nTOD" SLOAN MAY
 RIDE NEXT SEASON License Sought from the, Eng
 fish Jockey Club WORLDS POPULAR JOCKEY A Leading Young Turfman Desires SIoan's servIces-crltcism of
 Steward for Starting Stake
 Horse in Selling Race.
WORLDS POPULAR JOCKEY

From the New York World.
 There is a chance that Tod Sloan, the greatest rider that ever sat astride of a thoroughbred in America and Eng land. will receive a license next spring from the English Jockey club stewards. several influential turfmen of this coun- trv and of Great Britain will make per- sonal application to the turf authorities abroad in order that Sloan may be rein- stated.
 This move is the result of the great scarcity of good jockeys at present. With big fields in nearly every event during an afternoon, the demand for riders of skill far exceeds the supply
 There are only three or four jockeys in the east that may be elassed as artists" The remainder, in the parlance of the track, are only ."third-raters' and "dubs." None of the present riders compares with Sloan in ability. When at the zenith of his fame he was ina class by himself.
 Several horse owners who in the past were eager to secure Sloans services are now anxious to obtain them again. Dur ing the season just closed these men lost several valuable stakes by the blunder- ing work of their riders, and they are seeking riders of known ability on whom they can rely.
 A prominent owner, whose father at enc time was the most noted and popular patron of the turf in America had a long talk with Sloan on the subject of obtaining license for him at the Aque-

quct track on Friday. This horseman, 1t was learn d, agreed to dc his best to have the English Jockey club extend It's favors to Sloan. As this young turfman Is a multismfllionaire and his father raced extensively abroad for several years. horsemen believe that the English stewards will grant his request particu- larly as no charges of fraud have ever been made against Sloane
 It is nearly three years since Sloan had his license revoked as a jockey in England.' At the time his permission to ride was rescinded Sloan was the premier jockey of Europe.

 This incident, greatly exaggerated, per- haps, caused lot of talk detrimental to American turf interests abroad and he soon had his license withdrawn. As the French and American Jockey clubs will not grant a license to a rider when once his application has been rejected by the English turf authorities, Sloan has since been debarred from rlUing in the three great countries wnere horse racil

 A reporter for The World asked Sloan yesterday if it were true that an effort would be made to secure his reinstate- ment and he replied:
 "Yes. several. influential turfmen have spoken of me on the subject, and hope they will succeed. I am down and out practically, and think I ought to have chance to earn living. think I have been punished long enough, for I was never charged with fraud.
 T have no criticism to offer against the English Jockey club stewards. They are all estimable turfmen of high character, and I believe they have meant to be fair and impartial in all their rulings in regard to my case, even though severe.

EXODUS OF IRISH.
Are Leaving the Old Country at the
 Rate of 2ooo a Week.

Washington Cor. New York Tribune.
 United States Consul Stephens, at Ply mouth, England, says in recent re- port:
 ''The British press has called special attention during the last month to the continued. and what they term alarming, flight of the Irish and Cornish to Amer ica. Over g, ,OOO have gone from Ireland alone during the present year, and the exodus, which has received an impetus from the cheap fares, goes on without interruption.
 '.There is, it is asserted, no greater menace to Ireland's future than this ap- palling drain of immigration. It is draw ing out of the country the best Of it's peasant class for Amersca, and leaving the undesirables behind.
 Never before have the Irish people manifested such determination to leave their country. At present they are leav- ing at the rate of 2000 per week. and nc argument to keep them in their has the slightest effect.
 ''The same conditions, though in a mod. flied form, apply to Cornwall The min. ing industry at home is dead. In tn, British colonies conditions are not at al favorable. hence the weekly exodus to America. Those already in the United States send home money as rapidly as possible to assist their relatives and con- panions in Cornwall to follow"

Mississippi 12, Nashville 5.

