IN the arithmetic of life ability
L plus opportunity equals success.
Either without the other is but a
line of zeros.
Ability may be likened TO the
germ which is capable of producing
a dwarf or a giant tree. The result
of its planting is dependent as much
upon the soil, and the opportunity
which it has, as upon the inherent
or natural composition OF the germ
or seed itself.
The little successes of life may
be likened to the seed which is sown
or scattered and raked into the soil
The great accomplishers are the re-
suit OF deeply planted seed, which
grows in a solid foundation, one
strong enough to support a prod
uct which endures.
Although opportunity is more def
mite than luck, and is apparently
governed by more distinguishable
laws, it cannot always be corralled
and is at times elusive.
1t is an undeniable fact that equal
opportunity does not present itself
with apparent fairness; but it is also
as positive a fact that opportunity
is likely to come to those who seek
it and as likely to avoid those who
make no effort to meet it or to pre-
pare themselves to entertain it when
it does come.
Marked ability cannot be acquired.
You have it or you do not have it.
If you haven't it, it is impossible for
you to obtain it; but no one is
wholly without some capacity.
Ability, great or small, is yours.
1t came to you at birth. 1t repre-
sents you. 1t is, then, a question of
what you will do with it. Will you
plant it among the rocks or on sandy

Stray Items
of Sport

All true admirers Of real merit viii be
delighted to learn that Champion Johnny
couIon is rapidly regaining his health
and will soon be seen in action again.
1t is unfortunate that when great box
er. such as Coulon has proven himself
TO be. asks for time in which to regain
his health before being compelled to de-
fend his title he should be maligned by
sport writers, who either know nothing
of his wonderful record. or roast him
through malice. There has been a host
of wolves camping on his trail. building
their fiimsy regulations through chal-
lenges to him, not one of whom could
hit him with a handful Of birdshot IL he
was in the bottom Of a barrel. when he
was the real Coulon. Johnny was
trained, managed, and backed by his
father; they were inseparable pals, but
the grim reaper claimed the elder Cou-
lon and the boy has never recovered
from the shock.
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 Nc
Govern. Billy Rothwell. and a host of
other men who were too great in heart
and brain to stoop SO low as to claim
a title when the real champion was
physically unable to defend his honors
The "wisenheimers" are all having
their little smile at the pretensions of
Frank Moran. who Is matched to fight
Jack johnson in France. / want to go
on record as one who believes Moran will
whip johnson, for the following reasons:
Moran Is a better man than Choyinski
was when he knocked out johnson: he
is a better man than was Marvin Hart
when he whipped Johnson: he is a better
man than was Philadelphia Jack O'Brien
when he whipped johnson at Philadel
phia: he is a better man than was
Stanley Ketchel when he knocked John
son crazy with the only solid punch
which he landed. johnson is yellow
through and through: he cannot stand
punishment, and he is not as good now
as he was a few years ago; even II he
was, Moran would whip him.
The wiseacres laughed the same old
laugh at Corbett when he challenged
Sullivan; at Jeffries when he matched
with Fitzsimmons. The public is usually
wrong in its estimate of the abilities of
newcomer. for 1t believes in always
backing the champion. johnson was
ridiculed when he matched with Jeffries,
and so it goes. After johnson receives
his beating from Moran, the public will
commence to realize that his reputation
was built through defeating fakirs, little
men, and physical wrecks. He has never
yet defeated decisively a real fighter.

