GOSSIP OF THE SPORTS THE MONTGOMERY HORSES IN
 MACON, GA. Better Showing Expected at Meeting in Atlanta-Review of Work of College Teams Yesterday
 on Gridirons.

The close of the Macon meeting came yesterday, and while the Montgomery horses have made fine records over there, a big disappointment was sprung yesser- day. The disappointment to Montgomer- fans was in having the 2l9 pace Ie- clared off yesterday. Butts KOhn, Annie Caffey, Senator Vance and George Starr were to have started. MT. Gerson's pa cer, therefore, has not started at all in Macon, but he probably will in Atlanta, as the Montgomery horses are to be shipped there tomorrow.
 While there was a good deal of curi- osity as to the showing Butts Kohn would make. the main interest in the race would have been the fight between Annie Caffey and the Memphis pacer, George Starr. Hughes won the free for all pace Friday with George Starr, the second heat' being stepped in 2;13 1-2. with the Lord Vara mare close up, and the impression is that she should have had the race. However, it is all over at Macon, and Montgomerians hope for bet ter luck in Atlanta this week.
 Butts kOhn will have an opportunity of showing whether he can reduce his mark of 2:14 4-5 made in the Jenks race at Riverside, and 1t IS very probaole that he will do so. If MT. Webber's horse keeps up the showing that he made in lot of trouble in Atlanta. In Macon Sunshine won in three straight heats in 2:l3 1-2. 2:15 ard 2l4.
 One week from next Saturday the first of the season football games will be played in Montgomery It will be a game between Auburn and Vanderbilt.
 The first appearance of Auhurn's l9o' team was made yesterday when they played the Montgomery Athletic Club team. full account of which Is in an h.. ha r. gomery boys held Auburn down to score doesn't signify much. The local team Is not only great deal heavier than Auburn. but Is probably one of the fastest Athletic Club teams ever turned out in the South. Vanderbilt has played but one game this season, beating the Kentucky State College in Nashville last Saturday 22 to nothing,
 Harvard did not make as big a score against Columbia yesterday as last year. Last year they beat the New Workers 24 to 0. and yesterdays score was lH 10 O. Bates scored against Harvard week ago. Bates holding them down to l6 to O., while last year the score was Il to Q in favor of Harvard. Tufta scored against Yale a week ago, the score being y to & while last year Yale beat Tufts 90 to O., Columbia was only able to beat Williams to o a week ago. so the larvard-Co- lumbia game yesterday don't signify so much.
 The Tigers are still showing up stronger than any of the Eastern teams Last year I.ehigh scored against Princeton and held them down to F points. while yesterday the Tigers smothered them. Princeton Is the only one that has not been scored against this season, that team defeating Harvard 47 to D, and the New York University g to O. and Lehish 8 to Q. The Quakers have been scored against by the Penn. State College, who held them down to 3, though yesterday they defeated Brown S to 0, While last year the score was only F to o
