JUDGES I HAVE KNOWN.
By HUGH E. KEOUGH.

Il has been my lot 20 serve under or
over all tie presiding judges who have
been prominent on the turf in the last
ten years. When I say over 1 mean that
occupied q seat in the lofty pagoda 'deSig-
mated as the press stand, and when ! say
under ! mean TO insinuate that it was my
privilege TO occupy subordinate official
position From the two points of view
received a lasting impression Of many per
sons who have made and are stiil max
ing the history OF the sport Of kings.
From various angles have studied the
judicial methods OF Col. If. Lewis Clark.
Col. r. " Simmons. Capt. James II.
Rees, Charles II. Pettingill. Clarence NJ.
Mcdowell Col. 4. W. Hamilton. Frank J.
Bryan, John J. Carter. Francis Trevelyan.
Joseph Murphy. Z. c. Hopper. and John

OF these Col Clark has tie distinction
Of having gone out OF this life by his own
act, Col Carter was victim OF the Bald

be in demand should he consent 10 return

OF those have named only Mr. Pettin-
gill ard Col. Carter owed their positions 10
their horsenauship. Col. Clark was
sportsman essentially. but was strictly
professional. lie founded Churchill

English idea OF racing IN this country.
He built the Kentucky Derby on the lines
Of the Derby At EPSON. He was the first
president OF the Louisville Jockey club and
serted IS president and presiding judge
for twenty years or more. For part OF
that time he was recognized as the lead

After every good baseball game, as one
leaves the stand, one hears some enthu-
siast say: " That was the greatest catch
ever made"
But there can be but one greatest catch
and that was made by Bill LANCE, the

rushed to the grounds. The teams were
just starting. and Bill ran out TO his posi-
ton, but il didn't save him. for. when he
came in. Arson plastered another S1UJ fine

In speaking of the The Freedom
of tile Press, at banquet at Chicago
last week, Col. Harvey. comparing
the newspapers of this country with
those Of Europe said
'There is no press in the world
comparable TO thatof America in free
dom and influence. political or soil,
from venlity. from contamination OF
any kind whatsoever. In France news
papers opinions are a matter of francs !;
in England, too often of titles; in
Germany, Austria and Spain. Of inn
perial favor; in Russia. of absolute
censorship In America. the funda-
mental integrity of the press cannot
be impugned.
= The press of Amreica is passing
through critical period. The infiu.
ence whi3h is being brought to bear
upon every newspaper that is worth
while, is enormous in proportion TO
the ability of each paper to Withstand
it, II the press of America passes safe
beyond the distractions being plac-
ed IN the way of its progress nova

of Captain Sartoris' epithet. Evil
