LIBERAL PURSES FOR
BBNNING2:. MEETING
The ProgrammeuIncludes All
Kinds and Conditions
of Races.
EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD CARD
Many Debutantes to Face the Starter
New Orleans Runners Not to Have 1t
All Their Own Way-Some Pointed
Advice to Local Public.

The programme just issued for the first
eleven days of the Benning spring meet
ing is all that could be desired. and shows
great liberality on the part of the Wash
ington Jockey Club. They have hung UP
in added money to be raced for in these
eleven days the sum of S23, 900, an aver
age Of nearly s., ,lSJ for each day, and in
addition they have also added valuable
plate to be given to the winner of the
Hunters Steeplechase.
The programme also reflects great cred
it on the clerk of the course, H. G.
Crickmore. under whose supervision it
was gotten up. as it meets all the con-
ditions suitable to the class Of horses
now on the grounds and others yet to
come, who have already engaged stable
room. The programme could not be i'm
proved upon, as it embraces all kinds and
conditions of races-selling, purse,
steeplechase, hurdle, and maiden races
in fact, every kind of a race that could
be desired by owners and trainers, rich
and poor alike.
Fine Opening Day.
The opening day especially calls for
a splendid programme, commencing with
a preliminary dash of six furlongs for
three-year- and upward. The second
on the card is the Arlington purse for
two year-olds, at four furlongs, and here
the Benning patrons will have an oppor-
tunity of seeing the debutantes of 1902,
many of whom, il not all, will face the
starter for the first time. The third
race on the card calls for a maiden
steeplechase. at about two miles over the
Benning steeplechase course. The ma
than ordinary, as many good horses on
the fiat have been lately schooled to go
through the field, and it would not be
at all surprising if some good ones should
be shown in this race that may develop
into crack timber-toppers later on.
The feature of the day-and one of the
features OF the meeting-is the fourth,
carded as the Benning Spring Handicap
at six furlongs, in which the best horses
at the track are entered. The quality of
the entries Is the best that could be got
ten together at this season of the year. and
it should be an exciting contest from the
drop of the flag. So far there have been
no Withdrawals, and fms. field of starters
is assured.
The fifth IS a maiden race for three
year-olds and upward at seven furlongs.
for which there is sure to be large num-
Der of entries. The day winds up with a
selling race at a mill. and forty yards. for
three year-olds and upward. The condi-

A DRAW AT BALTIMORE.
Walcott Had Best of Fight With Young
Peter Jackson

BALTIMORE, March 13.-Young Peter
Jackson and Joe Walcott tonight fought
ten rounds to draw before the Eureka
Athletic Club. Although the fight was
declared draw, Walcott had all the best
of it.
He forced the fighting from start to
finish. and all that jackson tried to do
was to stay the ten rounds. as Walcott
had agreed to knock Peter out in the ten
rounds. But little can be said of the
contest. with the exception that Walcott
took the aggressive from the tap of the
gong.
He played for the wind, while Jackson
simply tried TO save himself by continu-
ally clinching. The few times that Jack
son did land on Walcott did not even
seem to tease the Barbados wonder.

WANT SALE OF LIQUOR STOPPED.
Prince George Citizens Reopen Fight
Against Chesapeake Junction.

Yesterday afternoon a committee rep
resenting about sixty of the leading citi-
zens of Prince George County, Nd, called
upon Gov. John Walter Smith, at Annap-
oils. and reopened the fight against the
sale of liquor in the neighborhood of
Chesapeake Junction.
The committee endeavored to induce
Governor Smith to send special mes
sage to the Maryland Legislature request
ing that a law be passed prohibiting the
sale of liquor within a radius of two
miles of Chesapeake Junction. They
claimed that an undesirable moral con-
dition prevails in the neighborhood of the
junction in the summer season.

EVENTS OF INTEREST IN THE WORLD OF SPORT S

tions of this race make it possible for
several of the horses who have been rum
ming at New Orleans to enter. and ii
should furnish good contest.
Southern Flyers in Favor.
Great things are expected of the New
Orleans horses, as many figure on them
being in better racing condition and in
better shape than the horses now at Ben
ming. 1t must be taken into consideration,
however, that there is a great difference
in the class. and if a line is taken on the
past performances of New Orleans horses.
the ones now at Benning have nothing to
fear from them.
1t wouid be absurd to class First Whip
Unmasked, Red Path. Charentus. Knight
of Rhodes, and Decanter with Mynheer,
Garter. Ban. Death, Felix Bard, and
others who are coming here. In fact, it
would be difficult to bring them together
by weight. Then again the New Orleans
track over which these horses have been
doing such wonders Is as hard as a brick
and entirely different from the going at
Benning. When they strike the deep sandy
going here they will find it far different
from running over pasteboard, and they
Another thing to be considered is that
the horses at Benning are not near so
backward as some of the owners and
trainers would have you believe: and IL
the weather continues as it is now they
will all be flor pretty near it. OF course
there are a few stables on the ground,
owned and controlled by wealthy people,
who will not hurry their horses along for
fear OF imperiling their chances in future

enforced idleness for nearly four months
compels them to try to pull down some

money that some Of them actually need.
Public Should Be Wise.
The public should not be jollied into the
idea that all of the horses at Benning are
not fit to race. A visit to the track any
day would dispel that idea as many of
them are close up to race. and it is only
a few that are backward
McLaughlin's stable is in first-class
shape. First Whip looks better, and goes
also good, and going we'll. Billy Garth's
horses are all fit now and only waiting
for the word. Imperialist and All Saints

and looked at that as II they were only out
for an airing. The Goughacres stable with
twenty. reported as ready to race will be
here Oh Tuesday next. On that SAME day
Pa Bradley is expected with twenty-five.
With good weather from now on there
is an assurance OF large fields, and also an
assurance that the coming spring meeting
will be the best ever held at the Benuing
track.
The Washington Jockey Club deserve
success. They have not hesitated in spend
ing money to make their racing plant the |
equal OF any in the country. They are con- |
tinually improving 1t, and every improve |
ment is made with the sole view OF |
enabling their patrons to see clean, Iegiti- |

Prof Gentry, the owner aud trainer
of the company of educated dogs and
ponies who are to exhibit in this city
under their commodious tent on Brook
haven Base Ball Park, Tuesday,
April lst, is said to be a young man
and possessed of an unlimited amount
of patience; of the latter fact there can
be no doubt when it becomes known
that it required eight months of con-
slant labor to teach one little dog a
single act; what this act is and whether
it will be appreciated or not remains
to be seen when the exhibition arrives.
In addition to the long list of equine
and canine favorites seen before, Prof.
Gentry promises several new and never
before attempted features which are
said to be a distinct novelty in the
trained animal line. The prices of ad-
