but his name never fgur ID in them. a
mans associations have much 10 do with
his future, Brown appears to have killed
no one since his soiourn in the East, sId
the latest piece of news is to the effect
that he has been engaged 10 do the START
ing next year at Nashville Highlan /
Park, Detroit Fort Erie Toronto, and
possibly one or two otEer tracks in Cam
ada. His friends here are pleased to hear
of his success.
HIS Lordship, q colt by Rayon d Or
Sallie McClelland, is now tipped as the
coming turf wonder. He was the pet of
the late Byron McClelland and recently
sold Tor 5000. Report says he has already
worked three furlongs IN 38 seconds.
Ii looks as though the Ii orsemen's Pro-
tective association in the East would end
in big tZzle.
The recent request of the Jockey Club
to disband was not needed BY majority
OF the mem bers, in consequence Of which

lad was compelled to pull out 10 set

fast the dead horse was travelling was not
mentioned.
The present starting of J. b. Ferguson

1t never will be as long as he allows boys
10 get length or two back of the barrier

Distinguished Dogs Run
ming at Ingleside This
Week.
An Open Stake Embracing an
Exceptional En-
try.
Interest in the Sport Still Increasing
and Leashmen Gorrespondingly
Lively.

There will be coursing at lngleslde to-
day and tomorrow. II is another open
event and EN- braces an aggregation OF
performers that, for quality, have not been
excelled this year. The local kennels have
all put forward their best stock. Some OF
them Lave brought ont several flyers; and
the kennels of the surrounding counties
are making bid for the stake that should
be hard to beat. The running, as usual,
begins to-day a l P. NJ. and tomorrow at
IL A NJ.
DOminick Shannon, the genial presi-
dent OF the Interstate Club, is daily await
ing the advent Of several new youngsters
and to make room for them is offering
some of his STOCK for sale. The Monte
yuma kennels are also said to have line
out for something beyond the mountains.
]. Traynor's faithful old Flashlig is
being rested up for a few weeks He de-
serves it. For nearly year he as hardly
missed a stake to which he was eligible,
and usually be has landed well up in the
money.
Santa Clara County is making a strong
bid for the stake to-day. Ordinarily,
too, bid from Santa Clara County COM
mands much respect, but OF late the boys
from below have encountered hard luck.
The Curtis dogs have been down with dis
temper since returning from Merced.
Whitneys Theron had 10 be taken out of
training last month for much-needed
rest. And while Portal has escaped acci-
dent and illness, none of Whitney's dogs
have run qaite up to form for several
months.
o. V. Mendenhall's Cricket last Sunday
showed the Advantageous perhaps dis
advantages were better-Of a new method
OF training. His preliminary work was
done IN large cylindrical cage. where,
after the manner of squirrel, it was pos
slole to accomplish miles without tie in
conVenlences Of muddy roads and bsrbed-
wire fences. But CrIckets work when he
nnaIly went 10 the slips was hardly such
as TO ommend the method. He ILst his
nrst course Saturday, and in the consoia-
uon stake Sunday was again beaten in
MS hrst appearances by Playmate.
The Or1ent Kennels have turned over
Uncle Sam to A. h. Brad bury for training.
Bradbury at present IS caring foE a goo ly
quota OF stock, having III charge the string
belonging to he Montezuma kennels, be-
sides a trio of his own.
Coursng continues to find favor with
the hoIsemen. The Sloane brothers sell
dom miss a sunday and with Tod's ad-
vent they anticipate going into The game
as 1t obtains inside the ience. Inis, too,
sid Ragan has already done, having one
grey ound now in his stable and his lines
out for several more.
The candidates seeming most likely to
raise flag in to-iay's rundown are:

ana afford hrst class sport when they are
feeding, but as the water is low and clear
the fishes seek shelter during the day and
feed at night. Del Cooper was The sue
cessiul man of the many men who tried
,or a mess He basketed thirty eight
trout on Saturday evening, much to the
surprise OF anglers who fshed all day
without seeing q scale.
