their lot in life. After they have eaten

THE AMERICAN DERBY.

With all its trumpery pretensions, its shoddy mita-
ton of society and its vain exploitation of the field of

once a year in making of big affair. The
American Derby is undoubtedly big turf event. the
biggest, all things considered in this country. There
other that worth to the winner and
some other events quite largely attended but for
widespread interest among horse owners in the great
breeding districts of the country there is of the
race events that touches the Washington park affair.
Ihe English Derby has developed in the Of
many years, but it Cockney holiday rather
than great racing event The great value of the prize
and the fame that is by the Derby winner make
horse eager try for the stake but there are
other in England that attract greater attention
from the exclusive breeders. All England watches

marked by great trials, the Derby and university
roMing match. l..
~ We of the West are growing to our Derby, but it
must be admitted that taking to it kindly Horse
have been inspired get better results by the
possibilities held the breeder of Derby winner
1t is tremendous thing for comparatively unknown
horse, like the winner of yesterdays to win
such field in the presence of 10000 wildly enthusiastic
admirers of the horse and take down stake worth al
most $4,000. 1t brings the horse his and jockey

of Americans the ruler of the turf and his
rich men-f they backed their entry
Let then admit that Chicago is not altogether
