DOINGS in THE WORLD OF SPORTS

phenomenal Improvement during the
winter. He easily won the 1000 guineas
at Newmarket April 3d. HE principal
opponent is considered to be Louis WI
mans Sir Martin, from John e. Mad
denis Kentucky farm. which is sup
posed to have cost his present owner
$4,000.
Sir Martin is now in the very best of
form. He recently won the Weller
plate at Newmarket. and since then
has given every evidence that he will
be in the running in tomorrow's great
event.
Until recently Bayardo, owned by A.
Falrie, which the American jockey
Maher will ride, was regarded as in
vincib1e, having as 2-year-old won
his seven races easily. But he failed
to make the improvement that was
reasonably to be expected during the
past year and gave an inglorlOuS dis
play of form a short time ago at New
market, which sent his stock away
down.
w. RaphaeTs Louvieres ranks third
in popular favor, and Lord Carnovan's
Valors is considered to have fair
chance, although Minoru beat both of
these horses this season.
American stables are represented
among the Is entries, but the American
contingent, which promises to be
larger than usual, is enthusiastic for
Sir Martin, while the great British
crowd. and the foreigners as WELL will
go wild if the King, according to the
honored custom, should lead the win
ner past the stand.
The latest betting on the Derby is
as follows:
Minoru, S to 2; Sir Martin, 95 to 90
Valens, to 1; Louviers, 10 to 2; Bay
ardo, 10 to 1.

 It is true he committed a violation or the prohibition law which goes to the extent of making it criminal for the farmer or the farmers s housewife to man. ufacture domestic wine from berries or grapes grown at her own back door. The seeming injustice in this becomes appar- ent when it is recalled that before the advent of the prohibition law Georgia legally encouraged and recognized the manufacture and sale of domestic wines by relieving this product from all taxa tion. It was frequently the case that farmers brought in bottles of home made blackberry or scuppernong wine, and ped dled it upon the streets of the clues under protection of the law. It was often good wine, too.
 But the prohibition law has put 1t un- der the ban, and in those counties where the prohibition law Is more highly thought of than 1t is perhaps in some of the larger cities, the farmer may find himself in Jaii for peddling a quart of scuppernong. al though in the latter cases the old-time barkeeper may without much moiesta- ton. pass across the bar a bottle or well seasoned beer, or now and then even a mixed drink.
 Ii is said that the opporents of the pro- hibition law insisted on the provision do- mestic wines because they thought It would tend more speedily to bring the law into disfavor. In the meantime 1t is ike ly also to be productive of occasional injustice

Atlanta did not lose the opportunity to get in a little stroke of business enter prise during the recent visit of President elect Taft.
 Atlanta has long had covetous eyes upon the present postoffice and federal court building, the ground for which was orig inally given to the government by the city. Now that the government IS put ting up a new postoffice building and Will have no use for the old one, except the amount of cash which it might bring, the city thinks it would be a gracious act on the part of the federal government to give it the old building just as a sort of token of esteem
 The subject was broached to President elect Taft while he was here by Mayor R F. Maddox, and 1t was gently hinted that Atlanta would appreciate his services in inc matter of securing the old building for the city
 Judge Taft did not commit himself on inc subiect. but said that he would be glad to takelt up for consideration aftel he enters the White House, and would endeayor to do whatever might appear 10 be fair to all interests concerned.

evolve the theory that certain width is
