BARON %ROTHSCHILD
MAY RACE HERE
So Says Count Felix de Cholet,
Director of French Jockey
Club, Who Visited Delmar
Track Yesterday.

According to Count Felix de Cholet, a d.
rector of the French Jockey Club, and for
several seasons a w~ell-known figure on
the Partisan turf, there is every probable
ity that a stable will be sent to this city
next season by Baron Rothschild. to take
part in the local events.
This announcement was made yesterday
when the Count and Countess visited the
Delmar track as the guests Of Mrs. S. W.
Adler n were entertained at the club
house. They were accompanied by Ella
Wheeler Wilcox, and the trio were es-
corted about tn. grounds by directors Of
the institution.
Count de ChoIet was accompanied also
by William Coster, his secretary. who
served as Interpreter when the Count be-
came confused over the in~tricacies of
racing terms. Although speaking Dnglish
show" e" %aero.s sa sSs beard" as and p' other
parts Of the racing vernacular eemed to
perplex the Partisan visitor.
In speaking Of the local game, the Count
completeness which prevailed on Amer
lean courses.
I'VE are accustomed to the open tracks"
he said. where the infield may lie across
fields which are cultivated at other times.
Your system here is grand. 1t avoids the
rabbie which always congregates near

thing I never saw at an English course.
In Britain all il turmoil and confusion
after each race. Here everything il done
L ,clockwork. It is immense. I would
like to have this system on our side Of the
water. But IL we fail in that, we can do
the next best thing; we can be represent
ed here next season.
Il believe that some Of our leading own
er1 will race In America next year. The
Baron de Rothschild is anxious to Ia
his stable represented here. and I am Ger.
tain that II he ships to America he will

met Mr.. and Mrs. Adler when they were
abroad last season. and I regret that we
were unable to have some representative
in the Worlds Fair Stake"
Members Of the Partisan party and Ella
Wheeler Wilcox seemed greatly interest
ed in the racing game, and paid a visit
to the paddock, where they inspected the
horses in their stalls. The visit to the
0addlfng place caused much interest among
the habitues Of the paddock, and the par
ty was the center Of attention while in
the domain Of the paddock Judge.
Count de Cholet stated further that the
only reason the foreign stables had not
been more strongly represented here be-
fore was the fact that 1t was only lately
that the perfect order of the American
system of racing had become known.
The Count and Countess will remain
here for several days. An informal en-
tertainment in their honor will be given
by Mrs. Adler later.
