OLD KOENIG MAKES
NEW TRACK RECORD
Beats High Glass Field in
Fleetwing and Covers Short
Six FurlOngs in 1907 as.

The extreme heat yesterday did not
affect the speed OF the thoroughbreds
racing at Empire City track. Most of
them ran faster than ever before and
as n result two track records were
smashed. The Beverwyck Stables Ave
year-old bay horse Old Koenig clipped
a fifth Of second from the short six
furlong course record and J. S. Tyree's
juvenile gelding Sea Pirate lowered the
five and half furlong mark Fifth Of
n second
Old Koenig's new figures were hung
up in the Fleetwing Handicap. He de-
feated a quintet OF the best sprinters
In the country In remarkably easy FASH
Ion and travelled the distance In
1907 As. Among those Old Koenig left
behind him were Flags. Jack Hare, Jr..
and Papp.
The old horse, which has won several
rich stakes this year. was never In bet
ter condition than when he went to the
post yesterday. AS Mars Cassidy sprung
the barrier Buddy" Ensor shot him to
the front. Once In command Old Koenig
sped along under a stout pull and made
his opponents dizzy tying to catch him.
Entering the home stretch he was three
his best to hold him In check he re-
tanned this lead until after he passed
the judges.
No Blinkers on Flags.
Flags. which went to the post without
the blinkers he wore in his previous
races. acted badly at the post and got
away badly. Once In his stride he dis
played n lot Of speed and before the first
furlong had been covered was in sec
ond place. but he could not get close to
Old Koenig and was compelled to ac-
cept second honors.
Jack Hare. Jr, the three-year-old colt
which carried the colors of Col. Apple
gate to an easy victory In the Empire
City Derby on Saturday, was never in
the hunt and finished a bad third George
w. Lofts Papp, which won the Juvenile
crown last year. also was unable to fol-
low the terrific pace set by Old Koeng
and was soundly beaten.
Sea Pirates record breaking perform
ance came in the first race. This little
bay son Of Sea King and Toots won by
only three parts OF a length. but he was
much the best in tho race. He was In
n pocket in the run around the bend and
did not receive the best kind of a ride
from Charley Fairbrother, but when he
got clear sailing in the stretch Sea Pr
rate came with a rush and was going
away from his opponents at the end.
Richard Carman's The Boy finished sec
ond and the Kentucky Stables Chasseur
was third.

HARRY LEVISON WRITES
FROM SUNNY FRANCE

Vt WAS aluCN.
Now there is yet one thing, and in
my estimation it is the most import
ant, WHICH | failed to mention. Viz:
the two meals served us, ont the eve
ming before Yom Kippur, the other
the evening after. These meals were
arranged by representatives of thc
Jewish Welfare Board, and for whicn
l will ever be indebted to them. OF
course, | realize that the folks back
home really paid for them, but at the
same time they must be given credit
for their share.
fhus were these holidays passed
Long to be remembered In later
years, after many others have rolled
around, | can refer to this year of
1918 as being one during which many
events not dreamed of the year before
were crowded into my young life.
France, the country that is on the
llps OF every man, woman and chill |
today. France, the country on whose
soil today is being waged the greatest
battle for liberty and freedom the
world has ever witnessed. But the
SACRIFICES have not been in vain. At
last she is emerging victorious. After
four long years of struggling apains,
a mcrciless foe, she is reaping her iuss
reward. The tiger is at bay At last
the enemy pleads for peace. She will
get IT all right, but not before we are
satisfied. She will pay for all the
misery and destruction wrought upon
peace loving world. Our noble pres
ident demands that certain conccs-
sl0ns must be made before even the
thought of discussion can begin. All
honor to the stand he has taken. We
want this war over with, but not be-
fore it is over with right. We are will
ing to let Mr.. Wilson give us peace.
Received long letter from Ben TO-
day Surprised to learn that hc IS
now cooking. Thought sure he would
land good clerical position. Oh, we'll,
we cant all be the same thing YOU
know. There must be cooks as well as
others. Good cooks usually work up to
be Mess Scrgeants. Hope Ben is for
tunatc in this respect.
Machy, | am sorry go hear that YOU
are working so hard. But stick to it,
old boy! 1t won't be forever. One of
these days you can take a prolonged
rest. When | get back I am going to
make it my business to see that YOU
get away from the store and stay
away until you satisfy all concerned
that your weary body has been re-
llevcd of it's heavy buredn Of fatigue.
Getting rather authoritative, don't
you think? Well, / mean it! How do
you like those apples?
Must close now. Write me as often
as you can. Remember that letter
from you is looked forward to with
more pleasure than my meals.
