Little Cricket" Kelly, whose good
showing in the saddle of late marks a
return Of the promising form that he
exhibited as a rider under ollie John
sons tutelage here last spring, tied
Walter Miller for the riding honors of
last week at the Emeryyille track.
Both of these boys rode six winners
and Jockey Gilbert. who had headed the
list the previous week. ran a close third.
Kelly continued in the service of Matt
Reiss, the Seattle turfman, when Ollie

Reiss, and the boys engagements have
since been made by Joe Tigne, the sta

Wonderful Form

The first cross country championsbfu
race held under the auspices of the
Pacific athletic association was decided
over course estimated at six and a
half miles yesterday in Marin county
The conditions were all against fast
lime being made. but c. Connolly. the
winner, covered the distance in 4s min.
utes IS As seconds. He ran in the col
prs OF the siaplamat Indians, and gave
further proof. If # were necessary. that
ne stands out above all the distance
runners on the coast and that he ranks
with the best in the country when
judged By the severe standard Of time.
W. B. (Soloier) King, who shows
great gameness in all his races. finished
second, nearly $50 yards behind the
leader. King, who represented the
Irish American athletic club. was in
close attendance upon Connolly through
out the entire race, but was outsprinted
IN the final dash at the finish Otto
Boeddiker, the only representative of
the Olympic club IN the race, finished
thiro, nearly minute and half be-
hind the leaders.
The course was a particularly severe
one, as in addition TO the muddy roads
strong wind blew in the faces of the
runners on the last half Of the course.
This was from the Olympic club boat
house at Belvedere to FL Campo and
return ". Meyer, who finished in fifth
place, lost one OF his shoes a mile from
the finish, which slowed him down at a

Winning Owners

s. c. Hildreth, who leads the list
of winning owners at Emeryville by
margin which insures that he will fin
ish the season at the top of the list, is
now close to his record of last season
on stable earnings, and probably will
exceed that mark by substantial
amount. The distribution of money in
purses by the New California Jockey
club since the opening OF the season
now totals s332,1s5, and the following
81 of the 1sS owners that have shared
in the distribution have won in excess
of 81 500 each.

Jockey Gilbert has advanced to fifth
position in the list of winning Jockeys
for the season, and is likely to be in
third place by the end of the present
week if he continues to show the same
good form that has marked his riding
during the past few weeks. 1t is quite
within the probabilities that the close
of the season will find him second to
Walter Miller on the list. The standing
of the boys who have ridden at least
one winner since the opening of the
season is now as follows:

NANsEN,s CARRIER PIGEON.

One day carrier pigeon tapped at
the window of Mrs. Nansen's home in
Christiania. Instantly the window
was opened, and the wife of the
famous Arctic explorer in another
moment covered little messenger
with kisses and caresses. The carrier
pigeon had been away from the cot
tage thirty long months. but had not
forgotten the way home. 1t brought
a note from Nansen, stating that all
was going we'll with his expedition in
the polar regions.
Nansen had fastened a message, to
the bird, and turned it loose. y.
The frail carrier darted out into
the blizzardy air, few like an arrow
over perhaps a thousand miles of
frozen waste, and then over another
thousand miles of ocean, plains and
forests, to enter the window of its
waiting mistress and deliver the mes
sage which she had been awaiting so
anxiously.
We boast of human pluck. sagacity
and endurance; but this loving car
rier pigeon, after an absence of thirty
months, accomplished feat so won-
derful that we can only give. ourselves
up to amazement and admiration.

BOYS BATTLE WITH SNAKE.

Dan Russell. of Brownsville, and
Wren Tyus, residing west of town,
went fishing Thursday in Big Hatchie
River, near Van Buren, nine miles
from here. AS they stepped into the
boat they noticed a big moccasin
snake crossing the stream. They
had hardly left the side Of the river
when the moccasin discovered their
design and came back, meeting them
in midstream, showing fight by his
upright position. Russell struck at
the snake with an oar and sent him
under the water. He came up more
vicious than ever He struck savage
ly at the boat and its occupants and
made a dash for the inside of the
boat.
In their efforts to keep the snake
out the boys overturned the boat and
both were in the water with the mad
snake. TheJ dived and came up di-
rectly opposite the reptile. A second
dive was made and the snake followed
Tyus and bit him in the thigh. He
came up calling for help. Russell
managed to get him to the bank and
examined his wound, which was fast
swelling. He carried him to his home
near by and there medical assistance
was rendered. He is very sick, but
the attending physician thinks that
he will over.-Brownsville Corre-

"Yes," answered his mother, i'm.

ESCAPES FROM RUSSIAN PRISONS

-~~ON~@ %<o - AsONA Az JULIAN liooNO
No other country has witnessed so
many daring escapes from prison as
has Russia, says Jaakoff Prelooker,
in an article in the World Wide Mag
azine. Probably the simplest escape
ever effected by political prisoner
was that Of the famous Mile. Sophie
Perovskaya. Belonging to the high
est Russian aristocracy, she Joined
the revolutionary movement, and at
the age of seventeen was arrested,
but was liberated. In 1878 she was
again seized and was sent to the Arc
tic regions.
On the journey Sophie had several
opportunities to escape, but the
guards were SO kind to her that she
would not risk the punishment they
would suffer. Finally two guards
were put over her who were so brutal
that she was freed from conscientious
scruples.
One night the party had to stay at
a railway station; the two gendarmes
slept in the same room as the pris-
oner, one at the window, the other on
the floor before the door.
Sophie appearing to be fast asleep,
the guards soon fell asleep, too. The
prisoner then rose, tried the door,
which she found to open outward,
stepped across the slumbering guard
and was free. She managed to slip
into a train for st. Petersburg, while
the gendarmes snored on.
Sophie took part in the plot for the
