went up Miller got a running start with
McCarter, who had a lead of five lengths
in the first 100 yards. But. instead of let
ting the colt breeze the first three fur
longs in about 0.36, Miller put him under
a choking pull, which cut his lead down to
a small margin in the run up the back
stretch. Mcdaniel was on the alert with
Perseverance, and when he got to the far
turn he cut the Whitney racer loose. II
was fierce duel all the way down the
stretch.

was third in the Jerome handicap brought
the total of the Keene stables winnings
on the turf for the present season up to

The amount is nearly 100000 In excess
of the American record for a single stable

established in 1893. the year of Domino's
grea test successes on the turf. The total
amount so nearly equals the sum stated
as the worlds record. made by the Duke
of Portland's horses in 1889, that II is
practically a certainty that Mr.. Keene
will establish a new record. as the win

there are nearly six weeks of the New
York season left for racing by the Keene
horses. The winnings credited to the Duke
Of Portland's stable by the English

Chicago the Favorite.
In al the big cafes and sporting saloons
betting is heavy. Chicago is full OF De-

dollars were put up last night on the re-
suit of the series. For the most part the
Cubs are favorites at odds Of 10 to and

Fast Work by Varsity and
Scrub EIevens on Big
Four Fields.

PRINCETON. N. j., October S.-Satur-
DAYS game with Stevens seemed to I'M
nerve the Tigers, judging from the way
they played yesterday afternoon. and the
coaches handled them with care. One
thing is very evident here, the men are
far from topnotch condition. To sum up
the practice in one word, 1t was loose.
There was q notable lack OF unity in
the yarsity's play and the men were
slow in travelling. The coaches tsent the
first string through the longest signal
drill Of the season. attemptingS to cor
rect the glaring faults of formation which
cropped out in Saturdays game. Above all,
sharp interference on end runs was
pumped into the backs. and when the
work was over Mccormick, Harlan and
Read ran much better than before. For
ward passing came In for its share of
polishing, too but the result did not
cause the coaches to chuckle with glee.
The regular varsity scrimmage was for
only five minutes. When the subs went
in there came a big change, and the sec
ond string ripped up practically anything
their opponents could offer. During the
earlier part Wister tailed on an onside
kick. and Harlan kicked a field goal from
| the 35-yard line. This last was pretty
piece of booting.
Many Coaches at Yale.
NEW HAVEN, October s.-Nine coaches
reported at Yale field yeterday,. forming

prevent the first eleven from making re-
peated gains. the plunging of Brennan be-
ing sensational. Newhall also worked
several clever forward passes. 1t was
the best scrinmage of the year, and
showed up the team better than either
game played.
Regain Pennsy's Star.
PHILADELPHIA, October S.-Pennsyl-
vania's foot ball coaches are relieved be-
cause of the fine game the team put UP
against Bucknell Saturday. Much of the
Improvement is attributed to the fact that
the team played modern foot ball instead
of the old-fashioned line-bucking game,
which was used almost exclusively against
Villa Nova.
The work Of Regan at quarterback was
the surprise Of last week. He gave an
exhibition of running, tackling and heady
playing that would have done justice to
Stevenson. There Is now little doubt
that he will get the call. Some surprise
has been expressed over the failure Of the
coaches to use Regan at drop-kicking in
the games played. He showed last year
on the freshman team and in practice
also that he Is one of the best drop kick
ers in the country. 1t seems the coaches
do not want the players to get the idea
that Regain can do the scoring for them
On this account Regain will not be used
at drop kicking In any of the games I'M
less absolutely necessary.
The work yesterday afternoon was long
and fast, as there Is much to do before
