contest this afternoon, with the honors

front on runs. Thirty-eight hits were

Ardent followers of the racing game are

Among hOrsemen these will be more

Only the fairest and most gracious

MacdOnough, the last owner of the IA

In 1889 the stallion was sold to Senior
Bocan of Buenos Ayres. Later Mr..
Macdonough bought him for $140O 600.
He was taken to the MenlO stock farm.
Here the stallion was something Of
disappointment, for he left few de-
scendants. In England. however, he
had sired Orme, a Derby winner.
While at the Menlo farm OrmOnde
was afflicted with paralysis and be-
came a pathetic picture of a fallen
monarch. HObbling about painfully in
his paddock, he would sometimes try
to toss his magnificent head that once
lifted so proudly. The legs that once
seemed Of steel weakened under him.
Even if horses have not memories the
dimming eyes of OrmOnde seemed to
tell in their sorrOwful looks that he did
not forget the glOries of his past.
Realization of his fallen state also
seemed expressed in those mOurnful
eyes.
At last the sight became so pitiful
that Mr.. MacdOnough ordered the king
of the turf put out of his misery. But
his relics will be preserved and no
doubt handed from generation to gen.

Boy Arrested for stabbine.

George Bond, II years of age, resid-
ing at 576 Shotwell street, was taken
into custody last night and booked at
the Sevententh-street station on a
charge of an assault with a deadly
weapon. 1t is alleged that he stabbed
Walter Robinson, a lad of the same
age, with a pocketknife, infiicting a
serious wound in the thigh. AS the
result of the affray the Robinson boy
is compelled to use crutches. The
crime was committed on Shotwell
street on Thursday and Bond was sur
rendered into the custody of the police
last night by his father. Bond says
the cutting was accidental. According
to his version Robinson attempted to
burn him with a match and he thrust
at Robinson with pocketknife. In
some manner the blade struck Robin
son in the thigh.

Thomas fight, as he did whatever
punching happened to be done, but the
judges We're even up in their opinions
and Referee Alec Greggains refused to
name the winner, so a draw was the
result
Thomas did all the leading and was
not hit three good punches in the first
three rounds of the battle. Wolfe
seemed TO fear his man and devoted
most Of his time to holding on. Thomas
landed repeatedly to the head and body
with lefts and rights and staggered
Wolfe on two or three occasions.
Wolfe, however, endeavored to redeem
himself by making a fast finish. and
il was his showing in the final round
that caused the judges to be divided
in their opinions.
Willie Wolfe, brother to Teddy, was
treated in the same manner when he
hooked up with clever Jack Grey. Grey
had his man buffaloed for three rounds,
but Wolfe came fast in the last period,
when Grey seemed to be tiring. 1t
should have been Grey's fight, but
again the judges were at variance and
this mill also went as a draw.
Lew Powell caught Jack Hughes a
short hook in the stomach in the third
round of their mixup and Hughes sank
10 the floor helpless. Up TO that time
Hughes great cleverness stood by him
and he was leading Powell by many
lengths. The knockout punch was. one
of the prettiest ever Seen in an anna
teur contest.

Dunn low with a punch on the jaw
in the third round. Billy Howe, a SOL

strength and no knowledge of the

stunts in order to keep the bout going.

FAMOUS TROUT big MIKE
TAKEN BY VOGELSANG
Tor Years He Had Been AngIed for
by the SpOrtsmen Who Fished
Big Meadows.

Big Mike. a famous trout at Big
Meadows, has fallen a victim TO the
angling skill Of Alex 7. VOgelsang. the
Heu-known lawyer.
For years this trout, which weighed
niue pounds, has been one Of the sights
at the Meadows. Each morning he ap-
peared at a certain point near the
bridge. His habits were so regular
that his name was carved in the rail-
ing Of the bridge above the point at
which he was invariably seen. The
hotel guests were accustomed TO visit
the bridge each morning for a view Of
the splendid trout
The cleverest anglers tried their
daintiest Benn flies on him and also
their gaudicst. but he turned up his
aristocratic nose al all their offerings.
il remained for Mr.. Vogelsang 10 find
an Oriental tidbit at which he snapped
greedily, TO his sorrow. The hotel cat
killed mouse, and something
prompted Mr. Vogelsang to present this
10 his troutship.
He let il float lazily down stream
and Big Mike espied it. He gulped it
down at one swallow and with it the
bsrbed hook from which there was no
escape.
The anglers feel as though they had
lost an old friend in the passing Of
Big Mike"
