knew why the Mexicans were so eager to
run the race at home. Our money was up
and there was no chance for 1t but to run
or fight, and after a consultation we
agreed to the former.
The news of the race had spread far
and wide and there were fully 1900 persons
on hand to see 1t, some Of the Mexican
sports coming on horseback many nun
dreds of miles to see 1t. These crowded
around the course and the horses were
to run between solid walls Of men and
horses, for every man mounted his pony
in order to see the contest the better.
Our jockey was famous for his quick
ness at the post and our big horse, who
had a sleepy way of walking to the start,
was chain lightning once he got there,
and he knew his part of the job so well
that nobody could beat him away at the
word even il his rider had been replaced
by a bundle of straw.
THE start was ask and answer n
after a few minutes preliminary sparring,
during which there was absolute silence
with every eye trained on the point where
the champions were m~aneuvering the
horses dropped into position and the race
was on. The Mexican aided by the in
clined path had an advantage for the
first 100 yards and his native rider was
plying the quirt he carried with all the
vigor he possessed in order to hold it.
Our big horse was tearing the ground
up at every mighty stride and his tail
was switching in a manner characteristic
to him. The MeXicans were shouting
themselves hoarse and you couldn't hear
yourself think. Our boy, leaning far over
his mounts shoulders in much the style
that Sims and Sloan rode here years after
ward, never touched the horse with the
whip. Spurs we had never used-cold-
blooded horses won't stand for them-and
when about fifty wards remained to be
covered the Mexican lead had been cut
down to a neck and shoulders. From
that out our champion had him and the
chestnut horses nose was at our horses
glrth when the judges were reached.
'lt looked like a fight at first. The
Mexlcans, beaten at their own game, were
red hot, but when they saw our little party
was determined they paid up with exceed
ing bad grace, and losing no time we hit
the trail for the north and that night
slept on Texas soil.
What became OF the horse? Oh, we
won every match we made with him, and
finally lost him in a railroad wreck near
Salt Lake City, Utah, some years later"
That brought up the story about the num-
Der Of good horses which had been killed
through being shipped as freight instead
Of by express, where they have every care
and reach their destination at the earliest
possible moment, instead of being bumped
around and often thrown down, when not
more seriously hurt.
You all remember that good horse

TICKET sCALPERs WATCHED
Plans to Guard Sale for Big Harvard
Yale Games.

BOSTON, Jan. ~15.-Suggestions looking
toward a solution of the problem of the
distribution of tickets for important foot
ball games at Harvard, especially for the
biennial contest with Yale, are made In n
report Of a special committee of the
Harvard club Of this city, which investi-
gated the methods employed at the recent
game.
The committees conclusions are that
there should be a reduction in the number
Of specially awarded seats; that tickets
for members OF the Harvard Athletic asso-
cIs alton should be abolished; that freshmen
and s~ophomores should be limited to one
ticket each, and that university officers
should be classed with graduates.
There were 5000 seats in the stadium
for the game Of November 20, 1903, of which
Yale took 5000. There was an unusual de-
mand for seats, running about $1,000, and
many complaints reached the management
after the game from those who claimed
to have been unable to obtain seats, but
who were apparently entitled to them.

against the Richmond State leaguers in the
historic city and meeting Richmond college
the following afternoon. On March &c and
rs games are scheduled with Georgetown
university at Washington.
The four games complete the warming
up and tryout season and the attempt to
beat the calendar. By way of contrast
Princeton plays a team from the far north,
Bowdoin, on March 80, at Princeton. Besides
the innovation Of a southern trip several
comparatively new Princeton games appear
on the list to take the places of the Navy,
Dartmouth, Syracuse. Lehigh and Virginia

East and West
Sign Contracts
Michigan and Syracuse Have Ar
ranged to Play Foot Ball for
Two Years.

NEW YORK, Jan. ia two-year on
tract for foot ball games has been signed
by the Michigan and Syracuse university
gridiron magnates. This makes the third
branch of sport between the two institu-
tons on a two-year contract basis. Michi-
gan will play the Orange in foot ball at
Syracuse on October 20, 1910, and the 1911
contest will be held in Ann Arbor.
The other contracts call for base ball
games and two dual track meets. the events
TO alternate between Syracuse ami Ann
Arbor.
When one remembers that Michigan's
contract with Pennsylvania has not yet
expired and that the Maize and Blue ath-
letes are to be found in eastern track
meets and pitted against eastern basket
ball teams, 1t appears as il the Wolverines
eastern invasion would almost carry them
out of middle western sports and so effec-
tually tie them up with contracts that a re-
turn to conference ranks would be impos-
sible, If desired.
The games under contract will make the
most interesting spots on the Orange foot
ball schedule and will afford with the
Pennsylvania Michigan and possibly Chi
cago-Cornell contests a good basis for inter-
sectional comparisons.
Moreover, Syracuse's rowing authorities
have also closed a contract. The crew ac-
cepted the invitation of the United States
naval academy to row an eight-oared race
on the Severn on May 81. The course will
be two miles in length and the race prob
ably will be rowed down stream.
This will be the third time that Syracuse
has rowed Annapolis, the other two races
having resulted in victories for the Orange
Last years race was marred by rough
weather, but the Orange oarsmen managed
to finish about two lengths ahead of the

but when he submits 1t Barney Dreyfuss
will pick 1t to pieces, It is said, and then
demand a schedule of 1854 games. In this
he will be backed by the Cincinnati, st.
Louis and Boston clubs.
The 16s-game schedule is Ebbet's pet
scheme. He sees in It a chance to add to
the Brooklyn clubs receipts. The man
who made the word infancy famous
practically admits that the Brooklyn fans
want bargain attractions in base ball. or
the patronage will fall off. He plans to
play double-headers on Saturdays and
Mondays or Fridays. when the attendances
are usually weak. But the other club
owners, at lesat four of them, do not agree
with the Brooklyn man.

