HEATH WANTSM0NEY
Noted Michigan Athlete Brings
Suit to Recover for Loss
of Arm.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Feb. 14.-Homer
Heath, the University of Michigan one
arm wonderful broad jumper, started
suit against Druggist E. E. Calkins
for $4,000 damages for the loss OF
his arm.
Heath is best known for his re-
markable leap Of 22k feet at the
conference meet of western colleges
last year, capturing first place in the
big event. His performance under his
physical handicap was one of the SEN
sational athletic performances of the
year.
Up to April 20, 1905, Heath had two
strong arms. He was doing work in
addition to his university duties as
assistant photographer for Druggist
Calkins. On that day he claims ne
was directed by Mr.. Calkins to 70
into the country and take a flashlight
picture. He maintains that Calkins
changed the chemicals which had been
used in former flashlights without
notifying him, and when he touched
of the composition on that occasion
there was terrific explosion and his
arm was so badly shattered that it
had to be amputated.
AS a further claim for damages he
says that he was in the engineering
department, but was obliged to aban-
don that profession and take up liter
airy work.

TURFMEN JARRED BY
RULING Of THE
BOARD
Barring of "0ld Honesty" i:
the Cause of Much Talk
on Tracks.

Louisville, Ky, Feb. 14.-Racegoers
We're astonished the other day When
they read in the papers telegram
from New York, which stated that Old
Honesty, the premier 2-year-old OF
last season at the Latonia track and
probably the most popular horse that
ran there last summer. had been de-
clared out of the Suburban handicap
because A. L. Darnaby. who trains
the horse. owed the Brighton Beach
Racing association 5000 forfeit money.
A. j. Corey, who is the real owner
of the horse and is also prominent
bank official of Covington. was much
astonished when he received the news.
When Old Honesty left Latonia last
summer he was shipped east, his
trainer pointing him for the rich Flu.
turity. the richest 2-year-old stake m
the world. Old Honesty started sew
eral times at Sheepshead Bay, but was
not in the money. The horse trained
off, but Darnaby got him into condi-
ton to start in the Futurity, but the
horse did not finish in the money.
Stable Boy Argument.
When the racing procession left
Sheepshead Bay Darnaby noticed a
couple of exercise boys whom he took
a fancy to and secured contracts from
their guardians for the boys services
Sometime afterward Darnaby was in
formed by the Jockey club that he
was haboring stable boys under con-
tract to another. This the guardians
of the boys denied and stated that !.
any one else had contracts upon the
boys they were illegal.
Early in December, Mr.. Corey, the
owner of the horse sent on his entry
in the Brighton Handicap and also the
Brighton Cup.
Old Honesty then raced at Brighton
Beach, and, though eligible for a
couple of stakes never started. There
was due in the Brighton Beach asso-
citation replied, acknowledging the en-
try and thanking Mr.. Corey for enter.
ing his horse.
Is Spite Work.
But when Old Honesty was entered
for the Suburban Handicap that asso.
citation declared the horse was in.
eligible because there was forfeit mon
ey due from last year.
1t is the general opinion of Mr..
Gorey's friends that the Coney Island
Jockey club is getting in a little spite
work, just because Darnaby got the
better of them in the argument over
the stable boys.
The Brighton Beach association,
where the forfeit was due, accepted
Old Honesty's entry, but the Coney
Island Jockey club refused his entry
because money was due Brighton
Beach.
Those who know Mr.. Corey are in.
censed at the work of the Coney Is
land officials and declare that Mr..
Corey has been placed in a false light,
so that the eastern officials may even
up matters with Darnaby.

lap track in one minute and seventeen
seconds fiat.
There was seven entries in this
event The sprint started at the sound
of the gun. Anderson taking the lead
and the others hugging him so closely
that they continuously changed posi-
tons. The skaters went around at top
speed, Anderson holding the lead until
near the end of the third lap, when
Ahlroth slowly gained on him and just
as the two were abreast on the final
lap. Anderson fell. Ahlroth winning
out by few feet from Thomson. who
was closely followed by Edward Smith
of Duluth.
Another exciting race was the one
mile championship event, which was
won by Adolph Anderson of Chicago,
In this race Ahlroth took the lead
from the start and set fast pace for
the rest of the field for seven laps.
The pace was too much for him and
Anderson passed him in the eighth
lap, holding the lead and winning out
in 1854. Ahlroth was second ana
Thomson third.

