Father never mgd take to the new fashioned idp He was against the domination by tbe younger generation, against suffrage, against women's clubs, against tbe teaching of French to the children in a word, a natural reactionary, it waa but nat ural, therefore, that father should be come generally known as a back num ber, useful only In bringing home mon ey and- writing checks. - Washington Poet - East Indian Monkey. A naturalist who has traveled in the Bast Indies says: "The effect on the monkeys of man's appearance is most interesting. The expression of their emotions la certainly almost human as they sit and stare at him. coughing and snarling with anger and contempt, drawing back their bends and throw ing the band before the face with a gesture of abhorrence and other move ments Indicative of shocked and out raged feelings. But predominant is the expression of absolute horror, which, coming from those we consider our still degraded cousins. Is to our supe riority very aggravating."

LINCOLN, M. of R. & S. Thrills followed thrills as speeding automobiles shot around the course of the Ingleslde Race Course, on April 24th, in the second and final day events of the successful meet promoted by the members of Islam Temple of the Mystic Shrine. Thehonors of the day were divided between Barney Oldfleld, with nls 200 horsepower Benz machine, and C. O. King, with his Maxwell 30 horsepower stock car. Oldfleld lowered his previous record of one mile to M 5-6, which is a new coast record for the circular track. With the exception of this performance, Oldfleld had to take second place In the list of racing honors, as the world's champion met defeat in both the five and fifteen mile handicap events, and in both races King and his Maxwell were the victors. In fact, King proved tbe surprise of the meet, driving all of his races with much Judgment and taking the turns with his car as close to the fence as did Oldfleld. In the five mile handicap, Oldfleld drove his Knox racer to the utmost, but the handicap was too strong and he could not get the lead away from King. Not only in the handicap events did King and his Max well prove stars of the first order, but In one of the first events of the day, the Ave mile race for cars costing from $1200 to $1600, which was one of the bestmatches of the meet. The time for the Ave mile handicap was as follows: Maxwell, King, 4.40.30; Oakland, Nelson, 4.48.25; Chalmers, West, 4.49.30: Auto Car , finished fourth, and the Knox car, Barney Oldfleld driving, fifth. In the event number eight, ten miles free-for-all handicap, King and his Maxwell again were the winners, the Maxwell's time being u in on J. B. Whiteman & Son 108. Elm Street I 5 O. E. S.
