The question now concerns only the
stable, horses, carts, etc, to be pro-
vided. The indications are that Cam
bridge has the most expensive outfit,
but even if that be taken as the criter-
ion, the prospect is encouraging. Like
Worcester, Cambridge covers a large
area, and for that reason there may be
propriety in taking its figures as a
standard. Surprising that 20 carts and
20 horses be needed for Worcester, the
cost of the outfit might be brought
within $500. If the city has the ample
stable accommodations it should have,
the expense of providing for the new
horses and carts should be relatively
trihing.
If Fall River, Lowell and Cambridge,
and many smaller cities, can support a
scavenging department, why not Wor-
cester? The present conditions are
relics of the rustic age of the commuu-
ity. We are now a city of 10000 in
habitants, more or less.

WILL SUPPORT THE PLAN.
Prominent Men Offer to Back the Pro-
posed New Eight Dared Crew, Finan.
cially If Necessary

No boating project, not even the
sending of Edward H. Ten Eyck to En-
gland, to compete at Henley has ever
gained greater popularity among Wor-
cester boating men than the project of
John j. Quinn, former coxswain of the
high school eight, to organize an eight
cared crew to row under the colors of
the Wachusett Boat Club. There has
been no formal gathering of that club
since the project was first mentioned
in The Spy, but members of the club
have expressed great pleasure at the
project.
But the excellence of the scheme
commends it to more than members
of the Wachusetts. Last week Mr.
Quinn was informed by three men who
have always taken an interest in boat
ing, that they would give whatever
financial assistance he might ask for
the formation of crew on the lines
he has laid down. The offer was en-
tirely unsolicited. Mr.. Quinn told the
men that the program does not con-
template the asking of any assistance in
financial way until the crew has
proved its worth.
By that time the chances are no out
side assistance will be required. Mem
DeIS OIL the w dCuuSetlS lulllk SO well OF
the plans that they predict the club
will adopt the crew and be pleased at
the chance. The club will undergo
no hardship at the start, and it's sub
sequent action will be purely volun-
tary and will depend on the excellence
Of the crew. No club could require
more. If the crew carries itself ac-
cording to the plans that have been
made. it will be more faithful than any
crew that ever represented the Wa
chusetts and undoubtedly a faster crew
than ever roWed on the lake

WILL DRIVE A FAST ONE,

Col, Thayer viii Have Moth Miller
2.lo 80 on the Road After This Season
Horsemen will be glad to know that
at a recent meeting of the stockholders
of the American Trotting Register as
sociation, it was decided in future to
issue a more complete Year Book than
has appeared since volume VIII was
published. The book will contain a
complete list of standard performers
under their sires, and also complete
list of the produce of the great brood
mares. OF course the cost of
such a work will be much
greater than of any Year Book since
volume VIII, but it will be cheap at
double the price of the recent volumes,
Col. John E. Thayer of Lancaster will
drive Moth Miller (2:10%) on the road
after this season. His desire to drive
a horse of his own breeding on the road
is responsible for Dr. 2. f. Frost's pur-
chase of Lelah w. (2:0S1). DIR. Frost
paid SS40 for Lelah W., and good judges
think he struck a good bargain. DR..
Frost intends to try out Lelah w. on
the track, and see if he can get her
going in her class.
mat the earning capacity OF the trot-
ter is increasing each year is shown
by the annual increase in the winnings
of the leading campaigners, and should
the season of 1899 bring forth another
John Nolan or Directum Kelly, he will
be able to land even more money than
the sensations of 1898. Like Rilma, the
champion of 1897, the leader of last year
was a green horse when the campaign
opened in the spring, but little heard
of outside of Montana John Nolan
was a natural PAGER, but revolted and
took to the trot and stuck to it, de-
spite of all the efforts of his trainer
to make him pace. Although but a
four-y ear-old. he won over $4,000, in

THAT BALK RULE.
The False Motions of Pitchers Now APP
ply Only to First Base.

A change has been made in the balk
rule so that the false motions of the
pitcher now applies to first base only.
The reason of the change is that it
was found impossible for a pitcher to
watch either of the other bases without
making a balk. President N E. Young
of the National League has notified
John II. Gaffney and the other umpires
of the change.
