TEMPORARY SUCCESS
COUNTS IN RACING

"It is questionable whether there is
any business or sport in which even
temporary success counts for SO much
as racing, says the Sydney Referee.
Any trainer who turns our three or
four winners IN quick succession can fill
his stables to overflowing, men who
had SCARCELY given him thought pre-.
viously being anxious TO place horses
with bin; and most owners and train.

''It is the same with betting, and
when some punter is having his run
Of luck his 3cleverness' is loudly voiced.
However, as quickly as many come
into note, SO they 90 out, in connection
with racing. The jockey who is pro

INSIDE BASE BALL. y
An Instance of the Kind That Rarely
Finds It's Way Into Print.

.Inside base BALI is hard subject to
explain. and the magazines which have

far away as they ever were. One base
hall nlayer has been heard to remark
that those feature writer's know as much
about the game as a hen does of Latin.
rs the fellow with the good personality
who knows how to run men. The former
White SoX manager, Fielder Jones. told a
little story at the National Association
meeting in Milwaukee recently which
shows that inside base ball does not all
appear in print. Here is the story:
1--WE were playing the fifth game with
the Cubs for the worlds title in 1906.

couldn't see. In four games he made but
one hit. Just before one of the games

Scared! Scared. am I? Why, you
big stiff I'll beat your head off In the
clubhouse after the game.
"If you aren't scared, you boob, spit,
I came back at him.
Talk about being mad. 1zZy was

and then I'll apologize

earded among the most brilliant ever

strange to stay, great dag as he unques-
,ionably was, il was the only first he
ever won. Aside from this great perform

might have added that a better lot never
would start. for among them were Gus
Bondhu. Bob Gates. Trinkets Bang. Belle
Of Piedmont. Gaths Mark, Gladstone's
Boy. American Dan, handspring and
other good ones. OF Roderigo's per-
torrance Mohawk wrote: 'Roderigo
