The east coast of Florida has COM
menced to interest the sportsman and
the man or woman who needs rest
and recreation under the most ideal
conditions, and to that end the Florida
east coast residential enthusiasts. like
DR.. Dewitt Webb of st. Augustine. are
sending out TO the world information
in regard to the beauties OF boating on
the cast coast.
This winter for the first time it has
been made possible for a boat of small
dimensions. If it has power. to go from
st. Augustine to Miami inland through
over 800 miles of the most enhancing
scenery and the most splendid water
conditions. II a man wishes to take
board at Jacksonville and take the ST.
Johns river and go outside. hug the
shore, making st. Augustine about
forty miles distant. This winter the
automobilist found that he could drive
the entire length of the east coast, 366
miles, starting from Jacksonville and
ending at Miami. Good road enthu-
siasts. many of them northern visitors.
with ak, pick and spade have made
the roads between the two points mem

splendid pluck succeeded i'm opening up
the canal dug by the company between

there Is sufficient depth the entire

FORMER SUCCESS ON TURF EN-.
coURAeEs BRITISH RULER

LONDON, Feb. Skiing Edward, en-
Outraged by the showing his horses
made on the turf during the past sea-
son, when for the first time in several
years his winnings amounted to enough
to pay the bill for oats, will take a
much more active part in the racing
during the next season. His majesty's
string in training will consist next sea-
son OF not fewer than twenty-five
horses, all of them highly bred and sew
eral of them giving promise of develop
ing into stake horses of the first class.
King Edward is immensely popular
with racing men. He always has taken
keen interest in the sport and should
his antIcipations be realized It will give
general satisfaction.
The question of the standing and
walk-up starts is still being discussed
among racing men.
r. S. Siever, the former owner of the
famous Sceptre, in a recent article on
the respective merits OF the standing
and walk-up starts, declares that If the
standing start had been in use when
Diamond Jubilee was on the turf the
colt would never have won the Derby,
because his temper was against him.
Barrier Is Abolished
A prominent South African starter
says that the old time Australian bar
rier, which was first in use. modifica-
tlons of which are now in general use
in America, has been abolished, and
one known as Walkers patent Is in
use in South Africa. The merits
claimed for this modern barrier are
that 1t is noiseless and is quick. The
tapes fly over the horses heads, not
away from them, so quickly as to be
hardly discernible, and 1t never gets
out of order.
The death is announced in Germany
Of the once famous mare Geheimniss,
at the age of 2S. AS a yearling she was
bought by the noted jockey, Tom Can
non, for $3.50, and sold as 2-year-old
to Lord Stamford for $4,000. She could
give ten pounds to Shotover, tho Derby
winner of 1882. but both were beaten in
the sensational st. Leger by the 40 to
shot, Dutch Owep. Geheimniss was
owned by the emperor of Germany
when she died.
Easy for Yankees
American jockeys have things pretty
much their own way on the Russian
race tracks. WINFIELD, an American
negro, leads the list with 100 wins out
of 500 mounts. Richards, also an
American, comes second, with seventy
four wins out of 400 mounts. and Rigby,
Cannon and Pickett, Americans, are
well up on the list. The American
Jockeys are very popular with Russian
horsemen.
Under recent enactments 1t will here
after be possible on French race courses
to race 2-year-olds after the first Mon
day in June. They must be selling
platers, however the concession be
ing made in answer to requests from
owners of large stables who desire to
weed out. Up to recently 2-year-old
racing could not begin in France until
the last day of July.

