DORAMDO DEFEATS HAYESJN MARATHON , .... ...... .....,. Italian Runner Showed Much Speed and Great Endurance in Renewal. , - - - -AYES STAYED WITH HIM.
Iab not until the last lap and by tremendous burst of speed that american was outdistanced.
New'Tork,1, Nov. 26. The end of the
most exciting struggle between two tnen ever witnessed la this city, came t midnight last night when 10,000 persons rose and greeted Dorando as the victor In the renewal of the famous Marathon of" the English ' Olympiad. For almost three hours Oorando Pietrl end Johnny Hayes, the game little New York boy who brought victory to the American athletes in the most famous event of the Olympian games, padded about the restricted tanbark ring on which the disputed Marathon was to be re-run. From the Btart it was seen that Dorado, living up to the reputation he made when he last met Hayes, had wonderful speed, and endurance extraordinary in a human being. At the last race he was at one time almost six miles head of Hayes. Last night he was not six feet ahead of him during the running of the 2G3 laps until the last lap, when he spurted, and, with his marvelous speed, sained a quarter of a lap and crossed the finish line this mush ahead of JIayes. The race was run for the full 6 miles.

WAS HAPPY. THRONG Roller Skating Season Opened At the Coliseum Last Night.
ALL WAS IN READINESS.
It was the same old crowd, the same old music, but a better floor and better rollers than ever that featured the opening of the skating season in this city last evening. The weather was slightly too warm for the winter Indoor pastime, but the - crowd was large and everybody happy. The floor was In the best condition it has been since the rink has been opened and that is saying a great deal. During the summer months , the skates have been fitted up anew and new rollers substituted) for those that "were nicked or broken and there is probably no rink In the country better equipped with skates than that In this city. Of course there were numerous spills and plleups. The local skaters persist in going at a rapid rate and accidents are the Inevitable -result.
congress would vote this year to increase their salaries, employment by the government does not seem to have lost'any of its; attractions. Reports received by the civil service commission, show that, at the recent general examinations there were more applications than ever before.
! This rush to get into the service Is
attributed, by some to belief that congress will soon raise the level of civil service salaries, but a safer. opinion, is
that the same old lure of government
employment is still at work and as population increases applications may
be expected to increase.
Whatever the cause, the increase in
applications Is gratifying to those
charged with the duty of providing Uncle Sam with clerks. The larger the list the more opportunities there are for selection, and the government al
ways is in need of capable help.

dependently of any other official con
nection with the city government.
It is believed that the work of the
controller can be done by the city
clerk, that or the city judge by tne
mayor and that of the city treasurer by the county treasurer, thereby sav
ing to the city the calaries of the three officials whose place are to be abolished. It is argued that the board
of public works as at present const!
tuted is not needed. It Is pointed out that most of the work is don by the mayor and the city engineer and that the board really does little more than ratify their acts. Under the present
law there is no street commissioner,
but it is felt that one Is needed and
that he should be a member of the board of public works, along with the
mayor and the city engineer. The citl
tens of Kokomo and several of the other fourth class cities are said to be strong for the change, because it will
save them money.

E THIS WEEK
Wrestlers Who Will Appear plohday Night, Training For Contests. WINKELHOEFER GOOD MAN.
Wlnkelhoefer, Young Beel and Roeber, who will take part In the double header wrestling match at the Coliseum Monday night, will arrive in this city the latter part of this week. Olson
who Is matched to go against the German Hercules, Wlnkelhoefer, will probably not arrive here until the day of the mrtch. Olson is now in hard training at Indianapolis, as he realizes this match will be the most Important he has had this season, not even barren; the match he had with Americus at Baltimore. The (other three principals in the double header are also In hard training. The first match "will be between the two middleweights, Young Beel and Roeber and will start at 8:15 sharp. These two men are regarded among the top rotchers of their class. Wlnkelhoefer is a man of about the same stature of Gotch, the world's champion heavyweight The German Hercules Is the logical favorite in the match, as he is at least twentyfive pounds heavier than Olson and is as quick and skillful as his clever opponent.
Consul Gracy at Tsingtau warns young men against going to China in the hope of finding profitable jobs. Any young man who Is willing to work will, he says, find better opportunities every day In the large American cities. A new process has been discovered In China by which ramie fibre becomes a soft flasse in a few minutes. A company has been formed to prepare the. flasse for general use. and the first shipment will soon be made to Europe.
A very creditable exhibition of Oriental paintings, both modern and ancient examples, was held at the India Government School of Art in Calcutta recently.
The selection of seven groups of ten ears from the corn offered by Wayne county growers for exhibition at the National Corn Exposition to be held at Omaha, Neb., was made yesterday
by Joseph Helms, of Center township,
Mr. Helms is an expert at judging corn, and Is a member of the Indiana committee that has in charge the work
of preparing the state exhibit for the national show. The winner of the prize for the best ten ears of corn receives a prize of $1,000 and a trophy cup worth $1,000. Mr. Helms regards
the chances of the Wayne county
growers as being good. He was very
flattering in his remarks about the
quality of corn placed on display yes terday.
There was not as general response to the call of Mr. Helms for the corn
exhibition as he had desired. How
ever, the offerings made were of bet
ter rank than is usual.
The selections made by Mr. Helms and the gradings placed upon each
were as follows:
El E. Eliason, tnixed corn, 78.7; yel
low, 80; Frank Kuhlman, yellow corn
82.7; John Nicholson, yellow, 79.5
Will Elkenberry, yellow, 78.7; Alfred Harris, yellow, 74; A. D. Bond, white
corn, 71.9; William Threewitt, yellow,
72.8 and J. S. Helms, 86.7. Mr. Helms will also exhibit in a special class a
specimen of the bloody butcher variety, which scores in the neighborhood
of 90.

