FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
Strange Method by Which the Japanese
Divide Time.

Strange Method by Which the japanese
Divide Time.
You know, BOYS and girls, We
have our day divided up into twen-
ty-four hours, beginning at II and
ending at II.
But the japanese divide their
time into twelve parts. There are
always six parts belonging to the
night and six to the day. The day
begins at sunrise and ends at sunset.
And, no matter whether the day be
long and the night short or the day
short and the night long. each one
always consists of six parts.
You know there are two hands
to our clock. There are two hands
also to the Tokyo clock, but the
difference between their clock and
ours is in the numbers on the face
of the clock.
Our numbers stay exactly where
the clockmaker ,put them IN the
first place, but in the Tokyo clock
the numbers can be showed from one
position to another by the man who
owns the clock.
The sunrise number is always
moved to keep pace with the time
of the sunrise, and the same thing
is done with the sunset number, ana
then the five numbers between them
are moved until they divide the day
into six exactly equal parts.
So YOU see it makes no difference
to the japanese people whether the
days are long or short. They can al
ways make their clocks suit the
length of the days.
They do not count l, 2, 5, 4, ), E,
ETC., as We do; but, beginning with
9, they count 9, s, :, 6, 5, 4, 3.

Considerable speculation has been rife
as to why E. f. Smathers has so sud-
denly determined to leave the turf,
While it Is true Mr. Smathers has not
been particularly successful either as
an owner or a plunger, and has probably
lost much money, still he is not A quit
ter as rule. and the recent reinstate
ment Of Sam Hildreth as a trainer, it
was thought, had marked q turn in his
luck
The Smathers stable Is one OF the
largest in training. and until the de-
cision Of its owner to retire came an
elaborate campaign had been mapped
our for Saratoga, where stalls had been
engaged for thirty-five head of horses.
Among the older horses in the Smathers
string are Burleigh. Rapid Water. Ac-
tion. Irene Lindsey. McChesney. Witful,
ana Aonastic. Among the two-year-olds
are Security Panic, Sir Brinkley,
Transmute, Abiure. Sly Ben. and others.
The retirement of MIR. Sma theirs leaves
Sam EIildreth without an engagement
No doubt iildreth could make desirable
connections with another stable, for his
abilities are recognized, but the trainer
saws he will train for no other man but

toga, who want to see them race to
make IL a paying proposition, it seems
strange that something is not done.
Much as the racing public is interested
in the question of reducing the rate of
admission to tracks IN New York. moth
ing was announced at the meeting of
the magnates this week to raise hope in
their hearts that the two-dolIar tax
would be restored in the fall 1t Is
probable that there will be a policy of
retrenehment- The overnight purses are
likely to suffer a cut and the expense
of running the tracks will be reduced
Horsenan may object to reducing the
added money, but 1t will not carry any
weight with the track proprietors, who
increased their purses from time to time
as their receipts waxed fatter Now that
the box office shows a falling off. and
no revenue is derived from the betting
ring. the associations can exercise their
pTerogatiVe OF slicing the purses and
doubtless both the stakes and overnight
purses will be smaller next year than
they are this.
