BILLINGS HERE
soon WITH UHLAA
FAMOUS TROTTER TO BE SEEN
ON DRIVEWAYS AROUND
RICHMOND.

Richmond has gained much by the
ACQUISITION of e. *. @. Billings. the
millionaire horseman. His stock is
probably the greatest owned by any
one man.
THAN (:5s), holder of the worlds
record, and the only trotter that has
beaten 2:0t without the aid of wind
shield Is being used by Billings as
saddle horse. Uhlan set his mark at
Lexington, KY, where he trotted
mile with running mate in l % l-2.
Mr.. Billings prefers fast trotting
horses for his morning rides and has
half dozen flyers with records Of
2:10 or better for saddle work. Among
those he has purchased for this pur-
pose are Charley Mitchell (2:04 l-4.
Lewis Forrest (2:06 Id, Prince of
Orange (2:0s 1-2). w. J. Lewis t2:os
s-4), Tempus Fugit (2:o7 t4), Flem-
ing Boy (2.o7 1-2), Charley Mac
(2:07 3-4). and Turley (2;07 3-4).
IrhIan is big. strong. handsome
black selding, with riding shoulders
strong back, plenty of hook action
and a disposition which should make
him almost a model horse for the sad
die.
Many champion trotters. from Lady
Suffolk (2:2s f-2) to Dexter CAT
Ia; Barus (2:13 1-4), Maud 8. t2:0s
3-4), and Sunol Cos l-4), have been
withdrawn from the turf TO drive on
the road, but the present champion
will be the first record holder retired
for saddle purposes,
Uhlan is nine years old He has
been In training since he was four,
and has beaten the bes thorses Of the
day and the best time on record at
nearly all ways of going except under
saddle. He has not been ridden on tho
track. but 1T is surrised that IL Mr..
Billings converts him into a saddle
horse he may some day try for the
record at that way Of going. His rec
ord TO sulky is 1853; to wagon, 200;
to pole with Lewis Forrest, 2:o5 Ia:
with running mate, 1854 Ia, and TO
sulky on a half-mile track, 2:o2 S-4).
1t Is quite likely that Mr.. Billings
on Uhlan will be seen shortly on the
roads around Richmond. as his string
/ is being prepared to ship here under
the direction of Doc" Tanner, his
trainer. who has Just moved from
Cleveland to Curtis Neck farm, on the
! James.

RESTING PLACES

Miss Grayce Scott has volunteered
her services TO those interested in
the movement for resting and retiring
places for girls and women who are
employed during the day, and who
have no places Of retirement during
lunch hour
The Y. W. c. A. has established two
such places for the use of girls who
are employed and for shoppers as Well.
Miss Scott will, later I'm her engage
ment at the Bijou, give special mat
inee performance to aid the movement
Her idea liz a unique one.
MY plan is 10 give a benefit mat
inee during the lunch hour" said
Miss Scott. land give the, girls and
shoppers the opportunity of eating
their lunch while enjoying the show.
The ushers may be coaxed to serve
tea or milk at the same time, and we
could have a happy little time, with
the girls losing no time from their
business.
II know what ii is to be stranded
during the. day. A nice quiet place
lis one of the happiest things TO think
on Many shoppers get caught during
lunch hour. with not half OF their
shopping done. If they had oonven-
lent places 10 go, where they could
eat and read and rest for while,
they would be refreshed. and would
not return home played out
This movement on the part of the
ladies' of the Y. w. C. A. is most com
mendabfe, and should be encouraged
by ell citizens"
