Announcement by directors OF the Fair
Association that a renewal was planned
Of the $4,000 Worlds Fair Handicap, has
aroused general interest in racing circles
throughout the country.
Not only do the officials Of the old
course in North ST. Louis plan to renew
the stake In 1905. but they also la a
desire to make It one of the fixtures OF
the season. They believe that such a
stake can well support itself and that it
can become the most important turf event
of the Western circuit.
The big race Of last une was q sue
cess in every way ave one-that Of track
conditions. Had the course been fast. the
number of starters woul certainly have
exceeded the thirteen candidates which
faced A. B. Dade. As it was. the race was
Undoubtedly the greatest ever witnessed
in this country over the lumpy conditions
Of track which prevailed.
As planned by the Fair Association. a
big stake will be carded, IL arrangements
DO not go amiss, to be run yearly. COM
mercing in 1906. The value of this event
will be $4,000. II 1t is decided to make the
contest q guaranteed fixture. or may be
greater. II the entries are such that 1t
can be made an added-money fixture.
The distance will likely be settled upon
at one mile and o~ne-quarter. This Is gen.
orally deemed the best route over which
to try the mettle of the h.gh-ciass horse.
Too far for the Splinter too short for
the simple plugger and distance runner,
the journey is conceded to be a good
route over which the merits or dement's
Of a take horse can be decided.
The event should be a handicap, in or
der to provide for an equal basis upon
which to assign penalties to the various
contestants. Conditions of the last race
made the event a handicap, with penal
ties OF six pounds attaching to those en-
tries which had won $3.50 twice or S2,5p
once. Horses which had won $500 twice
or 5000 once were pena.. zed nine pounds,
while these which had Won $4.0N twice or
$500 once were assessed an extra twelve
pounds.
In order to avoid undue buriening of the
highly weighted horses. Handicapped Ma
gin inserted a clause in the conditions
which provide that to those horses which
were weighted at liz pounds or more. the
penalties should applv only to twc-thirds
of the original figure. thus being reduced
by .: 1-2 Ger cent.
If entries were Handicapped ut 1O pounds
or over. penalties were reduced by two
thirds, n no penalty attached to those
which carried $50 pounds or over. In the
case of 3-year-olds. no penalty could cause
the weight to exceed LIS lit
These limitations are generally conceded
to be about as comprehensive as could be
desired, and to safeguard the interests of
all those likely to compete In such a raca.

Barney Furey Believes That a PugiTst, When Hopelessly Out

That many a fighter could win battles by

opinion of Barney Furey. the Cincinnati
boxer. who will be carded at the West

Furey has not fought here, but has made

EVENT A SUCCESS
The race proved a success in every re-
spect. Speaking OF the matter last week,
Secretary Hachmeister stated that tho
directors of the association believed that
such a contest would greatly increase in
terest in the racing game throughout the
country. that 1t would benefit the turf and
that 1t would make the solution Of tho
championship on the running turf an easy
matter from year to year.
while 1t has not been definitely de-
cided that the big race win be renewed"
he said. there Is every probability that
another sue event will be announced for

That constant punching and pounding
