THE FIELD UNDER WAY.

Many plans have been suggested, but
none have been put into practical use,
and to-day the thoroughbreds are sent
away by the flag or the drum just as
they have been since the birth OF racing.
Some starters have different methods,
but the main object Of all Is 10 get the
horses and their riders under control.
After that IL IS matter OF opportunity.
and ability to take advantage OF said
opportunity. Mr.. Edward Forbes, Of
Flatbush, Long Island, thinks he has
solved the starting problem pretty Ell
fectually by the patenting OF a swing
ing gate OF wire and timbers,
which is lowered before the horses
az the start, and is raised when
they are punched, so that all will
have an equal chance. The starter In
his box signals TO the man working the
gate when he is ready, and drops the
flag as the gate swings upward. Ac-
cordinz to NJ. Forbes ideas, the horses
will 90 away on even terms. This Is
pretty on paper, but there are any num-
Der OF horses on the turf, very valua-
Bile for racing purposes, but OF such
Mighty temperaments ludt tuey nave w
be handled in the most gingerly man
ner. They break with the other horses
at the start, but will either swerye or
stop outright before taking half a
dozen strides. What would be the ac-
tions OF such horses as Little Minch,
Pessara, Belle b., Adventurer,
and host Of others that
could be named, when there
Is barrier swinging before
them, under which they are asked to
run, when they behave in this manner
on a track that is clear and has little or
nothing to arouse their devIltry. II Is
a question whether any Of the horses
named would not be left at the post
four times out OF five. Again, there
are horses that break away from the
post with a mad rush, utterly indiffer-
ent as 70 their course. The result OF a
collision with the gate can easily be
imagined. Messrs. Caldwell and Rowe,
the leading starters, say that in their
opinion the old way Is the best.
