II the race is long one you win become
exhausted by the end Of the ride" SO
said a well known Jockey when ques.

saiions were when riding IN a race.
"A mile race on a good horse Is run
In about 1880.
"A mile In $40 Is at the rate of SO
miles an hour, So you see, a race horse
travels at train speed.
IF you want 20 know how Il feels to
go through the air at race horse speed
Just hang your head out Of a railway
carriage window, turning your face to.

AT the same time imagine that you
are sitting in a saddle and have 10

being run down or interfered with.
1T is no easy task TO ride a horse
in a race. The jockey must have all his
wits about him He does not have
much time to think how he feels. When

TERRY is A TERROR.
Featherweight Defeated Joe Bern
stein in the Seventh Round.

Louisville. KY. Nov. Terry Nc
Govern, the featherweight champion,
defeated Joe Bernstein Of New York IN
the seventh round before the Nonpareil
Athletic club, and 5000 people tonight.
The featherweight championship was
involved and the battle was scheduled
FOR twenty-five rounds. The purse was
$500, OF which the winner received
$500.
McGovern took his time, only occa-
sionally sailing into Bernstein, but when
he did there was a slashlng succession
OF blows which appeared TO be snatched
from mysterious source,
After two minutes and five seconds
OF the seventh round he rammed,
manged and beat his opponent Bern
stein was badly dazed and could not
speak for several seconds.
McGovern had cautious foe with a
punch In either hands. but McGovern
blocked, rushed and bewildered his
antagonist with blows from all direc-
lions and seemingly at the same in
slant
Picking the winner was never a con-
sideration. The question was how
long will Bernstein last" that was the
betting proposition. In the final round
McGoyern showed his whlrlwind form
and ripped killing stabs that took the
steam out OF Bernstein Bernstein was
unable TO continue after a right hook 10

The Fame and Fortune OF Little
Terry McGOvern.

Terry McGoyern, the pugilst marvel

throughout the week training In the
day time for his fight with Joe Bern
stein at Louisville, and playing TO
packed houses at night In one OF the
local theaters.
McGoyern is only 20 years old His
rise TO prominence as a boxer has been
phenomenal. Less than two years ago
he was comparatively unknown outside
Of limited circle In Greater New York,
while today he occupies a position In
pugilistic circles second In Importance

heavyweight champion. Jim Jeffries.
Terry is the undisputed bantam

first fight Of importance was with
George Munroe in August. 1898, before
the Coney Island club. McGovern won
IN twenty rounds Since then Harry
Forbes Johnny Richie. Pedlar Palmer,
George Dixon, Eddie Santry and Frank
Erne, the lightweight champion, have
gone down before him.
McGoyern's earnings I'm the prize ring

habits He does not drink. chew or
smoke and Is devoted 20 his young wife
and baby boy, who. according 70 his
dad. Is a chip of the old block, which
