Three-Minute
Journey
By TEMPLE MANNING.

IF you have read Lorna Doone''
you have heard of Exmoor. the
vast waste on tho borders OF
Somersetshire and Devon. Ex-
moor extends over q wide area. and
only patches OF 1t here and there
have been cultivated And 1t is on
their edges that the wild red deer of
England breed and thrive under pro-
lection, and the wild ponies scamper
about.
No matter what the weather. the
Exmoor pony takes care OF himself.
Though the rocks are typical Devon
shire crags. worn smooth by the
weather. and are intersected by
dangerous boggy places. heather and
bracken manage to grow and IT. ID
on these that the ponies thrive:
find even with the SHOWS OF winter.
or course, they then grow thin. but
when the tender shoots Of herbage
once more appear the ponies round
out with amazing Quickness.
Once a year Exmoor Is secured for
the pony product, and the little wild
steeds are driven into a huge corral
to be branded and sorted out for
sale. The round up Is always at
tended with much excitement. be-
cause the little horse of Exmoor Is a
wild. shy creature. But the Devon
shire farmers are as skilled as the
American cowboy in their own pc
culiar methods of handling the ami
mails.
On the last Thursday OF each Oc-
tober there Is held an auction sale
OF the ponies at tho little village of
hampton. To this quiet place buy
crs come from all England and even
from Wales. The village Is thronged
and the inn-keepers reap harvest.
but the village Is compelled to pre-
pare for the pony auction-they line
the streets with barriers to save the
fronts OF the houses and their win
dows from the flying, heels OF the
half-mad ponies that see streets for
the first time.
II you enjoy wild sport there
could be nothing more exciting than
a day at the hampton pony fair.
AS the little horses are led down the
streets to the auction block, some of
them are bound to get away from
their fellows. Then begins n wild
scra mble through the village streets.
If you care to help capture stray
ing pony. you arc welcome. But look
out for the flying hoofs-if one hits
you. you. will think that living
tornado has struck you.
But when the EHmoor pony IL
broken to harness he Is strong and
sturdy beast Of burden, indeed. This
is why the hampton pony fair still
draws its buyers from all of Britain.

Rebels Get All Their Runs
Off Indian in the Early
Innings.
[By Telegraph TO Tie Tribune ]

Pittsburgh, July 3t-Jim Blue Jacket,
who has pitched so well since his re-
cent return to the Brooklyn Tip Tops,
received his first setback here this
afternoon, the Pittsburgh Rebels win
ming by a score of 4 to 2.
The Indian, pitching well for three
innings, weakened in the next two
innings, and was taken out in the
fifth. Pittsburgh scored all It's runs off
Blue Jacket Joe Finneran took up the
work, and held the Rebels runless in
the remaining innings.
SANFORD Burk, formerly of the Brook
lyn Superb4s, started the game against
the Tip Tops. While he remained in
the box the visitors found trouble in
solving his crosstre offerings. The
heat affected Burk, and he was relieved
by Baron Knetzer. Brooklyn could only
gather five safetes, while, OF the eleven
made by Pittsburgh many were wasted.
The Rebel infield supported their pitch
ers well, while Kauff and Cooper, Smith
and Halt played sensational ball for the
Tip Tops.
