suffered In some cases rather severely
from the storms effects. The Milwaukee
train to and from Chicago were compelled
to walt for time at La Crosse. This,
however, was a precautionary measure,
taken because of the rainfall, which was
the heaviest ever recorded in that sec

REIFF WILL WIN SUITS.
Charley Gray, an American Jockey,
Tells Some Interesting Facts
About Foreign Turf.

Charles Gray. the American Jockey. who
has been riding In Austria during the past
season. has returned to the United States.
He tells some interesting facts in regard
to the foreign turf.
With Gray when he reached New York
were Charley (Old MANI Thorpe. and
Rigby, who have been riding in France.
Thorpe won eighty-seve races and Rigby
won sixty-seven, although he was sus-
pended during several weeks Of the racing
season. Speaking Of racing in Austria,
Gray said: tt.. =
>, "They have some really good horses in
Austria. The best of them is Llubar. who
can carry 140 to $50 pounds and gallop
away from any animal In the country. A
Hungarian jockey, who rides with short
stirrups and reins, led the Austrian riders
last season with ninety-ntne wins, Fred
Taral was second with sixty-eight, Rus
sell. a California rider, third with forty
four, and 7 was fourth with forty tbree.
That Is a pretty poor showing, but ]
would have done better had not a large
number Of the horses in our stable been
too sick to race during large part of
the season. At. one time we had twenty
three animals in the hospital. At the be-
ginning Of August I had won only four
races, but after that our horses improved
in form and during the latter part Of the
season I won as many races as any OF
them"
Gray says that Reiff is likely to win
his libel suits against the Partisan news
papers, but that Milton Henry. who sued
the jockey club, will lose his case.

YACHTING

The old cup defender Puritan, owned by Com
modore John 0. Shaw, Jr., was sold Monday
through the agency of Hollis Burgess to c. W.
Foster of Boston.
Although originally sloop, Puritan is now
schooner rugged, and Mr.. Foster intends to
further alter it by installing a twenty-horse
power gasolene engine. There was some talk
of plugging up the center-board box and making
keel boat Of it, considerable trouble was
experienced from leaks In the centerboard box,
but it is now thought that this trouble be
remedied end the centerboard will be retained
Next to America. which first won the famous
trophy. and to Columbia, which twice successful
ly defended IT, Puritan is the most famous of any
Of the cup defenders. 1t In this boat that
Edward Burgess made his daring departure from,
English and American principles Of yacht design
ing.
The English type was the deep keel cutter,
while that of the Americans was the shoal draft
centerboard sloop. Burgess picked out the good
qualities of both and boldly produced a boat
with gOodly draft and put a centerboard in it..

Ice yacht races on Lake Minnetonka
have been indefinitely postponed as a re-
suit of the heavy snow Of the last few
days. The contests for the inter-lake
challenge pennant and the Hudson cup
cannot be held during the next two or
three weeks at least. and may be delayed
even longer.
Most of the Minnetonka club yachtsmen
have hauled their boats ashore. and are
awaiting patiently for the snow to thaw
or blow off. At present 1t is SO deep
that even the largest boats cannot make
Roadway through it. Ward Burton, chair
man of the Minnetonka club committee
on sports, said to-day:
ut is all up with ice yachting I am
afraid. hope that later in the winter
we may get some sport, but we must wait
and see whether we get any more snow
Most Of the ice yachts have been hauled
ashore to await developments"
The snow will undoubtedly prevent the
scheduled races on Lake Calhoun also

HUNTING

Eugene St. Onge, young lad OF Letour Mich,
recently had encounter with savage buck
deer, and the fact that the boy not killed
is due to his display of nerve.
The boy was hunting rabbits when suddenly he
was confronted by a large buck which was paw
ing the ground and shifting the air as though he
could destroy q whole regiment of hunters. The
boy became frightened and started to for q
tree with the deer after him. The lad then,
with rare presence of mind turned on his
pIIrsuer and bravely stodo his ground. He raised
his gun, which was loaded with small shot, to his
shoulder, and when the animal was only few
feetyaWay he fired. The charge of shot entered
the animals neck and it fell to the ground. The
lad then dipatched it with a club. The carcass
weighed $50 pounds after being dressed.

