IRoTTERS THAT WON MONEY
Seventeen Only Had Earnings OF Five
Thousand Dollars as n Result
of Racing I'm 1906.

To win money with the trotters that
amounts to more than the proverbial song
means to travel many miles and race in
many different places, in addition TO the
ordinary vicissitudes connected with the
purchase and training of a young or old
horse. Unlike in running, the trotting
races are classified in the attempt to bring
horses OF the same speed together.
The result is TO make possible trotting
meetings in many small towns, but
aside from the sport they have the
resident drivers to not profit much, for
horse from the outside with speed to
spare usually win the best purse. Class
racing puts a premium on placing and
none on a too early effort TO make record.
unless to win expense money, and the
endeavor to reconcile the two demands is
responsible for many cases at each session
of the board OF review.
AS the real speed OF a horse is not TO be
proclaimed from the housetops, the race
record Of even the leading horses Of
the light harness would present many
contradictions and paradoxes There
never has been any question In the trotting
world that II is unfair to give a horse his
preparation in races Yet the game to
many owners must hardly be worth the
candle.
As now conducted It Is the drivers and
not the owners who receive the notoriety
In the sport when a horse makes a fast
record. The hiding OF the owners under
stable or assumed names suggests the
puritanicaI days and an open confession
would raise the status of light harness
racing.
The trotters that won $500 or more in 1906
numbered nearly 600 Statistics OF the
number OF starts and winners on the har-
ness turf are new and the Horseman OF
Chicago IN presenting such a list says Il
is the first complete one ever published.
In the introduction the false prominence
OF the drivers is apparent from this
paragraph:
There were seventeen trotters out last
year that won 5000 or over. Nut Boy was.

the Holy Cross players, after putting the
game away in the early innings, got up
lefty" as the saying is, to show that the
Brown pitcher wasn't so much. That nat
urally carried the friendly rivals into the
relation of unfriendly rivals.
Amherst and Wesleyan do not play base
ball Tufts and the Massachusetts Insti-
tute of Technology do not fence against
each other. Vermont and Middlebury, even
they are not friends. Worcester Technology
and Holy Cross, although 80 near together,
really are far apart. And so it may be said
of almost all the New Englnd colleges.
The sturdy spirit that will not see any
one else get a point advantage keeps the
politico-athletic situation at fever, or per-
haps higher, heat. They're always either
breaking off or making up. Rarely are they

There is also resentment of the fact that President Roosevelt has come in for strong criticism because of his part in the Fairbanks dinner. At the state functions at the White House wine has been served during the entire administration of Presi- dent Roosevelt, who partakes mod erately of such drinks as he desires. A year or so ago the President ac- cepted a case of beer sent him. He was denounced for this by the w. c. T. U. of Pittsburg. On one of his Western trips through Kansas, Car rie Nation, who had just been re- leased from a jail sentence here, heard that President Roosevelt's car was we'll stocked with good things to drink She came all the way here to reproach the President for per- hitting strong drink in his car, visited the White House and creat- ed a scene there. She was led out by policeman. The Presidents known sympathies for the restora- tion of the canteen, expressed in his correspondence with Bellamy Storer and to many others, likewise bring him criticism How the President is to escape an attack of a severe na- ture is mystery.
 Some of MT. Fairbanks friends believe it is probable that he will come out in a rebuke of the attack on his personal rights and say that if he does so and follows this by leading a fight against further in stances of this kind he is in a po- sition to check the prohibition move ment and give it a hard blow.

NEGRO ASSAILANTS OF
 WOMEN CAPTURED

Jesup, Oct. 3.-After a chase lasting since the commission of the crime, two negroes have been captured and lodged in jail, charged with murder ous and criminal assault upon Mrs. Marvin Overstreet, who resides near here Great excitment has prevailed in this section since the acts were committed
 Ten days ago the first attack was made upon Mrs. Overstreet. Manzie Brown was arrested today at New La cey and taken to jail at Macon for safe keeping.
 He confesses to having made the first and less grave attack.
 A negro named Washington was cap- tured and placed in jail at Baxley. He is charged with the second attack, made last Friday, but denies his guilt. Mrs. Overstreet will, it is thought, recover from this attack, though her head was cut open with an aX.
