THE DONKEY RACE.

]. New Workers spending the cold months at Hot Springs, Ark, do not spend all their time in betting on the horses, pitching silver dollars into baskets, calling the turn at faro. or boiling out in the springs. They have other ways of keeping themselves amused. One way is to take short dashes on the "nickel-a-ride" steeds that flourish at all watering places.
 Starter Mars Cassidy recently faced the most remarkable field of his va ried career, which stretches from St. Asaph, Singerly and Iron Hill, through the Canadian circuits to Aqueduct, Morris Park and Sheepsbead Bay.
 Lined up in front of him waiting for the flag were weird lot of horses and dOnkeys mounted by number of well-known New Workers. Among them were Whitey Langdon. Jack Bennett, Charley Fox. Mark Elias and Judge Murphy. No information has been received stating who won the race, but it said at the springs that Whitey LangdOn was fined for trying to beat the barrier. and Book maker Mark Elias is now under in GestigatiOn, accused of having laid against his mount.

GOTCH WINS ANOTHER.

Frank Gotch. the American catch as-csitch-can champion, showed his skill by beating Alexander SamuelsOn. known as the Terrible Swede.'' in two straight .falls at Buffalo last Thursday night. Gotcb's victory was q decisive one and added to his repu- tatiOn. as Samuelson is a good man. Samuelsoa started of like winner. hut when Gotch got on top there was nothing to it. The champion secured an arm lock and by easy stages forced the Swcde to the mat. The time of the fall was 2i minute: 4O seconds. Gotch placed Samuclson's shoulders to the mat with such force that the Swetle was stunned for Il few seconds. .f- ter q short rest the contest was re- sumed and Gotch pinned his man in I:: minutes 4O seconds. Samuelson had an advantage of thirty pounds in weight. hut he was like child in Gotcli-s hands.
 Carl Pons of Montreal made his re- aDDearance on the mat at rtica last Thursday night. The Canuck met II. T.. Hansen of Denmark. The style was Graeco-R"man. and Pons was re- turned the winner. gaining the first fall in IS minutes and the third in 2 minutes. Hansen took the second fall in : minutes.

RACING.
CORRICAN'S NEW TRACK
 WILL OPEN GATES TO-DAY

The first gun in the western turf war will be fired to-day at New Or leans. The Panama track, the bone of contention between Edward Corri- gan and the Western Jockey Club, will open its gates for it's first meet ing, and will hold a meeting in oppo- sition to the Crescent City track, the course that has been in operation in that city for many years. r.
 That the Panama meeting will be a success is practically assured by the large entry list. There are more horses entered for the six races at that track that at the old course.
 With its liberal purses, new grand stand and modern appointments, the new track starts out with everything in it's favor, while old, worn.out build lnss adorn the old place.
 Horsemen, now that they are assur- ed of circuit of at least eleven race courses to operate on this summer un- der the patronage of tue American Turf Association, are flocking to the grounds in large numbers. The fear that there would be dearth Of horses and jockeys, the dominant factors in the sport of racing. is no longer emin- ent as there are plenty of horses and riders quartered there ready for the fray.

FOOTBALL IN ARIZONA.
Great Game as Described in . West. ern Paper.

Here is q story of a football game as told in an Arizona paper: At o'clock, dull the clans had gathered at the old ball grounds. All the boys | were encased in feather beds and other defenses. There were two doe ! tors, an ambuance, q stretcher. q ga, lon of arnica, and all kinds of band ages and Red Cross wagon, and they needed them all.
 Summed up in a nutshell, football is about like this: The first thing is q kickout which doesn't amount to much. Then after that Il fellow holds the ball between his legs. with a TOW of shaggy old boys behind him, who stand with glittering eyes and fangs prOtuding, while somebody blows a whistle and somebody else counts, any old way. till he comes to a certain number. when the ball is fired back ward. some one catches it. runs about six feet. when just twenty-one men pile on him, jam in his slats, twist him like Il pretzel and flatten him out un- til he isn't thicker than tortilla: then they all fall off and hOller: Water. water. water Bring the doctor ' And they rub his legs and chunk him in the neck. and bring him to. and lift him tenderly on stretcher. and as they bear him away he lifts his only whole hand and yells for the Tombstone or the varsity as the case may be.
 And now we are all on the ground and the boys are jockeying and the automobilers are resting. and old No T is panting as she pumps air. On one side of me is one of Tombstone's incomparable specimens of angelic pleasantness in the guise of n school 'narm' and on the other an old dame who looks as if she had been carved out of jerkey. and the small boy with tin horn and rubber spout at the end of it was there, making the am bicnt air hideous with incessant dis cord. and woolly rider. who magines he is Count Cassini riding down the enemies of the fatherland. is plunging about on horseback among the women and children. till the officers yank him earthward and the big signal goes UT and the battle begins.
 They start at the middle of the bull-ring. and the Tuscans have evi- dently entered into contract to drive the Tombstones west, and right royal ly they followed out tho terms of that contract. An old Kansas snow blow would not bc a suggestion to ihc boofs and elbows that plowed up that innocent mesa for two long hours

.AFTER-POP ANSON.

