most satisfactory F'uturity ever run.
Twenty horses went to the post, with
the Keene trio, Chacernac. Virginia
Earle and Doublet, ruling favorite at
s TO 5. They were sent off with but a
few minutes delay, and were seen in
the distance coming down the chute In
a straight line through the cloud OF
dust. Modrine was first away with
DOublet and Chacernac right beside
him. Ii was work with hands and
knees to get first into the stretch and
Spencer had Chacernac in front as they

When / first landed from the steamer
felt some bad effects from the intense
heat, but am all right now, and, be-
sides, it is never very sultry here at
Saratoga Lake, where the ground is
high and the climate very similar to
what / have been accustomed TO in
England. Most of my training con-
sists in taking such exercise as rum
ming, rowing and other outdoor sports.
OF course punch the bag and do some
boxing to keep my eye in. but the ma
jor part of my work is done on the
road, so as to get the benefit of the
fresh air.
Before stop | wish to state that all
the arrangements for the fight as car
ried out by my manager. A. f. Bettin-
son, are in every way satisfactory to
me. / could not have chosen two more
satisfactory officials than George Siler
for referee and Al. Smith as stakehoid-
er. Both are known here and through
out England as thoroughly honest and
capable men, In fact, everything
seems to have been done with a view

When Eddie Bald left our shores and
accompanied TOD" Sloane to England
recently, the newspapers all over the
country expressed great surprise at MS
action. AS matter of fact, Bald had
stated over his own signature before
the season opened that he would only
race in America during part OF the
summer, and would go abroad some
time in August or September. 1t was
his intention last winter not to race IN
America at all this season, but to put
in his time in match contests IN france
and other European countries. lie dld
not leave earlier because OF the nght
for control of cycling racing IN THIS
country that began about that time be-
tween the l.. A. w. and the n. e. A.
Bald is president of the American
Racing Cyclists Union. the organize
ton of the professionals, and he
thought that if he went abroad then he
would be looked upon by his fellows
as leaving them in the lurch at a crit
ical time. The N. C. A. is now at the
top of the heap, and Bald feels no such
Qualms.
Bald is financially we'll fixed, besides
which he does not take easily to the
hardships of training, so that he Will
probably not be seen frequently on the
bicycle tracks on the other side. He
and "Tod" had good time together in
San Francisco last winter, during
which period Bald found the turf a
great attraction He has made some
money on the horses this summer, and

that way than by plugging for the
honor of being cycling champion for
the fifth successive season.
Earl Kiser, the Dayton Dumping"
is another of the fast racers who will
probably not be seen much longer in
harness. He says he is Edisgusted with
the game, which probably means he is
not as successful as he hoped to be.
He expects to go into business at his
old home
The banquet which Terry McGovern
rendered to Pedlar Palmer on his ar
rival from England marks an era in
the pugilistic world This little Brook
Ign boy has taught the big fighters lots
of niceties connected with the sport,
outside of the fighting itself, at which
he has no peer in his class. Instead of
vituperation and newspaper scrapping,
he met his prospective rival in a spirit
of friendship and with proper regard
for the high standing of the visitor.
McGovern has elevated the little fell
lows from a position of fast waning
interest to a place beside the most i'm
portant of the big fellows. He is a
prime favorite with every one with
whom he comes in contact.
A good many American jockeys,
reading of the success of TOD" Sloane,
"Skeets" Martin and little Johnny
Reiff on the English turf, have become
imbued with the idea that they can do
just as well over there. After the end
of the season in the east there is like
ly to be quite an exodus of youngsters
who desire to share the spoils of their
mates in England, and perhaps even
to get nod from the prince. One OF
those who has signified his intention
to try his fortunes in England is
Charlie Thorpe, who is a very capable
jockey. He is not skillful, but daring,
and should be quite successful in his
venture. He has contracts to ride in
this country that will keep him over

SECOND GAME.

The second game resulted in a tie at
the end of the third. Leahy went to
bat for Wheeling, when the rain be-
gan to fall. The shower continued
for about fifteen minutes. At the ex
piration of that time, Colgan walked
out to the plate and was about to call
time when Lyle and Wright held a
conference, and it was decided to call
the game off. The New Castle team
had to catch a train in about an hour,
and it was decided that it would be
hardly worth while to resume play
AS a matter of fact, both captains were
evidently content to let we'll enough
alone.
Parvin went into the box for Wheel
ing, and pitched in an apparently in
different and careless manner, pro-
voking a noisy demonstration on the
part of the 'rooters," who demanded
that he be taken out Parvin COM
planned Of sore arm, but there was
no pitcher to put in his place, and his
work was really satisfactory, as he set
tied down at time when hits meant
runs, and held the visitors down better
than Smith.
Wheeling scored one in the first on
single by Niles and a double by
Donahue, and one in the second on a
single by Parvin and long triple by
Dobbs. Cote drove out a three Dagger
in the third, but did not score. The
visitors made two in the second, on
hits by Miller Graffius, and Mattress.

Sectionalism is the bane of any State.
community divided into jealous and
suspicious, grasping and domineering
sections is bound to retrograde It is
simply impossible for it to advance,
impossible for 1T to command the re-
spect of the nation.
The Republicans of the counties Of
Northern California have never been
a unit because Of their localities. They
have constituted a generously divided
party element. In short the Republi-
can party membership in the northern
and central counties have not been, and
let us hope they never will be section
alists. When they become such they
will cease to be valuable inteliigences
to the party or to the State. They
should stand, as they have, for the
State as a whole, just as they have
battled for the party as a whole, re-
CARELESS of section, district or resi-
dence. They should want, as they al
ways have, men for place that are the
result of party choice, wholly regardless
Of their residence.
But our Republican brethren of the
southern counties appear to regard
that section as about all there is OF
this great commonwealth. Their atti-
tude in the present Senatorial contest is
that Of the individual who exclaims to
his colleague and equal partners, My
interest or nothing In refusal to EN-
ploy and abide by the rule of the party
