EXCITEMENT IS PROMISED Horses Are Said to Ijoso Their Heads aa Well as Spectators and Often Run Away Pasadena Finds Them Popular. Though the small boy has been de prived of hts mystical "nigger-chasers" and torpedoes and otner Fourth of July noise-making apparatus, an equally ex citing time awaits him at the Country Club en his country's birthday, for E. F. Kohler. of Pasadena, has completed ar rangements for some real chariot racing, not of the circus type, hut with horses trained for that purpose only, and not hitched to moving vans after the race is run. ' These chariot races have become an annual feature of the Pasadena Carni val of Roses, held January X. The re vival of the Roman sport came about through the efforts of Charles D. Dag get in 1904. then president of the Pssa dena Carnival. He had about reached the end of hts resources for exciting affairs and in despair hit upon the plan of staging real old-fashioned races that used to make the Romans howL He had Just read "Ben Hur," and drew his Idea from the chariot race depicted there. Pasadena owns a park where these races are staged and other events given. The parades and other expenses of the next Tournament 01 noses are paid for with the proceeds. Each year the biggest paying event is this chariot race. Although they have been staged an nually now for seven yesrs they sun thrill thousands. The Roman chariot idea is carried out In every detail. There are four horses attached to each of the spring-less rum bllng carts. The time for the events Is fast, the mile always being negotiated In less than two minutes. The best mark for the event is six seconds less, but because of the fast track at the Country Club this mark Is expected to go. At Passdena the crowds grew frantic over the race, for there is real danger, which makes excitement in the course about the oval. The horses also get excited and often run away. Besides the chariot races, the world's champion cowboys, Jason and A. J. Stanley, will give an exhibition of fancy riding, broncho busting, roping, relay and pony express racing. Jason Stanley is the holder of the diamond medal, presented at the Pendleton Roundup last year for the best showing. His brother won the golden belt at the recent California Rodeo, having the highest number of points in cowboy sports. Both are ready to defend their titles- against all comers. den Rural District, In his annual re port, states that he has given much attention to watercress beds, "as the typhoid bacillus almost invariably gains access to the human body by the digestive track among other ways by the eating of watercress. The water supply to these beds." he says, "has from time to time been bacterlolog lcally examined, with a view to ascer taining the presence or otherwise of abnormal Quantities of the bacillus coll. "It ' is possible . that some cases of typhoid fever have originated among the workers in the water-cress beds, and It Is as well to point out that pos sible infection may not be actually de rived from the water supplying these beds, which may or may not be sewage polluted, but where the beds are in the vicinity of roads and footpaths it is possible that material may be washed therefrom into the beds themselves or Into the water supplying the beds. -A more important point is the pos slble contamination of the beds ow ing to the habits of the workers on them, or of the persons generally of the hawker class who hang about the beds while the water-cress is be ing gathered for them to ' take away to bunch and sell in the poorer- streets of the locality of London. If one of these gatherers or hawkers Is suffering from a mild or ambulatory attack of typhoid fever, it is possible for him to contaminate the water supplying these beds through what may be deposited in the vicinity. "It should be clearly understood that It is extremely advisable that any per sons buying water-cress should not only have some idea as to where It was grown and through whose hands It may have passed, but should assure themselves before eating it that it has been thoroughly washed in,, running water."

AMOUNT IS BIGGEST EVER Semi-Annual Statement Issued by Treasurer Adams, Who Declares Financial Condition Is Best or Record. The semi-annual report of City Treas urer Adams for the first six months in 1912, ending with the close of business yesterday, shows a balance on hand in the city treasury of $4,108,959.76. This balance is the largest ever shown at the end of a 'fiscal period. The financial status of the city, de clares Treasurer Adams, Is better than at any time in its history. Receipts Are Liarger. During the last period the receipts exceeded the receipts of the correspond ing period last year by about 1800,000, while the expenditures were about 11, 000,000 in excess of the expenditures for that time. With the exception of about 9100,000 of taxes to be turned into the treasury later in the year, the balance on hand represents the amount with which the cltr will have to conduct its business for the next half year. City Treasurer Adams estimates that the needs of the city during the coming half will be taken care of by the bal ance now on band, with a slight bal ance left over with which to begin the new year. Bridjce Fond Large, , There are several big items of ex pense that will have to be met in the course of the year.
