money because the single individual
did not shoot more than he. The five
men insisted that the single shot
must beat all of them to win. while
on the other hand the lone shot in
sisted that they must beat him to win.
After weeks of arguing the bet was
declared draw. which decision was
proper.
There is the one who bets a horse
will not finish third, and If the horse
finishes in second or first, claim to
have won the bet. He is the limit.
There are a lot of complications, how
ever, that come up in betting in hand
books and the added starter PROPOSE
ton is the hard one to figure out.
There have been all sorts of decisions
on this point. For instance, man
bets on horse and he finishes Sec
ond to an added starter. Does he win
his bet? The answer Is yes or no.
Some hand books and authorities rule
that he wins his bet. with the odds
figured in proportion to what figure
the added starter cuts in the betting.
Unfortunately the average better can't
see the point and many who adhered
to this construction had to abandon
it and save arguments A man bets
on horse and the added starter wins
and is to 4 shot. The horse bet on
finishes second and is 10 to 1. Now
to would have probably have been
fair odds against the second horse if
the other horse had not been added,
but when this was offered to the bet
tiers they let out yell and the rule
generally adhered to now is that ad-
ded starters go for the book.
OF course, better can stipulate that
added starters go against him If the
bookie will accept it. and that seems
to be the only way out of it.
Then another Is the question of bet
ting on an entry in the handbooks.
A bet is placed on an entry in stake
and both are withdrawn and two other
horses from the same stables are run
instead. Does the bet go? 1t does as
the entry goes. If the better stip-
ulates the horses he wants to go, why
the bet would be OF.
Does better win if he bets on a
horse which is subsequently coupled
with another who wins the race? The
answer is in the affirmative, for it
would be impossible to bet on the one
horse and the entry runs as one. This
has also been decided the other way.
This complication came to the front
when the Futurity was ran a couple
of years ago, and lot of money was
bet on Tanya. She was coupled with
Artful, who won. The Enquirer de-
cided that all money bet on Tanya
won at the odds laid against the Whit
ney entry.
Nearly all the handbooks have their
own rules and 1t would be we'll for
the individual better to find out what
they are before wagering.

Basketball

The Bemidti fire department. will put
basketball team into the field this
winter, and from present indications
the material that is available for the
team insures very strong aggregation
and one that can cope with any SINH
lar organization in the state.
At recent meeting the following
officers were elected: Harry Cell,
manager; Arthur Gould, secretary;
Scott Stewart, treasurer.
There are several members of the
department who have had consider
able experience in playing basketball,
and there are, altogether, twelve can
didates from whom to select the team
that will represent the city.

WILL MAKE WORLDS RECORD.

WILL MAKE WORLDS RECORD.
Has Ridden s9e Winning Mounts This
Year.
Jockey Miller is sure to create q
new worlds record this year which
will stand for long time.
On Monday he rode his 296th win
ming mount.
In 1904 Eugene Hildebrand made
record of 296 winning mounts for
the year. Miller has two months to
ride yet and is sure to put the mark
much higher.
Up to the time of Hildebrand's rec
ord, Reif held the honor with 292
made in 1896, and when Hildebrand
bettered this it was believed that his
record would stand for many years.
The riding Of Miller this year has
been the sensation on the metropol-
itan tracks. Some of the "hunch"
players have become rich simply by
playing Miller's mounts day in and
day out. Frequently his mounts have
been at extravagant odds, as he has
been pitted against the best riders in
the country.

New York, Oct. 26.-The promised
match race between Davy Johnson's
champion sprinter Roseben and E. r.
Thomas Lady Amelia, will not take
place. An effort was made by Walter
E. Edwards, racing secretary of the
Jamaica track, to bring these two
sprinters together during the present
meeting at that track, but as Jack
Joiner, trainer of Lady Amelia, de-
manded that the distance for the race
be five furlongs instead of six fur
longs, which was wanted by johnson,
the arrangements fell through.

JOCKEY TO RECEIVE PENSION.
viii Draw From the Fund for Disabled
Riders.

new York, Oct. 26.-Gr0Ver CleVe-
land Fuller, until year or two ago
one of the prominent jockeys of the
country, has been granted 500 a
month for year by the stewards of
the Jockey club. The money will be
drawn fr0ni the jockey fund for DIG
abled riders.
Fuller Is now a cripple, the result
OF injuries received In race in the
spring of 1905. For three years pre-
vtous to that time Fuller's work in
the saddle earned him $4,000 year.
Fuller, it is understood, spent this
money as fast as he earned 1t.
FIVE PLUNKS TO SEE RACES.
New York, Oct. 26.-The first hint
Of coming departure in turf affairs
which is of vital concern to all fol-
lowers of the horses, was heard at
Belmont, when 1t was intimated that
the stewards had practically decided
in favor of q IS admission fee next
year.
1t appears that receipts from atten-
dance have not been so satisfactory
the past summer with at least three
of the courses as they were in 1905.
These interests are naturally not
averse to an increased admission,
while one of August Belmont's net
ideas is to keep away from the race
courses under the supervision of the
Jockey club such persons as are I'M
able to patronize so costly a sport.
1t was thought that the So rate
would accomplish this end, but 80
far 1t has failed to do so. Last sum-
mer, when the jump from 81 to IS
was made, the public set up howl,
and 1t was thought the undesirable
element would be kept from the cour-
ses. However the complexion of the
crowds is just the same as ever.
In support Of the advocacy Of a IS
rate Is the statement from 8. 8. How
land, lately returned from Europe
In effect that Of all the first-class
racing countries abroad and in Amer
lea, the United States enjoys the
pleasure Of thoroughbred racing at
the cheapest individual outlay. In
England 1t is matter of SO to see
an afternoon OF racing from first
class enclosure, while the same tar

Mr.. Keene heads the list of winning
American owners, with $4,000, but
in France Mr.. Vanderbilt. another
American owner, has already won
$225, 900, and the season not yet ended.
All of which goes to show that the
earning capacity Of the thoroughbred
is greater in France than in the United
States.
One of Dan Patch's legs is in sus-
picious way this fall, and 1t Is more
than likely that this will be his last
season on the turf. The famous PAGER
is now in Texas, where he has engage
ments for the next two or three weeks,
after which he goes to Atlanta, Geor-
gia, and one or two other southern
cities, winding up his exhibitions at
New Orleans late in December. The
pacing world has never seen the equal
of the son of Joe Patchen, and while
it is dangerous to make predictions
regarding pacing speed, none is now In
sight that looks to have a chance to
dethrone him.

on the western tracks and looked to-
be candidate for record below 2:05.
Not less than 100000 has been d.
vided among harness horse drivers by
the various associations in the Grand
circuit this season. Ed. Geers, the no.

trotters to victory, heads the list Of
winners. He has captured purses
which amount to $27,7S5.
