Archibald and Schilling, the
Veterans, Each Win a
Race.

1t was the jockeys who were furnish
ing the major part of the entertain
ment at the race track Friday. Schilling,
Archibald, Garner and Small were rid
ing like demons Friday. and the two
veteran boys who are at the track
fought II out in two OF the six races,
each winning a race.
They met first in the third race when
Archibald took the honors from his RI
val. Schilling, on Colonel Bob. Schilling
was on Goldfinn and the chances look
ed even at the post. but Archibald out
rode the Schilling boy in this race and
! nosed his mount into first position.
Garner, the wee kiddie of the track,
was on Enfield and rode his usual good
race, but he was up against experience
and had to surrender to the inevitable.
Small, another OF the top line boys at
the track, rode a good race on Execute,
the four horses finishing in that order.
Schilling and Archibald clashed again
in the sixth race when Schilling pa
raded on Himalaya and Archibald on
.Buna. Schilling reversed the running
on his rival in this race, although it
was conceded that his horse was bit
the better one of the two.

money be turned over to the athletic
officer each year TO be spent upon the

The machine is automatic in action,

the blow. A pointer IS moved over a

and the mechanism Is started.
With perfect regularity the victims

handle of the whip being moved by n
screw device after each stroke so that
the lash does not fall on the same spot
throughout the punishment.
Each blow is of uniform severity.

According to the Investigations OF n

conductors baton belongs To Lully, the
composer, who eventually had cause to
regret his invention. Before he adopt
ed the baton conductors were in the
habit Of pounding ON the floor with
their feet or cIapping their hands to
mark the time. Lully found il weari-
some TO keep his foot constantly In mo

down the pole With such force dhat it
struck his foot and made a deep