In order to survive, certain regulations
and reforms are needed In the conduct
of the sport of horse-rscing. Take the
selling events, for instance. which were
originally established for racing men In
moderate circumstances, as q means OF
either disposing of. or acquiring horses.
at a fair price, but instead OF proving a
benefit to the sport, many OF Its Ills are
traceable direct to this very system, q
history of which would require columns
to chronicle even the index.
In selling races which are supposed
To be made for horses which are worth
anywhere from $500 to $500, the handi-
capper tries to burden each animal with
weight SO as to equalize their chances
for winning. which is right and proper.
hut when horses worth from $500 to 81
600 are entered against the real selling
Mater. the thing becomes q farce. These
horses are entered in cheap races. ana
when the checks are down" they win,
after which they are put through the
farce of being offered for sale 70 the
highest bidder, as follows: "ki-YL the
winner of this race entered to be sold
for H.Ooo, Is there any advance over
81 ooe? once, twice, three times and
sold to the owner"
The owner usually happens to be NIL
,,onaire and N there is a bid offered. As
ia often the case, the man VINO does tne
bidding is doomed. as every horse which
n. starts thereafter will be run up 10
the amount OF the purse. half OF wnicn
goes to the racing association. In wnicn
the owner of "KiYP' may also own the
controlling interest
What In known to followers OF the turn
as .'seIling wars are encouraged oy
operators Of racing plants for the above
reason. Such practices naturally disgust
the racing man OF moderate means. ana
instead OF finding pleasure in the sport.
II Is TO him a source of constant worry,
and when he leaves the turf he becomes
its bitterest enemy, for which he cannot
be blamed.
II was announced some time ago that
there would be no stake races during
the meeting at Jamestown, which has
caused devotees of the turf to wonder
why such a horse as Nightstick was sent
there. Nightstick would bring at least
$4,000 IL put up at auction. Surely ne
will not be entered in selling race.
While the Virginia legislature ad-
journed without having enacted any
laws adverse to racing in that State,
private information has reached me to
the effect that II is not beyond the
range OF possibility that the promoters
will experience considerable difficulty In
carrying out their program. for the rea-
son that the laws which are now on the
statute books are sufficient to prohibit
racing. The old political organization in
that section Of Tidewater Virginia was

At the last annual convention of the
American Railway Master Mechanics
association Mr.. ]. 8. Bell read a paper
on the subject Of three-cylinder loco
motives, In which he gave particulars
regarding three of this type which
have been giving good service. The
three cylinders are placed on the same
horizontal plane, one between the
frame and other two exterior to the
frame. They have the same diameter.
18h inches, and each has its own pis-
ton valve. They have been engaged
for several years In fast passenger SER
vice, where they have been doing very
satisfactory work. Their principal ad-
yantages are that they secure a uni
form turning moment, the cranks be-
ing placed at 120 degrees; they exert
greater tractive power, and they call
for lower factor Of adhesion than
two-cylinder engines. They are easy
on rails and bridges; afford opportun-
ity for better balancing, and can be

MAKES CoALlNG EASY MATTER

In Space Of Only . Few

The coaling Of locomotives at large
terminals. where q great many engines
are dispatched, requires tho handling
OF large amount OF coal The mod
ern engine carries is tons-30. 900
pounds.
In the early days this coal was shov-
eled direct from cars. carried into en-
g1nes BY hand In small two-bushel
boxes, or taken direct from mines ad-
Joining the main line. but since the
nearby coal deposits have been
worked out and the mines have been
located on spur tracks away from the
main line. coal chutes designed to de-
liver coal In from one to ten ton lots
on the engine tender have been erect
ed at convenient places, usually about
fifty miles apart
Freight trains require coal about
every fifty miles, while passenger
trains usually run 100 miles more with
out taking coal. In renewing the old
coaling plants or adapting them to
double track, the Wabash railroad is
erecting modern steel structures hav-
Ing 800 tons storage, and 30 arranged
as to deliver coal on either the main
tracks or passing tracks, or all. at the
same time. The coal Is dumped from
self-clearing cars into a concrete pit.
where 1t runs by gravity into an ele-
vator having ton buckets, which are
hoisted by electricity. The whole az
rangement makes a resourceful and
economical coaling plant, as an engine
can take ten tons Of coal in as many
seconds, thus insuring the minimum
stoppages and avoidieg delay to trains.
