J. W. Gyies, the Paterson horse
man, is surely a '1ive one" Last
week he bought upward of twenty
head of trotters and PAGERS at the
Garden and shipped them to New
Haven.
The whole show will be offered at
auction at B. F. Cannon's stable to-
day. The gray pacing gelding Pete,
1904, was not included in this ship
ment, as he has been turned over to
Florey Davis, the Hohokus trainer,
who will race him next year.
The bay pacing stallion, Hill Direct,
2:17&, owned by Sam Resi-. of this
city. was not sold in the Garden last
week. He went through the sale, but
his owner bid him in and will winter
him and try to get him to the
races another season With very lit
tie work he paced in 2:20 this year,
and with a whole seasons training
should be able to win in his class.
One of the handsomest weanlings
hereabouts is a chestnut stud colt
with a fiaxen main and tail, owned
by Frank Shepard, of Nutley. This

turity make a useful race horse.

SAYS N. Y. LEGISLATURE
SHOULD STOP CHILD LABOR
Lieut. Gov. Conway Scores
Conditions.

ALBANY, n. ", Dec. TIT is up
to the Legislature to place on our
statute books laws which will reach
workers employed in homes as well
as those who toll in factories" said
Lieutenant Governor Conway last
night, commenting on the evidence
brought out by the State Factory In
vestigation Commission.
TT has been shown that some of
this home work is done amid squalid
surroundings. Much of It is per-
formed in homes where there are suf-
ferers from contagious diseases, and
much Of it Is placed on sale IN the
stores of the country, exposing pur-
chasers, into whose homes they go,
as well as other people who come In
contact with them, to peril. an0 aid
ing in disseminating diseases.
aside from this is the question of
the preservation of the health of
women and children by protecting
them from overwork. 1t is cruelty
of the worst sor to force children yet
in their infancy to become wage
earners."

fouls because Captain Mulroy. of the

c.sion. He then ordered the captain
from the game, which he refused to
do. Both teams then left the floor.
