Army Riders Interested
In New York Show

Just what the personnel of the United
States cavalry team will be at the COM
ing twenty-sixth annual horse show at
New York in November has been the
subject of much speculation in army
quarters on the coast. and keen interest
has been manifested in the announce
ments now being made of the foreign
teams. The United States team will be
pitted against the crack hussars and
iancers of Great Britain and also the
flower of the Canadian provincial
forces At the last show in Madison
Square garden the American team was
composed of picked officers from the
Third seventh, Eleventh and Four
teenth United states cavalry.
The English officers are already be-
ing coached for the show and viii send
a team across the Atlantic under Hon.
J. G.. Beresford, ID. s. o., Seventh hus-
sars. Aldershot. Lieutenant Winfield B.
Sifton of Toronto. Can, will be in
charge of the Canadian contestants.
At the international horse show, held
in London, the English were over
whelmed by the riding of the Belgian
and French officers, who crowded them
out for the kings cup. Belgium taking
honors from France and winning the
trophy. The lancers urged, on the con-
clusion of the show, change in their
system of schooling. The New York
show opens November IA and continues
for five days.

REAL FRIED CHICKEN
EXCUSES GLUTTONY
SOutherners Prescribe Cream
Gravy and Various Trimmings

In all the annals of parliaments in
America the consensus would be that
as n specimen of political debate the
closing speech of Stephen A. Douglas
on the Kansas-Nebraska bill stands
first, and even the hostile Horace
Greeley made that admission, says the
Washington Post. In the course of
that splendid argument "the Little
Giant turned to Fessenden, perhaps
the very greatest senator the repub-
lican party ever sent to the national
councils, and exclaimed, Il wish the
senator from Maine had taken the
pains to inform himself on the merits
of this question before he attempted to
argue it,"
And so the southerner may say to
the New York Times. Before it at
tempts to talk about southern fried
chicken let it learn what real fried
chicken is.
OF course, your northerner knows
nothing about southern fried chicken.
He gets his acknowledge of the dish
from the cold fried chicken served him
as lunch when. on railroad, he is
whirling through the cotton south
Now. it is a fact that cold fried chicken
is very little less abominable than cold
fried fish that in culinary sense is an
abomination of denominations
But you kill your plump broiler a
little after breakfast, dress him and
dissect him as he should be- Separate
him into legs. wings, breast, back.
neck, head and feet Let the carcass
lave in ice cold water till it is thor
oughly chilled to the bone, not neglect

mer's day, when the peace is tinkIing
on the shepherds BELLS and blackber-
ries are ripe and roasting ears are lust
coming in--in that season let an old
black nanny cover the separate parts
of the chicken with flour and fry them
fast until thoroughly done in hot bacon

SEVERE DEFEAT
FOR RUGBY team
Wellington Union Administers
a Good Drubbing to Ameri-
can University Stars

The Wellington Rugby Union team in
New Zealand gave the combined Amer
lean team the severest defeat Saturday
that 1t has suffered so far on the whole
tour. The Wellington team scored %
points and our boys could not cross the
opposing line for single point. The
New Zealand union is evidently carry
to games against the American team
and sending into the field against our
boys teams of real merit and thor
oughly representative.
The Wellington team is composed of
the pick of the players in the province
of Wellington. This is exactly the
same as putting an all star California
team in the field against an opposing
team, as was done in the case of the
Wallabies last year. These provincial
teams in New Zealand are exceptionally
strong, and their ability can be better
understood when this score of % is
compared with some of the defeats the
team has sustained in Australia. The
severest defeat there, with the excep-
tion of the New Zealand Maori game,
was II points to 6, by the Sydney uni
versity team.
New Zealand is claimed to be the
country that has the game ofo Rugby
down to the greatest science, and the
ability of the teams wearing the all
black is at all times considered to be
of exceptional merit. The Wellington
team is not representative New Zea-
land team, but simply a representative
state team selected exactly as an all
star California team would be selected.
The games in New Zealand will no
doubt be of great benefit to the Ameri-
can team, as the members will be able
to learn many new points that they
can not learn anywhere else

Championship Contest
By WILLIAM UNMACK

The Alameda team yesterday heralded
its appearance in the third round of
the championship competition by de-
feating the Wanderer team by SO runs.
The Alameda team made a bad start
and five men were out for 50 runs.
Logan, Smith and Wax, however. piled
up the score and a total of 102 was
reached before the inning closed. Logan
played splendid game for his quota
of 33 runs. When the Wanderers went
TO the wickets they Jared even worse
than the Alameda team and the wick
cts went down in quick succession.
Charlton was the only batsman who
made any stand and his total of 33 was
a well compiled and vigorous inning.
Charlton and Stuart were the most sue
cessful trundlers for the Wanderers.
while Howard and Nield bowled un-
changed for the Alameda team.
The complete scores were as follows:

MED by white man named Richard
Comiskey, who, Johnson says, is his

At Forty-second street the dusky

around sharply and almost cut across

Broadway again. Comiskey was un-
prepared for the sudden sharp turn,
and as the tilted he was thrown
from his seat to the pavement
Johnson threw his weight on the
brakes and brought the car to stop

Comiskey lay with his leg doubled un-

carried him to the automobile and
thence to Roosevelt hospital Comis-
keys leg was fractured above the knee.
