NEW YORK, June 19-An ideal
test of the popularity of racing under
the restrictions of the new anti-bct-ting
law is in prospect for this after
noon on the occasion of the running
for the Suburban handicap, the oldest
and most famous of the great open
races, at the inauguration of the
Coney Island Jockey Club's June
meeting on the Sheepshead Hay
course. Then the extent of the appeal
made by the race itself as a spectacle
will be tried under conditions that
are absolutely new to the patrons of
the turf about New York.
The law, as interpreted by the
police, has been enforced by the po
lice in the closing days of the
Gravesend meeting, as was made evi
dent yesterday when with an attend
ance of estimated 5000 visitors on
the Gravesend track there was not
an arrest for any cause whatever.
At Sheepshead Bay today the con
ditions so far as the crowds are con
cerned will be greatly changed. One
of the richest prizes of the turf, a
race that has held a place for many
years as the most valued and the best
advertised fixture of America, is of
fered in the 25th running of the
Suburban Handicap and on all pre
cedent ,a great public outpouring is
expected. Suburban day through long
established custom holds an estab
lished place in the list of holiday oc
casions, but in the past theer was add
ed attraction of betting. New condi
tions will prevail today, however, and
though one former suburban, that of
Pontiac, 24 years ago, was run with
out betting, there was at least the ex
pectation of public betting as an in
ducement to draw the crowd that
witnessed the race. There is no ex
pectation of open betting for today
for aside from the fact that betting
in any form is prohibited under the
police intertirettion of the new law,
the managers of the racetrack am
the Jockey Club also have issued
strict orders that betting shall not be
permitted and the penalty of expul
sion from the racetrack is threatened
for any violation of the regulation
order by the police, in addition to the
penalty of imprisonment prvided by
the law.
For the racing 15 horses, including
some of the best performers of this
and last season, are named to run,
and the attractions of the contest
promise to be quite up to the best
standards of the great event.

SALEM, Or., June 19. At a confer
ence of a committee of business men
of Stayton and Aumsville, headed by
W. L. Frcrcs, a banker of Stayton,
and F. W. Waters, representing A.
Welch, of Portland, last night, a con
tract was drawn up and signed by
which the people of Salem, Stayton
and Aumsville agree to subscribe
$100,000 in bonds for the building of
an electric line from Salem to Stay-
ton, a dstance of 18 miles.
Welch, who is said to represent
; Eastern capital, promises to begin
building operations within 20 days af
ter the money is raised and to com
plete the line within a year. The
Welch interests already own a fran-
cnise in saicm covering over nye
miles of streets, and construction
work will begin upon the project at
the same time. The survey to Stay
ton, which is the center of the rich
Santiam country, has been made and
most of the right of way secured, and
work is to start on both ends of the
line when the money is raised .. and
placed in the Stayton and Salem
banks. '
AGED MAN DROWNED. '
ABERDEEN, Wash., June 19-The
pitiful death by drowning of John
Conway, the 65-year-old man, whose
body was found in Chchalis River, is
believed by the authorities to have
been voluntary, on account of age,
poverty and loneliness. He is known
to have been making his meagre iv
ing by doing odd jobs for some time,
and his landlady said he had been liv
ing on iu or is cents a day. A purse
was found in his pocket, containing 1
cent. He had no relatives here.

KLAMATH FALLS, Or, June 19.
The case of J. Fritz Moritz for
murder was called this week, as it
always is at each recurring session of
the circuit court for Klamath county,
though the homicide occurred 23
years ago on Sprague river, , in this
county, and it is regarded as certain
that Moritz died some years ao in
his native land, Germany. Moritz was
an elderly bachelor, who owned a fine
stock ranch on Sprague River, and
had it well stocked. He was known
as a man of fiery temper, which had
.. 1 t t r t t
causco mm a worm ot trouoie, so
that he was often in hot water with his
neighbors. In one altercation with
one of the notorious Brown brothers,
who were themselves regarded as
dangerus men, and had figured in sev
eral homicide cases in the early days,
Fritz was shot, but the wound was
not very '.serious and he soon rccov
ered.
His ranch was not far from the res
ervation, and his fiery temper led tq
occasional trouble with the Indians,
though he employed them occasional
ly on the place. One day he quarrel
ed with Peter Showcase, a well-known
young Modoc, who was "a scout dur
ing the Modoc war, and refused to
pay Peter what the latter claimed was
due him for work. This resulted in
an altercation, during which the Mo
dom struck Moritz, knocking him
down. Moritz sprang to his feet arid
ran to his house. The Indian, realiz
ing that the man was going for his
gun, sprang onto his horse and under
took to escape, but had gotten only
50 yards away when Moritz fired at
him with a heavy revolver, killing him
instantly. He was arrested without
delay, was brought before a magis
trate and was placed under a $6000
bond to appear for trial at the circuit
court, but put up his property as se
curity for the amount of the bond,

Maryland Superstitions.
There are superstitious throughout
all the counties of Maryland concern
ing crossroads and running water.
Witches are supposed to make their
home at the crossing of two roads and
to appear there at midnight. One pe
culiar thing about witches Is that they
cannot got across running water, and
a stream of any sort always acts as
a protection to the nightly prowler,
who will follow along tbo bank of a
stream In preference to the roud.
These are some of the things which
