Da1y,s Montana Circuit.

Marcus DAILY, the Montana copper
king, has plan for a grand circuit of
his own in the West. 1t is said that
Daily will attempt to organize a circuit
Of trottinE. pacing ard running meet
ings in Montana, to last tie entire sea-

His desire IS to offer not less han $780,
600 in stakes and purses, and thus at
tract the better class of horses from the
entire country. Mr.. Daily says he is
we'll satisfied that a Montana circuit
can be made successful in every way.
and thus do away with the necessity
Of Western owners shipping their sta

money. If organized, the circuit would

the latter being Mr.. Days home, while
it is suggested that Denver and several
other points outside of Montana might
possibly be taken in.

out Of the cold and the original project
of a race between Cornell, Columbia,
Pennsylvania, Harvard and Yale to be
contaminated. Cornells desire to meet
the blue" crew will serve to neutralize
Harvard's opposition. If Yale does go
in, the greatest event in the history Of
Intercollegiate boating will result. The
annual event at New London has been
enough of a gala event, but when three
more crews are added to the list, and
the race transferred to the Hudson,
Pcughkeepsie will doubtless hold such

with difficulty be kept on its keel. The

New YOrk,s Game Laws.

New York state is agitating for
better game law. The Forest and
Stream says:
The reasons demanding such an ac-
ton are two. First, the sale of game
the year around means an increased
destruction for the market in the open
shooting season and q continuous de-
struction for the market during the
closed shooting season. Second, the
open market in New York encourages
in other states the destruction of game
which finds market in New York al
times when in other states sale is for
hidden. The working of the law is de-
structive of the game of New York and
of the game of New York's sister states
1t is wrong which should be righted
at once. The remedy should be pro.
vided without the delay Of a day."

WORLD DOES MOVE.
Scotch Athletes Find Il Definition of
Amateur Not Fair.


Perhaps the most sensible defini-
ton of an amateur yet seen is that
adopted by the conference of Scotch
athletes at Edinburgh during the holi-
days 1t is as follows:
"An amateur is one who has never
competed for money prize, declared
wager, or staked bet, or knowingly
with or against professional for any
prize or in exhibition, or who has never
taught, pursued, or assisted in the
practice of athletic exercises as
means Of pecuniary gain. (2) That
amateurs shall not lose their amateur
status by competing with or against
professionals at cricket, football, or
other games, provided that such COM
petitions form no part of, nor have any
connection with any athletic gymnas-
ium, swimming, rowing, or skating
meeting. 90 That the aforesaid
bodies be recognized each by the other
as the governing bodies Of athletics,
gymnastics, swimming, rowing and
skating in Scotland, and that their re-
spective findings and suspicious be
binding on all the bodies. (D That
three representatives from each body
shall meet in conference in December
Of each year." 1t was agreed that
these recommendations be laid before
the various bodies on the earliest pos
sible date, and that the representa-
tives should meet again in conference
in April to report progress.
Why should an amateur be shut out
for competing with possible profess
SIGNALS in events other than those Of a
professional nature?

venient point, in the certainty that
within specified length of time he will
have an ample income form his cocoa
nuts, which he can either manufacture
into oil on his own plant, or else ship
the nuts in bulk to the butter, oil, cream.
or candle or soapmanufacturers. The
industry is SO far very small, but from
Lake Worth down the entire coast, in
GLIDING the keys, ample opportunity may
be found for successful experiment. The
age limit of cocoanut has never been
discovered.
They have been known to bear for 200
years. In this climate. where they have
never been hurt by cold, where every
thing is conducive to growth and bear
ing, and where choice lands are to be
had at reasonable rates, the industry
should thrive and pay. In addition to
the citrus fruits, pineapples, guavas,
truck, and sponges, the Biscayne Bay
region may yet become the great cocoa
nut-producing center OF the world, wrest-
ing from Ceylon it's longtime champion
ship.
A few acres would suffice for q good
sized plantation, as the trees may be
grown as close together as 20 feet.
Judging from specimens now to be seen
on the bay, planted some fifty years ago
(at Fort Dallas) and on Lake Worth,
planted 20 years ago, south Dade County
is wonderfully we'll adapted to cocoanut
culture. People who have thought OF it
and discussed it, believe money to be in
the industry, especially as the use of
the nut has been so we'll introduced and
so favorably received.
Home grown nuts could be more
cheaply bought by manufacturers, who
have to pay heavy .freights and duties
now. Florida planters could secure all
this, and have a market near at hand.
The use Of cocoanut butter becomes more
general yearly; larger quantities OF nuts
are used, and the prices are good. A
prospecting tour in this district with
such an enterprise in mind would no
doubt pay the man undertaking it. No
harm could arise from investigation, at
least.

CoCoanuts in Florida.

Residents on Biscayne Bay realize
more fully every year the immense value
Of the cocoanut tree. mot only as an orna-
ment, but 90 being of practical value as
we'll, consequently numbers of trees
have been planted within the past year,
NIL along the bay front from Lemon City
to south of Cocoanut Grove, which place
takes its name from the suggestive
growth that beauties it's water front.
The trees at Miami along the river mouth
and bay shore are said to be the Oldest
in the State, and are by far the hand
soonest, their slender, worn boles and
fsathery tops showing to advantage
above and among smaller, less distinct
i've growth. On most of the new places
along the shores these trees have been
planted, and in few years will greatly
augment the beauty of this part of Flor
ida.
AS this country and it's products be.
come more widely known, and residents
are attracted to it, home-builders in a
new region naturally turn to the most
convenient beautifer. This they find in
the cocoanut, well adapted to the soil,
of easy cultivation, of comparatively
quick growth, and OF practical as we'll as
OF artistic value.
Successful cultivation above the Goth
parallel 10 rare, and has been seldom at
tempted, and nine-tenths of the cocoa
nut trees in the United States are to be
found on Lake Worth intersected by the
Goth line. A few have been transplanted
from here to Tampa. A longtime east
coast resident stated positively to
Citizen reporter that he has yet to see
cocoanut tree killed outright by the hard
winter OF 1S94.95. The foliage is sensi-
tive to cold and in this instance even as
fer south as Cocoanut Grove, number
of trees last spring had q scorched ap'
pearancs for some months after the cold.
This has now entirely disappeared. The
trees remain uniniured, and growth
seems uninterrupted.
THE INDUSTRY REMUNERATIvE.
That the cocoanut is q purely orna-
mental tree in Florida. with little or no
commercial value, is the general opinion.
That it's cultivation may be and will be
made remunerative industry is GER
tainty in the minds of many who have
sst out trees with it's commercial value
in view. In course OF time these will be
0 source OF considerable revenue. The
grower quoted above says that he has
never been able to supply the demand
for sprouted nuts at from $40 to SIS per
100. Trees bear from 200 to 500 nuts
yearly, and 80 per cent of the nuts will
spront and grow. The remainder may
bs marketed, dessicated, or preserved at
home prepared in various ways.

grow to any extent. Transplanted they
are OF uncomfortable beauty. Their in
