SHEETS CALLED
IN AFTER RACE
REMEMBERS VICTORY CAUSES
SUSPICION
Judges May Ask for Sheets on la
Gloria's Last Two Races, When
Public Choice Ran Mis-
erably
by ED MORIARTY

1t will be interesting to note whether
Ascot park judges give forth any
opinion after investigating the book
makers sheets which were called in
when Remember won yesterday after
noon.
A we'll known local plunger, whose
activities have caused speculation since
Ascot opened for the present season,
went about the ring yesterday, and
when Remember came home somebody
had been lady scorched. The plunger
play on Remember indicated an ace in
the hole.
This is not the first evil-appo rims
finish at Ascot, where number of
queer seances have been in order, and
the official AK may fly shortly. While
the present investigation is on it might
not be a bad plan to call in sheets
descriptive of betting on La Gloria s
last two races, which horse sports the
silk of Bookmaker Atkins.
Races Appear Queer
La Gloria, as a heavily backed public
choice, ran brace of Disappointing
races while carrying a top-heavy weight
of popular support. The horse, it is
alleged, belongs to r. d. Williams and
is trained by him, while f. L. Miller
stands as titular trainer.
A very poor chance indeed does the
public stand while flirting with the
property of bookmakers, whether the
entries be placed as favorites or other
wise. An owner directs his Jockeys and
disastrous results may ensue.
The horses belonging to Williams are.
not allowed stable room at any other
track in the country, and what is not
good enough for foreign places does not
go we'll in LOS Angeles.
1t appears as though, with Ascot life
closing, a stack of hay is being piled
in the sunshine, and the judges, it is
hoped, will stamp out the evil.
A horse owner should be absolutely
barred from booking on a track where
his property is running. A pleasing
feature of the Baldwin Racing associa-
tons promises is that no undesirable
owners or bookmakers will be allowed
to control jockeys or race horses. AS a
result clean sport should come.

lUXURIES ARE CUT OFF
FROM HOR0ES IN JAIL
Special to The Herald.

SpeClat TO Inc Herald.
CHAMBERSBURG, Pa, Jan. g.
There are to be no more comforts for
tramps in Franklin county. This edict
went forth today, when the grand jury
reported to Judge Gillian that the thirty
six tramps in the county Jail were not
wholly subsisting on county fare, but
that they were permitted to buy pro-
vender from town grocerymen and
otherwise allowed to make themselves
comfortable.
The grand jury recommends that they
sleep on the floor; that they be prohib-
tied from playing games; that all arti-
cles be taken from them when they are
committed; that they be not permitted
to buy or have tobacco in the jail-in
other words, that prison life be made
as distasteful to them as possible.
If the sheriff fails to carry out the
recommendations of the grand jury and
the matter is brought to the attention
of the court, it is recommended that
the court reduce the per diem allow
ance for their maintenance to such a
figure as the court sees fit.
AT the almshouse tramps who are
committed for a night are not to have
matches, tobacco or reading material.
The grand jury recommended that
when tramps are received at the Jail
| they be thoroughly searched.
| few days ago William Reese, a
| tramp, slashed Linn Stoner. a negro,
so badly in the face that it was feared
Stoner would die. He did the cutting
with a big dirk knife which he was
| allowed to keep when committed.

