NOTES.

The judges are entirely too Indifferent
TO the practice INDUCED in by several
jockeys of beating horses over the head
with their whips. 1t does not add any
picturesqueness to the sport, and if some
of the fair-headed brats who are addicted
to it were treated to the same dose it
would probably be found that they and
not the horses were responsible for delays
at the post.
Mr.. Ferguson and his little red recall
flag can't seem TO work in harmony.
There was one good breakaway in the
wo-year-old race yesterday-much better,
in fact, than the final start-but it did not
favor one or two horses IN particular. and
the flag called them back.
Again in the fourth race there was to all
outward appearances splendid break
away, but down came the little piece OF
red bunting and the field came back.
Another delay, and then a start that
suited the hackers of Hohenzollern.
When horses are sent to the post starters
are supposed TO show no favoritism, though
in this country, where the sport has de-
generated to a gamble, such has not al
ways been the rule.

They will have to listen to the whole
thing over and over again to the exclusion
of every other topic so long as the sports
keep dropping into town from the scene
of the late flight of the century"
Charles E. Davies, .'the Parson," Bat
Masterson and Wyatt carp are among the
latest arrivals OF prominence.
Davies, the suave gentleman who has
earned a worldwide reputation as the
manager of athletic and pugilistic stars,
has come here not 80 much to talk about
Ftzsimmons or Corbett as to introd uce
two fighters from whom he expects great
returns.
Bat Masterson, the man who led the po-
lice force at the Carson arena, is here
simply on pleasure jaunt, and may in a
few weeks start out with the Fitzsimmons
contingent on theatrical tour.
Wyatt carp, whose rank decision in the
Fitzsim m ons- Sharkey contest some
months ago added another shin gle to the
roof of his unenviable notoriety, has
come here to report on duty as the ''ex-
elusive" bodyguard of Long Green Law
renee. carp is minus his overcoat, which
was stolen from him in Carson on the day
of the fight.
The two proteges OF Parson Davies are
Bob Armstrong and Jimmy Barry. The
former is a coored man % years of age,
who weighs 100 pounds and stands 6 feet
81 inches in his stockings. He is won
deriul human structure, built on the same
lines as Peter Jackson, whom he resem bles
greatly in features. He is not so clever as
Peter, but he is shifty and is apt in learn
ing. Davies is anxious to get match on
for Armstrong in this City.
The list of eligible heavy weights in this
part of the country is not very promising,
as Van Buskirk and Jeffries are as good as
booked already. Armstrong, however, is
willing to wait for the winner of that en-.
gagement or he will take on Steiner or
even Goddard, Maher, O'Donnell Corbett
or FItzsimmons.
AS Steve O'Donnell has declared him.
self already that he will not fight colored
man and Flzsimmons will not again
enter the prize ring, Armstrong appears to
have poor show OF getting tried out in
California or Nevada.
Il have my return ticket, however, and
| can wait out here for six months" said
Parson Davies yesterday. "If / can't get
good purse here I'll take Armstrong
back to New York and can put him up
against some one there"
Davies is loser 10 the extent OF nearly
$1,000 on Corbett, but he takes his loss
pleasantly as he taps his hand on the
pocket wherein lies his retusn ticket
home.

said. 81 thought he would put up bet

Mr. William Clement of Freeport ILL.,, is a
well-known commercial traveller, and repre-
sents the large Chicago house of Reed. Welsh
e. Lange. In his early lite Mr.. Clement mi
grated TO the breezy West and became cow
boy in Colorado. Aftor DONG as much at cow
punching as he desired, he turned his atten-
his life on the plains undermined once
strong constitution, and rheumatism, liver
aud kidney trouble and dropsy made their
unwelc0me appearance.
The Hot Springs of Arkansas were visited in
the hope OF relief. but he was disappointed,
and SO he took up his residence in Illinois,
and obtained employment as a drummer for a
large house in Chicago that has long since
gone out of business. Physicians were con-
suited both at home and while on the road,
with only pecuniary benefit to the doctors,
for Mr.. Clement grew worse instead OF better,
and constantly had TO lay up for weeks at
time.
1t was then that from reading the advertise
ment in the papers fhe sufeser i,; we the
People and did so.

As usual, when such testimonials are re-
ceived at the Office OF DR.. Williams Medicine
Company they are sent for verifcation to the
leading druggists of the vicinity or other per-
sons in good standing. The above was not an
exception, notwithstanding Mr. Clements ex-
cellent reputation, and the returned reports
certified that all Of the foreeo!ng statements
made to the re porter were strictly true.

with Sullivan and he did not have the
vitality to stand the strain. In a return
match with Fitzsimmons and with the
right training believe that Jim would be
the victor"
The second card Parson Davies has to
play is Jimmy Barry, the cham pion BAN
tam. The little fellow weighs los pounds s
and is considered world beater There
is but one man in his class in this State
who has any license to meet the fastener
with hope of success, and that is An
thony, the little Australian, who has been
here for sonie months and who has so far
been unable to secure an engagement.
Bob Fitzsim mons, Martin Julian and
the remainder of that clique wall reach
the CITY this morning and lnaugurate a
series of exhibitions that will eventually
develop into protracted tour of the
Eastern States.
Jim Corbett, Billy Brady and Harry
Corbett were around yesterday meeting
their friends and sympathiZers.
.'You may state this, Harry Corbett
said in answer to an inquiry. "Jim is still
confident that he can whip Fitzsimmons
and we have s25, 900 ready to put up as a
side wager as soon as the match is made" !"
Harry Corbett paid off the last tickets
sold in his poolrooms In this City and
Carson Yesterday afternoon. He paid out
$1O8, 800 thai had been placed with him
here, and $SS,000 that had been placed
with him in Carson. where the firm s
name was Corbett e. Coleman.
