the other one.

Yesterday was another day of sensations
in the worlds record breaking line at Mem
phis. One of the largest crowds of the
meeting was i'll attendance and witnessed
three memorable performances Driven oy
Myron McHenry against time, Dan Patcn,
1.5GA. the pacing king reduced the haif
mile record for PAGERS, 0.51la established by
Prince Alert at Providence Saturday. to o6
seconds. The fleet son of Joe Patchen also
lowered his own worlds wagon record for
PAGERS, 1.J9A. made at Lexington recently,
to 1.57A. Major Delmar, f. F.. Smathers
champion trotting gelding, driven by Alta
Mcdonald, reduced his mark of 200 fiat to
1.59%.
Dan Patch was paced by two runners.
Scott Hudson driving the leader, as was
also Major Delmar. Dan Patchs records
were made within half an hour of each
other. The weather conditions were ex-
cellent light breeze, which had pre-
vailed during the day, lulled considerably
by the time of the pacing kings start.
Preceded by his runners, Dan Patch jog
ged past the stand and around to the half
mile pole where he scored beautifully and
started for home. The wonderful PAGER
flashed by the quarter pole in o2S112. W NIth-
out a falter he turned into the stretch ana
made for the wire. The immense croWd
burst of speed the handsome horse shot un-
der the wire in 0.oS fiat.
Thirty minutes later he was brought out
again. this time harneSSed to d white regu-
Ia ton wagon. He scored without delay ana,
paced by the two runners, started on the
long Journey to lower his record to wagon
The first quarter was negotiated In o29Hs,
the half mile in G.5S1a. and the three-quar-
ters in 12S. Finishing strong and without
once faltering in his stride, the son of Joe
Patchen passed the timers stand in the re-
markable time of 1.51ll.
Another splendid ovation was accorded
the plucky performer by the enthused spec
tators Myron McHenry was not forgotten
by the cheering throngs.
Later Major Delmar was brought out and
sent against his mile record. The son of
Del Mar stepped the quarter in 0.30, the
half mile in 1.G0 the three-quarters in 1.2.ftl
and the full mile, without the slightest in
dica ton of fatigue. in 1.59A thereby clip
ping Il quarter of a second from his former
mark. Horse and driver were enthusiastic
cally applauded. Mr.. Smathers stood on
the track and witnessed the trial. He was
highly pleased, and smiled b1andly on his
congratulating friends.
There were nine races carded for yeSter-
days sport, including the classic TranSyl-
mulia. in which dozen long-eared quad
rupeds faced the starter Ed Geers, driving
Bardo. a small mouse-colored mule, won
the laughable contest, and received a hand
some silver cup. Millard Sanders. plotting

FOOT BALL TRY OUT.
Ex-Pigskin Stars Winning in the Game
of Life

A Philadelphia paper undertakes to show
that foot ball players achieve success after
graduation and that their struggles on the
gridron help to prepare them for winning
III the game of life 1t will hardly be de-
MED that the training a youth gets on
first-class college eleven is beneficial to
him in "a ma jority of ways: at the same
time, the Quaker city paper does not eX-
actly make out case, for when one scans
the long list of names it prints of erstwhile
stars who are now struggling to advance
toward the goal of distinction he finds few
names that are famous. Billy" Bull, as
he was known in Yale, is now conceded to
be one of the most successful physicians in
Greater New York yet possibly this fact
might not be known generally had it not
come out in connection with the interest he
maintains in Yale athletics. great many
of the others are achieving commercial or
professional success; several won fame and
two gave up their lives in the Spanish war.
but 1t SO happens that national
fame has come to few of the
gridiron heroes after getting out
into the world strife. At the same time
this does not mean that foot ball stars may
not yet supply future leaders of the nation.
The now popular college game is still COM
paratively young, and it is hardly fair to
Judge of statistics of the kind a present.
DR.. Thomas Arnold. the noted head master
of Rugby once said: "The men who are

Hudson just noses out the veteran Ed
Geers. who has won more than $4,000.
The nearest winner to these skiIlful reins-
men are w. L. Snow, who has won $50 500
and Jack Curry. with $40, 800
The others who havehw more than S10.-
600 are Ben Walker. with s19S75 to his
credit; B. Doble, with .S12 eco to his credit,
r. Miller and w. Cox, with a trifle over
$4,000 each to their credit.
Despite the big stable which represented
Hudson on the circuit. Geers held his own
pretty we'll. as the bulk of his winnings was
captured by one horse. e. f. Smathers' Billy
Buck which alone won more than S31 900.
Hudson has many consistent winners.
and unlike Geers had mo particularly big
winner. E.
The principal winners in Hudson's stable
were the roam trotter Hawthorne, which
captured the rich Bonner Memorial at
Brighton Beach. defeating Billy Buck and
others; Jay McGregor added S11,1J0 to Hud-
sons winnings; Dillon Boy won $500; Belle
Kuser, s., ,225; Rhythmic, 5000, and Guy
Fortune, 81. 600.
Hudson's stable winnings are far behind
his record of last year. as that season his
horses won a total of $50. .44o. This Is the
second year that Hudson has led his rivals
As Hudson never let's a good thing go
by without betting a few hundred. there Is
no doubt that he has added considerably 10
his fortune by the amount he has taken out
of the pool box.
Although Hawthorne captured the win
ner's share of the Bonner Memorial S2oooo
stake from the favorite. Hudson bought
pooIs worth more than 81 600 for less than
500
This race alone netted him many thou
sands outside of the stake money.

SPORT FOR SPORTS SAKE.
Win-at-All-odds Spirit in American
Games.

In recent magazine article E,llery III.
Clark the all-around athletic champion,
decries the win-at-all-od spirit which
seems to permeate many branches of sport
and longs for more of the spirit of sport for
sports sake. John l.. Low, captain of the
oxford and Cambridge Golting Society team
that visited this country last summer said
that among number of players he had
come in contact with on this side of the
water the object of winning seemed to be
their prime reason for playing. In every
branch of sport-in fact, in every game Of
a competitive character-there can be found
persons willing to stretch a point to win
regardless of the fact that in so doing they
are violating the rules. The base ball
player who gets away with a slick play,
the foot ball player who will break every
rule if he thinks the officials will not see
him. the tenpin expert who knowingly rolls
with an overweight and oversize ball, the
golfer who conveniently forgets to count a
stroke or two the track amateur who runs
for money and poses as an amateur, and
the man who has the marked card in the
pack are all tarred with the brush of I'M
fairness. These are the men who create
most of the trouble in sport, and who are
to put it plainly. the ''grafters' of the
sporting world. Stringent rules strictly en-
forced will doubtless minimize their num-
berS, but what is needed most OF all is the
cultiva ton of spirit of true sportsman
ship. When this spirit permeates our sports
and pastimes there will be far fewer storms
on the athletic horizon than there are at
present.
