Mr.. John H. Shuts of Brooklyn, one
of the wealthiest and best known own
ers and raisers of light harness horses
in the United States, is registered at
the De Soto, and is looking over the
field here. with view to establishing
private wintering place for his large
stable of light harness horses.
Mr.. Shuts came to Savannah last
winter, and was so delighted with the
climate that he changed some of his
original plans and ordered a string of
twenty high class yearlings brought
here for the winter. So successful were
the results of this movement. that he
mas decided to establish, if possible
permanent winter quarters here. or
near here.
Mr.. Shuts said he would confer with
Mr.; ). j. Cheney his trainer, immedi-
ateiy, relative to bringing his entire
stable of trotters for the winter. and
hopes to have them located here early
IN the new year If proper accommoda.
lions can be secured.
although he realizes that the present
condition of the Savannah Racing AS.
sociation's track is very poor, he SAYS
ne believes it can be made one of the
best courses in the country.
While here last year Mr.. Shuts Ioolx-
ed at several available sites for the
establishment of winter training quar-
ters, but in each instance the premium
set on the places when it was discov-
cred they were desirable for this pur-
pose. persuaded him to hold off for a
time.

LEAGUE MEETING WILL NOT
BE HELD ON JANUARY 10
MCHESNEY WILL BE
PUT BACK IN TRAINING.

SON of MacduH Has Recovered from
Injured Foot.
Unless Sam Hndreth's mind under
goes change McChesney, the famous
son of MacDuff- Mahola Mason. will be
camEaigned next season.
Big Macs bad foot has been DOCTOR
ed and hardened. 1t will be given
special treatment all winter and it is
not altogether improbable that he will
be "prepped" for the flag end of the
Hot Springs meeting.
Two weeks ago IIildreth thought it
would be necessary to retire the horse
but constant Improvement since that
time has convinced Sam that Big
Mac will be as good as ever in
month or two.
E. E. Smathers and Hildreth were
keenly disappointed at the horses bad
showing in 1904 and they are anxious
that McChesney should regain his
lost turf laurels before his racing days
are finally ended.
McChesney, two years ago, was
thought to be the best horse in the
United States and the West stood
ready to bet a world of money that he
would clean up in all sections of the
country i'm 1904.
He is the ideal type of thoroughbred
Big, rangy and with long strides; a
light chestnut in color, he has the cour-
age of lion. He is a slow beginner,
but if he is within six lengths of the
leader at the head of the stretch will
come pretty near being bracketed.
If McChesney is taken East, as is at
present the intention If his owners. he

Last summer Cots Bros. sold him to

and he beat the best horses on the
Metropolitan circuit.
Like McChesney, he is big, rangy--
rather clumsy horse. with burning
speed and an ability to carry it for
any distance up to a mile and an
eighth. He is by First Mate--Manola
Mason. When the two sons of Manola
Mason meet, a horse race is assured if
both are in condition.

Powers.

The following is a paid advertise
ment which recently appeared in the
Salt Lake Bikuben, the Scandinavian
paper. We give it for what it's
worth:
"A little about Orlando W. Powers,
candidate on the democratic ticket
for congressman from Utah. Powers
came to Utah from Kalamazoo Mich,
and on the 18th of April, 1885, he was
appointed District l@dge in Utah by
President Grover Cleveland utah
at that time was not Il state, but a
territory
But when Cleveland sent Powers 5
name to the senate for confirmation
there was great stir about it. From
his home town in Michigan Il COM
munication of eighty-tve pages was
sent to the senate, containing a de-
Scriptlon of his escapadcs in said
state, and protest against his aD-
pointment to the judgeship IN Utah
The fight between the senate and
President Cleveland lasted about a
year, and at last Cleveland had to
take Powers's name back and appoint
another. The Mormons took no part
in the fight against Powers
AFTER this Powers took up the
fight against the MormonS and be-
came the leader of the Mormon.eating
Liberal party, which in 1890 won the
fight in Salt Lake City by using
everything but fair means. For this
work the Liberal party paid Powers
ten thousand dollars.
Powers is now candidate for con-
gresham of Utah ON the democratic
ticket; but when the people of Mich-
gan did not consider him worthy TO
be a Judge in Ctah, and when the SEN
ate did not sanction his appointment,
it is not likely that he will be able to
do any good for Utah in congress"
