~ large portion OF the pugilistic tai
ut Of this country Is likely to be in
Eagland by June 1. Messrs. Lea and
Gavin. the representatives Of the Ma
tSOnal Sporting Club of London, who
have come to this country to get ath-
letes for the sports of the coronation
festivities, evidently have enough
money at their disposal to make three
or four matches among leading Ameri-
can fighters.
Although 1t has been reported that
the Englisbmen wanted Fitzsimmons
and Jeffries as attractions, it is hardly
likely they will pay the figure that
would be demanded by the champion
and the Cornishman. Fitz and Jeffries
already have an important engage
ment, and will probably be content to
fulfill it before making any further
plans.
It is fortunate for the fighters that
there is demand for their services in
England. A good field has just been
closed to the heavyweights by the ac-
ton of the authorities of Louisville.
Outside of San Francisco, Louisville
was the best stamping ground for
fighters, il six-round bouts in Chicago
and Philadelphia are excepted.

greatest racing seasons in the history
of the rrotting turf. There is scarcely
town or city in the United States
from one ~ TO the other that pos
sesses anything in the shape of rae
ing track that has not already claimed
dates for 1902 or are making arrange
mepts TO do so. Some idea of the mag
nitude of harness-horse racing in
America may be CLEANED from the fact
that nearly 1000 cities give race meet
ings that were officially reported last
season, and as many OF these gave
moreAthan one meeting. some as high
as seven, the grand total of meetings
was considerably over 1000, and very
conservative estimate Of the money
hung up by associations in purses will
place the figure in the neighborhood of
$1,000 900.

orally known in the theatrical profess
sion. was manager OF consequence in

reer began in the humble capacity of
prompter. Mrs. Fiske tells the fol-
lowing anecdote about him:
Davey was holding the book" one
night when most of the company were
very imperfect in their lines, and the
leading man knew less about what he
was doing and saying than any of the
others. He would sidel down to the
first entrance where Davey stood with
his prompt-book, and say, soto voce:
The word, my dear boy, the word.''
This happened SO often that Davey's
patience was taxed beyond endurance
The word, the word,'' he suddenly
yelled back. you want the book, the
book, and there it Island he threw i,
at the actors head
And there's the prompter," yelled
the manager, who had come back tc
find out the cause of the trouble, and
planting kick at Davey, landed hin
in the center OF the stage. The cur.
tain had to be rung down and the per.

Vanderbilt Is ShreMd.

Mr.. William X. Vanderbilt appears
to have AN ace in the hole" on the
native horse owners in France, and if
he wins an unusually large number Of
the races in that country this year it
should not be surprising to his friends
in America. The weather in France
has been extremely severe this winter
and no horses have been sent for gal
lops on the turf on tracks. Mr.. Van
derbilt had constructed a very large
shed, under which is a straw-covered
circle, with the turns well thrown up.
Over this his forty odd horses have
been sent at brisk gallops all winter,
and they are well up in their training,
while their prospective contestants are
very backward and will hardly be
ready at racing time.
