27 among her 45, 761 people. In other words, my dear sir," and the sharp grinned with ghoul ish gke, "New York will have to mul tiply her list about three times to get up to the Nevada standard. The Illi nois standard, Including Chicago, with 1,587 publications to 3,826,351 people, Is higher than that of New York, and so are several others." Tim editor winced at tho informa tion. "How about dattlc3?" asked the edi tor. "New York has 17i, which Is 20 less than Pennsylvania nnd 12 more than Il linois and Ohio, each of which has 1C4, and 81 more than Indiana, whose popu lation Is 3,807,449 less than New York's. However, New York comes to the front big on monthlies, nnd her 545 Is morn than double tho number In any other state. "How Is New York's weekly list?" in quired the editor, in doubt. "She has 1,093, which Is 22 greater than Illinois and 197 greater than Penn sylvania. To show how the nearness of the big cities cuts In on local pub lications," continued the sharp, "I call your attention to New Jersey, with a population of 1,4 it, 931!. having SAG pub lications, while Minnesota, with 1,301, 82ft people, or 143,107 less than New Jer sey, has 663 publications, or 217 more. Still, New Jersey, with 46 dallies, Is 10 ahead of Minnesota's list. The District of Columbia, with 230.S02 population, has 4 dallies, while Wyoming, with C0, 705 people, has an equal nurfiber. Tho district, however, with 70 publications, leads Wyoming, which has but 34. These two are the lowest in the list of dallies, except Alaska, which hasn't any, and but four of nil kinds, three being weekly and one a monthly. Com paring a. Northern and a Southern state, wo find that Minnesota, with 1, 301,826 people, has 663 publications, while Mississippi, with 1,289,630, has 191 pnpers of nil kinds, only ten of them being dallies. This is the lowest aver age of dallies to population In the Union. "Tho colored people In that stat'i ought to read the newspapers," sug gested tho editor. "They ought to do a good many things," responded the sharp, "but that Is another story. Most folks wouldn't believe It, but Maine and Louisiana have the same number of publications, 1"0, and Louisiana leads with 17 dallies to 16 In the state of Maine. In popula tion Louisiana has 1,118,587, to 661,09ft In Maine, which Improves tho face of the returns for Maine. Michigan nnd Massachusetts make a fair comparison of states east and middle west, and Michigan, with 2,093,SS9 people, has 762 publications, to Massachusetts 618 for 2,238,943. In dallies Massachusetts, with 79, leads by 14." "I wouldn't have thought Michigan could make so good a showing," ob served the editor. "That's because you don't know Michigan," remarked the sharp. "Now how do you think Texas would com pare with Massachusetts?" "Oh, not at all," exclaimed the edi tor. In horrified tones. "And it doesn't" grinned the sharp. "Texas, with 3,400 less population, has 73 more publications than the old Bay state, with its century or two start. And there's Indiana, where the Hoosl ers como from that tho Bostonlans turn up belr nises at Indiana, with nearly 50,000 people less than Massa chusetts, has 202 more publications, and beats her in dailies the difference between 142 nnd 79, Now, how are you going to explain that?" The editor shook his head sadly. He had been proud of Massachusetts. "Now, there's Idaho," continued the sharp, "a state where the wild and the wolly chew each other's necks and shoot the ntmosphere full of holes. Idaho has 84,385 people and 67 publica tions, 3 of them dally, while Delaware, In the midst of the effete enst, with a population of nearly double (166,493), has only about half as many (38), 5 of them daily. How are you going to get over that?" The editor shook his head again, but not so sadly. He never thought much of the reading taste In n state where whipping posts grew without irriga tion, anyhow. "New Mexico shows the character of her people by having only 50 publi cations to 158,593 people, which shows that tho greaser Is not a voracious render. Of the southern states Geor gia leads with 334 publications, 28 of them dally. Kentucky, with 21,000 more people, has but 293 publications, 24 of them dally. She has 218 weeklies to 237 In Georgia. Iowa makes a good showing with 1,911,896 people and 1,069 publications, C7 dally and 877 weekly, while Kansas, with 1,427.096 people, has but 689 In all, with 45 dally and 672 weekly. California Is fine, too, with 1,208,130 people and 676 publications, 108 dally and 460 weekly. This Is large ly duo to her remoteness." "That's where the circulation edi tors grow, Isn't It.'" asked the editor, with a wan smile. "Um-er," hesitated the sharp, "But as I was saying, It will no doubt break tho heart of Rhode Island, which for so many years has sat under the in tellectual drippings of Boston, to be compared with Oklahoma, where even at this moment nothing may bo drip ping savo gore in gobs, but I shall make the comparison, and the figures show us that Oklahoma, with 61,834 people, has 101 publications In nil, 11 dally and 79 weekly, while Rhode Is Jand, with over five times the popula tion (345,606), has but 67 publications, 17 dally and 36 weekly. Now, let tho Blue Hen's Chickens squawk," and again did the sharp smile with g. g. "And Oregon," he went on, "with moro than 30,000 less population than Rhode Island, has 190 publications, 21 of them being dally. Colorado, with only 412,198 people, does well to have 2S9 publications, 37 of them dally and 221 weekly. Indian Territory, with 125. 000 population, has CI, 5 dally and 54 weekly.

Bryan's state you remember, It Is Nebraska shows up about as well as Ohio, for with less than a third the population (1,058,910) it has about half the number of publica. tlons (578), 29 of them dally and 498 weekly." "Aher, observed the editor, "Making another comparison," the sharp went on, "there Is Vermont, with 332,422 people and 85 publications, 5 dally and 65 weekly, while New Hampshire, right alongside, with 376,690 people, only about 44,000 more, has 104 publica tions, 14 dnlly and 74 weekly. Evidently that excess of population reads only home papers." "Evidently," said the editor. "Prom a general glance at these figures," said the sharp In conclusion, "It will be seen that the popular styles of paper are the dally, weekly, nnd morthly, and that the monthly Is more prevalent in the more sottled.not to say more cultured, pnrt of tho country, though it would appear that Illinois, Chicago's home, has 231 monthlies to 171 In Massachusetts and 243 In Pennsyl vania. Every Stato In tho Union and Territory, except Alaska, has dallies with Idaho at the bottom of the list with three. All have weeklies, but three, and nil have monthlies except Wyoming, with Alaska and Arizona at the bottom with one each. Good-by," said the sharp, unexpectedly, and went away, the editor sighing the meanwhile and wondering why In the name of goodness Noah ever took a pair of stalstlclans on board tho ark when he sailed that time. AN EVE IMIIIiANTIIUOIMST. Ho Seeks nnd Relieves I'eoplo Who Ilnvo Cot Dirt in Their Eyes. From tho Chicago Tribune. A man was walking along State street recently with a handkerchief up to his eye, when a brisk-looking citizen stepped up to him and said: "What's the matter? Got something In It?" "Yes, and it hurts like sixty," replied the other. "Let me look at it." He backed the sufferer up against a building, whipped out a magnifying glass and proceeded to inspect the in flamed optic. "I see it," he said. "It's a little black speck. Hold still." Taking a silk handkerchief from his pocket ho wrapped a cornerof It around his flnser and drew It rapidly across the ball of the eye Just below the pupil. "There It Is," he said, holding the offending particle up for Inspection. "Say, old fellow, whoever you are, I'm awfully grateful to you. You don't know how much you have " "Yes I do. I know all about It, and I don't want any of your thanks. Get ting a chance to do this kind of work now nnd then Is all that reconciles me to living here In March. Morning. And he vanished around the corner, leaving the object of his somewhat spiteful philanthropy gasping his thanks to tho unresponsive atmosphere.
