Her Dope Is Good.

A great many of those who have att
tended the racetrack during the past
week and have hung about the betting
ring any, have noticed that there is no
more persistent "piker" than a little
old lady who is always there and never
misses getting up a little money on
every number on the card. Whether
she wins or loses one can never tell
by the expression of her face, any
way. She is the terror of the touts,
as she is continually giving them the
bad eye, and if there is one thing a
tout dislikes more than another it is
two bad eyes.
Several of the more superstitious
players out there have taken to watch
ing what horse the woman plays and
use it for the dope. in placing their
own money. The old lady got up a
whole heap of money on Gladys Bell
when she walked home a winner and
the rush to get money down on the lass
was the result at the start of the old
lady's getting q bunch that there was
nothing to it but Gladys. =

Rufe Turner fight.

The boxing contest scheduled for next
Friday night at the Seattle armory be.
tween Jack McClelland, the crack east
ern fighter, and Rufe Turner, is expect
ed to prove about the most interesting
fight that it has been the good fortune
of the boxing patrons of Seattle to wit
ness. This is saying good deal, in
the face of the good fight put up at
the Seiger-Tulner go, but Manager Ma.
son, who looks after McClelland, says
there is bigger surprise in store for
Rute than when he stacked up against
the Italian, whom "Billy' Roche has in
tow. McClelland, who is over at Matt
Dee's in West Seattle, is about the
hardest worker who has ever done
any training in this locality. Tommy
Reilly, Perry Queenan and Dick Green
can bear witness to this fact. Eddie
Hanlon, who had all he asked for. in
the way of terms acceded to by Nc
Clelland and then fuked out, must have
got wind that Jack is hard PROPOSE
ton. and then refused to come. Tommy
Reilly. who is well known as cork
er when at himself. will meet Billy
Harris of the flagship New York at
the same time. This will be good
trial bout to see if the hand which
Reilly hurt some time ago is all right
If it is, he will be taken back east
where Mason says he can about whip
anyone near his weight.

Herrera the Favorite.

The coming battle at Vancouver, B.
b., on October Is between Louie Long
and Aurelia Herrera is attracting strong
attention in local sporting circles.
Longs showing in the recent bout with
Memsic there seems to have added ii
Phost TO his following who are willing
to back him against the Mexican. One
well known sport yesterday offered to
bet $1,000 even money that Herrera
would not win inside II rounds When
it is considered that the Mexican de.
siends on a Knockout punch to win
the wager appears a strong one. In
asmuch as Longs adherents claim if
Herrera does not win in ten rounds
their man will wear the Mexican down
lfPre the limit, if he does not knock
MIN out. Betting in local commission
resorts favors Herrera at odds of to
on the general result of the fight.
but there seems a growing feeling
among the knowing ones that a surprise
Is in store for the Bakersfield Won
der" Herrera will leave west Seattle
next Wednesday for the battle-ground.
Local parties have arranged for a spe-
cial boat to run over on the day of the
contest.

IS
THE REAL
THING

Concerning the winning of The Fid-
dler at Westminster week ago there
is whole lot of smoke and very little
fire, says the New York World.
A piteous wall from the west
given. Then followed the widest of
stories to the effect that The Fiddler
was none other than Mcnamara, who
had been rung for Hiram johnson at
New Orleans last winter.
The yarns also embodied the alleged
facts that long haired men from Nevada
came out of the woods to bet on The
Fiddler, and that they were the same
men who had bet on Hiram johnson
when he won at New Orleans.
According to Geographic reports, the
losses of the western pool rooms footed
up $500 coo. Divide this amount by six
and it will be nearer the truth.
The Fiddler, or horse alleged to be
The Fiddler, was brought into the pal
peck at Westchester yesterday after
noon. Competent men said that he
was not Mcnamara. They knew Me
Namara and he bore no resemblance to
the horse then in the paddock. Other
men who had seen The Fiddler race in
San Francisco said that if that was the
horse they had seen then he had grown
heavier. so that is the situation TO date.
No one knows positively if The Fid-
dler is the horse that raced in Frisco,
but half ad Oxen will swear he is not
Mcnamara.
| If the horse which won on Saturday
is a ringer" then he is the poorest
ringer that has ever been sent to the
post. When men are contemplating a
steal with a "ringer" they make sure
that there will be no mistake and that
the ringer" will greatly outclass his
company.
| The Fiddler won by the shortest of
noses In fact, Flora was coming so
fast at the end that the judges could
have decided her the winner and there
would have been no kick.
Any ringer that Flora can run to
head is not much account. Turfmen
| at Westchester seem to agree that The
| Fiddler was simply an extensively
touted good thing that was sent to the
post chock full of dope and just man
aged to win.
| The stories of big losses In the west
are laughed at. For instance, Harvey
& Darouz of San Francisco are re-
ported to have lost $4,000. Califor-
mans who know these men say they
wouldn't take chance of losing $4,000
unless they had an ace in the hole.
Big losses are reported from st. Louis
There are no pool rooms there Most OF
the money bet at Westminster was d
commission of $1,000 which OLeary Of
Chicago wired to have on Dave MITCHELL
head of the racing bureau of the West;
ern Union Telegraph company.
The fact that The Fiddler opened al
20 to and closed at 90 to in the betl
ting is proof positive that no sucS sum
as 100000 was won at WestchesterI
Not more than 100000 was taken OUT
of the ring.

WHERE ARE
FOOTBALL
STARS?