The success of the leading major
league clubs is largely due to the
methods of keeping players in good
condition, in the opinion OF Jimmy
McAleer, Charley Comiskey and other
baseball chiefs Manager Cantillion Of
Washington has secured Jerry Edlnger
who trained the Des Moines champ
ions. to prepare the Nationals for
1907. Edinger is an experienced han
dler of athletes, preparing many noted
wrestlers and boxers for contests. He
is clever boxer, thorough sports
man, and has a sunny temperament
which cheers up losing teams.
Many great ball player has dis
covered his calling as pitcher, in
fielder or outfielder through lucky
beginning. For instance, Bob Wallace
the great shortstop on the st. Louis
American team was originally a
pitcher on the Cleveland team. Chip
McGarr, who was the teams regular
third baseman, was injured one day
and Tebeau sent Bob in to play the
bag, with the result that he was never
again asked to pitch, and is now con-
sidered one of the greatest infielders
the game has ever produced.
Might doesn't always make right,
but it usually makes money.

The Little Duchess.

There are a dozen features that
commend themselves to the devotees
of cal-girlical-comedy in "The
Little Duchess" which comes to the
Metropolitan next Tuesday, Feb. 10.
The star of the attraction is Countess
Olga Won Hatzfeldt, whose position in
the front rank of prima donna come
diennes has been won by line of in
dividual triumphs in musical comedy.
Those are no less than five comedians
in the excellent cast supporting her,
and the large chorus is said to con-
tain many beautiful faces and charm
ing figures; fifty people in all. The
production of scenery and costumes
is described as most elaborate, artis-
tic and colorful, embracing one of the
most gorgeous sartorial displays ever
seen in this style of presentation
the same, in fact, which made a
sensation during Anna Held's long run
with 1.-The Little Duchess" at the
Casino in New York.

Giants Heavy-Hitting Out
fielder Wants the Club to PAY
His Doctor Bill.

New York, Feb. 14.-Nlike Donlin,
the heavy-hitting outfielder of the
Giants threatens to withhold his Sig
nature from 1907 contract unless
his doctor bill for last year is paid
by the club. When Donlin broke his
ankle in game last season the club
officials sent him to a doctor of their
own choosing and carried on ali the
business ends of the matter. Donlin's
salary was paid while he was laid
up, but now the club insists that ne
shall pay the Doctors bills, which
amounts to so much that Mike refuses
to settle, saying that as he was hurt
in the performance of his duty and
sent to the clubs doctor, it is the duty
of the New York management to
settle.

A model of the red-lacquered Bridge

Holy Hill of Nikko, lends color to the
scene. The verdure, foliage and fora

For the second and third acts Mr..
Burridge shows the interior of But
terfy's cottage, the replica of Japa-
nese home, sketched by the painter
during his long sojourn in Japan. The
coloring and construction thus given
has an air of authoritive correctness.
Although striking in its beauty it
shows the dignified simplicity of Jap
anese decoration. The embellishments
used are the finest examples of the
art work of this most artistic race.
The porcelains, carvings, bronzes,
koras and Buddhistic statues were i'm
ported from Japan, as were the fur

furnishes further adornment.

TALK OF SCORING
Magnates Are of Opinion That
Change in System Would :,
be Well.

Chicago. Feb. 14.-At the annual
meeting of the National league in
New York, Charley Murphy of the
Chicago club registered a few kicks
on the method of scoring games. The
question was discussed, only In an
informal way, and no action was
taken.
Murphy favors the establishment Of
a new system based on the same
plans as the arrangement Of the UNI
.pires. He claims that this would be
a vast improvement over the system
that now exists-that of the clubs en-
ploying local men to do the work.
In advocating change in the scor-
ing system. Murphy does so without
any reflection on the integrity or good
intentions of the men who have been
doing the work although he suggests
that 1t is natural for a scorer to give
the players of the home team little
advantage when doubts arise, mucn
to the detriment and injuries of the
visiting players.
President Charles T. Chaplin of the
Rochester club said at the meeting
of the National baseball commission
in New York that there was room
for improvement in the scoring of the
Eastern league games. Chaplin agreed
that the remuneration was very small,
and suggested that much better re-
suits could not be expected under the
condition of affairs.
Chaplin said he thought the average
pay for scorers in the Eastern league
was 81 q game, with the exception of
Newark, where the stipend was Just
half that amount, or 81 a game, en-
tirely too small to get good results.
