(By Bert E. Collyer.)

jacksonville, Fla, Dec. 1.-THE
present race meeting at Moncrief park
this city, is the truly remarkable and
formful starting of A. B. Dade, the ST.
Louisian, who succeeded Curley Brown
at the barrier. Indeed, his work is such
a vast improvement over that of last
winter. that natives, talent and horse
men as in one voice, ask the pertinent
question, Were not few of Browns
starts too bad to be true?' why was
he tolerated." Not a few intimate that
some of Browns sendoffs from the bar
rier last winter were reflected in the
betting ring This, as previously init
mated, is now eliminated with Mr.. Dade
welding the flag.
Horsemen, those who raced under
Mars Cassidy during the fall meetings
in Kentucky, have gone on record as
preferring Dade's work to that of the
eastern official. This may or may not
be too far fetched. Both are undoubt-
eddy peers in their modes of starting
horses, for be it known that where
Cassidy sends his fields away in mo-
ton, Dade still holds to the flatfoot
or standing break. The only objection
the horsemen have commented relative
to Cassidy's starting is that in the
spring races. These, especially the five
furlongs dashes, the horsemen argue,
are not favorable to many horses in
that Cassidy oftentimes springs the
barrier with mis- field so or 20 foot back
of the starting post In the case of a
horse, and there are many, who can just
manage to stick out the distance, but
which could not beat a fat man at five
and one-half furlongs. their chances
are initiated against by breaking back
of the barrier. In favor of Mr.. CASH
dy, however, is his splendid record, east
and west, and which apparently he is
keeping well abreast of at Juarez, Mex
Somewhat Siberian.
Jumping, as it were, from the sub
lime to the ridiculous, at the local
track, is the overwhelming antipathy.
Curley Brown has engendered for him
self. His demands for subserviency and
the surrounding of himself with a mo-
dus operandi has we'll been character
lied, or likened to autocratic tyranny
of Siberia
Probably no one thing or condition
precipitated by Brown, met with so
much disfavor, as his attempt to muz-
zle the press-the censorship of all
press matter leaving the race track tel
egraph office. This naturally brought
down upon the track management the
universal condemnation of every nom
subsidized paper or sport writer.
To readers of this paper not cogni-
zant with the extremes practiced by
Brown, it will be hard to understand

Racing has never needed any apollo

methods at Jacksonville will keep the

whenever the Williams encourage ap-

exclaim: Here comes Dick Williams's
