.FERENO IS QUEEN OF
THE KENTUCKY MARES
She Shines Above All Horses in
Contest and Holds Two-Heat
Record.
HER RECORD BY YEARS
She Is the Only Winner of the
Double Renewal of the Ken
lucky 'Futurity.

LEXINGTON. KY, Jan. 23.-"She has
only to live and you will see her queen of
the trotting turf said Driver Ed Benyon,
of Millionaire l.. V. Harkness's great mare
Fereno yesterday. To the average patron
of the turf Fereno is as much of an idol
is Lou Dillon, the champion of all trot-
tiers. The latter has earned her honors
against the watch, Ferern has won her
laurels battling with giant trotters down
the quarter stretch. Seven seconds now
separate the trotting queen and the cham
pion race mare of to-day. iIt the latter in
actual contests against horses shines as far
above Lou Dillon as BiIings's great mare
does in time records over the pride of the
Hardness barn.
In no season during her entire career has
Fereno wintered in better form than this
year. AT all times an extraordinary good
doer, the daughter Of Moko seems to be
far better right now than ever before and
she has not given her trainer an anxious
thought since he pulled the harness off her
last fall.
Statistics compiled by trotting author
ity here shows Fereno one of the most SEN
sational of all trotting mares. She has a
two-year-old record of 2:17, a three-year-
old mark of 2:lOA. fve-year-od record
of 2:07% and six-year-old record of 2:O51z,
all scored in actual races in the hottest
kind of company. She has several best rec
ords already TO her credit. She is the only
winner of the double renewal of the Ken
lucky Futurity, both the two and three
year-old division of that classic stake. Her
mark of 2:O6$i at Oakley, o., was the race
record for 1893, and her mile at Memphis
Tenn, 2:O5h. is the worlds record for a
two-heat race trotted by mare to sulky
For five successive seasons, beginning as
two-year-old, Fereno has been raced She
has all told raced twenty three times and
has never yet been outside the money
FERENO'S RECORD BY YEARS
The following table shows Fereno's record
by years. Up to the close of 1903 she has
earned the handsome sum of So, ITO:

FANS GETTING ANXIOUS
They Want to Get Line on the
Players That Wear HOOsier

II seems as II the clubs OF the American
Association are delaying longer than usual
this spring IN sending out contracts to the
players. The indianapolis club expected
10 mail contracts TO all its players the first
OF the year. and now X Is announced that
the contracts will not b. sent out until
about Feb. 1. A few o. the old players have
been signed, but a majority OF the men
have not as yet affixed their signatures to
1904 contracts. There is plenty OF time to
get the men into the fold. but the fans
would like TO get line or The makeup of
the team. They have been wondering
whether the salary cutting threat that was
started in St. Paul would have any effect
on the indianapolis team. The Indianapolis
club VIII pay the players what they are
worth. and II is safe To say that they Will
all drop In line when the time comes.
The Denver papers are taking occasion to
roast George Tebeau. who has won his
fight for the Denver franchise, and now
