been in progress. Occasionally a rock
passes through the tree and breaks pane
of glass in somebody's residence, which is
unfortunate for the owner of the glass and
for the boy and his companions, as it is the
proper thing for the youths to "leg it, I'M
der such circumstances.
The Breeder and Sportsman has dug up
the following amusing item: Few things
can be more deplorable than the ignorance
of the editor of the -AnglO-American Times.
That journal states that Guy Wilkes. son
of the late George Wilkes, who founded the
Spirit Of the Times, trotted a mile in two
minutes, fifteen and half seconds, at Santa
Rosa, Call If this piece of news came
from a simple English paper it would be
bad enough, but being printed in an Anglo
American newspaper, the offense is I'M
pardonable. There is some satisfaction in
finding the strong faith the English jour
nalist has in the speed of American news
paper men. Who but the son of sporting
editor could cover a mile in 2:15I? And
what climate but California's could bring a
man up to such speed?"
