the very worthy and successful way In
which the National Steeplechase and
Hunt association is working toward i'm
proving this most interesting and most
picturesque branch Of sport.
Mr.. Tompkins' opinions are very In
teresting In answer to the question
of the comparative merits Of the anna
teur and professional riders Of the past
and the present he Is quoted:
1.-The steeplechase riders, both anna
teur and professional, we're much bet
ter ten or fifteen years ago than they
are today. We have no such amateur
riders now as we had fifteen years
ago. Why, they were veritable giants
Of the pigskin then. There were Jack
Cheever, George Work. E. G. La Mon
tagne, Elliott Zborowski Foxhall
Keene, Captain Thorne and last, but
not least, poor Harry HARDWOOD.
1.-The latter was, in my es Anation.
the greatest rider Of cross country
horses in America.
HE had perfect hands, a beautiful!
seat and was an excelleE< judge or
pace In a finish he was regular
whirlwind, a la Garrison. He was
brave to recklessness and would not
allow any horse to master him. 1t
was the latter spirit which brought
about his death. He determined to
master Warrenton, an erratic brute,
and in forcing him over fence was
thrown heavily and killed. Poor Har
~. His like has not been seen in the
saddle since. The amateur riders OF
today are far different from the old set

willing to take any horse offered him
for the sake of the sport. Your pres
ent day amateur is far different. how

less he scans the list Of entries over
the night before and selects the horse
which appears to him to have the best
chance. He does not care to ride for
the sport Of the thing. but Is out merely
for a grand stand display.
1.-THE present day professional, with
one or two exceptions, is very bad
The majority are more like butchers
than riders. At least half of them
must have three or four drinks in them
before they will accept a mount. They
are poor judges OF pace, and know
little or nothing Of how to assist a
horse through field. There are no
such riders now as George Sutcliffe,
Harvey Welch, Hugh Gaffney. John

Jimmy Mara, who rides for j. w.
Colt, my employer, is the best rider in
America. Jimmy is a wonder in his
way. He is thirty-eight years old and
the father Of ten children. He fairly
bubbles over with enthusiasm for hard
labor. He never complains, whether
he has to work twenty horses or two
horses. He takes everything that
comes along with a cheerful smile,
and is always ready to do little more
than is asked of him."

ventilistion of Passenger Cars.

Railway and Locomotive Engineerings,
 A very interesting and successful ex- pertinent in passenger car ventilating has been carried out or the Pennsyl- vania by Prof. c. B. Dudley. An ordi- nary coach holds approximately 1000 cubic feet of air and seats about SO persons. In order to have relatively pure air, the carbonio acid breathed out by human beings should not ex- ceed ? GU. 1t. in 10000 GU. f.. yet GU. 1t. in 10000 may be present as q maxt- mum and the ventilation be fairly de- scribed as good. This becomes ap- parent when it Is stated that an or- dinary closed coach often contains as much as from 15 to 20 GU. f. per 1o.- 900.
 The amount of carbonio acid given off per passenger per hour Is assumed to be 6 of one cubic foot. and with 60 in a car the total amount which they would produce in an hour would he Se GU. it. of carbonic acid per 10000 GU. 1t.
