Marks lost sight of the fellow who hud run ,
and It was not until after seine searching
that ho discovered hU boots sticking out

teat , a S : 'J9 class trot , a Si : : , " > class trot and
thrco match races * for $100 $ a side. The
weather , as compared -with the cold and
gloom of the day previous was perfection ,
anil the track was all that the best horsemen
could wish. The attendance was meagre but
the splendid contests a wakened a great deal
of enthusiasm , and there was inoro money in
siuht than at any previous day of the races.
'J'ho llrst oveut was the completion of the
2Htrot : , The result of the day before hnd
retired all the horses but UelgiaiiMaid , Sntum
L and Dick Dimple. It required two heats to
accldo the contest , llclgiiin Maid had earned
the polo In the last boat , nnd took It in the
lirsthoat yesterday , which was the sixth of
the race. Dick Uimplo second nnd Saturn L
third. 'Iho itttlo maid was the general fav
orite in the pool boxes and with the crowd ,
nnd she provcdhei-self worthy of the confi
dence reposed In her , for she won the heat
without a skip or break , with Dinipla a long
second. She repeated the performance in the
seventh heat and won the race , Dimple second

They pot away after the third score , but Ted
McMahon broke jut after ho had passed
under the wire , When his driver got him on
hisfeot atjuin bo was hopelessly in tlio rear
of llio procession. The horses gathered in a

shouts that arose from the throats of hit

totho ho iglitol 9OUUfoot an exploit which
has bullied such accpmplishcd mount
iiiu cliinhers as Schwatka , Sntoti , Karr
und Gilder. IIo also discovered the
miylitiest glacier in the -world in a
ciuion below Mount St. Klins. With
Kerr wore Prof. Russell of the "United
States geological survey , and six woods
men. The party proceeded up Kettle
river from Yakutat bay to tlio Kettle
ghicior. Following this they cnmo to
Augusta glacier. At the head of the
Augusta glacier they oamoupon a singu
lar sight. Fifteen hundred foot above
the sen level was u small island in the
middle of glacial fltreiims cov
ered with ( lowers and verdure.
They decided to call Iho llttlo
paradises Blossom island. Making' thuir
way over the moraine above the Augusta
glacier , and coming on over u glacier
they called the Hitchcock , after the
scientist , they reached the mightiuM ,
glucior in the world , which they named
the Lucia glacior. This vast body is ten
miles in width and Hews for tweuty-livo
miles , until it falls by a big moraine into
the Baird glucior , which includes all the
north side of Yakutnt bay. It moves
llftoen foot a day , and ii covered with
circular erovieen.
Proceeding up Lucia trlncior " , they
came to what they "called Pinnacle -
naclo pass at its head. This in u
natural puss into tlio interior of
Ahibka across tlio St. Ellas range. They
eroded over tlio puhs and proceeded in
behind St. Ellas. Following up a glac
ier they came at lust to a place Unit
scorned impassable. A wall of snow and
ice barred further progress. By tunnel
ing they gradually made their way
through to u lodge. Fastening a long
repeat the top of tills they managed to
slide down at great peril to the Icdgo
below , from which they , by arduous and
dangerous climbing , vouched a point
9,000 feet ubovo the level of 'tho
HCII and a wlopo of hard snow
loading straight up to tlio Kiun-
mil. llero provisions ran out just us
they yvoro inn fair way to reach tlio
summit. Before they voplonlsliod their
slock violent HIIOW storms &ot in , preventing -
venting nil further advance for tlio .sea
son. They returned to Blossom Island ,
where they limdo elaborate studies of
the mountain and its glaciers.
Kerr is confident tlio crest of tlio
mountain is in American territory , tlio
boundary line crossing the northeast
xlopo uea.1 the summit. As totho height ,
Kerr says lie doubts whether it is inoro
than lU"iK ( ) f ; ot. Between St. Kilns and
Luulu glaciers there nro several other
peaks about twelve thousand feet high.

Tbo ancient nnd honorable history of
beer is receiving coiibidorablo attention
from Gorman wise men just now , says
tlio Now York Siu. | They bavo already
traced It back several thousand years to
authentic Egyptian records of the times
of tlio Paraohs , and have Incidcnliilly
( liseovered that there is nothingneF
under the sun , oven in beer drinking.
Tbo most ancient kind of Egyptian
beer was brewed from Ijarloy , and was
called "hag. " It could not 'liavo been
very bad , for Egyptian maiHiscrints say
it was drunk as freely by the budding
Pharaohs and their friends as by tbo
common people. Kven the pi-iosts of
lumdrod-portalled Thebes were supposed
after death to drink it with their roast
goose in heaven , The most famous beer
city , the Pllson or Munich of the Egypt
of the Humcsos , was Folusinm. In Alex
andria , too , however , { front quantities of
beer wore brewed , winch gees to prove
that Gorinan civilization was not tbo
lirst to discover Iho eloso rolntionsbip
bct\yccn inalt liquors and learning. Con
clusive evidence on this jwlnt is given by
si papyrus manuscript in wbicli Prof.
Jjiitith has recently found tbo text of u
temperance cm-lain Icuturo delivered by
an Alexandrian professor named Aincnc-
inann to Petaura student.
"I have hoard , " said the professor of
the long gene ago , " that you neglect
your studies to go from boor room to
boor- room , Now1 lull yon whoovoi1
drinks beer is disgusting. The odor of
beer drives away from you and callouses
you soul. You delight then to run
sigainsta walk and to break in a ilooi- .
Your reputation is notorious ; it is writ
ten on your face. Do not think of tbo
cup any longer ; forget tlio mug and tbo
accursed hug. As it is you drum on your
stomach daily , you stumble , you fall
upon your stomach. "
In atrabo's limo beer wns called barley
vine , and was drunk generally in Ali > x-
andia. Tbo preparation of burley boor
to take tbo place of wino was supposed
to bavo been taught by Osiris , Several
recent Gorman writers hnvo n theory
that beer browing- was introduced into
