AUG UST A POOR TIME
Many Holiday Enthusiasts to Compete
in This Tournament-Next Years
Meeting at Portrush.

DUBLIN, Jan 2o-As expected. the
Irish GOlfng Union has resolved TO re-
vert 10 September for its annual omen
amateur championship meeting.
For some reason OF other. the cbanUa
which was made this year to August
met with little favor among the old band
OF English and Scottish competitors.
and, as result. the entry was less
representative than usual. IN the past.
many players have made a point of
spending part OF their holiday at the
Irish meeting, and 1t Is possible that they
could not change the date of their vaca-
ton so easily as the Irish Union could
alter the date OF its championship.
Social attractions Are Many.
Certainly no golfer could spend a week
Of his holiday more pleasantly than by
participating in the Irish open tourna-
ment. Particularly is this the case at
Newcastle County Down and Portrush.

MINOR CIRCUIT

of Its Tracks.
SALEM HACKERS CONFIDENT

SALEM HACKERS CONFIDENT

NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-Probably the
schedule for the minor racing circuit
that is. the circuit which is to be made
up of the tracks at Pimlico. Narragan-
sett Park. Salem. Albany. Buffalo. and
Montreal-may not be made up until
some time after dates for big meetings
are announced.
Some Of these minor tracks are fin
ished. Others are building. The Jockey
Club will probably be governed. when
the time comes II arrange the minor
schedule, by the readiness of the diff
ferent plants of business.
The work at Salem is said to be back
ward by persons who have recently Wis
tied the place where the New England
Jockey Club proposes TO establish major
racing in the country Of the Puritan for
the first time in history. But Andrews.
Miller and his associates say they will
be prepared TO open their gates on the
anniversary of the battle of Bunker
Hill. Maybe they Will. If they have
luck They are men of enterprise and
energy. But they may Nave labor
troubles. Labor troubles repeatedly re-
tarded the building of Belmont Park.
Albany and Montreal
Little has been heard recently of Cul
Hollands venture at Albany, but il
must be borne in mind that Mr. Holland
and his friends do not have 10 build a

NEW YORK, Jan. 2O-Master Merlin.

An effort is being made in England
just now to get outside the American
law that requires the payment of an
ad valOrem duty of 20 per cent on dogs
whose pedigrees are unknown, and per-
ulits tha free entry OF dogs when the
pedigree for thre generations is regis

An Idiotic Law.
A more idiotic law never was enacted
A dog isn't necessarily n good dog be-
cause he is pedigreed and conversely
many of the great dogs of the world
have been practically of unknown
origin.
The present law has frequently pre-
vented IN the past American experts
who have been sent abroad for the pur-
pose of purchasing stock from bringing
home dogs whose points were also per-
feet. simply because of the exOrbitant
duty. it being impossible to authenti-
cate their pedigree.
On the other hand, there are now in

against any track aggregation in the
city. One thing that has encouraged
the boys on the hill TO nut out bet

years is the increased interest which
has been shown at the school by the
building of marble shower baths there.
While Central has the brightest of
prospects for producing a winning team
and keeping up the record of never
having been defeated in an inter-high
meet, the lack of material for field
events is causing worry. A number of
good men are out for these events. but
il is also true that new men are not
always to be relied upon when il comes

That none of it exploded is considered a miracle by those who claim this is the manner in which the dynamite came to be along the track. Some of it is said to have been found near Osborne.
