Racing.

Jack Mitten, the famous PAGER, has
been sold to q. W. Welsch of New
York. The horse won ten races in
Indiana and Ohio and has record
of Pill IA.
The Penmar Racing Association has
decided to admit Winchester, Va,
TO it's circuit, which now includes
Winchester, Va; Frederick and Ha-
gerstown, Mr., York, Lancaster, Car
lisle and Hanover, in the state.
These officers were elected for the
ensuing year: X. F. d. Warheim,
Frederick, Md, president; c. ]. Dlone
of Hanover, vice president; H. c.
Heokert York, secretary and l'eas-
urer.
Directors of the Detroit Driving
Club have decided that they cannot
abide by the Grand Circuit rule linn
iting the amount of money won by
a horse.
The reason given was that the rule
might prevent the starting of the
best trotter in the Merchants and
Manufacturers $4,000 stake, or the
best PAGER in the $1,000 Chamber of
Commerce stake. When the stewards
met at Pittsburg they adopted a res"
olution whereby any trotter winning
a gross Of $4,000, or any PAGER win
ming $4,000 gross, shall not be eligi-
Bile to start in other early closing
events.

From the Buffalo Express.
Although Premier Borden, of the Do
minion, is not back from England yet
and has made no announcement as to
his imperial naval policy, 1t is apparent
that Canada is not going into any ar
rangement with the mother country with
its eyes shut. Mr.. Borden and several
of his colleagues went to England this
summer to talk this and other matters
over with the imperial authorities. Mr..
Foster, of .he Borden cabinet, Is back
and he says that Canada is ready to do
whatever is necessary in the way of de-
tense to meet an emergency without con-
ditions OF any kind. but as TO a perma-
nent policy of cooperation between the
two countries Canada will demand some
voice.
AS far as that goes it Is to be supposed
that il is official. Canada win help a
little, just how much does not appear,
nor what direction that aid will take.
Still IL will help. But 1t refuses to COM
init itself to the future. It apparently
declines to be drawn into any imperial
obligations without having something to
say about imperial matters. Therefore It
is holding back.

Quinn, Charles Jansen, Sammy Brown
Mabelle Morgan, Minnie Lee, Edna
Green, and as newcomers Keller anc
