The ancient gods and goddesses,
lovers of natural beauty, ancient and
modern and particularly the poets,
have loved the frail windfower, and
around it cluster many charming as
sociations and legends. It's Greek
name, "anemone," means wind
shaken" One Of the popular fancies
about the flower is expressed in these
lines:
The coy anemone, that neer uncloses
Her lips until they are blown on by the

The wrestling bout which took place at

lingame. both of that city, for the heavy
weight championship of the south, was won
by the former, why SECURED two falls The
first fall went to -Burlingame on fluke
in one minute. Link won the second fall
in eight minutes. apd the third in eight
minutes and twenty Seconds. The bout was
one of the most interesting ever witnessed
in that city.
At the call of time Link turned to say
something to the referee, when Burl ngame
rushed and before Link could recover him
self secured a. fall. In the second bout.
both men roughed and tumbled all over the
mat before Link secured quarter Nelson
and far-side Nelson. with which he gained
the fall Link again pinned Burlingame's
shoulders to the mat in the third bout with
a hammer lock and crotch hold.
The winner of the bout was challenged
by Mr. Kennedy on behalf of Dan Mcleod,

AUTO SPEED TRIALS.
Machines for the International Contest
to Race at Ormond Beach.

Speed trials of the American racing cars
nominated for the international Gun con-
test in Germany. on June IL will not take
place on the Yirginia-North Carolina beach
course. This much at least was settled by
the tour of inspection of representatives of
the Automobile Club of America and
American Automobile Association to Vir-
ginia Beach.
Though it seemed to be the opinion of a
majority of the delegates who returned to
New York by boat yesterday from Norfolk.
Va, that in another month or six weeks
the Virginia course will offer possibilities
for speed worthy of further investigation
it was held that the race committee of the
Automobile Club of America cannot wait
until such time TO finally select the course
for the American cup trials. AS the mat
ter now stands these trials in so far as
some date between April 10 and April 80
on the beach at Ormond, Fla.
On the first day named a technical test of
the ma chimes is to be held in or near New
York city, and If that test results to the
satisfaction of the A. c. A. race committee
the speed trials will follow soon as prac-
ticable Though the Ormond beach was
the only course named for the latter, it was
understood that should more accessible
route be found where speeding could be in
dulged in without law breaking another
selection would be permissible.
An officer of the club yesterday said that
with the probable elimination of Virginia
Beach from consideration no other course
remains in sight at present save that at
Florida He intimated that some objection
had been expressed by club members to the
distance and time required in making the
trip to Ormond for speed trials that may be
completed within few hours, but declared
that if no other available course presents
itself in the next few weeks the speed pro-
gram will be carried out as at first planned.
Concerning the racing cars now under
construction for the international cup con-
test the Automobile Club of America Off
cialIy is as much in the dark as the public.
Messrs Peter Cooper Hewitt and Alden
Sampson. jr.. have notified the race com
mittee that their machines will be in readi-
ness in time for the trials. Mr.. Louis p.
Mooers wrote from Cleveland last week
that his Peerless entry would be ready for
inspection about March 30. Two similar
machines which Mr.. Mooers is constructing
will be finished at about the same time,
and the fastest of the three will be placed
at the clubs disposal.