Francis Galton, who is now eightysix years old, studied surgery in the
old days before chloroform was used,
and says of the Birmingham hospital
"The cries of the poor fellows who were operated on were very characteristic; in fact, each class of operation seemed to evoke some peculiar form
of them. All of this was terrible, but
only at first. It seemed after a while as though the cries were somehow disconnected with the operation, upon which the whole attention became fix

RICHMOND SHOPS
ARE ALL
RUNNING
Great Number Are Now Em
ploying Full Forces "to" Handle Business.
HOOSIER IS PROSPEROUS,
HAS LARGEST PAYROLL IN ITS
HISTORY STARR PIANO COMPANY WORKS FULL TIME WITH SOME OVERTIME.
The shop employes of Richmond had
particular cause to offer up thanks this Thanksgiving day. A year ago this month was a gloomy one to these citizens. Several of th eshops were
closed down and nearly all the others
were working with skeleton forces be
cause of the financial panic. At the
present time these conditions are reversed. Every factory is in operation
and nearly all of them are working with full forces. The Hoosler Drill branch of the American Seeding Ma
chine company now has the largest
payroll in its history, over seven hundred men being at work.
At the Starr Piano works a capaci
ty working force is employed, all the men working sixty hours per week, an average of ten hours per day, and
there is considerable overtime work. This factory has been working on
this basis since the first of last Janu
ary.
The Gaar, Scott & Company and the
Robinson & Company have not their full working forces employed, but this
condition is not the result of the re
cent financial depression. It is the
result of the drought, which has made the spring wheat prospect in the north
west an uncertain proposition. It is
now thought that the wheat outlook is improving in that section of the coun
try, and it is quite probable that next
month or the first of nextyear will find these two big concerns operating with full forces.
At the Wayne Works, the F. & N.
Lawn Mower works, the Dille, Mc-
Ouire Lawn Mower works, the West-
cott Carriage company, the Richmond Carriage company, the Seidel Carriage
company, the Hutton Casket company, the Richmond Casket company, the
Watt & Keelor Casket company and other local manufacturles, nearly ' the normal working staffs are employed
and the business outlook Is reported to
be excellent.
CHURCHES UNITED
FOR THANKSGIVING (Continued From Page One.)
the past year. We should offer gratitude to God in all things.
"All of us here today should offer
gratitude to God for the advancement being made in the cause of temperance. - This is more advanced today
than at any time since the saloons have been established. I do not feel
disposed to criticize Governor Hanly
for the calling of the special session of the legislature. I believe that these
moral questions should be kept out of politics. I do not think that the temperance cause has been materially helped by the clauses that are in the two partiy's platforms. It behoove us to push the battle on to victory.
"One ought to be grateful for the re
cent rain. Men have prayed. Men
have longed for this event and it is
very befitting that we should rejoice
together for this recent blessing. Oh
that men would praise the Lord for his goodness and his wonderful works to
the children of men. "
Tne union services at the First Eng
lish Lutheran church were participat
ed in by the members of that congre
gation, the Second English Lutheran,
the South Eighth Street Friends, and
the St. Paul's Lutheran churches. The sermon in English was delivered by
the Rev. Emerson Harsh, of the Sec
ond English Lutheran church and the Rev. Conrad Huber, of St. Paul's spoke
in German. The services were conducted by the Rev. E. G. Howard, of the First English Lutheran church
and the scripture was read by the Rev
Mr. Keats of the South Eighth Street
Friends church.
In his sermon, the Rev. Mr. Harsh told of the reasons wh thanks should
be given to God. He declared thanks
were due for His great temporal bles
sings, the agricultural blessings, those that have befallen the Industrial world and the institutional development. The
blessings were said to have been
shown in the kindness offered and the guiding hand that has been manifested
In political affairs. The abounding blessings that have befallen the
church of Christ were told of.
The Rev. Sonrad Huber chose for his scriptural reading the first and
second verses of First Timothy, chap
ter 51. His text was as follows: "I
exort, therefore, that first of all sup
plication, prayer, Intercession, and giving of thanks bemade for all men,
for kings and for all that are in au
thority, that we may lead a quiet and
peaceable life in Godliness and hon
esty."
The text was expanded upon and the sermon, which was in German, was a forceful presentation of the spirit of
the day.
Lead, when reduced to a very low
temperature in liquid air, is said to act much as steel at ordinary temper
atures. It will serve as a helical
spring, for example. - Just as iron is soft and inelastic at a high red color, so lead is dull and soft at ordinary temperatures, for it is then already wall en Its way to ba maltad.

BANG OF THE GUN IS JEARD TODAY Many Men Leave the City on Hunting Trips.
The man with the gun was busy today. Nearly everybody enjoyed a vacation and all those with sporting proclivities were out in search for the rabbit and quail. The rain was welcomed by the hunters for more reasons than the material good it did. It laid the dust and enabled the bird dogs to "work" on trails. This Is something the dogs had been unable to do for
several weeks on account of the dry condition of everything. At an early hour this morning numerous vehicles were seen leaving the city and all contained marksmen anxious to try their skill. Others walked, and as soon as the daylight arrived the bang of the gun was heard in fieldrs and woods. The slaushter of rabbits will be great. A party of three men returned at noon and had twenty cotton tails to thf lr credit.