Manager Clark Griffith yesterday re, ceived the signed contract of Joe Yea ger, who will be used as substitute by the Highlanders. Yeagers release was purchased from the Buffalo East. crn league club last fall, just before Ned Hanlon began the work of 'cov~r- ing up' Eastern league players. 1Slis will be Yeager's third appearance in fast company. He was drafted by the Brooklyn club in 1897, after pitching the Lancaster club of the Atlantic league into the championship. His work as q pitcher was not good enough for the National league and he became q substitute infelder for Brooklyn His next appearance was with the De. troit club of the American league. He played third base for the Tigers. and was traded to Buffalo in the fall of 1903. He has steadily improved as an niielder, and last season si1s setNsdh work for the Eastern league pennant winners.
 Griffith also received communica. tion from Happy Jack Chesbro, from the great spit ball'' exponent notified Grif that he is ready to accept Pop An sons offer to wager that he can bat six spit balls" out of the lot. Ches- bro writes: .I will stick to my crig. inal proposition and bet dear old Pop that will pitch him six balls and that |. he can't, catch any of them, let alone hit them.'' To this Griffith added: '.I will back Chesbro, and will let my old manager wear an apron. and then bet he cant even stop the balls that Ches will pitch him.

SLOAN TO RIDE.

Tod Sloan will have his first mount to-day since he was forced from the English turf, four years ago. He will ride at the Panama track. Tired of waiting for the tardy recog- milton of his rights by the English stewards and weary for what he calls justice he will accept mounts at the new course. He is under cou- tract to ride for Edward Corrigan. the principal stockbolder of the Pana- ma track. COrrigan has large string of horses ready to race and Sloan will not lack for mounts. He believes that he has not lost any of his skill and cunning in the saddle since the Englishmen forced him to stand cn the ground. He is in fairly good physical condition.
 For q month he has practised daily in gymnasiums in this and other cities in order to harden his muscles. He tips the scales at 1O6 pounds and ex- poets to ride at 100 pounds in few days.

VLADIVOSTOK NEXT
Japanese Preparing to Cap- ture Siberian Stronghold.
BOTH ARMIES FORIIFYINC LINES.
Opposing Forces Closely In Touch on Sandepas Sbakhe Position. Fighting Zone Has Been
 Made DesOlate.

LONDON, Feb. 11.--Dispatches from the headquarters of the Russian army at Huanshan say that at present the attention of the Japanese is mainly concentrated on the narrow line east
 and west of the railway, where also pass the two main roads to Mukden.
 The armies are closely in touch all along the line of Sandepas, Paohsins-
 tun, Chenlianpu. Liuchanstun and
 Shakhe. The region is entirely desert ed by natives, but their stone houses [ and stout walls have been turned into veritable fortresses. The declivities have been iced and are almost un-
 climbable even without Instructions and abatis.
 The approaches to the streets of the villages can be swept by machine guns hidden behind thick walls. Notwith- standing the number of these quasi fortresses the Japanese are not slack ening their energy in intrenching, but persist in the work in the daytime in the face of Russian batteries, and at
 night the loud noise of the rumbling of carts gives evidence of their untiring labors. The Russians are equally per- sistent, and besides harassins the Jap anese working parties with rife and
 cannon fire they themselves are fortify- ing and refortifying.
 The Japanese continue to scatter proclamations in the Russian lines,
 and these papers are also openly dis tributed by Chinese in the streets of Mukden s .t The Japanese measures for the block
 ade of Vladivostok. such as darkening the lighthouses and guarding the straits, excite no alarm. as number of
 vessels which have succeeded in evad.
 ing blockadcrs have filled the fortress
 with ample stores for the possible con-
 tingency of siege. The elevation of
 tho Vladivostok fortress to the first
 rank shows that Russians expect it
 will play an important role the coming
 summer, but no one predicts when the
 siege will begin.
 Admiral Rojestvensky's fleet is re-
 ported oh Madagascar. with Japanese warships watching in the vicinity.
 A dispatch from Wonson says that
 the Russians in Korea have retired
 from Songchin, burning their fodder and removing all supplies.

THE DIAMOND.
BOB DREW
 GETS PRAISE 
4 Providence Paper Lauds Him to the Skies-New Yorks May be in the In. aueural Parade.

Talk about throwing bouquets, just listen to the following from the Provi- denc Telegram about a former Water. bury ball player: Bill Drew, the star first baseman of the Norwich team of the Connecticut league, may be the successor of Tom Daily on the Provi- dence base ball team this season. It was rumored last night that Colonel Felix WendelSchaefer is negotiating with the Norwich club for this husky player. but owing to the fact that he is in New York at the present nothing definite could be learned on the mat ter. Drew started his professional ca reer in the Pennsylvania league, where he played three years. He then en- tered the Connecticut, league, where he has been the past three years. He is q giant, standing six feet two inches and weighing about 195 pounds. In eighty. five games last season his fielding av- craze was .977. The Norwich club has been paying him the highest salary on the team and finds the pressure too great for another season.
