by Mr. Tommy Dedge in his open letter TO you Of

agreed to every Unreasonable Enactment" I have

The facts are that Dedge rejected my challenge
to race on any track. either for the sport Of the
event for any reasonable amount. These are the
unreasonable e1actments to which he refers-l Mr.

Won he now comes back with a proposition to
enter a rad race for q pUrse Of 500.
II Is needless 10 say that the Tlace for race Is

nerve and desires 20 avoid the danger of curves
and ether tess OF good riding which are brought
ont a track, BY making a cOunter.p rorosition.
and in the ncps Of getting out OF contest entirely
he sets the sIske at figure that he believes will

PASSED UP RABBIT FOR FOX.
Beagles Took Up New scent and
Caught Mr.. Reynard.

Roseland. n. J., Oct. 2S-At the field
trials of the New Jersey Beagle Club
Yesterday afternoon a fox crossed the
trail of a pair of hounds while the dogs
were chasing a rabbit. The hounds at
once switched their course and bounded
after the little red fox. =
The members OF the club saw the fox
and released their beagles. In all forty
six hounds made up the pack which set
out to catch the fox. Then those who
had automobiles or bicycles and some on
foot tried to follow the dogs. The chase
began at 2:3O and ended at 4:40 p. m.
The distance from Roseland in Essex
County to Riverside in Morris County,
where the chase ended. is only ten miles,
but the actual distance covered by the
dogs and those who tried TO follow was
many miles more.
There was nothing left of the little fox
when followers OF the pack located the
end of the chase. Even the brush was
lost. Charmion Cora, owned by the
Hillside Kennels, is said to have caught
the fox

CORNELL CELEBRATES
ITS CREW VICTORIES
Entire Student Body. Accompanied
by Bands and Red Fire. Parades
Ithaca Streets.

Ithaca, n. Y, Oct. 2s-One OF the
greatest crew celebrations in the history
Of college rowing was held here last
night, when the entire student body OF
Cornell paraded the principal streets ac-
eompanied by bands and burning red
fire The march ended in one of the big
halls, where a number OF speeches were
made. lauding the crews and euIogizing
Coach Charles f. Courtney. The Cor
nelians won the varsity and Junior var
sity races at the intercollegiate Regatta
at Poughkeepsfe in June and were sec
ond to Syracuse in the freshman race
The praise of the crews and Of Mr.
Courtney were fully deserved: in fact,
1t would be hard matter to overdo IL.
Since the inception OF the annual
Poughkeepsie regatta in 1885. Cornell has
won fifteen OF the twenty-three varsity
four-mile eight-oared races which have
been rowed. (This includes the races
with Yale and Harvard 10 1897 and 1888.
This would be a remarkable attainment
even in a series of dual meets such as
the fale-Harvard and the Oxford-Cam-
bridge affairs, but in this case IL has
been accomplished when there have been
from three to seven starters each year.
In other words, the figures are Cornell,
10; all others. s: almost double! Further
more. on five occasions have the Cornell
men swept the river" winning all three
races. Moreover. the Ithacans hold all
the records,

MORAN RECEIVED BONUS.
PhiIIIes' Manager Given Money for
Finishing Third.

Philadelphia. Pa, Oct. 2S.-"Pat" Moran
did receive a bonus from the Philadelphia
National League club. but he received
the bonus for bringing the Phillies home
in third place or better. not for winning
the pennant.
This telegram to the Bulletin. from
Manager Moran. speaks for itself:
Expect TO see Mr.. Baker soon and
talk over terms as to contract for next
year. / did not receive any extra money
for winning the pennant. but did receive
extra money, as was in my contract, for
finishing third"
Receiving the bonus for finishing third
and not first is no doubt the thing that
caused the report to spread that Moran
had not been given any bonus or any
present by the Phillies for his efforts in
bringing the Phillies home first in the
National League race.
