MARE SHOWED TEETH.
Big Bringing Job spoiled be-
cause the TrOtter's Mouth
Was Open,

Speaking about ringers said one of
the old-time horsemen in attendance at
the meeting of the board of review of the
National Trotting association, reminds
mt of a yarn that was told by Dan
Dennison, one of the queerest and
shrewdest old characters that ever had
to do with horses. Dan was out il
California ali, the time, and had a chance
to pick up for a little money a very fast
mare that had raced up to her record
until she was unable to win in the free
for-all classes. Then she was sold for a
roadster, and practically lost sight of.
Dan took her down nto southern Cali
fornia after he had 'bishoped' her a bit
hogged her name, aud fixed her so that
no one would ever recognize her as
the speedy mare of years before, He
had his son drive her, had entered her in
one of the slow classes as d f~our-year-old
mare, and had faxed up some sort Of a
pedigree for her. AS a matter of fact,
she was a dozen years old at least. Dan
wanted to make a killing with her, and
so had told his boy to LAY her up for the
first two heats, and let the boys back the
other horses well before he put his
money down. The mare was full Of
speed on the day OF the race, and the
only way the lad could make her lose
the first heat was to carry her to a break.
He did that we'll, but the bettors were a
bit afraid of the unknown mare. So il
was absolutely necessary to the carrying
out of his plans to lose the next heat
In the heat the old mare would no.
break, but troCted as steadily as if she
never knew how to do anything else
The driver had, therefore, 10 pull heI
outright. That pulling was the undoina
of the job, for, as Dan put it. the boy
pulled the old mare so hard that hel
mouth was so wide open that every one
Cd the grand stand could see every one
of her teeth. Every sharp could see
then that she Was at least a dozen years
old. They made a kick and she was
thrown u of the race, and the chance
for a big winning Was done for"

AMNESTY TO OUTLAWS"
Action of the international Associa-
tion of WheeImen at Paris.

PARIS, Feb. 26.-The Congress OF Inter-
national Cyclists Association concluded its
deliberations to-day after several stormy
sessions. The questions of the retirement
OF the League of American Wheelmen from
the association and the admission of the
National wheelmen's Association in its
place furnished the subject for warm dis
cussion. The session was secret, but it
transpires that President Blaurock, of the
National Cycling Association, was heard in
support of the request to enter the Inter-
national Cycling Association as body gov
erning amateur and professional racing in
America. The congress finally voted the
admission of the National Cycling Associa-
ton as the successor of the League or
American Wheelmen. AS consequence
of the defipite settlement of the American
conflict the congress granted full amnesty
to all racing men who had been penaliZed
by either rival association.
The second important question before the
congress was the proposal to limit the num-
Der of delegates from each country TO two

because they declared it would curtail their
influence in the association, as, at present,
England, Ireland and Scotland are each
represented by two delegates. The upshot
of the discussion was that President Stur-
mey and the other British representatives
left the meeting in huff, declaring that
the proposal would wreck the association.
The congress then voted to censure SturS
mey, but on motion of the president it was
decided to adjourn action on the main pro-
posal until the next assembly.

the bill was for the purpose of obtaining

enthusiasm.
Speaker Henderson concluded: This bill

Mr.. Payne adjured his colleagues TO stand
shoulder to shoulder and to vote solid
