continental cities. Our people have
little skill in cooking to rags tough,
cheap meat; when they can't get steak
OF good roast pieces they go without.
And this they do wholly aside from
any agreement as to ~boycotting the
product of the trust. A boycott is
easy enough to work in a small city,
but in a place so large as New York
it is difficult to manage and hard to
maintain.
The excitement has been literally
a gold mine for a few vegetarian res
t%aurants. There were of these a
month ago not one in New York
where London has So. I have in both
cities tried the vegetarian eating
houses, and in both it has seemed to
me that the idea really at the bot
tom of vegetarianism might be prin-
ciple for the leaders, but that it is
for the average follower a disguised
economy.
A "cattle express" train reaches
New York city every week from the
northern border of the state, having
at no point crossed it's boundary, but
the cattle brought down from the
north r mainly cows past their day

help out much on the problem of

There is no joke in this joke. 1t is
the grim truth. In the better class of
New York apartments the rule against
children is cast iron and is enforced.
The boycott of children is the making
of the suburbs. The artists of the
comic papers make much fun of the
baby wagons of Brooklyn. There is
truth in the jest, but it is really at New
York's expense. Babies are more
abundant in Brooklyn, at least in
households of moderate income.

so many city land owners, in the coun-
try.
A most remarkable case was the
sale, the other day, of a plot of land
IN Long Island that had been in the
possession of the Ludlow family for
237 years. This is the family to which
retired AdmiralNicoll Ludlow belongs,
and it is related to half the Ludlows
Of the United States. Some of the
Aston land has now been held for a
century or so. The Astors never buy
to sell, but to rent. Modern leases are
seldom made out for 90 years, as in
the old days, but for 81 or IA, or some
multiple of seven.
A curious fact is that the New York
Herald's beautiful Office is built upon
leesehold land, on which the lease has
not long to run. Some one once asked
James Gordon Bennett why he select
ed such a plot for his building.
"What do I care what becomes of it
after I'm dead?" replied the bluff
bachelor.
As a matter of fact, even so beautiful
. building as the Herald's is what
landowners call a "taxpayer'-a tenn
porary structure that pays taxes and

Gossip Of tbe 5ports
AMI atbleteS =:

the Futurity race. To possess the win
ner of this big race is a contamination
more to be wished by many turfmen
than the money the victory brings.
Why should this be so? It is obvious
that the blood strains which are good
enough to win in an event like the Flu
turity are "stylish" enough to be car
ried for years in the racing strains
OF the country. The Futurity winner
might retire to the stock farm imme-
diately he has annexed that valuable
prize to his string, and the owner
would make a lot of money from the
colt. There is a provision that the
breeder of the winner shall receive
a big slice of the stake.
But is is in the way Futurity animals
are nominated that the interesting fea-
ture arises. The stallion and mare are
nominated in the book of entries and
the produce is what is raced. 1t is a
breeding and racing lottery pure and
simple. This year the Futurity is eli
g1ble for 431 horses. Of course, it
would be ridiculous to think of that
many horses starting in the race for
$4,000 or over. But the fact remains
that just now there are nearly $50
horses' colts and fllies eligible to race
Tor the greatest turf prize in the new
world. All of the leading breeders
n owners are represented in the list,
which the Coney Island club has made
public. Sons and daughters of Has
tings and Henry of Navarro are

are housewife settled in her new home
than she begins to plan leaving it o
the summer. Many real estate men
try to substitute the first of October
- the day for renewing leases, but
without much success.
If all the MAY moving" were really
done or attempted on one day, there
would be a riot. It's bad enough as 1t
is. AS far as possible people plan
to get the trouble over before that
kme. For a month back there has
been an Eruption of moving vans along
all the city streets and country roads
flor people now go into the country
in April when they can, and do not
wait for the cheated term" 1t is Gus
tomary for landlords to favor this
custom by offering "free rent until
May L." when fats or houses fall va
cant a short time earlier.
One reason why the old custom is
difficult to change is that so many OF
the old leases are dated from the
lrst of May. This is the case with
Russell Sage's house. 1t is built upon
leasehold land belonging to the Gerry
family The lease falls in this year.
and Mr.. Gerry promptly raised the
ground rent from $4,000 to $4,000.
Mr.. Sage, though credited with being
worth a hundred millions, decided that
it was "cheaper to move than pay
rent" Perhaps he has since changed
his mind. In his case, as in so many
others, the house is his own, but as he
cannot carry it away with him. the
law provides machinery for valuing it,
and the owner of the land must buy
it in for the valuation price. This is
one of the many reasons why New
York always seems SO little a home
like city. Even a wealthy man cannot
always be sur of retaining his land or
his house if he becomes attached to
it. The leasehold plan is more COM
mon in New York than anywhere else
in the union, except, perhaps, in Prov
idence, r. I. It is a natural survival
Of the early days of the colony, when
the inhabited part of the state was
parceled out among the "patroons,"
and all the other inhabitants were
rent-payers. 1t took the "barn-burn-
er" agitation to change this state of
things in the rural districts, the state
having adopted a "barn-burner con-
stitution," as the lawyers called it,
early in the century. But more traces
hnger in the city, where leasehold and
freehold land lie side by side in the
most unexpected way.

