YANKEE JOCKEYS TOO GOOD.

EnElishmen Jealous of the Great Sue
cess of the American Riders.
The results OF the second days racing Of
the Gatwick. England. October meeting yes
terday are not calculated TO lessen the Brit
ish irritation at the supremacy Of the
American jockeys on the English turf.
Four races on the program were won
by riders imported from the United States
and two Of the winning horses are the
property of Americans.
The Gatwick midweight handicap. worth
5000. was won by G. 9. Newtons Ameer
with Danny Maher in the saddle.
The Montefore plate resulted in O victory
for John Smiths Mountain Buck, ridden by
Rigby. Rigby also rode Mr.. Dukes King
Evidence, which finished first in the Craw-
ter selling handicap.
The Mole plate was won by Mr.. brakes
chestnut filly Irish Lass, with Lester Reiff
in the saddle.
At the meeting of the Jockey Club on Oc-
tober 10 the Earl Of Durham made severe
attack upon American jockeys. Referring to
the Importance of handicappers paying at
tenton to in and out running, he said that
from his observation he thought the turf
had not been in worse state than now for
many years This condition he attributed
to the prominence of American jockeys
and their followers. 1t has been seen in race
after race that some American jockeys are
not very scrupulouS how they ride. Unless
great care is taken English trainers, own
ers and jockeys will be driven from New
market. There is now no chance for English
lads who desire to become Jockeys"
Observers of recent events were not sur
prfsed at Lord Durham's action. 1t is point
ed out. however. that his lordship's adms-
sion that Americans are ousting the less
successful British trainers and Jockeys from
the English turf clearly shows that the
attack on the Americans Is the outcome Of
jealousy. The fact that the Prince of Wales
has retained the services of Tod Sloan at
perhaps the highest retainer ever given to
a jockey Is regarded as a clear Indication
that his royal highness does not share the
opinions of Lord Durham

GENERAL SPORTING NOTES

There were pretty girls a-plenty about
the first tee when play was called at Bal
tusrol yesterday The thirty-two who had
qualified on the previous day were on hand
bright and early. and the flush Of excite
ment on many cheeks was deepened by the
brisk autumn breeze that blew across the
links. Golf can be played in all sorts of
weather. but day like yesterday 1t is
sport f1t for kings There was just enough
crispness to the air to make heavy tweeds
comfortable, and the bright colors worn by
the contestants blending with the rich au-
tumnal foliage made a pretty sight The
rain, too, had done the course worlds of
good. and everything combined to add to
the tournaments success.
There were no unpleasant defaults: the
committee got the different pairs OF brisk
ly, and the results were satisfactory to all.
Miss Ruth Underhill, the champion of 1899.
was paired with Fanny K. McLane, the
out splendid work on both sides. Miss Nc
Lane was not so familiar with the course
as her opponent. but Notwithstanding this
disadvantage she showed capital form.
Miss Underhill beat her up and 1 to play.
Beatrix Hoyt. always an interesting figure
to any golfing gathering, had as her oppO-
nent Miss Eunice Terry Of Newport. The
ex-chamdon has gained in judgment, and
eraled her play They were followed by an
enthusiastic gallery. The opening hole was
halved in and then Miss Terry managed
to get In some grand approach shots, and
at the fifth green was up. Miss Hoyt
halved the sixth in 5. then lost two mere,
and al the turn for home was 1 down. On
the tenth hole she tied the score by bring
ing off a splendid put for 4. The next two
were hers also, and the match ended on the
fifteenth green, with Miss Hoyt victor by
up and to play. AS far as can be seen
now, Miss Hoyt should have a good chance
for the semi-tinals, but there is no reason
for predicting her ultimate success.
Miss Grfscum. the national champion, met
Miss Marion Oliver of Albany, who won
second place in the qualifying round on
Tuesday. Medal play and match play are
very different forms of golf. however, and
yesterday she was beaten up and 3 to
play. Each made the first nine holes in SO,
at which point Miss Griscom was l up.
The latter took the first three holes of the
inward journey. and. though Miss Oliver
got the fifteenth. Miss Griscoms $ mo>. sea-
soned form won the day. Peggy Curtis
of Boston beat Miss Gertrude Travis of
Nassau, q UP and to play. Mrs. Edward
A. Manice the Lenox champion, beat Miss
Elsie Cassett of Philadelphia up and to
play.

A HONOLULU HEROINE.

Helen Wilder of Honolulu is not
good person for a horse beater to meet.
For as sure as she sees an act of cruel
~ she marches the offender off to the
police station and leaves him to the
punishment of the law. Miss Wilder
But she does not lounge in her ham
mock and weave garlands for her
pretty head Instead of that she is up
and down and galloping over the
region that she has made her beat.
For she is policeman and her special
care is the safety and comfort of help
less children and dumb animals. She
is the champion of the weak; she rides
like a vaquerO, and springs from her
horse to cuddle and Groom over some
sick or misused baby. By full authority
of the law she arrests any malefactor
without going to the trouble of seCur-
ing a warrant and thus delay khe
course of justice. A recent suit in the
Honolulu courts settled this matter
conclusively. She arrested a street
car driver for beating his mules. She
had no warrant, and the defendant,
claiming that the arrest was Illegal
demanded $4,000 for injuries to his rep
utation. After long trial the jury de-
cided in favor of Miss Wilder, and the
court authorized her to make arrests
whenever she thought proper. Helen
Wilder goes wherever her duty calls.
If the check-rein Of the SWEETEST turn
out in Honolulu is drawn too tight she
commands the driver to stop and I'M
fasten it. Fear she has never felt.
Coolie, Jap, Kanaka or white man, she
arrests them all in spite of threats.
Let the drivers overload the buses or
the Waikiki tramcars pull out over
loaded, and out come her handouts.
She will brook cruelty toward neither
nor animals.-Chicago Jour
