HAMBURG BELLE
is TURF QUEEN

Hamburg Belle, a grand mare that has
been race track idol for three years,
made her first appearance OF the season
In the fourth race az the Sheepshead Bay
track yesterday. She was hailed vocif-
erously by 1900 racegoers and then, as
II she appreciated the greeting paid her
respects to her many admirers by beating
the new champion sprinter. Halifax, in a
gallop.
1t was a treat 10 see this great race
mare just romp a mile in 1899 1-5. The
easy manner in which she disposed of her
principal opponent proved that the name
of the stakes, the Equality. was mis-
nomer so far as II referred to her and
the other contestants. She had all the
best Of the weights. as she carried only
100 pounds, while Halifax was weighted
with lis and Fancy Bird III pounds But
she won with such great ease that train
ers said that she could have carried 100
pounds and won.

horses entered for this stake except Hail.

The men who back Jockey Miller re-
gardless of the quality OF the horse he
rides cashed bets five times out OF the
six during the afternoon. He rode three
winners-Hamburg Belle. Jaunty and
Lancastrian-and two horses that finished
second-Rye and Misgvings. AS there
were good odds against all FIVE horses
the Millerites won much money.

PITCHER HUGHES
CASE DECIDED

The National Baseball commission yes
terday at Cincinnati decided that the title
to Pitcher T. Hughes is in the American

to. which the Topeka club will be re-

The story had it's origin in the fancy of Washington correspondent and is told with an inn itation of Alfred Henry Lewis in the Wolfville stories:
 There is a bad man with a gun on his way here from Arizona and 1he money-order clerks in the local post office would like to borrow President Roosevelts secret service guard The bad man is coming to collect money order. With the letter of advice the postmaster at Phoenix wrote this let ter to the postmaster here:
 "'The payee of this order presented the original for payment and demand ed enough more to make up the price of beer threatening to back his mild request up with a Gatling gun. Nat urally We felt somewhat aggrieved as we had to descend from our natural dignity and duck under the counter. as OUT own little rain-makers were in a drawer and we were somewhat press ed for time.
