Show Pt Trackless Trolley Car. Probably not half as much objection lias been raised to the setting of poles to support the trolley wires as to the laying of tracks over which the cars are to run, farmers especially seem' Jng to have a grudge against the tearing up of the roads for this purpose, Now a Boston man has come to the conclusion that If he can get the right of way to set the poles over which to transmit the electric current he can manage to do without the rails; In fact, he will put a motor on any old wagon and turn the horses out to grass or ship him abroad to be eaten. One ie of the rails in a trolley system is A double walls, the space between the walls being filled with an Insulating material, the walls being silvered tc prevent radiation of heat, and the whole enveloped In an Insulating material. They retain their temperature for fourteen days. Several drops in a glass of water produce freezing, and it is Intended for such uses as refreshing drinks and improving the condition of the air in sick rooms.

In a heartbreaking race, sensationally and truly run, Irish Lad, the won son of Candlemas-Arrowgrass- , the rich Brooklyn handicap at a mile and a quarter. Thirty-fiv- e thousand men and women, who made up the largest crowd ever seen at this racecourse, stood up and roared with unbounded enthusiasm as Irish Lad, owned by Herman B. Duryea and Harry Payne Whitney. Indulged in a terrific duel with the favorite, William C, .Whitneys superb mare, Gunfire, Gun. by Ilastings-Roya- l The duel began at the head of the stretch after Irish Lad had made all the running under a beautiful ride from ONeil, and it continued straight down to the Judges stand, where, as the horses flashed past the final mark, the result of the race was in doubt, until Irish Lad's number, 13, was hoisted in full view of the multitude. After the running of the handicap the comment was heard on all sides: Irish Lad and not Acefui should have been sent to England. In the form that he showed he would have won the Derby.' The race was run in 2:05 a record for the Brooklyn and also equaling the best time for the course made by Gold Heels In 1901, carrying 111 pounds. rx -A ' Grades of Cattle and Profit. At the University of Illinois are being fed six carloads of cattle for the purpose of ascertaining what grade of cattle will yield the most profit for the operation of feeding. These six carloads consist of sixteen steers each They were purchased by Professor Mtmfdrd, who was careful to select steers for each lot that should he rep resentative. The six grades were, the fancy selected, choice, good, medium common, Inferior. Every load Is fed in paved lots of equal size provided with the same kind and amount of shelter and the same exposure. The rations fed to each are of the same kind and of the same amount to a thousand pounds live weight of cat tie, except In such instances as the appetites of the cattle belonging to a certain grade clearly show that they are being overfed or underfed as com pared with other grades of cattle used In this test A committee of three expert buyers of live stock visits the station at intervals of one month and fixes the money value gain that each lot has made per 100 pounds during the preceding month. These three men are John T. Alexander, Geo W. Shannon and James Brown, all of Chicago. The experiment began November 29, 1902, The market value per 100 weight at the beginnlrg of the experiment and the Increase of value by May 16, was as folio ws: lot Purchase Value, Fancy $4.75 Choice 4.65 bound for England, where for the nex two months they will compete with some of the best teams John Bull can boast of.
