ENGLISH JOCKEY CLUB.
most Autocratic Governing Eosy In
The World Of Sport

the World OF S port.
a writer in Fry's Magazine explains
the origin and development Of the
Jockey club, the most powerful and
autocratic governing body that is to be
round IN the whole world OF sport. The
Jockey club has an enormous power
ana IS feared and respected by all who
are subservient to it, and yet nobody
ever elected it or gave it its authority
But 1t is the ideal governing body for
racing. One of it's most notable
achievements was the virtual warn
Ing off, Newmarket heath, though not
IN so many words. of a Prince of
Wales, he who was afterward George
w.:
His Jockey, Sam Chifney the elder,
was accused of riding the horse Es-
cape unfairly. and the Jockey club de-
manded that he should be expelled
from the turf. But the prince believed
mat the accusation against Chifney
was entirely wrong and unjust, and he
determined to stand by him at any
cost. lhereupOn the three stewards
OF the club who were then in Office
were called upon to take action, and
Sir Charles 'Bunbury. on behalf OF
them, ilti.nated to his royal highness
that If he retained Chifney in his serv-
ice no gentleman could or would run
against him."
Greatly incenSel. he withdrew from
the turf altogether and did not re-
sumo his patronage Of it until nine
years later

something About What Is Called Plant
Intelligence.
AS the animal is nearer to US than
the vegetable, SO is animal intelligence
nearer akin to our own than plant in
telligence. We hear Of plant physi-
OlOgy, but not yet Of plant psychology.
When plant growing in darkeneI
room leans toward the light the lean
ing. we are taught, is a purely me-
chanical process. The effect of the
light upon the cells Of the plant brings
it about in purely mechanical way,
but when an animal is drawn to the
light the process is a much more com
pick one and implies a nervous system
1t is thought by some that the roots of
water loving plant divine the water
from afar and run toward it, The
truth is the plant or tree sends its roots
in all directions, but those on the side
Of water find the ground moister in
that direction and their growth is ac-
CELEBRATED. while the others are checked
by the Gryness of the soil. An ash
tree stands on a rocky slope where the
soil is thin and poor twenty or twenty
five feet from my garden. After awhile
it sent so many roots down into the
garden and so robbed the garden vege-
tables Of the fertilizers that we cut the
roots of and dug q trench to keep the
tree from sending more. Now, the gar
dener thought the tree OWNED the rich
pasturage down below there and reach
ed for it accordingly. The truth is,
suppose, that the roots on that side
found little more and better soil and
so pushed on till they reached the gar
den, where they were at once so we'll
fed that they multiplied and extended
themselves rapidly. The tree waxed
strong and every season sent more and
stronger roots into the garden.-John