Mmphis, Tenn. November 19.-In the hardest fought game on the local grid Iron this season the University of Missis- sippi (oxford) eleven defeated the Uni versity of Nashville eleven by the score of 12 to 5. Poor headwork on the part of the quarterback was in the main re- sponslble for the defeat of Nashville. Captain Dood of Mississippi was the bull wark of defense for the Oxford team, while his rival, Captain Elgin, was the star of the garnet and blue until he was put out of the game by a vicious cut over the eye. He was half conscious when carried to the side lines, and when he collected his senses begged piteously to be allowed to resume play.
 Cohn at right half for Mississippi played a hard game and scored both touchdowns for the red and blue in the first half. Huggins kicked both goals. Nashville outplayed Mississippi in the second half, and by repeated line-smash- ing McCullom was forced down the field and over the line for a touchdown. Kelly failed to kick goal

 The old man was giving his son some fatherly advise as to how he should treat his young wife, to whom he was recent ly married.

ALABAMA EXPECTS ID DEFEAT TENN, interesting Game Expected on
 Thanksgiving Day TEAMS CLOSELY MATCHED Auburn Plays Georgia at Macon on the Same Day-Faculty VIII Not Al.
 low Game With Van
 derbilt.
 

TbA footballs teams from the University of Alabama and the University of Ten nessee will meet in Birmingham on Thanksgiving day for their annual grid- iron hattie and that will end the season for Alabama.
 Alabama and Tennessee have played two Thanksgiving day games in Birming- ham and Alabama has won them both. The crimson and white will come to Bir- mingham this time determined to keep up it's past reputation.
 Tennessee is also confident of winning this game. They were beaten by Glenn son 6 to 0, and Clemson defeated Alabama IS to 0. They therefore think that Ten nessee should be stronger than Alabama.
 Alabama Is Strong.
 On the other hand Alabama has been doing some figuring along this line, and 1t develops that the strength of the team has increased more than 100 per cent since they met Clemson on the West End grid iron.
 Since the game here with Auburn too weeks ago Alabama has learned many things, and among those who make bets the Tuscaloosa team seems to be the favorite So far as is known the betting is at even money with few Tennessee takers
 The West End grounds have been put In almost perfect condition and arrange ments have been completed for handling the largest crowd which has ever as- sembled in that park As ths will be the annual game and on a national holiday. 1t is expected that as many as three thousand people will witness the con- test.
 Auburn at Macon.
 On the same day Auburn plays the University of Georgia in Macon and the eyes of all football cranks is also turn ed that way. It IS practically conceded that Auburn will win over the Georgia team as the Orange and Blue is mani festly stronger in every particular of the game. That will be Aubrun's last game of the season and 1t now looks as il the Tigers will go through the season without defeat and with probably only one touchdown scored against them That was by Alabama.
 A letter from Manager Hall of the Au burn team to the sporting editor of tht Age Herald states that tie faculty hai forbidden any games after Thanksgiving This sets aside all possibility of a gam' between Auburn and Vanderbilt. The Au burn men say they are anxious to pla. Vanderbilt, but as they are anxious t' get out of training and resume thei studies they are willing to let the Thanks giving day game be the last.

An Important Deal.

Brief mention was made in the Tex
an last week Of a realty deal, whereby
Hon. George w. Burkitt of Houston
became the owner of the Gentry ranch
of 1892 acres Of rich black land lying
IL miles southwest of Taylor. This
sale, involving cash deposit of $780,
10000, is Of more than ordinary impor-
lance. The transfer means much for
the commercial interests of Taylor and
wealth of Williamson county, as the
pasture fences will be cut, the land
subdivided and cut up into small farms
and sold to actual settlers only. This
SUBJ division of the property will also
create additional and shorter roadways
to Taylor from points beyond and
prove an inviting field for the indus
trious renter who desires to own his
own farm. This important realty deal
was consummated through efforts of
G.. d Patterson, the hustling real es-
tate dealer, who will act as agent for
Mr.. Burkitt in the sale of these farms.
