Madden Forgot About the Million.

NEW YORK. June 1.-After John Mad
denis colt Dead Gone had won the other
day he announced that a fabulous sum
would not buy him-not even a million doll
lars would get him. However, Madden was
mistaken. for when the colt was put UP at
auction Jack McGinnis bid on him. He
was In for thousand and was run up to
S2,400. Then Madden forgot all about his
Million dollar idea and let Lucky Jack
have the youngster.

Betting on the Derby.

LONDON, June There Is very little
talk in sporting circles concerning the Der
by, to be run on the 9TH instant. Layers
will take no liberties with Sieve Gallon,
as they have found that all the SIX to
tours have been greedily snapped up. Five
to four is now the best offer, and there
seems little disposition to back Galvani.
The odds on Galvani are about four to one.

While the use of commercial vehicles has
not kept pace with the use of pleasure auto
mobiles in the past, there is every indica-
ton that their increase will be rapid in the
near future. New wagons appearing every
day in cities Of the country, both attractive
in appearance and efficient in service. are
more convincing arguments for their utility
than any figures which can be produced by
engineers.
James 3. South, president of the National
Federation of Chauffeurs' League, does not
believe in school-made chauffeurs. Il do
not believe a young man can obtain knowl-
edge from a six or seven weeks school to
become at all competent to take charge of
an automobile" he says. "One might as
well work in Il livery stable for six or eight
weeks, and then apply to Kentucky horse

Brightwood passes out of existence, which
will be soon. The last span of the new
10th street bridge Is nearing completion.
and 1t will not be long before the street
will be extended to the Military road
A few years ago, when it was realized
that the Brightwood track was nearing the
end of it's existence, "a number of local men
interested in the light harness game turned
their attention to a piece of land lying
along the Eastern branch, south of Bla-
densburg, in Prince George county. An as
ISOLATION was formed and numerous citi-
zens subscribed stock. AS the life of
Brightwood was prolonged beyond the time
expected, nothing further was done
Within the past few days the scheme has
been revived by the original stockholders,
and 1t is possible that meeting will soon

A. S. Brooke of Prince George, Charles 8.
Early of the same county, and Frank c.
Combs Of St Mary, who owns the fast
pacing stallion Don Cozine, 21O Gen.
Charles Haywood, retired, took in the races
at Brightwood and renewed old acquaint-
ances. The general has been out Of the
game for some years. Ten years ago he
was in 1t up to his ears and owned some
good horses. Charles E. Hartung and ].
May Morrison were regulars at the races
and occupied the highest seats in the grand
stand. John r. Kelly, an old-timer, was
also in evidence as was George P. Eur
horst, a strong prop in the light harness
game IN years gone by.
Starter Frank B. Walker left for New
York Thursday evening. where he has been
starting horses on the local speedway until
a recent date. He will start the horses at
Prospect Park. and it is quite possible that
he will also oficiate at the Montgomery
county fair.

y
The largest field of runners ever seen at
Brightwood performed during the three
days meet. All of the fields averaged
twelve in number, and as the track is mar
row and the first turn sharp it was mirac-
ulous how the races were run without
serious accidents to drivers and Jockeys
On the whole, the bookmakers reaped a
harvest during the week. No very heavy
bets were made, but Huntington won So, 900
In one running race Tuesday. It is pretty
well established that runners are drawing
card at horse trots. They are not the
easiest things to get away, but Starter
John T. Hoge broke the record at Bright
wood in getting bangtails to break. There
were no tiresome waits in any race
Secretary Taylor of the Drivers and
Riders Club, informed the writer Thursday
that it was highly probable that a matinee
would soon be given over the speedway
The reason given for the long postpone
ment was because the horses that were ex-
pected to participate were in training for
the three days meet at Brightwood A
meeting of the club will be called soon and
measures taken to bring matters to focus
1t is also quite likely that the vexed subject
relative to the ownership of the speed
wagon will be settled at the meeting.

Judge BIeckIsy's WIN Probaisd.

Clarkesyille, Ca, June 5.-The
will of the late Judge Logan K.
Bleokley was probated in solemn
form in the Court of Ordinary of
Habersham county yesterday The
instrument is brief, clear and unam-
biguous--just such a paper as one
would think he would prepare. 1t is
in his own handwriting and dated
June 10, 1901. Written at Clarkes-
vile and witnessed by Messrs. j. A.
Erwin, j. l.. York and Nj. G. York,
and the codicil was written in At
fanta and witnessed by Mrs. M. L.
Jones, Mrs. E. A. Bostrum aud Ro-
bert C. Bostrum, and dated Deoem.
Der "a, 1902.
The will names his wife, Mrs.
Chloe II. Bleckley, as executrix, and
after providing for the payment of
debts and the selection by his older
children of certain books and other
keepsakes, leaves all his property to
his widow.
A remarkable thing in the will is
the provision for the payment of two
sums of money that he collected be-
fore the war for clients and which
have never been called for. The
will sets out the amounts of these
two collections and states that his
fee has been retained.
The codicil provides that in case
he dies possessed of any patent righ,
or copyright, that same should belong
to his widow and children share and
share alike.
The instruments were offered fo,
probate by Mrs. Bleckley through
her attorneys, Messrs. Mcmillan 4
Erwin.

Reservation Of Narrow Strip OF Land.

Washington, d. c., May 31.-The
President has issued proclamation cre-
ating a reservation sixty feet wide along
the entire northern border of Mexico.
The purpose is declared to be the sup
preston of smuggling across the inter-
national line.
Private entries in line of the projected
reservation and such portions of it as
are needed for roads are reserved from
the operation of the order. Since the
abolishment of the old free line between
Mexico and the United States it has been
found increasingly difficult to prevent
smuggling across tho border, hence the
proclamation.
