fares.
Theodore Roosevelt writes, Frat
strikes me. as a first-class suggestion.
and will gladly back it up"

RUSSIA'S
NATIONAL
SPORT

NEW YORK,-C. K. G.. Billings, the
well known horseman. returned re-
Gently from a trip to Russia, where
he had been introducing the American
trotting horse.
Mr.. Billings took a string of seven
trotters with him. His horses raced at
several of the national meets and took
prizes at the Moscow horse show Z.
Horse racing is the great national
sport in Rus sia," said Mr.. Billings.
"They have no football. or baseball,
OF any other national athletic sport
I'll their sporting spirit centers on
the horse" - :
Mr.. Billings found the Russians
very sportsnnanlike and accustomed
to place big bets on their fayorites.
: While at Moscow. where he had
been invited to attend the national
horse show by Count Telletine, Mr..
Billings was driven by the count per-
scnally to the banquet in a drosky
drawn by three superb Orion horses.
After the banquet the count asked
his guest If he admired the horses,
They are magnificent" replied Mr..
Billings.
"Will you tie pleased to accept
them?" asked his host.
Mr.. Billings demurred. but feeling
that he would otherwise offend the
count, accepted the gift.
Mr.. Billings will have the three
horses brought to America soon. tle
also purchased the Orloff stud, which
he will cross with his American trot.
ting stock. He expects splendid re-
suits. as the Orloffs are very swift.

At meeting of the finance COM
mittee of the club the other day an

The new barge is expected from the

it will be the most up-to-date barge in

GOLFERS
PLANNING AN
INVASION

CHICAGO, nl-Golfers the country
over are being worked up into a state
almost bordering on excitement at the
prospect of a British team competing
this year for the Olympic Cup. Harold
Fl Hilton has sent j. D. Cady, the
president of the Western Golf Asso-
citation to take part in this competi,
ton, and in view of this it is being
urged In Chicago golfing circles that
the greatest care should be given Ia
the selection of the Western team.
A visit from a British quartet
might stimulate all round interest in
"open to the world" is an event
which never arouses much enthusiasm
along the Atlantic seaboard. In con-
sequence of the apathy the tourna-
ment has become dull. 3D..
With, say, Jerome Trayers, Oswald

rick Herreshoff sent West to repre-
sent the metropolitan association and
Hilton and his merry men from over
the seas the event would assume a
very different aspect. The Olympic
tournament has been dated for. this

ceding the opening of play for the ma

Robert Harris, who has been named

American amateur championship of
Wheaton, Ill, during the week of Sep

1911, and 1912. Among his match play
achievements he numbers the Scot
fish, and Northern championships
while he was runner up for the Brit
ish amateur title in 1907. At medal
play he has been singularly success
full. In 1905 he won the st. Georges

Ferguson.

The record of H. E. Taylor, who is
also mentioned as a probable compan-
ion of Hilton, is not such formidable
one in medal tournaments. He, how
ever, has done many notable things
and has several course records to HIS
credit. In the amateur championship
