SPORTING GOSSIP IN
NEW YORK CITY.

New York, March Chilly Honey
and Joe Thomas, of San Francisco,
who disputes the claim of the sweet
n to the title, will attempt TO settle
their differences of opinion in a six
round battle before Matchmaker Jack
McGuigan's National Athletic club at
Philadelphia tonight. Although the
bout is for the welterweight champion
ship of the United States, the men
will not fight at welter weight limit,
142 pounds, as Thomas has admitted
that he cannot make that weight.
Sixty per ent of the gross receipts
will be divided between the
on a 60 and 40 basis. Both men have
posted f~orfeits of $500 with the club
officials as a guaranty that they will
be on hand when the gong sounds
tonight. A large party of Boston and
New York sports have gone down to
QuakertOwn to witness the bout, and
will back Honey to win the decision
if anything like reasonable odds are
offered.
Sportsmen's Shaw at Garden.
The fourteenth annual S~portsmen's
show at Madison Square garden has
been without exception the biggest
e ever pulled off by the bold
Nimrods of widest Gotham. The gar
was transformed for the occasion
into a sportsma1's paradise, with va
rious hunting and fishing camps in
all parts of the country perfectly re-
produced. The program of sports ar.
ranged for the occasion included wa
ter Spouts in a great artificial lake
built in the center of the garden,
fly and bait casting contests, fish lies,
49, -,
tests and other amusements, all of
which were carried out with great
gusto by the sportsmen.
The garden was decorated through
out with balsam frs, giving it with
the picturesque camps an atmosphere
very foreign to the bustling life of the
great metropolis beyond the doors.
The exhibits included everything in
the line of sporting goods and were
the most complete ever shown in
America, every leading manufacturer
and dealer in the country being repre-
setned.
Vanderbilt Horses Look Good.
New oYrk, March 6.-Alfred G.
Vanderbilt has returned from London
where lie made arrangements for ex-
hibiting his half million dollar string
of twe1ty-seven horses at the Inter2a-
tional horse show to b. neld at the
Olympia in June. The thoroughbreds
are now in training quarters at Red
Hill farm, Edgeware, lee the English
capital M Manager Charles H. Will
o sends the most f1attering re-
ports of their condition to his young
millionaire employer. After the IN
t%ernational show the Vanderbilt
string will be exhibited at the open
air show to be held at Richmond Park
in Surrey, and later will be taken to
the Hague for the big continental
show.
Among the horses taken to England
by Mr.. Vanderbilt are the park four,
Polly Prim, The Major, The Young
ster n Sweet Marie, which have an
unbroken line of first prizes to their
credit. The road four, Vanity. Vik-
ing, Vogue and Venture, are also I'M

to the efficiency of the common

cent. to the efficiency of the common
schools?
The effort to discredit this plan to
elevate New Mexico's common schools
by seeking to discredit the motives
of h thoughtful, sincere men who
proposed the plan is contemplate.
Has a better plan been proposed?
Has any other plan beef proposed?
Not at all. The desire of the men
who play politics for revenue only,
and their newspapers, is to leave the
office of county school superintendent
just where it is, on the low level of
a political prize, to be used as a pawn
in the game of machine politics.
The educators of New Mexico de
serve and they will receive the com
mendation of every father n mother
in the territory, whose children they
are seeking to benefit by raising n
standard and efficiency of the schools.
This movement, headed by the educa-
tors. who are the natural leaders of
such a movement, will go on, broad
ening n Strengthening as the people
come to understand it's purpose more
fully until the schools of New Mexico
are taken entirely away from the de-
grading n retarding influence of
machine politics.

Storm King, two substitute parksters,
and a second quartette of the same
class, including Fultress, King James
King Edward and Gibson Boy, are al
so in the Vanderbilt string. Cabby
gets his name from the fact that he
was picked up by Mr.. Vanderbilt as
a cab horse at Syracuse. and since
being placed in charge of the lander
bilt trainers las developed wonder
full class. Other Vanderbilt horses
to be shown at london include Alert
and Lady Kathryn, runabouts; Lucille
a saddle mare; Watson, Dodo Prim-
rose and Rustling Silk.
The Olympia, where the Information
al show will be held is nearly three
times as big as Madison Square gar
den, and Manager Wilson believes
that this will be greatly to the advan-
tage of the Vanderbilt horses. as they
are not SO easily tagged out as the
English parksters and roadsters.

The Record does not fully agree
with the plan of the educators of the
Territory to place h selection of
county superintendents in the hands
of a board Possibly we have been so
understood, and we have not much
objection even to that plan If 1t is
the only way out However, we be-
lieve That a law requiring certain
qualifications for the office of county
superintendent would be sufficient.
There may be counties IN the Terri
tory where properly qualified men
could not be secured, and in that case
perhaps the proposition of the edu-
Gators is the only solution In the Pc
COS Valley counties we have plenty
of men qualified for the Office, and
usually elect such men regardless o I
the fact that the present law does
not require any special qualifications.
We publish today an editorial from
the Albuquerque Journal, which in
general we endorse, with the reserva-
ton taat IL the desired result in the
uplifting Of the of education
can be secured through a popular |
ton we should prefer that to h pro-
posed board system.

The Shirt-Waist Suit.

There were rumors afloat early in
the season that the shirt-waist suit
would not be in it's usual high favor
with this years summer girl writes
Grace Margaret Could in Woman's
Home Companion for July. Every
one was proclaiming the universal
vogue of the jumper dress.
Now, however, the tide is turning
and the shirt-waist suit is again as
serting itself. And there is no doubt
that it is smarter than ever.
"Of cours, the shirt-waist suit has
had to look to its laurels, and perhaps
that's why the new design are so ori-
ginal and extremely attractive. All
sort of material are used, from voile
in a worsted suiting pattern to inexpen
sive striped gingham. Brown linen
is also in high favor for ashirt-waist
suit. Other materials which are in
vogue are figured madras, pique, ,mer-
cerize rep, cotton poplin, pongee and
striped and checked silks"