IN THE PRIZE RING

Champion Feather Weight Young Corbett, ac-
conpanied by his trainer, Dutch" Tuthill, and
his sparring partner. Will Fitzgerald, arrived
at the training quarters at the Price Hill House.
Corbett is the picture of health but somewhat
high in flesh. Not so high, however, that he
cannot be in frst-class shape after three weeks
work. Corbett is the same confident, bright lit
tie chap Of old and he seems to like the idea of
getting in ring with McGovern better than sit
ting down to a swell neal.
Eddie Dryer, former amateur champion, was
knocked out at South Bend, Ind, by Morris
Rauch of Chicago after one minute of fighting.
Rauch put Dryer to the mat three times. The
knockout blow was left uppercut to the jaw.

PLACE FOR THE NEGRO
Senator Morgan Wants to Send Him
to- the Philippines. ,.'...

Washington, Dec. Ex-senator Morgan
Of Alabama has plan for colonizlng In
the Philippines the negroes of the United
States. He has urged his scheme upon
the president, Secretary Root and Gov
ernor Taft Speaking of the project, SEN
ator Morgan says:
1.-The principal reason for my attitude In
the senate toward retaining the Philippine
islands was my belief that those Islands
would afford a home for the negroes
When first came to congress introduced
a resolution to recognize the Congo. Free
State as an independent nation, merely to
afford the negroes Of this country place
to which they might emigrate when their
numbers increased to an extent that
would make emigration necessary. The
resolution passed the senate and house,
and the colonization of the negroes in the
Congo was Well under way when the
United States acquired the Philippines
1.-THE acquisition Of that territory opens
up a new and vastly superior country for
them. The land is richer, the climate
better suited to them, and there they
would still be under the flag. took the
matter up with Secretary Root, and wrote
to Governor General Taft for information
and ideas on the plan of colonizing the
negroes there. Both were favorably i'm
pressed, and all the move needs is
starter
Senator Tillman of South Carolina does
not take any stock in Senator Morgan's
plan. Mr.. Tillman said to-day: - 9 =
Nov. say. that the negroes are taken
to the Philippines. There will be the cost
|!of transportation to the Pacific ocean, OF
the ocean voyage, Of the prepare ton OF
! some Temporary habitation auntil they are
able to provide for themselves and feed
ing them until they raise, harvest and
market their first crop, If this isfall the
government intends to do for them, why
the item of expense would be something
enormous. 1t would be necessary to tag
| the people to the point of oppression. No
sir; all such plans are chimerical dreams
Of the widest character" ''''- =

A. A. Z. billiard championship has been a rather
open question, but according to reports from the
west, Chicago IS preparing to jump into the

scheme to secure the national event for the
west, and he proposes that 1t shall be held in the
rooms Of the Chicago Athletic Association. With
this end i'll view he has opened negotiati lions with
all the leading amateurs in the country, and it is
understood several have promised to support the
project. The contest is to take place in Febru-

MISCELLANEOUS SPORTS

Although up official move has yet been made
toward arranging the international intervarsity
ford Cambridge for next summer in London,
there is every likelihood that the meet will be
held.
Harry s. Brooks Of Yale, who was chairman
Of the arrangement committee in charge Of the
match last year, said yesterday
at Is in order that match between the ath.
letes of Harvard and Yale and Oxford and Cam
bridge should take place next season at the
proper time arrives there will be trouble in
arranging the details. I see no reason why such
q contest should not take place In 1903. Per-
sonally, I have not been asked to make any
move in the matter yet, nor am I aware that
anything has been done officially at New Haven
or Cambridge. What has been printed in the
newspapers Is simply rumor and nothing more.
Probably later there will be meeting of the
Yale and Harvard representatives and not until
then will there be any definite news about the
contest
