The Right=Hand Man of Dick Ferris
in Working Out the Real Prob
lens of the Automobile
Show

However wisely and far-sighted Dick
Ferris may have planned the wonder
full decorative scheme worked out in
the automobile show, it is quite safe
to say that he nor any other human
could have brought every idea into
perfect shape without the aid of some
one who first could catch an idea and
then assist in executing it. Ferris
could be in only one place at once.
Things required an unf1agging personal
attention every moment of the day
which he could not give to them. Many
men might be willing enough to serve
as a first lieutenant, but few men had
the capacity. The ideas had to be
taken second hand and made to fit
the first hand conception. And Moselle
filed the job. Devoting the same tire
less energy, the same personal pride
and the same unfailing enthusiasm %
the unweaving Of details as has Fer
ris, quality of harmonious team work
has been accomplished which has re-
quired quite as high a quality of self
effacement and sacrifice of personal
comfort as was required in Ferris. No
man could possibly have been secured
as a lieutenant to Ferris who would
have better deserved the "Well done,
good and faithful servant" than
"Mose,' as he is affectionately known,
and the best thing is that every dealer
on the floor of the show. every Off
cial of the association and every vis-
itor will say the same thing.

his best in company with other horses.
He is an eligible to the Burns handicap,
and on his showing yesterday he will
be the exclusive hope of Santa Anita
horemen. He will be shipped to
Emeryville tonight, and Jockey Page
will go along to ride him Saturday in
the Burns. If he should win, the judg-
ment of his present owners in paying
the enormous price they bid for him
will be fully vindicated, as the Burns
will be worth about $4,000 to the
winner
Favorites Jared better yesterday than
they did the previous day, four popular
choices getting the money, while only
two long shots, both well backed and
held at only fair prices, earned brack-
cts. Bitter Sir found the company and
going made to order for him and won
the first race rather easily. He had
nothing to beat, as the fact that Cres-
ton was second and Royal Stone was
third amply proves.
A. ]. Small had no trouble in win
ming for the talent in the baby race,
being much the best and showing it at
every jump. Rey ell Tovar was second
and Sureget third. Golly Ding put 1t
all over Norbitt and Canardo in the
third race, beating these and zen Ira
vato, Captain Burnett and Light Com
edy in hollow style. Osorine came to
life and annexed the fifth race by
sticking out in front longer than usual.
yet she rewarded the talent by her
improved form, as she was favorite and
well backed. Progress got the place
and Sink Spring, making his first start
Of the season, showed at long odds.
Donald Macdonald showed much con-
sistency by repeating in the last race,
towroping his field to the final jumps,
where he was forced to mild drive
to stall off the fact-coming Guy Fisher.
Mimic, a write-your-ow ticket candi-
date, showed.
There has been so much rain and
mud in the last fortnight that the pub
lie has obtained a definite line on the
abilities of the mudders, and the
horses are running as nearly to form
now as they usually do on a fast
track.

card will be run off this afternoon at

ly attractive card and great sport

definite form now in mud and all are
up to their best races. The feature of
the car will be the Boulevard handi-
cap at nine furlongs, in which VoX

arrangement is so nearly ideal that the
admirers of every horse will find 1t
easy to figure it a chance. The third
race will rival the handicap in at
tractiveness, however, as such cracks
as Tom McGrath, Fleming. Snow Ball,
S1bari, Adriuche, Ida May, Jane Swift
Lord Of the Forest and Kerry will
start, and the six and a half furIongs
will be done in fast time despite the

EARNS CHANCE AT BURNS HAM
DlcAP BY PERFORMANCE
Furnishes Sensational Feature Of
Days Racing at Santa Anita by
Hollow Victory Over
Good Ones
BY JAY DAVIDSON

The sensational feature Of the rae
ing at Santa Anita yesterday was the
decisive manner in which Maltbie, a
4-year- old maiden, beat Montgomery,
Animus and John Carroll in the Burns
trial, a $4,000 selling affair at fur
longs. This event was expected to be
a pickup for Montgomery and he was
made an odds-on favorite and heavily
played. Maltbie was held at extreme
ly short odds, considering the fact that
he was a maiden and up against field
Of highest class. Yet he was played
to some extent.
Maltbie was standing f1atfooted when
the barrier arose, but Page hustled him
along so we'll that when the field
swung wide on the first turn he shot
through like a bullet and from that
time until the race was over he always
was. in front. At the half he was
nearly three lengths in front, with Ami
mus and Montgomery headS-on behind
him. The pace was too stiff for AMI
mus and he was taken back at the
f1ve-eighths. Maltbie continued to
wing his way along out in front and
every time anything got close to him
he would pull away with another burst
of speed sufficient to keep him two or
three lengths to the good.
Montgomery raced into second place
at the mile, but threatened Maltbie
only for a second. The maiden kept
up such a terrific pace that even Mont
gomery could not follow it closely and
he gave way to John Carroll at the
stretch turn Then Animus came the
second time and tried to outsprint the
maiden through the stretch, but to no
avail 1t was a gallop, in fact, all the
way and Maltbie went under the wire
nearly three lengths in front, accom-
panied by the enthusiastic applause of
the crowds that witnessed the start
ling event.
Animus finished stronger than the
others and was three lengths in front
Of John Carroll at the finish, while
Montgomery was a dismal last, thor
oughly beaten off. The time, 1:53 3-5,
is remarkable, considering the condi-
tion Of the track.
Maltbie was sold at auction a few
days ago, when the Offut & Wright
stable was dispersed, for $4,000, Ref &,
Reid being the purchasers. Up to that
time he had done nothing and never
had run in the money, although start
ing a few times at Seattle and Santa
Anita. He ran third last Saturday in
the Ventura handicap, Restigouche and
Magazine beating him to the wire at
seven furlongs in 1:25 3-5 in a track
ankle deep in heavy mud. This was the
first time he had shown a disposition
to run to his morning workouts, and on
this performance he was made a short
priced candidate yesterday.
He is 4 years old, by Deering-
Gretchen B, and has been the sensa-
tion Of the morning trials ever since
the horses began to work at Santa
Anita last fall. He had done various
distances in faster time than the world
records, but never would run to these
works, showing that he would not do