world. Strictly speaking, it is a tale
of the sea that might be told of this
boy. Under contract to go to England
to ride the horses of Multimillionaire
William c. Whitney, at an annual re-
tainer of $4,000, the boy was actually
aboard the liner to sail from New York
when he suddenly pleaded with his
father to let him go ashore. II am
afraid of the sea-" said the boy.
"Nonsense, it won't hurt you," said
the officers of the steamer. But moth
ing that was said deferred the boy
from quitting the ship. He was too
nervous to trust himself aboard the
boat, and declared he would abandon
his $4,000 job rather than cross the
ocean.
Since then MI. Whitney's agents
have done their best to urge the boy
to make the trip. In vain they have
told him that the fee of $10,0 900 would
be augmented to $4,000 by the regular
payment for winning mounts. But
Cochran has elected to pilot horses
in the United States. The strange
thing about it is that the boy who
could not bear to be shut up aboard
a ship will glide through a small open
ing in a big field at a t~reacherous race
track, pilot his mount close to the
fence on turns that are death deal
ers to those who make the slightest
slip and risk his life several times
an afternoon to earn the usual $25
fee for a winning mount.
Followers, of >theaturf who think $1O,-
600 is an enormous salary for a young
and illiterate boy to draw, declare he
must be suffering a.temporary mental
alteration. The truth is, one. of the
best jockeys the world ever knew has
declared emphatically that a success
full rider is always insane-insane to
the extent that he ignores the danger
he run every time he rides in a big
field.
Another thing-Cochran has found
Mr.. Whitney and other wealthy turf
men willing to employ him in this our
try, as the supply of good lightweight
riders is rather limited. II would
rather control the services Of an ex-
pert lightweight jockey" said a ia
nous trainer the other day, than own
absolutely the best stable of race
horses in America. The boys work
would make more money for each of us
than would a stable. Confidence is as
essential to victory as is skill. A boy
| might be afraid to ride in an elevated
road train, and yet he would not hest
tate to take a chance with death to
win the Suburban handicap. recall
Tommy ~Britton-the Daredevil, as we
called him. He was afraid to sleep
in the dark in a stable with the other
jockeys. Yet at Latonia and Washing
ton park he would come shouting
through a field of horses, soaring the
other boys into fits, and would send
his mount through a hole between
the nearest horse to the fence that
! no sane man would think of trying

characters that are a mystery to the

it, don't yer knaw." In their eff
forts to give the country club
a distinct flavor of the old world, the
devotees of golf, c"ross-country riding,
tennis. etc., have set a precedent in
coaching that bids fair to extend to
many of the best-known country clubs
of the country. A revival of pioneer
coaching with the whips send
ing their coaches along on sched-
ule time, rain or shine, is noted
in the east. There are clubs in the
west that have determined upon an
"all-year-around" programme, and
they undoubtedly will adopt the coach
ing idea.
Twenty-six miles from the Holland
house in New York, by the city and
country roads, is the Aras]ey Country
clubs home. For exclusiveness and
the celebrity of the men and. women
who play golf on its links, bat the
white tennis ball on its courts, or ride
ponies over its broad fields, the Ards
ley is not equaled by any club in the
country. Every week day until May
81 the coach will make the 26 mile run
from the Holland house to the club and
return with some millionaire holding
the ribbons over the blooded horses,
and every effort will be made to keep
schedule time. During the hot wealth
er season the coach will be discontin-
ued, the service to be resumed in the
fall. A train ride to the club would be
much quicker and would cost each in
divfdual about one dollar. The cost
of. maintaining the coach. brings the
actual fare of each rider up to $26 a
day. &"@
