NEW YORK, Apr eff the influ-
! and other big New York sporting men
can prevent it, the Virginia legislature
next term will not make any laws adj
verse to horse racing. The session
which has just adjourned did not take
any action in the matter, so sportsmen
are taking advantage now and next
fall to get their forces together. One
reason why the Virginians are against
racing is because of the Objectionable
gambling element that has entered in
to it.
COulOn Has Future.
Regardless of what the future may
hold for Coulon his past performances
are recorded in the pages of pugilistic
history along with such immortals as
George Dixon, Cal Mccarthy, Terry
McGovery, Billy Rothweel and host
of other men who we're too great in
heart to stoop so low as to claim a title
when the real champion was physical
lily unable to defend his honors.
Notable Incidents.
The Mississippi legislature ADJOURN
ed to see Detroit play ball, but the
compliment is doubtful. The Illinois
house once adjourned when someone
offered to buy drink.