HorSemen Pleased
With the Outlook
Many Entries for the Big Events
Make the Race Promoters
Smile.

NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-Of the many en-
co-uragements received by racing folk since
the close of last season, there has been
none that has given such great satisfaction
as the announcement of the entries at
hand for the various stakes of the Coney
Island and Brooklyn Jockey clubs and
the Brighton Beach Racing association to
be decided next summer. Last year horse
men were pleased to have nineteen en-
tries to the Brooklyn, twenty-five TO the
Suburban, with no Brigham handicap at
all. For the season to come, thirty-seven
-thoroughbreds are named for the Brook
lyn, thirty-three for the Suburban and
t~wenty-four for the Brighton. At the
same time the class of the probable con-
tenders is on a vastly higher plane.
Fitz Herbert, Maskette. King James, Az
Fiction, Sweep, Waldo and Olambala, great
names all. together with Ballot and Pris-
Gillian, brought home from England, are
among those named literally. For the
S~heepshead Bay meeting 800 nominations
are made for the eighteen stakes.
For the 2-year-old stake. the Grand Trial,
there are seventy-five names, as against
thirty-seven in 1909 for the Double Event,
sixty-eight as against forty-four, and SO
on.
The get of $50 brood mares are eligible for
the 1912 Futurity. These figures will all
be increased when the western and south
ern racing points are heard from.

Point, Tex, owned some years ago, don't
you?" broke in one of the listeners. IT
saw him run a mile over the old Crescent
City track at New Orleans In 1:S9 with his
weigh up, and If you fellows who remem-
Der the shape II was in those lays you will
know what that meant. s. .s.,s
Arnold was sixteen hands and an inch
high, was by Sir Dixon out of Dione, by
the French horse Mortimer that Mr.. Loril-
lard brought out from France. There was
no better bred or better looking horse than
this fellow, and Fuller knew It.
Before coming to New Orleans Arnold
had cleaned up pretty thoroughly around
Chicago, and they tell a good story on one
of our young New York millionaires who
was going into racing pretty strong at
that time, but who has since got cold feet
on the ponies and now accompanies his
wife to the suffragette meetings.
This young man, to quote John Mad
den, had 'papa's check book then and he
saw George Arnold win one of Jim How
ards big handicaps at Washington park.
Walking out into the paddock after the
race when the big horse was being cooled
off this young millionaire asked someone
to show him the owner of the horse.
"They pointed to a medium sized man
with a dropping blond mustache and a sky
piece like all those Texans who want to
go home again wear. Approaching Fuller,
who was chewing a stem Of timothy as he
watched the apple of his eye walk about
in the grass, the millionaire said:
Peg pardon; do you own this horse?'
Yes, sir was the reply.
Is he for sale?' was the next query.

stroked the stem of timothy.
"'Give you $4,000
AT this Fuller spat out the piece of
timothy, looked full at the New Yorker for
the first time and slowly remarked:
Mister, that horse comes next to my
wife and children; I've got as much land
at home as he could walk over in a week
and on 1t there are 10000 cattle and 5000
sheep; 1 repeat he is not for sale
Still. liking the horse the way he did, he
shipped him home by freight and the SPLEEN
did brute was killed. Fuller sued the
Texas & Pacific for $4,000 and there was a
red hot law suit threatened for some time.
A number of the officials at the New Or
leans races were asked to put a value. on
the horse and the suit was finally COM
promised upon the payment of $4,000.
George Arnold was worth every dollar
of that amount, even II he never raced
again, and you can bet Fuller. who Is stilI
racing, has given up shipping good horses
by freight, at least not unless they are well
insured"

LUNGHI CHANGES MIND OFTEN
May Continue to Train and May Enter
Italian Army.

NEW YORK. Jan. 15.-That Emilio
Lunghi, the great middle distance runner,
is a man of contradictions is evident from
the fact that Lunghi has written an Italian
friend in this city that he has no intention
Of joining the Italian army. but will con-
thu his studies In Genoa Lunghi has
an idea that he can smash the existing
worlds record for 400 metres and will train
from now till next March in preparation
for the attempt. After that Lunghi will
run handicaps to keep himself in trim until
the international games to be held in Turin.
Italy, early in 1911.
Lunghi inclosed clippings from the Genoa
papers containing interviews with himself
in which he prases American sportsmen in
the highest terms and says that he re-
CARDS Lawson Robertson, the Irish-Ameri-
can Athletic club coach, as the greatest
traine of athletes in the world today.
With all his praise OF America and ath-
letlcs over here Lunghi says nothing about
ever returning here.
