supeTexcellence of an Ormonde, a
Hindoo, or a Colin. In such antagon-
lists as Uncle, Fair Play, King James,
Firestone, Dorante, Stamina, Chapul
tepec, Cohort, Royal Tourist, and
Meelick he met and vanquished horses
better than the best of many other
years. For instance, IN 1906, after Bur-
gomaster broke down. Accountant
made a clean sweep of the rich g.
year-old events of the eastern turf
and was the chief money winner of
the year. This was because his OPP
position was of mediocre class, and it
is more than probable that each of
those named as Collins opponents was
easily Accountant superior, certainly
most of them were, and high-class rae
ers they all were.
In all, Colin ran In 10 races and
won them all, To him fell the rich
est prizes of American racing, and
men who have grown gray in watch
ing the successive generations of our
horses come and go declared none
his equal had ever before come from
American breeding. His victories were
Ia purse, the National Stallion race,
Eclipse Stakes, Great Trial Stakes,
Brighton Junior Stakes, Futurity
Stakes, Flatbush Stakes, Produce
Stakes, Matron Stakes, Champagne
Stakes, Withers Stakes, Belmont
Stakes and Tidal Stakes.
1t is well known that he was taken
to England for racing that year, but
could not be started 1t is not so gen.
erally known that while in training
his speed was tested against two of
the fastest sprinters In England and
that he simply ran away from them.
Unluckily he fell hopelessly lame d.
rectly afterward, and English turf pa
irons were deprived of the pleasure
of viewing the nonpareil of American
racing in action.

10. HENRY" DEAD.
Well Known Writer of Short Stories
Expires as Result OF Operation.

New York, June 5.-William Sid
ney Porter, known best under his pen
name of 20. Henry" as the writer of
brilliant short stories, diede this
morning at Polytechnic Hospital. He
underwent an operation on Friday
and never rallied. The nature of his
ailment was not made known. Mrs.
Porter, who had been in South Caro-
line, was summoned by telegraph, but
did not arrive here until tonight, af-
ter her husbands death.
Mr.. Porter was born in Texas AZ
years ago and began his journalistic
career on the Houston Post. Before
that he had been cowboy, sheep
herder and druggist and an extensive
traveller. The general public knew
little of his private life, for he shun-
ned interviewers and was content to
be known merely through his writ
ings as 20. Henry"
His breezy paragraphs penned in
Texas first drew attention to the
young writer several years ago, then
he launched forth with Sunday
stories for New York paper and
was quickly recognized as writer of
ability. Magazine stories followed
and his fame was assured. 1t was
only two years ago, however, that
any but his closest friends knew his
real name. Then he reluctantly con-
scented to have his photograph print
ed with brief biographical sketch.
