care will not be wasted upon him or risks
taken in caring well for him.
At Is or thereabouts the boy will ride.
This will be the great day Of his life, and
he lives for It.
He is bound under contract with the
stable owner. In some cases to stay with
him until he is 81 years old.
This means that the stable owner will pay
him his own price until after the time OF
tho contract is expired and then the boy
will be at liberty to consider offers from
other race-horse owners.
The horse that is to run in an afternoon
race is watched all the morning with a
careful eye.
His ankles are wrapped, perhaps, in fan
mel bandages, for q reason that the trainer
knows, whether he cares to tell about it or
not.
And there are occasional rubbings and
wallings and minute inspections. The APP
petite Is noted at all times carefully, but
upon the racing day especially.
Just SO much must be eaten and no more.
and II there is sign that the horse is in
any but the pink Of condition the owner
sees that he is "scratched''-there will be
no running that day.
THE RACE HORSE A
DAINTY ARIsToCRAT.
TIE race horse is a dainty creature at his
meals. White his brother, the common
working horse, can hardly get enough to
satisfy his appetite, the high-bred racer
scarcely viii take food enough.
The best Of oats are prepared for him
sifted and sifted again, that there may be
no grit or gravel to displease his taste or
disagree with him.

, The horss that was left at the posi-
well he has hung his head and gone can
tering back to his stall looking very
sheepish.
Then there Is another race. and another.
and another. all the long summer after
noon. with incidents much like those be-
longing to the first, and all over the coun-
try the same thing Is going on wherever
the owners Of big racing stables elect to e.
tablish themselves for period and enter
their horses to run.
Wires fash all over the country the news
Of what tho horses are doing. until even the
one most Indifferent to horse racing must
celebrated of the great rscers and watch
their careers with interest.
There are big racing stables in st. Louis.
Out at the Delmar track. the Fair
Grounds and at Kinloch. during the height
OF the season, there are, all told. between
eight hundred and a thousand aristocrats of
the horse world. s.
There is no horse among them without his
family tree and pedigree. but. being without
speech. one is spared the boredom of listen

DAILY LIFE OF A FEW
GREAT RACERS
All OF interest does nc: begin and end on
the race track where the high-bred racer n
concerned. Behind the scenes at the race

The stables out at the Delmar track appear

And yet to such an end many spirited
racer has come.
His day on the turf is only short one.
and. as IL conscious of this he makes the
best Of the luxuries that are afforded him
and Is creature of moods. with dozen
willing vassals dancing attendance upon his
| majesty.
Stable owners watch with care their prop
| erty. Captain Rice inspects his stable daily
at Delmar. Captain Rice is familiar figure
about the grounds every morning, with his
big umbrella to shsd de him from the scorch-
ing sun.
From stall to stall he goes. and knows ex-
actly just what is doing among his horses
and what to expect Of them.
Colonel G. c. Baker makes daily round
and watches with admiring eyes the trim
little beauties thatjwaIk UP and down with
a small boy in the lead, or poke their sleek
noses OUT Of the stall for caress. Colonel
Baker knows good piece Of horse flesh.
and knows. too. just how much to depend
upon each horse in his stable.
ADMIRING FRIENDS SEE
THE HORSE START.
When horse starts from the stable. and
trainer and small boy watch her going with
admiring eyes. there IL strong faith in her
winning ability.
II she wins the ride. there is happiness In
the stables.
Maybe not man about, has put dollar
upon the horse. but there is q sort Of family
pride in her winning.
Back she comes to her stall. to be called
by all sorts Of pet names. to be rubbed down
with great care and to be walked up and
down. to cool on. az gently as a child.
And. again. when hope has been running
high that there would be great race. and
that the particular star from particular
stable would win It. when this horse goes
wrong 1t the start or something untoward
happens to cause her to lose. there u sad
meas about the stable. and the detected at
titude Of the horse upon return seems to
say: well. don't blame me. Though I'm q
