AT the Same Time These Fairs
Are "Meal Tickets" for
the H0rsemen.
BY W. E. ERLER.

The praise bestowed in all quarters
upon the several fairs and race meet
ings in this vicinity is richly deserved.
Not so many years ago not a great deal
of attention was paid to the light lar
ness racing, and the racing programs
were everything but high class con-
tests of extreme speed. In recent
years, however, men of brains and
ability have demonstrated hat the
greatest fairs would be the ones that
paid the largest amount of attention
to the ~trotters and PAGERS, and that it
was a wise hing to increase the purses
and attract the best racing stables to
these meetings, and this in many in
stances has been lone with the most
gratifying results.
Not only do the best trotters and pac-
ers in training race at these meetings,
but the attendance on that account is
increased tremendously. This has en-
abled the promoters not only to increase
the value Of the stakes and purses for
trotters and PAGERS, but to expand in
other directions. Because of the in
creased gate receipts 1t is made possible
to increase the value of the premiums
in all departments, and to build hand
some and permanent exposition build
ings.
The county fair plan o. racing Is ap-
parently on a sound footing, n has
the approval Of the most intelligent
horsemen in the game, and the stakes
and purses are of a value in most in
stances to command the best horses,
and the management generally sees to

erly cared for and their stay made
pleasant, so that they will be DESTROYS
of returning In following years. No
detail is too small or seemingly unim-
portant for the gentlemen In charge
of the fairs to overlook, and in conse-
quence there is the best feeling be-
tween those who furnish the horses and
those who SO generously provide the
purses.
Many have been the sensational miles
by green performers over the half-mile
tracks so far his season. Particularly
is this true of the 3-year-olds, both trot-
ters and PAGERS. Several 3-year-oid
PAGERS have taken records better than
2.15. and a number of aged horses have
performed better than 2:10. Many rea-
sons are advanced for this exceptional

better training, and last but not least,
a much better condition Of the half
mile rings. The necessity of keeping
half-mile tracks in a parlor condition
is much better understood than in the
past, and the pride of the u~p-to-date
associations in getting their plants into

broken n thereby create unusual in

realized that his only hope of ultimate
victory lay in close-range fighting.
Moran, however, was not caught nap
ping and kept up a merciless pepper
ing of Hanlon's face. In the seventh
round he had the blood flowing In
streams from the Ca~lifornian's nose.
In the thirteenth round, the only one
in which Hanlon had the advantage, the
Engiishman was caught while in a neu-
trail corner. Hanlon shot g wicked right
to the stomach that sent Moran reel
ing into the middle of the ring. Hanlon
followed this advantage with a couple
OF face smashes. That YVES as far as
he got, for the Briton covered up, and
when the round terminated he went
smiIingly to his corner.
Moran, In the succeeding rounds, hit
Eanlon almost at will. Hanlon's nose
was badly cut, his lips split and both
eyes were all but closed. Hanlon gave
a remarkable exhibition of gameness,
and despite the Misunderstanding pun
ishment that was being meted out to
him, he was always fighting back hard,
and several times forced the English
man to stall.

High school Teams Play.

With the idea Of a~rousing interest in
baseball and OF showing the students that
are attending the Newark High School
annexes at Market and State Street schools
that they are not forgotten or left out OF
athletics, a game of baseball was arranged
and played yesterday afternoon at Branch
Brook Park between a team composed OF
students at the annexes and one composed
OF students at the main building. The team
from the main building was composed
chiefly OF the members Of last years base,
they easi.y defeated the freshman students
of the annexes by a score Of 70 TO 2. The
score by innings.

Quiet Tip on How to Settle
Wrangle in Games for the
Kinkead Cup.
BY EDWARD p. DUFFY.

The complications that have arisen
from time to time In the West Hudson
baseball series make 1t appear neces-
sary that a ~two-umpire system should
be employed at the final championship
anne next Sunday. Umpire Furphy
is a good man; there are none better,
but he cannot see everything. He can
not be on all sides when different
plays may crop out. For that reason
It would appear that the engagement
of another umpire in the K1nkead series
would be the right thing to do.
These games Sunday are going to be
for blood, besides being the most I'M
portant that ever fell to the lot of
West Hudsonites to witness. A man to
work alternately behind the bat and
In the field would be the caper.
"Well, what way could we decide on
that umpire?" the West Hudson men
ask.
Take the names of three good men,
write them on slips Of paper, place
them in a hat and have a small boy
or ONE dasinterested person draw out
one slip-that slip to show the name
of the man who will assist Mr.. Furphy.
An umpire in the field to watch the
two-base and one-base rules is an alb
solute necessity in these games. This
Is only a suggestion; 1t may be good
and 1t a be bad. 1t can be taken
or left.

Moran Easily Earns Decision
Over Californian in 20-Round
Fight at Frisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1.-Owen
Moran. the English featherweight, last
night won the decision over Eddie
Hanlon. the Californian lightweight,
after twenty rounds of fighting. Despite
a disparity OF eight pounds in favor of
the Californian, Moran had the better
of the fight from start to finish, and
only in n round did Han,on have the
advantage.
Moran started in to make his fight
from the tap OF the initial gong. and
kept constantly after his opponent until
the contest ended. In the very first
round he dazed Hanlon with q rapid
fusilade of left punches to the face,
which he varied with solid rights to the
body. Hanlon was no match in clever
ness for the shifty Briton, and soon
