amusing Incident OF the Caen races is thus de-
scribed by the special correspondent OF the
London Sports7,,an:-The Caen races had their
comic incidents, OF course. The clever trainer
Mr.. III. Jennings, overreached himself, and
again gave way to that irascibility tolerated
every now and then as an excess OF ecceatricity,

rather a more serious manner had not some
frierdly arm linked itself within that OF the
veteran trainer and led him out OF the weighing

show how very slightly he valued them and
their Omnium chances, sent them away. he
was too late, for Baron Seilliere and Mr. c.
Pratt had seen them and put In claim for the
amount for which they were entered. plus the
stakes and entries. There was tremendous
nGDbuD when the clever trainer found he had
been beaten at his own game. He declared he
would not give up the horses, but when the
stewards threatened TO enforce the law he con-
sideIed prudence the better part of valor, yield
ING. however, with very bad grace. He had
long conversation with Baron Seiliere and hts
