Bobby has a good excuse for tardi-
ness with a case of pip or something
else equally serious keeping him on hrs
back in San Francisco, but he has sent
word to Henri that he will put in an
appearance in three or four days.
Koestner and Thorsen, two new puz-
zle pharmacists, arrived yesterday
morning with the dust of Bloomington,

Oaks sleeper check read from Cedar

Murietta friends in time to get here

POOR GARD
FOR TODAY
BUM BUNCH OF HOUNDS WILL
SPORT coLoRs
Third Race Redeeming Number on
Program Which Nuts Will Have
to Themselves Most of
the Afternoon
BY IRVING II. CLEMENT

Aside from the second and third races
the card today at Santa Anita does not
call for much. Lbout the poorest lot
that ever faced the barrier will go in
the fifth number at a mile, and some of
them may not even go the route.
A mixed lot of nuts, non-winners at
the meeting, will start in the first race.
Airs is about due and Burns will ride
her today. Bauble ran severak good
races but prefers mud. Hazel Thorpe
went well last season around Latonia.
Sun Mars, Daisy Frost, Rudabeck and
Prince Frederick are consistent per-
formers and one of them may get a
part of the purse.
An ordinary lot of baby selling plat
ers viii be the attraction In the second.
Bennie's Busy is a rapid breaker and
speedy and with Preston in the saddle
will run a good race. Bald is a fast
filly, but unreliable at the barrier.
Force will be right there all the way
and Dugan will probably ride. Antioch
prefers a three-furlong route, but may
make the longer trip today. Madeline
Musgrave was generally close up in all
her starts.
The best race of the day is the third
affair a purse for -year-olds. c.
w. Burt, All Alone, Bambro, E. M.
Fry, John G. Rice, Ben Stone and sew
eral other fair ones will come together.
1t should be close finish and "hoSS'
race all the way. as all those entered
are speedy and like the distance.
Split of Opener
The fourth is probably split of the
first race and sixteen non-winners at
this meeting are entered Jilette ran \
nice race behind Holton and Korosilany
Saturday and is at her best now. Mel
son will ride. Lady Vashti will have
chance today to redeem herself, but
she is unreliable. Virginia Lorraine is
due to run a good race. Willie Gregg
and Chas. Green show Improvement in
their races.
About the incest collection of the dog
variety ever seen at this track will go
in the fifth race. The best thing to do
here is to sit in the grand stand and
hear them bark. The whole bunch put
together are not worth what the lsso-
citation gives to the winner.
Harvel. Gateway, Friar of Elgin, Lee
Harrison H. Black Mate, Billy Bowlcgs
and about a dozen others of the selling
platter division will furnish the sport in
the sixth event and it is an evenly
matched lot. The one lucky enough to
select the winner should be presented
with sack of Mohawk ore, as it is
one of the hardest races seen here in
some time.

sired to erect something new and
beautiful to their memory. \ happy
idea came to her. She would have a
large vase constructed, containing pots
Of flowers, and set it in the center OF
n flower bed. Within the vase there
should be a tank of water, which by
its own automatic force each day
would water the flowers in the pots
and also the flowers in the bed planted
around the foot of h vase.
Accordingly she Went to work, EN-
ployed a mechanic, superintendent the
construction herself, and in a few
weeks her ideals were realized. The
| original vase may be seen In Green

and must be filled every two weeks
During the heat Of the day the water
slowly drips from the large tank int
a smaller one. BY evening the small
tank is filled. and by its weight
closes the valves Of the large tanl
and opens the valves below, thus al
lowing the water to flow from 1t ant
refresh the flowers during the coo
hours of night. By morning the small
tank is empty, and the weights lift 1
into position again, the lower valve
close. the upper ones open, and tn
tank fills as on the previous day.