Today's Selections

An exceptionally good card is offered
for this afternoon. If this is a sample
of what Secretary Boden will serve for
the balance of the season here the
sport will be the best yet.
That faVorite sport, steepIechasing,
will be resumed this afternoon. If
Thaddeus runs to his works and
schooling abilities he shows in the
morning he will probably be returned
the winner. DR.. Logan ran a number of
good races here but takes up weight
which might anchor him. Satchel also
works and schools we'll and should be
among the first three at the finish.
The second race is a hard one to
pick the winner as five horses figure
so close that it is very difficult to sep
arate them. Col. Jack has shown fine
form in all of his starts here. but is
partial to a heavy or slow track. Lord
Stanhope won his three starts in such
easy fashion that there is no telling
how good he is. Arimo will have Bull
man up and with only 10 pounds will
be a dangerous contender all the way
Zethus ran two remarkable races, both
of which he captured after being prac-
tically left at the post He is a bad
breaker, which does not enhance his
chances Ampedo will travel we'll and
has been going great guns in his works
Should finish in this order, Col. Jack,
Lord Stanhope, Arimo.
Escalante showed by his race the
other day that he is fit and ready and
with only 107 pounds up will be a hard
horse to beat. Harding can do better
than he has shown, as can La Gloria
If anything beats Escalante 1t will
come from one of these two. Lookout
for La Gloria, as she will be a long
price. Don Domo has a big package
up and will be very lucky horse Ia
finish in the money. Right and True
is a fast breaker, but prefers a heavy
track. GOV. Orman is fast, but be-
longs in cheaper company. Look for
them to come under the wire i'm this
order: Escalante, Harding. La Gloria
Secretary Boden got in some OF his
fine work I'm the handicap and as the
weights have been allotted the best
way to pick the winner is to close your
Los Angeles herald., 1907-01-03

eyes and stick a pin in the card. Like
them to come Varieties, Cello, Van
Dusen entry.
Phil Igoe. Dulcinea and Big Store
will probably be the ones that will be
fighting it out for the money in the
fifth race and it would be no surprise
to see them finish that way. If any
thing beats the above ones it will be
Edwin T. Fryer, which shows improve
ment with each race.
If Lord of the Forest runs as good a
race as he did his last out there VIII
be nothing to the race. He is not a
very safe proposition, as he sports the
colors of a bookmaker and is trick
horse. Watch J. P. Atkins book. Line
of life is next best and will be a good
one for place bet. Throw out her last
race. as she cannot run on anything
hut a fast track. Revolt was allowed
TO drop too far out of it in her race
Tuesday and will show better per-
formance today. Sir Caruthers and
The Roustabout have excellent chances
TO be among the first three.

LA CROSSE, Wis. Jan. 2.-The vic
tim of a peculiar accident two years
ago, which has incapacitated her from
indulging in her faYorite amusement,
that of dancing, caused Miss Lettie
May Rowley, the belle of the village of
Mather, to bring suit for damages
against the Chicago. Milwaukee and
st. Paul Railroad company. Miss Row
ley was walking along the depot plat
form when a fast freight went thunder
ing by. The jarring of the platform
caused heavy truck to start down the
incline and bump into the freight train
with sufficient force to hurl 1t backward
toward the depot. The truck struck
Miss Rowley and hurled her over a
stove which was standing on the plat
form, causing injuries to her knee
which has resulted In synovitis.
The jury finding a depot platform
was a public highway and that the
company did not take proper precau-
tlons TO keep It safe for pedestrians
awarded Miss RoWley the sum OF $4,000.
Attorneys for the Milwaukee road am
nounce they will make motion for a
new trial.

I hereby call the attention of the Board
of Directors of the several school districts

the holding over of school funds from
was entitled to hold sum not to exceed
$50 The new law which goes into ef-
feet May IS, 1907. provides hat any part
of the SIS per cent OF the money drawn
during the year, and which must be
spent for teachers salary, and for DO
other purpose, rem aiming Oh hand at the
end OF the school year, is forfeited to the
general school fund of the county. On
aud alter May rs, 1907, each district
clerks report will be carefully examined
to see that the 85 per cent is spent for
teachers salary and for no other pur-
pose. Therefore each district having on
hand any part of this SIS per cent fund at
the end of year will forfeit same by virtue
of the law. As have no discretion in
the matterf but only the law to govern
me, districts must look after their in
terests in the matter. Clerks salary
must not be taken from this IS per cent
fund, it must be taken from the Is per
cent allowed for other purposes.

Instances of these facts are

made manifest the fact that
the greatest man was but an

to excite human compassion for

During the past year there

The latest of these demonstra-
tions of force incomprehensible
occurred in Mexico a few days
ago when there were gathered to
their Fathers hundreds of human
beings; when the destruction of
property exceeded the possibility
of estimation; when the earth
was opened, shaken, twisted and
