fred Harding, successor to the late
Bishop Satterlee and formerly rector
of Si. Paul's church in this city. '
Today Is the day set apart In the
Protestant Episcopal calendar for St.
Paul and was chosen by the Rev. Dr.
Harding as a peculiarly appropriate
day for his consecration In view of
his services for many years as rector
of St. Paul's parish in Washington
and Baltimore.
Presiding at the consecration was
Bishop Tuttle of Missouri, the presid
ing bishop of the church. He was as
sisted by the bishop of New Jersey
and the bishop of Pittsburg, and the
presenters of Dr. Harding for epis
copal honors were the bishop of cent
ral Pennsylvania and the bishop of

CATTLEMEN IN CONVENTION
fleet in Los Angeles to Discuss the
Grazing Industry.
L03 Angeles, Cal., Jan. 26 Ques
tions of great Importance to cattle
men throughout the country, espe
cially in the west, will be discussed
at the 12th annual convention of the
American National Live Stock Asso
ciation, beginning here today and
lasting three days. Hundreds of del
egates, among whom are owners of
some of the biggest of western
i-anches, throng the streets of the
city.
Among the important questions
which will come before the conven
tion will be the proposed revision of
the tariff in its relation to meat,
hides, wool and other products of the
live stock Industry.
It is-expected that the association
will adopt resolutions favoring the
enactment of laws for adequate rail
road service, the furnishing of plenty
of freight cars and other problems of
transportation.
TO STOP HORSE RAGING
Pool Sellers Are Struck by Conster
nation Farms Will Suffer.
San Francisco, Jan. 25. That rac
ing in the state of California is
doomed and that the present season
at the famous Emeryville and Santa
Anita courses will mark the passing
of the "Bport of the kings," is the
opinion of the majority of race .fol
lowers at Sacramento.
The passage of the Walker-Otis
untl-racetrack bill by an overwhelm
ing majority in the lower house has
rpread consternation In the ranks of
he opponents of the proposed law
The bill as passed by the house is
tlmllar to the Humphreys anti-race'
track bill which has suppressed pool
selling in New York. The poolsell-
rs in California will be allowed 60
days in which to wind up their af
fairs from the time the document Is
signed by the governor..
The effect of the closing of the
acetracks in California will be wide
ly felt. The county fairs, at which
trotting meets are annually held in
various parts of the state during the
summer months, will be forced to
abandon these events. The great
breeding farms which have made this
titate famous the world over, will re
ceive a death blow.
In the event of the closing of the
racing establishments In this state
It is fairly certain that racing will
be shifted to Nevada or Lower Call-
lornla.

A southern clergyman tells the fol
lowing story:
After the morning sermon one Sun
day he bad read the notices for the
week and then announced the closing
hymn number so-and-so. At that mo
ment one of the deacons came down the
aisle, and the minister paused to bear
what he bad to say, which was that
the pastor had forgotten to give notice
of a meeting of the ladies of the con
gregation. Accordingly the divine gave the no-,
tlce. apologized to the congregation for
bis forgetfulness and then again an
nounced the number of the hymn and
proceeded to read It His feelings and
those of the congregation may be Im
agined when he began:
