proprietorship over a bank roll that
would choke an alligator and he prob
ably will have ample opportunity TO
hew it down to an ordinary mans size
before the daisies bloom again.
Joe Zeigler another eastern book
maker with the habit of operating upon
an extensive scale, also arrived yester-
day from Latonia, accompanied by Mrs.
Zeigler. He took no chances of having
to work short-handed, so he brought
along his crew.
Jesse Armstrong-thi is a real So
ciety note-who had a practical mo-
nopoly on the grand stand bookmaking
operations last season, and Sol Allen
berg showed themselves last night
along the Rialto. They will lay odds
against every starter during the winter
meeting and each promises that there
will be no trouble in getting down ev-
cry dime that is desired to be invested.
Steve L'Hommedieu, well known
wherever horses run for money, will
hang up his slate at Santa Anita dur
ing the winter meeting. Steve has as
much respect for a dollar as any other
spendthrift and about all he seems to
know about money is how to make 1t
and get rid of it If he ever acquires
the art of keeping even a small portion
of what he gathers in from time to
time, he will leave a dandy estate when
he finishes his last race in this life
Steve cannot resist the temptation to
play them from the ground and also
takes great liberties with his bank roll
v en- on the block, always laying tops,
and to these two failings must be at
tributed his ever-changing fortunes.
Steve is a good fellow and has none of
the hypocrite in his makeup. That ex-
plains why even his enemies are glad
to hear that he is prospecting once more.
John Hyland, one of the best known
trainers in America, brought a big
bunch of handy racers to Santa Anita
yesterday. He has in his charge sew
eral horses owned by the Elkwood
Park stable, the racing firm name used
by Fred and Walter Lewiston, and a
few owned by Charles II. Fleischman.
Tony Bonero, ETHEREAL and Footpad are
among the good ones which he will send
to the post during the winter.
Secretary Randle and Handicapped
Smith are working overtime on the
stake books. which they hope to have
ready for distribution by Monday but
which may be delayed until opening
day. 1t is no small task to -rranse
stake book where there are nineteen
events with an average of SO horses to
each. Each entry must be arranged by
name of the owner in alphabetical
order and give the age, color, sex and
breeding of the entry. Naturally 1t IS
slow process.
Billy Mckinney had another birth
day yesterday and private advices are
to the effect that he was 20 years old
although nobody would suspect he was
so aged to see him parading up and
down the streets like a 2-year-olc
chawing gum like school girl and en-
loving life like youth without a care
Billy tried to keep his secret, but, OF
course they will out. Billy is such a
nice little fellow that everybody hopes
