The Blue Grass League games on
Sunday are counter attraction al.
most too strong to be overcome by the
colored boys, as many negroes go to
the Broadway park. despite the fact
that they have been shown in many
ways that their patronage is anything
but desirable. This class Of negroes
claim that they don't get good run
for their money"-in other words,
that the colored boys play inferior
ball. This is only too true. and to
give this class of people no excuse
every effort should be made by the
local boys to improve their game.
There are several good books in
Spalding's athletic library which are
invaluable to teams like the local or
ganization. These books are on all
the cardinal points of the game, and
by the leading authorities and play
ers of the game in the country. Any
of these books can be obtained at Cal
laway's sporting goods house on Main
street for the small sum Of ten cents
cash. A hint to the wise should be
sufficient.

RACING.

A., Tuesday marked the closing of the
spring meeting at Churchill Downs at
Louisville. 1t was one of the most
successful meeting ever held there in
| every way, and, unlike most of the
latter day meetings, there was little
or no scandal whatever connected
with it. Barring some little rough
!! riding by few of the jockeys, there
was nothing to disturb the even tenor
of the races. as most all OF the horses
ran true to form and these that did
not, their handlers were able to salts
fly those in charge that II was through
no fault of theirs As usual the east
ein horses carried off the major por
ticn Of the stakes. Trainers Karrick
and Taylor were the most successful
of any Of the fasteners. Their sue
cess is not TO be wondered at, as both
have formidable stables. Trainer
Karrick has such stellar performers
as Fashion Plate, Spritei one OF the
best FLIES of the year,, Palanquin and
the crack two-year-old colt, Yankee
Nation, which many think capable OF
taking the measure of the great Haw-
thorne or Forward. Trainer Taylor
has Worth, the Derby winner: AZyi-
ade, Adams Express, stake winner,
and several others of almost equal
note. With horses of the calibcr of the
above-named, and with such riders as
Scbilling, Byrne, McCahey and others
it is next to impossible not to win
races.

The middleweight championship
seems as far from being settled now
as it did soon after the killing of Stan
ley Ketchell, the boss of that division.
The elimination battles of a few
months ago seemed, if anything, to
have made the championship muddle
more complicated, as the victors in the
bouts managed to 'get over" by such
small margins as to leave considera-
BILE doubt in the minds of the specta-
tors as to which one really was the
best fighter.

The scene has now shifted from
Louisville to fair Latonia, as it was
formerly called, but is now oftimes
spoken of under the caption of Death
Valley" However, be that as it may,
the present race meeting should and
doubtless will prove one of the best
ever held at this historic course. This
meeting would be famous if for only
one thing, and that is the meeting be-
tween Worth and The Manager. It
has been much mooted question as
to which was really entitled to the SUI.
premacy in the equine world. Each
has his host of followers who are will
ing to back their opinion with cash
money whenever track conditions per-
nit of a meeting between the two
rivals. For be it known The Mana
ger must have "pasteboard' track
before he can show up in his best
form. This has been proved by the
fact that whenever the going" has not
been good Major Mcdowell has lost
no time in scratching the big chestnut
son of Voter. On one occasion he
failed to do so, aud the result is well
known to all form students.
Worth, however, has no choice as to
the kind of track he goes over; ap-
parently he is just as much at home
on heavy track as fast one. His
derby victory was over heavy course
and he won impressively. Several days
ago he scored another victory over a
dry track against the best sprinters
at the Downs" The Latonia Derby,
June 8, will bring out these two rivals,
also several others which will be
worthy foemen for the above named
two, for instance the great FLY Sprite,
the Schorr crack Froglegs, and others
which should furnish a contest worth
going miles to see,
