June 21 The Derby! the Derby! That ha been the cry for week, culminating today in the most exciting heiirt breaking events I ever expect to witness. . Religion, silence, art, nnante, commerce, evin tin- great waiters' strike were of secondary Im portance. If one went to a manufacturer of clothing on bualnss, Iht first question w not "What can we do for you 7" but "Have you come to see theDerby?" In the restaurants a waiter would come up and ask, not "What will you have' but "What favorite do you backT and the town was Derby mad. . Through the courtesy of one of the lending clothing manufacturers I whs permlt'ed to wltner this great event from a reserved box and I enjoyed this the first horse race 1 ever saw In my life, from a splendid point of vant-ago. A curly as I o'clock this morning ve hicles of all kinds, crowded with rlcWy attired vomm anl splendidly dressed men could be seen wending their way to the n0y spot, th Mecca of every true sport. Uy noon every point of vantage was preempted and an fhour before the first race :ha park was so crowded that those who paid $2 admission fee then might as ell have bren at Chinook as far as seeing anything of the races was concerned; men, women and children pushed their way back and forth In their wil l effort to get a view, but a fly might aa well ry to emerge from a bar rel of glue; once wedged into a pluce, they had to stay, breath short breaths and wait. Estimate aa to the number present vary from 70,000 to loo.ooo. Fifty-nlnj bookmaker plied their vo cation cn the ground, each set wear. Ing great algns on their top piece cal ling theme-lvea the "Elk club." the "Wabash club," etc.; one set not for from where I .vas, named themselves the "Astoria club." Thousands of people of ill sections and stationa in life struggled to get near one of these lube to pi ice from one dollar to thous and on their good Judgment (7). Pa- lr money was held high by the (eng of thousands and thrown Into the bot tomless pit as If it were so much ciga rette pnpr. Clerks, waiters, wage. earners of all kinds, barely able to sup- ort themselves or their dependents. saved and scraped for months to feed this hungry pasaiott and to satisfy Inslduous desire to get rich suddenly. I would not have made the effort t get near one of the stands tor a buu di-ed dollars. Men and women drenoed In their beet, pushed their way; some of them having to come back unable to get neur enough hatless, colorless, hair niuwied, face flushed and clothes all wrinkled I hwve neen saner people at the asylum at Salem; craxy is no name; they were stark mad. At 2:30 a bugle sounded and from puddocks emerge seven thoroughbreds to beitln the first race. Ah, here comus Glassful). J'he ia tha wtnncr;" "look at Manaeku, proud and beautiful he Is; good enough for my. dough." "Don't you believe It Kslwnln Is "the boy to do the trick." -and so the comments come thick and' fast; Well It don't matter ho Isn't In It anyway. ' tft.irter Dwyer gets them Into line a hush comes over the vast multitude; necks stretch aa If on rubber pivots. Look! They're off! v '; . Cheers, yells, screeches,, thunder! They race by the half-nille post, Mon ul:n In .the lead. "I told you so," eronmed a big red-faced fellow; 20 to 1 well, I guess what's that Beaumonde timing to the front; hip, hip, aud now they come like a flash, Gregor K. a length ahead and the winner! Beauor monde second and the fnvorltea Glens full and Monarka way in the rear; the mob oncers and another rush for the booths td place bets on the second event.- ' - The second Is a race for six furloughs a repetition of the first excitement and Alan A. Dale wins. But the third, the derby for 185,000 stake Is the race. Hope, expectancy prayers even were all centered on tills race; there were 22 entries but three were withdrawn, leaving 19 fleet-footed hlgh-splrlted animals to compete 4or the year's honor and for the dough. Now the trumpet calls them to line up, but isn't that a pretty sight! Necks crane, o.ve pop; all are on tiptoe, The silence Is unbearable they're off; they are off a dancing, singing, delirious army,' "Oh,- please , Madam., take off your hut, I must see this.

Who ald crnxy, why thl multitude Is Incohtble of grinn craxy; they have no reason, no will; they are Just 7&.000 dummies. A saddle mads of choicest flowers is placed on the back of "The Picket." a band strikes , ip a lively air and the mass wakes from Us trance. ; "Oh, yes, that's. Picket tho horse that won." Now the crowd Jumps over fences, from the grandstand, the club house, the bleachers, from everywhere they swarm around the winner; they pet him, hug him, kiss him. The horse etitnd as 't he understood and enjoy ed It all; gluing eyes, nostrPs distend. ed, nerves quivering, but proudly rais ing his he nd he acknowledge the con gratulations tht noblest animal on th ground s-iier than hi allered super. lors, two-U"?d masters. A blanket Is thrown over him; Jockey Helgesen, wearing a white shirt, black sash and red cap, 'bow acknowledgements to the cheers and leads the '01 hero to the paddock; a lone "bugle plays "A Hot Time." and everybody laughs, some embrace hysterically, utter sounds be tween sobs of Joy, and half the people leave for home; happy and satisfied that tliey have seen the greatest 1 V2 mile rare ever run time 2:33. I tried to extract a lesson from these scene and It seem to me that some good may be learned even from this ex perience; especially to young men should I "ecommend to learn from the mute -acr patience and courage; ( pa tience in winning the race of life and courage to ove'vorw obstacles. Be a "thoroughbred." Get in and try. Second; never bet. The favorite rare ly wins. The bookies are not there for their health and the wires of the un inlated are all tinder ground. A twenty In your oo?ket Is worth more to you than a thousand In the other fellow's trouser. The other day I attended a meeting; of the Chlcigo Aerie of Eagle and wai royally received. They initiated 14 bustards and It was 1 o'clock a. m. before we adjourned, winding up with shrimp salad, sandwiches, and light drinks, and -vaklng up with the night mar in the nidst of the second de gree. Of course the boys were good to me, (all Eagles are); but these are more like my own Astoria birds. So long; only a lew days and I will be with you as before, , Smilingly, .. : - r HERMAN .WISE.
