Richard d. Walsh is to be the asso-

ing to press dispatches from New Or

with the Dispatch of st. Louis
for several seasons as a tipster, and
his paper was very proud Of the sue
cess of its turf expert" until the re-
formation came. Until few weeks
ago prominent place was given each
day to a column from Mr.. Walsh pre-
dieting the results of the races that
were to come, and explaining what
happened to the horses that should
have won the day before. Under ex-
listing circumstances, while it is calling
on the authorities to suppress the
wicked race tracks, the Post-Dispatch
has no more need of a turf editor than
has the War Cry. Mr.. Walsh was con-
nected with the Union track last sum-
mer as associate judge, and for this
he was denied the privilege
of the track at New Orleans at the
opening of the present meeting. This
move was purely to place the track on
record and not directed against Mr.. |
Walsh personally. This, however, did |
not make Mr.. Walsh feel any more |
and no doubt he will ac-
cept position with the rival track
with considerable satisfaction.

TRACK NOTES

At last the mare Freesias has won. A
we'll known citizen of Chicago not long
ago committed suicide on account of
this mare on her failing to win. He
backed her heavily, each time out
doubling up and had lost $25O,OOO on her
when he killed himself.
Freesias was run up $500 over her en-
tered price and was led away.
1t has been enormously stated that
the entry of Heather Honey had been
refused for her bad behavior in refus-
ing to run. Her entry will be accepted
in any race to which she is eligible.
Jake Webber made a good trade
when he exchanged Position for Golden
Light and received $500 besides from
McCafferty. Golden Light won his
first start in his new owners colors.
This is the third one that McCafferty
let go that won the first time in the
new owners colors. The other two
were Emperor of India and Dutiful.
Merces was backed from 10 to to l
at post time and Frank Regan won
$4,000 on her victory. In hard drive
Dugan just managed to keep her nose
In front.
Crown Princess was much the best
as the race was run as McDaniels al
lowed her to swing wide into the
stretch, which cost her the money.
Kenilworth did the same old trick,
swing wide into the stretch and lost at
least five lengths. He should have
been second with a good ride.
Helgerson came to life suddenly yes
terday and was a wild horse. as he led
all the way and just failed to last long
enough. He swerved across Ray at
the fifty-yard pole, which cost her the
show money, but was not disqualified.
In this race the judges put up Akela's
number for second and did not know
their mistake until they were told
about IT.

stay its course, and then made
straight for the outlying masses of

When the flying mule had reached
point about hundred yards dis

the reds were showing. it stopped
short and forgetting its pain began
to Craze on the bunch grass.
On the back of that mule was the
ammunition upon which depended the
troopers salvation. In order to
reach the animal, any man brave
enough to make the attempt must
needs cross an open plain swept by
a thousand rifles.

The officers consulted and des-
perate plan for the recapture of the
mule was under discussion. Sudden
ly one of the enlisted men called at
tention to movement in the grass
far over to the right. In moment
the head of white man was seen.
1t was a trooper who was crawling
slowly toward the stampeded aniLaal.
Word was passed swiftly down the
line and volley after volley was di-
rected at the Sioux to keep their at
tention away from the mule and fl ON
the soldier who was making his way
toward it. The trooper crawled ON
and on. He was close to the saw
age line and discovery meant death.
He reached point within twenty-five
yards of the grazing animal. then
suddenly he stood up; bolted forward
and vaulted on to the mules back.

was the trooper who dared the death
to save the ammunition, started the

bed has been mattress laid upon
