o. L. Rogers Of Sacramento, owner of
Surety, Wooden and several other horses,
learn something about the running of the
horses at the spring meeting, on account
Of which their trainer, p. Smith, was
virtually ruled off. 1t was explained to
him that both the horses named threw
disgraceful form sOmersaults. Surety,
after some good races, came out one day
a dead one" while Wooden performed
an acrobatic stunt with the reverse En-
glish-in other words, after several par
ticularly bad races she suddenly "came
to life" and cleaned up. Mr.. Rogers was
further informed that none of his horses
will be allowed to start at the Buena
Vista track until it is established to the
satisfaction of the stewards that Smith
has nothing to do with them. The Call

BUENA VISTA NOTES

The prediction made by some that the
volume of business in the betting ring
would show an increase of fully 100 per
day was more than realized. The play
was very much the best of the meeting,
partly because the public was on velvet
early in the action, but more so because
the confidence of the patrons of the track
that the racing is being conducted along
right lines has grown with each day ;
racing.

Jockey A. Thomas. who was suspended
by the judges Wednesday for rough rid
ing on No Quarter, has been reinstated
The officials have discovered that No
Quarter, a heavy-headed horse, has the
habit of swerving and it was because
Thomas is not strong enough to keep him
straight that he swerved in Wednesdays
race. The reinstatement carries with it
the provision that Thomas will not be
permitted to ride No Quarter in his flu
ture races here. The clever lightweight
will resume riding Tuesday.
Madeline Musgrave demonstrated yes
terday that her defeat by Kerry a few
days ago was a fluke, due to the fact
that J. Henry was in no condition, by
the easy way in which she beat better
sprinters than Aquiline, who ran Kerry
to a half length in the previous race.

All predictions for the greatest program
Of harness and running events ever given
at a state fair in Utah have material
lied, as a glance at the following entries
in the harness events shows. In the runs
the Utah handicap has filled handsomely,
and with the number Of high-Class run
ners now in the state the daily running
events viii bring fancy fields to the bar
rier
The meeting this fall viii see more
money IN purses and more horses in num-
Der and quality entered than at any pre-
viOus meeting. A. b. Christensen, speed
supervisor, who will have charge of the
track events, and Horace S. Ensign, sec
rotary of the association, are already
working practically night and day on the
meeting, and the success Of the nee ting
will be largely due to their efforts, as
we'll as to the state fair board, which has
placed every induCement to the front for
a successful meeting.
Every harness event has filled, record
for the fair meetings, and racing of a
high order is assured.

HUGHES INJURY
IS NOT SERIOUS
Walter Johnson Says Long
Tom" Will Not Be Kept
Off Job.

The report that Tom Hughes. the
elongated twirler on the National pay
roll, had his finger seriously injured.
and that he might be kept out of the
game for some time. was treated as
Joke by several of the other members
OF the team when seen this morning.
In speaking Of the accident to Hughes.
Walter Johnson said: 1T is merely a
pinch caused by an elevator gate clos
ing on the digit. While the blood for
awhile congested under the nail an IN
cision with a penknife quickly eased
the Inflammation. and when Tom left
here late last night he said the pain
was hardly noticeable. and that there
was no probability OF his being kept of
the diamond with the injured member"
Johnson has been confined in bed for
several days, but is now sufficiently
above the weather to venture out. He
has been kept down with a malaria
anectation. When interview this morn
ing the Idaho blond stated that the
doctor had given his permission for a
little outdoor exercise. and that in all
probability he would go out to the
park with the boys tomorrow and in
dulg9 in q brief workout.

NEW YORK. April s.-wnis Britt.
manager Of Stanley Ketchel. middle
weight champion, is on the warpath to-
day. The boy manager says that I'M
less Jack Johnson consents TO meet the
Montana fighter he will claim the
heavyweight championship and be
ready to defend the title against all
corners.
Britt says that should Jim Jeffries
agree 70 fight Johnson. then he viii

Johnson Is accused of huking out of a
match with Ketchel after hurting def
at the middleweight champion from
Chicago, but when cOrnered refused to
sign claiming that ketchel was too
sna.- and not In the heavyweight class.
Jeffries still maintains his silent atti-
tuce despite the fact that Johnson yes
terday offered to knock out the Los
Angeles farmer inside of twenty rounds
or forfeit the entire purse.
That a meeting between Kaufman
and Johnson is not likely to occur in
the near future became known today,
when Billy Delaney, the big Cali
fornian's manager. announced that
after AIS bout with Tony Ross next
week he would take his man to Eng
land
And, IN the meantime. the only as
pirant for the premier title in the
pugilistic world who is ready to fight
is Stanley Ketchel, and the big guns
are not falling over themselves to get
any of his money.

GEORGETOWN FALLS
BEFORE COLUMBIANS
Sad Reversal Is Responsible
For Hill Toppers' Loss in
Ten-Inning Game.

Georgetown suffered a crushing re-
versal in its game with the Columbia
collegians yesterday, misplays and the
timely bingles Of the visitors bring
ing the second defeat of the season
by to 3.
Joe Montgomery was on the slab
for the locals up to the eighth inning
when his ascension in that session
brought Balzer to the box The sub
stitute Jared little better. the heavy
swats of the visitors in the ninth
inning tieing the score and another
series. coupled with several misplays,
giving them the game in the extra
session.
1t was a bad off day for the Hill
toppers and little or none OF the eN-
cellent work either in tho deld or at
bat, which has characterized most Of
the games this season was apparent
A previous reversal OF this sort proved
profitable to the locals and they re-
covered in grand style so il is con-
ffdently expected by the Blue and
Gray rooters that the Georgetown
outfit will be in fine fettle when it
stacks up against Princeton tOmor-
row.

Pertinent Notes From Fields
Of Capital oAn1ateur Players

this park has been used hut seldom.
Several high school contests were
played there last spring, and one or two
football games in the fall. II is true
the Sunday School League opened ne
gotiations for the park, but as soon as
Ii was learned the grounds at Thir-
teenth and D streets could be obtained.
activity along this line ceased. The
Capital City League. according to Pres
ident O'Shea. has lost none Of its pres
uge since charging admission to the
park. In fact the league leader is re-
sponsiOle for the assertion that in two
seasons the organization has cleared all
expenses and viii start the present
session in fairly good financial condi-
ton. With better facilities and as good
a patronage would not a league playing
in the Northeast park be even more
profitable?
