The bowling last week was above the
ordinary and every team boosted it's pin
average. The average gain was 37k pins,
a strong indication of the steady advance
in bowling in Minneapolis. - =.
The defeat of the Tuxedas by the Tas-
! mos increased the chances of the Tur-
ners for winning the pennant in the
| league They are nowfour games ahead
of the Tuxedos, and the Tasmos are three
games behind the Tuxedos., It looks as
if these three teams would finish in-this
same order. If the Tasmos roll in such
| form as they did last week, however. they
| may pull down the Turner's when the two
teams meet March "A. s.. .
| The three leaders roll the three tail end
ers next week. and the Buffalo Olympia
contest next Monday night promises to
1 be the, most interesting contest Of the
week in the league. These two teams

win out. The schedule for the week fol-

EARLY RAGING HELPFUL
Trainer Madden Says Two Year-Olds
Are Not Injured by
. Work.

John e. Madden, the noted Kentucky.
turfman, declares that the early racing OF
2-year -o1ds is beneficial to the youngsters
instead of harmful. He cites as authorlty
for the opinion the fact that nearly a,
the great horses America has produced
were raced early in their 2-year-old FORM.
Among other things Mr.. Madden says
1.-The lack of starters to the fixed events
for 3-year-olds and upward IS not que
| to abuse of +2-year-olds by premature rae
ing, but to the fact that owners ana
breeders do not enter largely. but try to
select from their lot what look to be the
best as yearlings, and in most cases these
horses prove Of no account as racers.
! For instance, Whorler was entered lnstedd
! of Irish Lad, and the former is now
maiden where the latter is triple stake
tswinner The two crack 3-year-old racers
| Of 1902 Hermis and McChesney, were not
starters in the Realization and other 3
| vear-old events because they We're not
| eligible and not because they mad peen
! injured by early racing in their Z-year-
! old form. ..-
| From the entries in the big handicap
| inst closed Metropolitan, Brooklyn, Su-
burban and Brighton, do not see that
many horses have suffered from excessive
training as 2-year- -olds. We have no
/ track to accommodate half of them should
they start -..
has been talked of as the opening attrac-
tion at Belmont Park, when that magn1fl-
cent New York race course has been com
| pleted. + ~ i....
! Among the probable arrangements is
s1OO each half-forfeit, starters to pay $ioo
| additional. with s5OOOO added, Of which
$4,000 will go to second horse and $1,000
to the third horse.
| IT is understood that the West Chester
Racing association will make it a point to
offer the richest stakes to be run Tor at
the new track, and that the Belmont
stakes for instance. will be increased in
value to at least $4,000 if not $3O,000
with $50, 900 handicap on the cards as an
annual fixture. ..... -. .a.s l. -
1t is believed that many English and
French turfmen would send over horses
to compete, thereby making the race an
I international affair Of unusual interest IN
the turf world. l.-.3 ss>.5-e i~...s. !
King Edward has decided positively tc
send nine horses to America to take par1
in the races during the worlds fair which
will take place in st. Louis, Mo. @
The most Of them are for the grea1
Worlds Fair handicap, which his majesty
= is said to have remarked would give hilr
more pleasure to win just at this time
than any other event. He has witnessed
with much chagrin the failure of Sil
Z Thomas Upton to lift the yacht cup, anc
