JUAREZ, Mexico, Nov. 29.—There
is at least one American institution
which in spite of bandits, de facto
governments and disputes regarding
the status of Gen. Pershing’s punti
tive force, will flourish the same as
usual in Mexico this winter. Beginning
with tomorrow, the Juarez Jockey
club, backed by American capital, will
open its annual 100 or more days of
racing.
To place the sport of horse racing
on a more firm footing and to elimin
ate the danger of a bad reputation
through the wrong sort of gambling
I on the races, books will be replaced
■ at this meet by parti-mutual machines.
Race track followers believe the “iron
men” are the best bookmakers to be
obtained and expect the machines to
do much toward boosting the Juarez
stock.
Juarez, th equaint old city across
the Rio Grande from El Paso, has
changed governments many times
since the track was opened,( but every
year has found the Jockey club pur
suing its business, regardless of ma
chine guns, rifles and cannons. The
city has been held at different times
by Porfirio Diaz, Francisco Madero,
Victoriano Huerta, Francisco Villa
and Venustiano Carranza, but none of
them threatened to put a stop to the
racing, although plants in other sec
tions of the republic have been shut
down.
Harry F. Breivegel, assistant man
ager of the track, has arrived here
from Laurel, Md., where Maryland
racing recently held forth, and is ex
pecting the most successful meet in
the history of Juarez racing.
Col. M. J. Winn, manager of the
track, anticipates a big boom at the
local course since it has been deter
mined to put in pari-mutuals instead
of the bookmaker. He believes it was
these,machines which saved the sport
in Kentucky and expects them to do
the same here.
More than 200 horses have been
shipped here from the northern tracks.
Juarez is said to have lost money at
its last winter meeting, but this is not
preventing horsemen from shipping
their steeds here for this winter’s af
fair.

SUSPECT EXISTENCE OP
JUNEAU DOPE RING
(Juneau Empire.)
A member of the Jgneau police
force who wishes his name kept secret
in order that he may work the more
effectively, is on the trail of what he
believes is a ring of opium smugglers
and dealers operating in and around
Juneau.
In discussing the case with an Ice
worm reporter last night, the officer
said:
“I first had my suspicions that there
was dope procurable in Juneau when
I read some of the “opium dreams”
which have been appearing in the Dis
patch columns of late. The articles
referred to were wonderfully written,
adorned with a multiplicity of adjec
tives and seemed to reflect a mind full
of beautiful, if sometimes melancholy,
visions. I recognized the influence back
of those articles as that of some pow
erful drug and brain stimulant.
“Later I learned that one of the
Dispatch reporters has spent some
time in the Hawaiian Islands, where he
according to his own admissions, fre
quented Chinese tea houses and res
taurants and was addicted to eating
Chinese dishes. It occurred to me that
such a man might enjoy other Chi
nese luxuries and delights besides
birds’ nest soup and sharks' fins.
“There was nothing definite upon
which to base my suspicions, however,
until I took up the paper the other
morning and read a most extravagant
rhapsody praising the view from the
court house steps at midnight in a
snowstorm. At the end of this article
appeared the writer’s excuse for being
in such an outlandish place at that
hour. He claimed to have been there
giving a music lesson to a Chinaman!
“Now we all know that the only
Chinaman in town is Chinese Joe and
everyone knows that he always goes
to bed at 8:30; so that we know he is
not implicated. So I concluded that
somewhere in Juneau is a mysterious
Chinaman or probably several in hid
ing and that they are carrying on a
traffic in opium or some similar con
traband drug. I am sparing no ef
forts to unearth the hiding place of
the dope dealers.”
