Gus Krock is a pitcher Of considerable
ability. He halls from Milwaukee and did
his first professional pitching In 1885 for
tho Oshkosh club, of the Northwestern
league. He did not play In many cham
pionship games, but showed up well In the
few that he participated in. During the
season OF 1887 he pitched In forty-three
championship games and ranked second in
western league, with a percentage of .25l
hits made of him. Chicago noticed his
fine work In the pitchers box and signed
him for the season OF 1888. He took part
in thirty-nine championship games and
led all the Chicago pitchers In the percent
age OF hits made and ranked eighth OF the

Little 'Pikey" Barnes, one of the best
of the mites OF the saddle, wears the black
and red Maltese cross OF the Baldwin
stables this season. and he gets 5000 for
doing It, with the privilege OF outside
mounts when the Santa Anita stable has
nothing starting. Barnes income Is vari-
ously estimated at from $4,000 to $4,000
per year. he Is the most sensational rider
on the American turf. In two races, the
Futurity and the Junior Champion, he
landed s61, s95, an unprecedented amount.
BE Is the youngest OF the first class riders
and is especially valuable on account OF
his ability to train Off flesh. He combines
in his riding the best qualities OF half q
dozen great jockeys. Like Murphy he is q
great judge OF pace and his finishes are
equal to those Of Garrison. Pikey's integ-
rity has never been questioned.
George Anderson, 1.-The Spider" as he is
generally called, is a rider of great ability,
and resembles Barnes in appearance and
color. Anderson is II years old, and can
ride easily at los pounds. He has ridden
for the well known stable of Davis s. Hall,
the Maryland turfmen, for several seasons
and again sports their colors this year.
Anderson has won many races with Bess,
Biggonette, Patrocles and Orifamme. One
of his most sensational wins was on Patro-
Giles, at the Washington meeting, when so
to / was laid against him, and he paid
over $3.50 for S in the mutuels, Anderson
also rode Badge last year when that game
little horse ran a mile in $40. He is a very
daring rider, and will hustle his mount
through the ruck next to the rails at the
imminent risk of scraping the skin of his
legs Anderson is in demand this year,
and will undoubtedly score his share OF
the wins.

Edward Reading, popularity known as
"The Soldier" was born at Mansfield, o.,
In 1884. He entered the army in 1889 as a
musician, and at the present time is the
Fort Omaha, Neb. He commenced riding
under the instruction of John S. Prince.
His first race was 100 miles against w. II.
Knapp. He covered the distance in Eve
hours and forty-nine minutes and set his
own pace. This record Is considered first
class for a beginner. In 1889, at Chicago,
in the great free for all" race, he defeated
such riders as Knapp, Morgan, Prince.
Shock, Nelson and others. 1t was a forty
eight hour race. and be covered e9s miles.

THE oARSMEN.

The cablegram from Sydney, N. s. w,
reading that a sculling match has been ar
ranged between Peter Kemp, the Austria
liam, and William O'Connor, of Cansda,
impresses aquatic circles that O'Connor
has ut last carried his point in rowing
some one there, even though it has taken
him nearly two months to do it. The actions
of the Australian oarsmen have looked as
though they did not wish to run the risk
of having the championship leave that
country.
In the opinion of Edward Hanlan, the
coming champion oarsman is Mclean, the
Australian, who measures forty-four
inches around the chest, and, as Hanlan
says, is one of the most powerful ~scullers
that ever sat in n boat.

George Edward Andrews, Familiarity
known as Ed" Andrews, is the brilliant
outfelder Of the Brooklyn club OF the
Players league. Ed was born thirty-one
years ago at gainesville, o., and first
played ball while attending the Western
Reserve college, Hudson, o. His first
professional engagement was in 1889 with
the Elyria club, OF Akron, o. In 1888 he
played but two months with the Toledos
and devoted the remaining months TO the
study of ~stenography. In 1884 he Joined
the Philadelphia club of the National
league as captain and second baseman. He
proved n complete failure at second base,
but Manager Harry Wright felt so sure
that he had the making of c first class
player in him that he retained him for the
next season and then put him in the field.
A change for the better was experienced in
the first week and before the season was
over he had established a great record for
himself both in batting and in fielding. He
is one of the speediest and most daring
base runners in the profession and his
sprinting abilities enable him to catch
mani a hy ball, which with a slower out
fielder would be a safe hit. He Is without
question one of the best general players In
the profession today, and besides his field
ing abilities is a hard hitter and reliable.
He is 5 feet s inches In height, and weighs
about l60 pounds. Last season he played
with the indianapolis team with great
credit to himself.