As usual there will be few games
between eastern and western football
teams this fall, and the old question
of supremacy will be indulge in far
into the winter months by eastern and
western critics. For years western
elevens have claimed that they were
equal to those of the east, but the best
teams representing tn two sections
of the country in football have seldom
met.
Coach Stagg of the University of Chi
cago. with his usual energy, has pre-
pared an ideal schedule this year.
Games with West Point and Cornell
have been arranged, and from these a
good comparison may possibly be made
of the strength of the teams represent
ing the east and the west.
Michigan, Minnesota, Chicago and
Wisconsin are looked upon as the lead
ing western teams, and Cornell and
West Point, by their showing of last
wear, demonstrated that they were equal
to some of the teams among the big
four of the eastern universities.
All of the western teams of impor-
uhNC nave thtII SCUeuulcS arranged, So
CHAT there will be little doubt as to
(Which is the champion when the sea-
4on is over. The fight will probably
narrow down between Chicago and
Michigan, for Stagg claims he will have
team that will put out the Wolver-
ines
In the east West Point will meet
both Harvard and Yale, and Cornell
will have her usual brushes with Prince
ton and Pennsylvania. West Point
had one of the strongest teams in the
east last year. and as the West Point
Yale. West Point Chicago and Chicago
Michigan games are all played within
one month, the football critics may
be able to pick the team which has
made the best showing of the season
Such comparison, of course. as in
years past, will be Obvious to eastern
critics and any claims made by the
west will be turned down with the
same grace az before.
The time is not far distant when
paraes will be arranged to settle this
question. COMPARISONS. at best. are
.opla predetermined and seldom hold
good but college men in general who
apeI fair-minded would like to see the
Championship of the country proved
eonelusivelv rathe~ than have critics
laughing about it for months after the
season closes.

Parson Davies Again.

MT. CLEMENS, Mich, Oct. l2.--
Charles Z. Davies, better known as
PEARSON" Davies, says "The first fight
] ever witnessed was in my native coun-
try, Ireland, when / was a small bit
of lad. 1t was between an Orange
man and Catholic, and bitterness ran
high" Young Davies had possessed
himself of s pounds of his fathers mon
iey and he bet this sum on the Cath
Ollie and won, and from that day to this
he has been follower of pugilism.
1nferentially, Parson Davies said that
the next big fight to attract public
attention will be between Corbett and
Fitzsimmons.

BUXTON HAS
THE BEST
RECORD

Perhaps there Is no Jockey in the
west who is more liked than little Bux-
ton. who on Royalty won the Spokane
derby for Harry Green's stable. The
little fellow has won some fine races
and last Saturday especially he COW
cred himself with glory by riding four
winners and getting one second. It's
a record he can we'll be proud of, as
he rode against some good jockeys and
good mounts. 1t will be interesting TO
the race followers to know just how
the boys started as regards races won,
seconds and thirds. 1t will be seen
that Buxton leads all the bunch easily.

Parson Davies is somewhere between
so and 60 years old, but he is as shy
about telling his age as an old maid.

Leaves for the West.

Martin Candle has left Fail River,
Mass, for San Francisco, where he
meets the winner of the Britt-Seiger
contest, October l6. Candles manager
says:
Britt got busy and sidestepped Cans,
but Candle is on deck and will give him
all the fight he wants. My man is not
handsome. but he can go some, and !
venture that he will punch Mr. Britt's
head off if they ever meet in the ring.
We will not ask for split purse,
either, if we lose, for we are out for
the money, and want 1t all or nothing
Manager Willie Britt said the other
day, when his attention was called to
the talk made by Candles manager:
II know that Candle is a lad who
has come to the front rapidly. Billy
Roche tells me he is good one, and
his record certainly speaks well for his
prowess. He has whipped Keefe, and
has a decision over Danny Duane, the
hard hitting New Yorker, and these
two matches should entitle him to seri-
ious consideration at the hands Of any
lightweight in the country. But I have
confidence In Jmmy's ability to put
him away, and if his manager comes
to me with winner take-all PROPOSE
ton he will find that l am a man
after his own heart, and will be ready
to affix my name and deposit a forfeit
on the strength of articles for just such
a mill"

Some Facts About Babies.

A baby serves manifold purpose
In the world. He makes men and
women more unselfish and furnishes
the amount of trouble necessary to
keep them comfortably busy. He sane
tifes home and gives the doctor an
excuse to look wise. A well.ordered
well-born baby with a red face and
a bald head is a delight, particularly
when he belongs to a friend, and
doesn't spend nights in your neigh
borhood.
Every baby is the prettiest baby in
the world, and 1t can be proven by
his mother. A baby that won't cat
carpet tacks, brass.headed nails and
young kittens is a mistake. Babies
are bosses and boodlers. They con-
troll the first ward, along with the
twelfth, rule outrageously over the
counties and take everything that
comes their way without asking any
questions. All babies are supposed,
quite properly, to come from heaven,

The Man That Laughs

I love the ringing music of a CHEEKY,
hearty laugh,
For 1t routs the imps of worry as the
breezes scatter chaff.
And there's not n scene of gladness
known to mortals here below
But Is made little gladder by merry
no! no! ho!
ter is his song,
And where the singer singeth the
happy angels throng,
For in all celestial anthems nothing
sweeter Is, l trow,
Than the melody that lures us in a no!
no! no! no! no!
You are feeling rather weary-'tis an
oft-recorded tale
And you fancy troubles demons all
are camping on your trail,
Till you meet the man of laughter with
his cherry no! no! no!
And, some way, as you listen, all the
haunting demons go;
Then you vow that this old planet is a
place of JOY and cheer,
And there's pleasure in rejecting that
you now are living here
And you wouldn't for fortune lose
your grip on things below
All because you hear the music of a
