Special to The Journal. NKW ROSS, Aug. 11.—The third day of the races was witnessed by nearly 1,000 people. The 3:"0 pace was exciting. There were eleven horses to start and it took much scoring ts send them away, but when they got the word they went arouud the turn with
Coon Holler in the lead, while several were left to bite the dust. Coon Holler won the heat and the entire field came inside the flag, but the second heat found two behind it, and later more went out. The old Coon,won iu straight heats. Coon Holler D. M.

Time—2:26W, 3:23*4The next event of the day was the 2:35 trot. Prince Gould sold as favorite and the '"bookies" were handling coin with a scoop when they were started with Prince at the pole Around the turn went the old road horse and he did the same thing three times, winning the race. He is years old and was never tracked until this spring. He is a sure foot horse and won the Tuesday's green trot, and to-day won the 35 trot. The summary is as follows: Prince Gould 1 Propeller Maud Halbert Western Boy -2 Geo. Sprague 8 Alto

Benton Wilkes Young Artemis 0 The free-for-all pace was the fastest race of the meeting and the track record of 2:21% was broken in the second heat. Bridona was selling as favorite with some odds. After some scoring they were sent away with Pearl L. in the lead, which place she held till the three-quarter pole was reached, when Reward J. made splendid march and out footed Pearl to the winning b3" a length. Reward in the second heat lost on a bad break and never came to the Bridona. who seemed to still be favorite. In the last two heats Reward J. was never headed, winning in slow time. Sum mary:

Fri
J. \V. Foster, of Montclair, acted as starting judge in a good manner. Wilbur Cooley, an old startingjudge and Col. Heath were here Friday. .James McLaughlin, of IndianapO' lis. a driver, was among our horsemen Friday.
Broad Davis was robbed last night of a gold watch and 82. His pants were cut to pieces. They failed to get his pa per money in another pocket.
The association is paying SO cents on the dollar. This ends the New Ross association as far as the Western Asso ciation is concerned. There is some talk of reorganizing the fair.

OUR NEXT CONGRESSMAN.
A Candidate Worthy of the Confidence and Support of All.
Indianapolis Journal: There were so many conspicuously fit men f»r Congress urged for the nomination in the Eighth district Republican convention Thursday that it seems a pity that two or three more could not have been nominated with the successful aspirant,
the Hon. George W. Faris. In Mr. Faris. however, the Republicans have a candidate who is worthy of the confidence and support of all men in the Eighth district who have had enough of Clevelandism and who now want change. Mr. Faris belongs to the younger element of the party, for whom this seems a most favorable sea tin, so far as] Indiana congressional nominations are concerned.
Rockville Journal: The Republicans of the Eighth Congressional District met in convention, at Terre Ilaute, on Thursday last, and nominated George W. Faris, of the Prairie City, as our standard bearer. The convention was unusually large, earnest and entliusiastic and the contest for the nomination was spirited. This was to be expected in that it was generally conceded that the nominee, whoever he might be, would be triumphantly elected And so it will be if the Republicans of the district do but their reasonable duty.
Lafayette Courier: George W. Faris has been nominated for Congress by the Republicans of the Terre Haute district, lie ought to be able to get around lively enough to defeat Brook shire, his Democratic opponent, whose services as a national legislator have been confined principally to the ardu ous duty of drawing his salary and to the making of an occasional motion to adjourn.
NEW QUESTION RAISED.
Something for 1'olitielans to I'uzzle OverTrustees and Assessors.
It has been proposed that the Republicans and Democratic committees join in an agreement that two sets of township trustees and township assessors be elected throughout the State next November. The last legislature on the 2d of March passed a bill changing the time of electing township officers from April to the general election in November. and eyery four years thereafter. It is maintained by attorneys who have given the subject some thought that by the change in the law there are created two terms for trustees and assessors—a short term and a long term. The trustees and assessors elected this fall will, under the provisions of the law take ollice next August. It is maintained that the terms of the trustees and assessors now in office will expire ten days after the election in November, and there is a vacancy between the date of the expiration of their terms and the date fixed on which the newly elected men shall take ottiee. The proposition under consideration by the two committees is that there shall be nominated by both parties candidates for this short term.
Attorney-General Smith has been asked to furnish an opinion on the subject. and it has been proposed that he be joined in the opinion by William A. ICetchain, the Republican nominee for attorney-general. Mr. Smith says he does not believe there is any necessity for the election of men to fill in the time between this coming November and the following August. "I am willing to join with Mr. Ketcham in an opinion stating what the law is," said he, "but 1 do not propose to agree to any recommendation as to what the State committee shall order."
Mr. Smith says it seems to him that the trustees and assessors now in ollice can hold over until the second Tuesday in next August.
He cannot see why the State committee should want to elect a set of short term officers unless it is that the party managers believe the nomination of two more sets of candidates will put more interest in the campaign.
Band Concert.
The band will give its regular concert this evening. Programme: Marcli—Swaunanoa Thayer Overture—Mignonette Beyer Andante Waltz—Clara. Pettee Baritone Obllgato—Cassandra I'ettee Schottlsebe—Pretty as a Pansy Christie Serenade—The Brides PetUie Marcli—Greeting to Uangos Hall

ALMOST DROWNED.
Mrs. R. V. Hunter Has a Narrow Escape at Lake Maxinkuckee.
The following from the Terre Haute Express will interest the many friends of Rev. Hunter and family in this city and county:
Mrs. R. V. Hunter, wife of the Rev. Dr. Hunter, of the Central Presbyterian church, had a narrow escape from drowning at Lake Maxinkuckee this week while bathing. She sank beneath the water the second time when rescued by her husband, who was also in the water but some distance from where the accident happened. A number of other Terre Ilaute ladies were standing on a pier and were badly frightened when Mrs. Hunter went down in the water the second time. The accident happened by Mrs. Hunter falling on her back and becoming excited. The water was only up to her waist where she fell, and as she had been splashing around for some time her danger was not at first realized by Mr. Hunter when she sank below the water. After she was rescued she felt the effects of the accident for some time.
