the GreyhOunds.

Secretary Benson of the Pastime Cours-
ing Club announces two stakes for next
Sunday. The first will be an all-aged event.
50 nomination fee, every winner of a course
to save his stake. The club guarantees to
add suffic -ent money to the stake to make
the winners share equivalent to the amount
of all the nomination fees.
The other stake will be a puppy event, ~

Mr.. Turner was much pleased by the
showing Pride of the Border made in last
Sundays stake. which he won from a good
close worker. who does better as he goes
along. He is yet far from his best form
and condition.
he fell in his course with Laughing Water
last Sunday that he will not be fit to go TO
a hole when he had a good chance to &c.
compllsh something. As a hard-luck animal
he IS entitled to first place.
Though Linlithgow Lass is suffering from
the effects Of recent febrility, Mr.. Nally
says that she will go to slips in the next
two stakes. Backcrs of the fast daughter
of Terrona are liable 20 find themselves out
Of pocket, for she scarcely can attain her
old form In her present condition.
Those who claim to know say that the
white fellow. Tapioca, Is the fastest dog in
Mr.. Orthwein's kennel. Trainer McCaffrey
insists that Sisquoc is. Tapioca. fresh, led
Tfburon. tired, a long way in a bye last
Sunday. Many people overlooked the fact
that Tiburon had had two hard courses,
while Tapioca had but one short one, while
being put out by Mystic Fakir. They bet
on Tiburon. McCaffrey also insists that
Tiburon fit can lead Tapioca quite n long
way. McCaTrey must sight the Missou-

the Fawcetts. three times successive win
ners of the Waterloo Cup, are DESTROYS Of
importing to England several American
bitches Of the Major and Daisy, Waratah-
Wave and other semi-American and Aus
tralian crosses. 1t Is said that the English
strain is being too far inbred and that the
Fawcetts, who certainly are the leading
breeders of England, wish to breed cut
a little. While all good greyhounds trace
their lineage back to the English stud
book some of the American and Australian
lot have been so long established in the
land of their adoption that they comprise
an almost new family.
