Burden of Proof Upon State.

Though this act IS generally considered
as effective It Is contended that In all pro-
ceedings under 1t an unusual burden Is laid
upon the state to prove In each case that
the accused persons are not conducting a
legal business under the section, excepting
driving club association
The history OF the litigation under this
law, well as under the other kindred
statutes, shows that 1t Is exceedingly diff
cult for the state to establish its cases. 1t
Is necessary, for instance, to employ detec-
tives and to get the most exact informa-
ton concerning the business carried on In
suspected places. Thus the present situation
seems to be that while the law on the stat
ute books is sufficient TO reach the great
majority of cases the difficulties surround
Ing its enforcement are such as to discour-
age attempts at prosecutions. and conse-
quently to encourage and embolden the
gambling element in the promotion of the
race track and pool room business.
The principal difficulty for the state. 1t Is
held. will be removed. and the matter
greatly simplified by the enactment of the
measure proposed

AMERICAN LEAGUES
PRESIDENT IN TOWN

President Ban Johnson of the American
League arrived in Washington last night
and stopped with Secretary Benjamin Minor
of the local club Mr.. Johnson is returning
home from the recent meeting In New York.
and will go to Cincinnati from here to In
spect the new quarters selected for the ma
tional commission in that city. He Is In
perfect health and enthusiastic over the
coming base ball season. He has a warm
spot IN his heart for the Washington club.
as IL has been a sort of league baby i'll
seasons past. and said that he believed the
Nationals would be considerably stronger
this year than last.
Without doubt" continued he. the 1906
race in the American League will be a
warm one. Without exception the clubs
have strengthened materially, and the re-
suit will be a hotter race, and closer and
more exciting games. The patrons. there
fore, can look for rare sport. Last season
was q remarkably successful one in our or
ganization. and l am justified in predicting
that the to come will be more so.
Recognizing the demand of the public
for more batting, l am disappointed that
nothing was done by the rules committee to
satisfy this feeling among the patrons OF
the game but the National League rules
committee was pledged strictly to the foul
rule, and, therefore, our representatives
could do nothing but abide by the condi-
tons which prevailed last season. With the
clubs adding to their strength in the pitch
ing department, | cannot say that l look
for any improvement over last season in a
batting way.
Mr.. Johnson was particularly indignant over
the way the Tristate League has been act
ing toward the American League players.
but has little chance of accomplishing any
thing as long as the National League is
lukewarm in it's efforts toward suppressing
the outlaws" Mr. Johnson will probably
continue his trip toward the Windy city by
tonight's train.

courts of the It'll Regiment Armory. 6sth
street and Park avenue. He defeated Will
lam B. Cragin, jr., rated as one OF the most
skillful players in the It'll Reg ment and the
West Side Lawn Tennis Club. The Har-

Both of these competitions were in the
second round of the seventh annual national

year in the singles. which in the past mas
been held by such distinguished players as
Holcombe Ward. John Appleton Allen.
Wylie c. Grant ard Edwin b. Dewhurst OF
the University of Pennsylvania. who Won
the title last season.
From the opening service of his match
'rallant played close up to the net. He shot
the ball through Cragin's court on the drive
for deep placement, using plenty OF stroke,
and bringing 1t down at the corners of the
court. Cragin was compelled to play Tar
ball properly. He also endeavored to re-
turn it for place, but the Harvard man held
to the net. and ii was rarely that Cragin
was successful in getting the bali past him.
In the last set Cragin iobbed. but 1t was
too late, and Tallant won without dIfficuity

REVIVAL OF THE
AIREDAlE TERRIER

Some years ago the Airedale terrier was
scarce article at dog shows, very few or
the prominent dog fanciers taking kindly to
this very useful and now prominent breed.
Not many Airedales are owned In and about
Washington. so no wonder that many are
asking where the thirty-five entries made
for the forthcoming show are coming from
and what an Airedale Is like. The AiredaIe
is chiefly a water dog. going after his game
In waters which would prove a hindrance
to other breeds With smoother coat. He
has very rough (wiry) coat. which affords
a proof to water soak and permits him to
keep up the work for hours where any other
breed would succumb to the continued ef
forts. 1t is much like the Welsh terrier in
many respects. but kind in disposition, and
especially faithful to master and children;
never picks a row with another dog, but
amply able to care for himself when at
tackled. Probably the most prominent breed
err OF the Airedale in this country is Mr..
Theodore Offerman of New York, the we'll
known society man. Mr.. Offerman also has
Il kennel of French bulldogs, and is to Of
ficiate as Judge of this last-named breed a I
the coming show. Mr. Offerman will have
an exhibit Of fourteen Airedales, bringing
the pick of his kennels, and the world beat
ers in point of prizes won. York judy"
York Victoria and York sceptre" are
three of the best. and when one has seen
these dogs he can truly say he has seen the
best Airedales that money can buy.
Mr. Ofrerman will not be able to show any
Of his French bulldogs owing to the fact
that he himself Is to judge this breed The
Judge for Airedaes is Mr. I. H. Garlick
who ha sonly recently taken his residence
In America, now residing at Ridley
Park. Pa.
The Rowsley Kennels are also large exhtb-
itors OF Airedales at the coming show, and
there will be keen rivalry between them
and the York Kennels CMr. Offermans ken
nelsl as to the highest honors.

ferty, IN which he claims that The HUI

DIT Young. the track veterinarian. is in
the hands OF the officials. He makes a
positive statement that The Huguenot
was stimulated. and that the indications
were that a drug known as heroine was
used. The other two veterinary surgeons
DR. Morrison, the state veterinarian, and
DR. Connolly. are said 10 have located In
dications of drugs while examining The

McCanerty denies the use Of drugs abso-
lutely. and he has had all his stable en-
ployes make affidavits of denial When
all the evidence is IN hand the matter Will
be taken up by the judges, probably to-
day or Thursday.
There has been some talk OF Durnell
pressing the case of doping" against Nc

fornia with Jail punishment but II is
hardly likely that such a course will be
taken. though anything might be expected
from either Durner or McCanerty their
