PRETTY Fl, ,ORENCE CEBOYERETEI HOW
SHE FREED YOUNG WHITFIELD.

One thousand dollars and a
promise he now repudiates to
pay $500 more is all 1t cost
George Whitteu Sr. to secure
a release for his SON from
Miss Florence Nj. Boyere OF
all claims for breach Of
promise and seduction. Here
tofore it has been supposed
that Whittell Sr. paid the
pretty woman S25,000 to sur
render her claims, that his
son might take as his wife q
pretty society bud to whom
he was betrotfed. These facts
came out in court yesterday
when Miss Boyere's suit to re-
cover the $500 from Charles
f. Hanlon, Whittell Sr.'s at
torney, on account of the
settlement went TO trial. The
most interesting fact deyel-
oped. however, was that
Whittell Sr. and his attorney
made desperate efforts to
keep the romance from be-
coming public, and it was
the publication that caused
them TO repudiate the con-
tract with the young woman
to pay her $500 when six
months had passed and
time had placed the seal of
silence ON what they termed
scandal. In the defeat of
their object they found chag-
rim. Now Miss Boyere must
fight for what she claims is
hers.

WILL FOSTER
HARNESS RACING
ASSOCIATION ORGANIZED FOR
DEVELOPMENT OF SPORT
November and July Dates for Agri-
cultural Park-Grand Circuit
Performers Expected
to Enter

Organized harness racing will be no
longer neglected i'm Southern California.
Local enthusiasts have recognized the
advantages of the southern portion Of
the state for the fostering Of the sport,
and an association composed of several
of the prominent business men and
capitalists of Los Angeles has been
organized for the purpose Of helping
and encouraging the development of
the harness horse and harness horse in
terests.
The association will offer purses of
attractive value to be competed for at
their July and November meetings of
each year that will certainly draw
horsemen from the northern sections of
the state, oregon and Washington and
also grand circuit performers, and
which will naturally assure contests of
the highest order. Besides the liberal
purses the association will hang up
trotting and pacing events, and for their
July and November meetings it is the
intention of the horsemen who have
taken up the matter to offer valuable
cups to compete for by gentlemen own
ers with their matinee trotters and
PAGERS hitchers to wagon.
What could be more pleasing or cre-
ate more interest in the way of light
harness racing than race of this
kind, with Sweet Marie, Lou Dillon and
Major Delmar as contestants, the own
ers handling the reins?
1t is the Intention of the association
to open the California circuit with a
meeting at Agricultural park, COM
mencing July to 8. Liberal purses
will be offered for 2-yearo trotteIs
and 3-year old PAGERS. All class races
will be for $1,000 purses The races will
be planned so as to include three daily
and so arranged that a horse can take
part in two events during the week.
The increasing popularity of harness
racing in Southern California assures
the success of the undertaking, the men
who are back of the project being of
recognized standing in the financial
world and much experience in this form
of sport. c. A Garfield is president of
the new association, William Garland
vice president, A. w. Bruner secretary
and manager and L. l. Christopher
treasurer. With Mr.. Bruner at the
helm the organization will have the
benefit of man of many years ex-
perience in light harness racing.
Horses now in California being pre-
pared for the grand circuit will be aba
to remain and take part in the July
meeting and then ship direct to De-
troit, having a ten days rest before
the opening of the Detroit meeting the
last week in July.

a kind word for all.
There was heavy play on Borghesi

team of the Sherman Indians by the
score OF &c to 16, OH the high school

The largest crowd of the season went
up to the school to see the game, and
although the local girls ran up big
score on the dusky maidens the game
was snappy and full of interest.
High schools victory was practically
won by the clever work of one of their
speedy forwards, Mary Plummer, who
threw all but one of the baskets made.

returned the winner the popular book
maker had almost a clean sheet.
Mcdaniel gave Pasadena a perfect
ride and demonstrated that the colt is
not front runner by coming from be-

without an effort.
Pasadena was much the best in the
handicap. He was cut off badly right
after the start and mad to take the
overland route all the way, then won
handily.
A ton of wise money was burnt up
on Buchanan. Those who saw his fast
