RELIABLE SPORTING NEWS.

IL is curious and significant fact that
men who can be satisfied with distorted
and unreliable news in other departments

sporting news. Those interested 10 the
sporting events of the world long ago
discovered that The Chicago Record
Herald is a reliable authority 10 this
field, printing all the news, day by day,
year in aud year out, with steady accu-
racy and terse completeness unsurpassed
anywhere. 1t has a large staff of editors
and reporters, who devote all their time
and skill to this department. alone. The
Sunday Record Herald has a separate
sporting supplement OF four full pages
newspaper Of itself--in which the ath-
letic events OF the whole cour try, re-
ported by telegraph to the last moment
OF going to press, are presented with
numerous illustrations. All that is of
interest 10 baseball, football, racing, ath-
letics, huntiug, automobiling, yachting,
golf tennis. boxing, and other sports can
always be found 10 reliable form 10 The
Record Herald. Every man on the
sporting staff is 40 expert, trained to see
straight and write the truth without
bias. This is the good and sufficient
reason why The Record Herald is the
favorite among the true lovers OF sport

PEGASUS IN MODERN GUISE.
Soaring Free in Air, He Draws a
Broadway Crowd That-Guys.
On the road 70 OLD Broadway
Where the flying horses play

Thus humued a man yesterday al the
corner of Broadway and SD street, as he
gazed absorbed, at g large black horse
which had just hurdled four-foot iron
rail fence opposite No. 206 West SD street.
Attached to the horses harness was A
black delivery wagon. the horse being sus-
pended in air on one side of the fence.
while the wagon was clear of the ground
on the other
AS the lone man watched and sympa-
thized the sight attracted others, until
the roadway was blocked, people were
hanging out of windows on the two sides
of the street, and suggestions for help
we're flying through the air as thick as
mosquitoes at a seaside resort.
The driver, Jack Dimond. was bent
double under the wagon, trying TO lift
horse and cart into the street Somebody
finally telephoned to the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and a
horse ambulance answered. Then the up
lift work began in earnest.
From a second story window a block and
tackle was rugged up, an END of a rope
adjusted about the horses middle and.
with much shouting and tuggtng, the ami
mai and his burden were lifted clear OF
the fence and deposited In the street.

AsToR DIVORCE DECREE WAITS.
Wife's Failure to Ask for It Revives
Reconciliation Rumor

II was expected that the application OF
the attorneys for Mrs. Ava Astor for a fnaI
decree of divorce from her husband. Colo
mel John Jacob Astor, would come UP
Yesterday before Supreme Court Justice
Mills. in Special Term. at White Plains. but
none of the attorneys appeared. The time
limit within which Mrs. Astor may apply
for the final judgment following the
granting of the interlocutory decree three
months ago expires on the last day of
this month Judge Mills, when asked II
he rad heard from the attorneys for Mrs.
Astor, said that none of them had been
before him and that he had not received
any word when they would apply TO him
for the decree.
The failure 10 secure the final judgment
leads many TO believe that there may yet