The Man Who Bested Reading In tbs
Great Race at Omaha

Once more Jack Prince has demonstrated
his right to championship wheeling honors.
Recently, at Omaha, Neb., he defeated Ned
Reading, the phenomenal soldier rider, in
a bruising race of six days, riding eight
hours a day, for the championship of the
world In defeating Reading he won what
was undoubtedly the greatest contest that
has ever taken place in the history OF cy-
cling. The scene at the finish was a very
exciting one, and the enthusiasm of the
crowd was at fever heat, Up to the last
lap Reading WAS in the lead, but In the
stretch he was unable TO stand the pace
and Prince crossed the line first, amid the
widest excitement, winner of the worlds
championship by half q wheel. The total
distance covered WAS ZIG miles and Q laps.
Immediately after the race Prince an
nounced his desire to meet any man In the
world for a fortyeight hour race at 5000
a side, the winner to receive all.
John Shillington Prince, the worlds
champion long distance bicycle racer, was
born at Birmingham, England, and is 81
years OF age. He commenced riding at Il,
and two years later entered the profession
al races. His greatest achievement prior
to coming to America WAS the defeat of
JACK Kean and Fred Cooper, OF Sheffield,
the champions of England. The race at
that time was for one mile, and the best
time was 2;52, which at that date was the
best record for a mile race. In 1880 he
came to America to race against Woodside,
the champion OF Ireland, and Decivy, the
champion of France. He defeated both
on all distances from one TO twenty miles,
and at hat time he made the best
records to hat date. He is the only
one who ever defeated Harry Higham, of
England, who held the champion seventy

]. S. GRANT, Phi. G.,
OF Philadelphia College Of Pharmacy,
Ap0thecary, a South Main st.

The Old Year has drawn to close,
and with the beginning of the New Year
we wish to thank the public for their
patronage and recognition of our efforts
to do our full duty. We are fully con-
scious that it is to them that we owe the
unexpected success of the past year, in
which our business has been more than
doubled, and we can only regard it as
new evidence that our business maxims
are such as to cause our customers to
have confidence in US and attract those
who are cautious in dealing with any
Pharmacist until they have become fully
assured of the nature and extent of his
business principles. In our dealing with
the public we realize that the most scru-
puious care and honesty are paramount
in Importance. If these are virtues in
all ordinary business transactions, they
become sacred duties in Pharmacy, and
without them no one can be true Phar.
nacist. The health, maybe the lite, OF
those dealing with the Apothecary de-
pends upon them. We consider it our
most sacred duty to shun authorizations
and spoiled as well as inferior drugs.
They constitute an evil from which Phar-
macy suffers no less than the public. The
evil is not new one, inaugurated in late
years; it has existed as long as there
were men whose cupidity was stronger
than their sense of Justice, and it will
doubtless continue as long as there may
be men with conceptions Of business so
vague that they expect to purchase gold
for the money value Of dross. There are
no other moral principles required for
transacting Pharmaceutical business
than are necessary for any ther business.
Unwayering integrity that remains unin-
auenced BY the visions ofgold along the
road of questionable or deceitful prac-
tices is the only foundation for success
that is worthy the name; it is SO in
every pursuit. and more particularly in
Pharmacy, where as matter Of neces-
sity il must be combined with constant
vigilance in all directions, so as to secure
all possible safeguards.
These are the principles which we have
endeavored to live up to, and to which
we trust our increasing success is due.
We hope our former patrons will show
the same kindness toward US in the fi-
ture that they have in the past, knowing
that no action OF ours will ever make
them regret n continuance OF their IA
vors Yours truly,
Us. GRANT, Ph. G., Pharmacist.
