Tha Fastest saiIer.

New YORK, Oct. 10.-The steam yacht
Vamoose, whose owner believes she is
the fastest craft afloat, gave an exhibit
tion today. Her steam steering gear
became disabled and she did not make
a record. She was sped over a meas
ured mile and her best time was 2 min
utes and 80 seconds-fast, but not so
fast as has been claimed.

WORLD OF SPORT.
La TOSca Runs a Mile in
Record Time Of 1897.
Frank NJ. Defeats Wanda and
Silas Skinner.
Hummer Wins the Pacing Race
in 2:18.
Santa Catalina, Santa Anita Two
rrH Year-Old, Wins at Chicago-The
San Franciscos Look Like
Pennant winners.

This paper has consistently main
tanned that La Tosca was the speediest
three-year-old flly of the year. Yester-
dav she further demonstrated her claim
to the title by running a mile over
circular track in :391s, thus equaling
the record by the California horse Ra-
cine. La Tosca is by st. Blaise, and was
bred by the late August Belmont.
xx*
The 2 1T trot at San Francisco yester-
day must have been sad blow to the
talent. Even the speedy Wanda could
not get in a heat. 1t will be remem-
bered that the writer of this department
drew attention to the fact that Frank
Al. was not quite geared up for bruis-
ing race at Sacramento and his victory
was not altogether surprise to
the writer. If Frank M, Wan da,
Silas Skinner and Mckinney can be
brought together for a race at the COM
1ng Los Angeles meeting it would be the
crowning event of the year. There is
only half a seconds difference between
the record of the quartette. The best
conditioned horse on the day Of the
race would win, but wouldn't the talent
have picnic at guessing the winner?
x*x
Nelson made the mistake OF his life in
trotting his stallion against Allerton and
especially in driving himself. 1t is
doubtful whether Nelson can beat Aller-
ton in three in five race, but with
Doble handling the line the Maine stall
lion would have given the sensational
five-year-old an argument. Nelson is
about forty pounds over the required
weight, and is anything but general.
Just think of any man driving horse
in heat race to the first quarter in the
first heat in 32 seconds. This was a
suicidal pace, and it is the pace that
kills even with the top sawyers.

Ahont Lem Year.

February, 1892, will have twenty-nine
days; in other words, 1892 will be leap
year. The rule is that all years whose
figures, or date numbers, are divisible
without remainder by four are leap
years, excepting the century years,
which are leap years only when they are
divisible without remainder by 400 For
instance. 1900 was not leap year, and
1900 will not be, but 1000 will be. New
