Learning His NIOunt.
The GLOBE Jock" slept with Red
Fox last night. OF course, this account
must be eXparte purely and whatever
the GLOBE jock has to say about his eX-
golden seal of truth. for Red Fox can
lot have his say in the matter. Satur-
day night was filled with one of those
rare harvest moons. For miles and
miles one could peer into space and
see the same beautiful spacious space.
Nothing was so plenty out OH Smelling
road, save the rich ammoniac etfluvia
emanatlng from Red FOX's stable and
rolling itself i'll cloud-form sluggishly
across the open field toward Hamine.
As preliminary to meeting his famous
mount for the Press CLUB Handicap, to
be run tomorrow. the GLOBE jock en-
gagged the caperS of an old, discarded
peter from liver Grove. This beast
straddled in the attitude of the Farra-
gut stutue in New York. With last
lingering adieu to his friends. the
GLOBE Jock" sped deep into shadows

Manoevering circuitously for several
hours, during which time his steaming
pelter was being paralyZed in the prac-

and tumbled down for the night. The
stable boy had told the GLOBE ali about

Baker, the owner. had made a 'pow'ful

were neutrality-suspicious. profanely-
discussed near the water trough. The
mosquitoes were thick and the aroma
worse. The negro race was we'll repre-

none the less accented in various small
conditions which rendered them what
Nye would call de trop. The GLOBE
finally became satisfied that Red Fox
was the ''hOss," and training was begun
forthwith. First, there was to be re-
ductiOn Of ten pounds in weight by
Monday at 4:45 O'Clock. Then there
was the trick of riding the aforesaid
horse; when to let him, the horse, get
in his work, and so on. Then there
was the appointing of executors and
the drafting of the last will and teSta-
ment OF the jock. Some of this process
has been performed. What remains to
he done begins on the race track at 10
o'clock this morning. The ten jocks
will meet in the press stand, and, under
the conduct of Maj. Frank Luhrs, Col.
Frank Shaw, F. W. Brackmeier, j.
j. O'Connor, Col Letcher, Senator
OBrlen, George Baker and few other
gentlemen familiar with the turf, to-
gether with all the jolly stable boys and
thoughtful, SeriouS-eyed trainers, they
will be formally mounted on their re-
spective steeds and carefully, aye vigor-
ously, drilled in the mysteries Of the
track. Festivities will conclude about
noon. One set of vehicles will be seen
running toward Oakland, while another
will deposit the remaining reporters in
the government cOld-stOrage on Robert
street by the sea.
What remains over from today'S prac-
tice will ride in the Press Club haudi-
cap tomorrow, which is positively the
greatest feature ever imposed upon
fun-loving public. Besides running foot
races with d dog, and rowing shell,
swinging Indian clubs and boxing with

against his family fence, the GLOBE
jock has dieted carefully for week and

Stacks Runaway.
J. L. Stack. whom everybody knows
as the genial editor of the Stack Adver-
Using company. and of the American
Home, as an all-round athlete and
around-all Elk, as fellow rare in good
fellowship and lover of rare sport and
Wild adventure, has also entered his
prowess for encounter in the coming
event. To forestall his fellow jocks,
he quietly sneaked off to Lake
Minnetonka Thursday afternoon, hired
a running horse of a man in Excelsior,
aud with the assurance that he would
return the horse III an hour. cantered