CLAREAIONT. Feb. S.--Pomona
track athletes are showing improved
form in all branches of the sport. Daily
practices and weekly tryouts are being
held and by February 20, the Whittier
meet, Coach Pierce win have a classy
team to enter In the field.
Spurgeon, Rogers and Joos are the
promising trio of sprinters the Pomon-
ans will have in the running. Spur
geon and Rogers are billed for both
100 and 220-yard dashes. Joos will run
the 220 and doubtless the half mile.
The trio will, with Sloane and Mckee,
form the nucleus of the relay. Mckee
is In poor condition this year and may
not be in shape by the Whittier meet.
but Will develop his form for the con-
ference.
Sloane is doing great things in the
Quarter-mile and will likely lower
Browns record in the 440. No one in
the south can touch Sturgeon in both
hurdle races. Palmer and Caruthers
will second him in these events.
In the half Queen, Lorbeer and Wilcox
are doing the best work. Capt. Him
roll could easily star in this race, but
the record miller will doubtless Iun the
mile and two-mile runs.
Lorbeer, Tracy and Luke are the blue
and whites distance men. Lorbeer
shows the most class of the three, es-
pecially in the mile.
IN weight events the Congregation
alists are lacking in talent Metcalf
has done his best in years previous in
the hammer and Davenport is in the
same Xix Tor the shot. Beth men have
reached their limit. No new material
of any worth has shown up this season
so far.
Munger is clearing six feet In the
high jump and has as his satellites
Lorbeer and Tangeman.
In the pole vault Birdsall is doing
consistent work and is reinforced by
three preps-Barnes, Birdsall and
Holley.
Rogers is starring for the sagebrush-
ers in the broad jump and will be as
sisted by Chaffee Baird and Holley.

to ninety days can be put in to good
advantage in boating on the Florida

Los Angeles herald., 1908-02-09

letes as when football recently was
revived. There was one form or THIS
sport that once was the indlNidual tug
of war. 1t was considered by some
great sight to see two men struggling
together TO see which could pun the
other over the line. However, IL was
not much of a contest for most spec
tators, afer all, because that sort OF
thing is stationary and docs hot eau
up a very great interest among those
who watch. 1t is like difficult ground
ing work in gymnastics. Every one
knows that it is hard to do and ap-
plauds more the work that has been
done to get the gymnast up to the
point where he is able to do these
feats rather than actual performance
before him"
incidentally Harvard is planning a
great campaign on the track in order
to get away from Yale the cup for the
dual meet This is the ninth year Of
competition for the present trophy,
and each college has won it four times
Another victory for Harvard will give
the trophy to the Cambridge men Tor
their own. The same is true of VIC
tory for Yale. Harvard has been hard
at work for the last two seasons de-
veloping track men and has at last APP
parently achieved a system by which
dual teams can be made.
In fact the Harvard track team last
year was so ideal a dual meet team
that in the intercollegiate champion
ships IL failed to make anything like
the showing that Johnny Mack's men
did. The Harvard system has been to-
build up the men so that they can take
second and third places in the dual
meet, that is, of course, failing first
places. Last years team was very
strong in the minor places and justi-
fed the expectations of the coaches.
1t is going to be hard task for Yale
to get away with the cup with condi-
lions as they now are. However, as
the Yale men will make a special ef-
fort to get the trophy. a fine battle is
assured when the dual meet comes on.

Figures Are Compiled Showing the
Relative Expense of Motor
Wagons and Kinds Com

Some instructive figures have been
compiled as the result of a demonstra-
ton of a motor delivery wagon which
was placed at the disposal of a MIL
waukee department store and made to
do the work of several delivery wag-
ems. 1t showed that a remarkable
economy was effected, to say nothing
of the saving in time.
On the 23d, z4th, 25th and 26th days
CT last November n demonstration was
made for the Ginbel Bros. of Milwau-
kee, Wis, with one of it's new model
delivery wagons, a car equipped with
four-cylinder, air-cooled, 20-horse
power motor with rating of 1900
pounds paying load, and a. possible
speed of fifteen miles per hour On the
first day three wagons were displaced,
2l0 parcels were delivered in a total time
OF three hours. with a consumption of
three gallons of gasolene and one and a
half pints of oil. On the second day
three wagons were displaced, 155 par
cells were delivered in the outskirts of
the city in three hours and forty-hve
minutes, with d consumption of three
and half gallons of gasolene and two
pints of oil. On the third day four
wagons were displaced and 439 parcels
were delivered in a total time OF four
hours and for,y-five minutes, with
consumption of four and half gallons
OF gasolene and two pints of oil. On
the fourth day four wagons were dis
placed, go parcels delivered in nine
hours and fifteen minutes with a total
consumption OF nine gallons of gaso-
