movements. and by the time Siletz had

RACE COURSE ONLY
Z WAY TO TELL HORSES

J. The race-course furnishes the only
means by which the speed, sounduess,
stamina and courage Of horses may be
tested and the blood which carries
these qualities perpetuated. In peace
it does not seem so very important that
these tests should be made, though
they have given the British rider and
the American driver a horse which sur
passes all others in ability to get there
and back. But in times of war the
value of the tests which search out and
diffuse the blood Of goers and stayers Is
clearly apparent. Sheridan's ride could
not have been made on a cold. blooded
horse, and more than one critical fight
has depended on the equine blood that
was in it. The day of the horse Is
usefulness in war has not passed, as the
events of the present year show. When
the time of trial comes the blood Of
the horse viii count, and II may count
much more than we can now realize.
The abuses Of racing all good men de-
plore, but these need not so narrow
our vision that we fail TO see its pos.
sible benefits in the Improvement Of
horses. ...- y. En

Miyake had little trouble 4 the

went 70 the Japanese star in four min

Kanae grew wise after the first fall,
and stayed away from the dreadful
neck hold. The jiu-jitsu wrestler had
much difficulty In getting the next fall,
aud twenty-five minutes elapsed before
he was able to make the Hawaiian
give up, by using an arm hold. :
This style Of wrestling Is very DIFF

and the holds and bars used by the
