GLENDORA HANDICAP is FEATURE
OF CARD AT SANTA ANITA TODAY
NNl A 77saH - S'Ss5E

N HIS should be the biggest day of
the Santa Anita season thus far
from every viewpoint, providing,
only, that weather conditions are
favorable. With card that is weight
ed down with the best class of horses
that race in winter, a stake event and
a handicap that hardly is less inn
portant and attractive, save for the
money value, there is little that race
goers could ask for that is lacking in
the offering for the afternoon. The
feature event will be the Glendora
handicap at one mile. Thirteen starters
are named in the overnights and in
clude Jack Atkin, Chapultepec, Prince
Ahmed, PinkOla, Glorio, Dominus Aroi,
Miss Sain, Green Seal, Gowan, Maya
zine, John Carroll, Vox Populi and
Orbicular. Seldom it is that a classic
field goes after the big metropolitan
stakes. There Is so much good class
and high speed in this race that it
seems almost assured that if Jack At
kin is beaten over a fast track a new
world record will be hung out after
ward. The Ell Molino handicap is
scarcely less attractive from a class
consideration. Chapultepec, Vox Pop
uli Meelick, Joe Madden, Pinkola,
Colonel Bob, Gowan, Gemmell, Green
Seal and ]. f. Donohue are carded to
start, and as this field is nearly
Identical with that in the stake, some
will be scratched, but a great race
should result. The distance, six and
a half furlongs, offers another oppor-
tunity for new world record if the
track remains lightning fast. A long
race, at one and one-eighth miles;
baby race, a five and a ha1f-furlong
dash and seven-furlong sprint COM
plete the greatest race card ever ar
ranged for winter race meeting any
where. The capacity of the grounds
and stands undoubtedly will be taxed
and a special train service on both
roads is promised so that the crowds
can be properly handled.
Nat Goodwin and his bride, formerly
Edna Goodrich, were at the races yes
terday and occupied a front box. They
were the target of all eyes, the women
folk desiring to gaze on the stage
beauty who captured the veteran fun
maker and the male population at the
races being as intensely interested in
the good sportsman and thoroughbred
who is her husband.
Papa" Dwyer is fully maintaining
his great record as the best starter in
the business and is increasing his
popularity every day by his patient
and painstaking efforts in getting all
horses away to an even break. Since
he came to town the Jockeys are eat
ing more regularly, as he has not
sliced off any of their salaries for
technical offenses and the boys are

in the central part of the state, the
athletic club of that place met last
night and decided to offer a purse of
100000 for a fight between Jeffries and

ably on July 4.
Bill Morrison, formerly prominent

dozen others, are mentioned as being
behind the project Local sports are
not inclined to take the offer seriously.

TAKING OUT MOB INSURANCE.
London Property Owners Apparently
Fear Violence of the Hungry
Unemployed.

A genuine novelty in the way OF
insurance has just been introduced
in London, called ''mob insurance"
1t is taken out by merchants against
possible losses through rioting or
looting by mobs. This does not
mean that merchants fear the suf-
fragettes are about to burst all
bounds and inaugurate a reign OF
terror. Protection is rather sought
against the violence of the unem-
ployed, who are unusually numerous
in London this fall, and are likely
to become more so as the winter ap-
proaches. The most active demand
for this queer insurance is in the Vi
cinity of the parliament buildings,
which would naturally be the OBJ
jective point of mob melted to
make a demonstration against the
authorities. Nothing may occur to
justify the fears of the merchants
who are seeking this form Of protec-
ton, but it is significant of condi-
tons in the worlds metropolis.

st. Paul, Mimi, Feb. 10.-Employ
ers' liability bills are becoming all the
rage this legislative session. In adj
dition to the several already intro
duced, two more made an appearance
today; one in the senate and one in
the house; and a bill of this nature is
yet to be introduced by Senator E. s.
Durment of ST. Paul.
: The bill which appeared in the sen
ate today was introduced by Senator
j. F. MCGOWAN of Hennepin. 1t pro
vides first, that an employer may en-
ter into contract with his employees,
that he shall be relieved of employ
ers' liability in event of their taking
out accident insurance. Any employer
of not less than 1900 hands may car
~ a special insurance fund, the EN-.
ployer to make up deficits in said fund.
In event of death of employee, the
heirs are entitled to sum equal to
four years wages of deceased this
amount to be not less than $4,000. In
event of disability, the amount allow
ed shall be so per cent of the injured
mans wages. In the payment of in
surance premiums, the employer shall
stand half the expense, the employees
the other half. Tomorrow Senator
MCGOWAN will follow this bill with
another measure proposing compul-
sorry insurance of this character, fol-
lowing the German law.
The Elmer E. Adams committee met
today and secured further evidence
on the school book trust Todays wit
nesses testified that book agents at
Winona were conducting a strenuous
campaign to dictate who shall be the
new superintendent of city schools to
succeed Mr.. Frazier, who resigned to
become assistant superintendent Of

warm hearts and large ambitions are.
A charming and characteristic story is
told by Mrs. Sarah Stuart Robbins in
her recent book, "Old Andover Days"
The tale dates back to the first quar-.
ter of the nineteenth century. Its hero
was a certain fiute-playing German
'theologue," afterward famous mis-
sionary. He was poor but fascinating,
and four little girls loved him dearly.
They wanted to buy him cloak, for
he had no protection against the keen
