MAXWELLS SELL IN SOUTH

1t is not generally known that many
automobiles sold throughout the south
are fitted with a special wide tread on
account of the character of the south
ern roads. 1t is customary for many
manufacturers to make cars with a
siXty-one inch tread to be used on
southern highways
In view of this fact the Maxwell
Briscoe Motor company of Tarrytown
N. Y, feel that the recent success of
Maxwell cars in the south is the more
remarkable, because the company
makes nothing but standard tread cars
of fifty-siX inches.
This indicates that the Maxwell cars
must show remarkably good results on
southern roads or there would be no
chance of their holding their own in
competition with the specially built
cars of other makes. Sales have been
very heavy recently Of the Maxwell
cars below the Mason and Dixon line

0XNARD TO SELL YEARLINGS
Every Horse Bred at His Farm in
Virginia Will Go to the
Sale Rinq
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK. July 4.-After the re-
cent sale of the Oxnard yearlings it
was announced on behalf of H. T. OK
nard that in future every horse bred
at his farm in Virginia will be sent to
the sales ring as a yearling Mr.. Ok
nard intends to race only well-bred
mares purchased from other breeders,
these to be eventually used as brood
mares. Yesterday marked the first
offering of yearlings bred by Mr.. OK
nard and the prices realized were
rather Disappointing, considering the
apparent quality of the youngsters.
That Prince of Melbourne will be a
success in the breeding paddock there
can hardly be any doubt. Yearlings by
the great Sacer were sold yesterday by
E. c, Cowdin. They are sturdy, well
set-up individuals that can hardly fail
to make good under colors, and they
brought fair prices.

WHITNEY OWNS
QUEENS OF TURF
ArtfuI's Retirement and the Accident
to the Four-Year=Old Tanya
Severe Blows to the
Stable
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, July 14.-Never in the
history of racing in this section has any
stable started out with better prospects
than did that of Harry Payne Whitney
last spring. 1t contained not alone the
best racing material that money could
buy, but it contained among the lot
some kings and queens of the turf.
Artful, Burgomaster Tanya and Tim
Der We're certainly names to conjure
with.
But there is an old saying that when
adversely strikes it does so with plenty
of force, and so it has been with the
horses which Whitney fondly hoped
would carry his light blue, brown cap
to victory in the historic events of the
turf.
Probably the greatest drawback that
was encountered was the severe illness
which Trainer John w. Rogers con-
tracted early in the spring This, of
course, was Unforeseen and could not
be helped, but at the same time it
seemed to be the start of the hoodoo
that has lowered over the magnate's
barn all the year.
Trouble Begins
During the absence of Rogers from
the Brookdale farm the first of the
troubles began Artful was being pre-
pared for the Brooklyn handicap, but
her preparation had been slow and Il
fast work of a mile threw her out of
training. With the late Sysonby sick
and out of the running, Artfu was the
logical favorite for all of the big races.
She looked to have them in her grasp,
but dame fortune interfered.
Artfurs retirement was a severe blow
to the stable but the worst was yet to
come, Burgomaster came forth from
winter quarters acclaimed the three
year-old champion. This gallant son of
Hamburg had hardly began his rum
ming career when he was cut short. He
developed an injury to one of his pas
terms and he was too valuable to take
chance with, so he had to be retired.
Then came the accident to the four
year-old Tanya, which sent her to the
farm for the remainder of her days.
Only few days ago the last accident
occurred to jar the Whitney hopes.
Wins First Race
Timber won his first race Of the year
in style that indicated that he would
be able to hold his own with the best
of the horses in training, but like
RnESomaster he had hardly got agoing
on winning streak when he developed
an injury to the frog of one of his
hoofs and had to be let up, probably
for the season at least
In these days when horses of class
bring fabulous prices, 1t seems a pity
that four such animals should go amiss.
OF course the Whitney exchequer is
strong enough to bear the losses.
Roughly estimating, the four horses
were worth $4,000 far too much of
loss for any turfman. Stil Whitney
is the best of losers. and the tide of
luck may soon turn in his favor.

HORSES BACK WAS BROKEN.

Bad Place in Street Causes Hackman
Heavy Loss.
While coming up Main street from
the Central depot Saturday night the
horse driven by ALT Webb, the hack
man, stumbled in some deep holes
that were hid by the mud and was
thrown so violently to the ground that
its back was broken. The animal was
moved to one side of the street, where
it lay that night and all of Sunday,
when a pistol ball in the forehead put
an end to its suffering.
Webb will ask the city to pay him
for the loss of his horse.
