With Heir Reaper

KALAMAZOO, Mich, July 16.-"Pop"
Geers, driving Heir Reaper, won the
$4,000 Paper Mills Purse for 2:O6
trotters at the Grand Circuit meeting
at Recreation Park this afternoon. 1t
was a brilliant contest, alive with
thrilling finishes and hard fought from
the wire.
Royal Mack won the first heat in a
sharp brush with The Toddler and
Prince Loree> After that Geers swept
to the front and fought every inch of
the road for victory. In the third
neat Geers's horse and Royal Mack,
The Toddler and Prince Loree were so
closely punched that the result was
in doubt until the judges announced
the winner.
Only two horses started in the free
for-all pace, in which Single G. won
each of the two heats by short head.
Murphy drove Directum J. against him.
Murphy won the three-year- trot
easily with Brusiloff, while the 2:11
trot, with thirteen in the field, was
won by Echo Direct.
Starter Merrill announced to-day
that the four miles trotted by Peter
Billiken and Winnemota in the 2:12

the long suffering public handed the
oral layers of odds at Empire City yes
terday afternoon. Favorites galloped
home in front in each of the six heats,
and every one of the half dozen carried
kings ransom through the muddy
going.
There never was such a woebegone
collection of sports as the sad-faced
"bookies' presented when it was all
over. They looked fit subjects for the
death house, and their sadness was in
tensified by contrast with the smile
wreathed features of the general boi
polloi.
Harry Payne Whtneys Panoply,
which won the Demoiselle Stakes of
$4,000. the feature event Of the card,
was perhaps the most weakly supported
of all the half dozen winning favorites.
This was because of the fact that
panoply was such a strikingly good
thing. The Whitney filly opened at l
to 3. but the layers had to raise to /
to before they could command the
least attention. Even then none but
the dyed-in-the-wool form players
cared to wager very heavily.
The fact that three choices had al
ready landed, and that Lucullite,
which appeared even a better thing.
had been knocked down the day before
made the superstitious go cunning for
something to play on the limb at more
liberal odds. They wouldn't play
against Panoply, but most of them took
fier on Luke's Pet a place. Some
few summoned courage to play Germa
straight.
Though the Whitney filly won under
the heavy impost of 125 pounds

and sixteen each to Indiscretion and
Germa-she realized she had been to
the races before she got her nose un-
der the wire. The veteran Willie
Knapp had to ride ou. Panoply through
the final furlong to hold his advantage
safe The Peter Pan flly showed a
tendency to hang toward the end.
Germa and Panoply raced we'll to-

Club to-day. when, in addition to win
ming the open tournament with d total
of 2S5, the Briton reeled off Ct on his
last round. This is a stroke better
than the 6s made by Gil Nichols three
years ago.
1t is doubtful if more superb golf

afternoon has ever oeen furnished in

Only twice during the round was

the fourteenth ne showed his second

shots, either with wood or iron, left
little to be desired.

as follows:

In addition to first money, Barnes
won the special $25 award for making
the lowest single round of the tourna

Not once during the day did the win

working so beautifully that it left him
with puts for IS at many of the holes.
In his second round he proved equal
to saving a stroke on the greens by
sinking his first putt at the second,

and fifteenth holes.
While going to the thirteenth an in

might have had an extremely low

found with 73 and IA for lat, only q
stroke worse than his first days total.
Several times Brady missed puts by
falling to be up. the ball stopping an
inch or two short of the cup.
Nichols. who got fourth money,

The sight OF a good workman at
his work is creative" writes Sir
George Douglas in the course of an
exhaustive article on Imaginative
Writer'S" in recent number of
Chambers Journal He then goes
on to sketch a few pictures of gent
uses at work:
Lord Byron, in whom the divine
spark was allied with a more than

"A more curious case is that of
TheOphile Gautier, one Of the most
luxuriously sensuous of poets and
most highly finished Of stylists. Here
is the account of how he wrote his
Travels in Italy. given by his friend
Maxine du Camp: This book, which
one would suppose 10 have been

chapter was complete.
- I'm contrast TO this is the pro-
cedure of Robert Burns. as described
by himself in a letter TO George
Thompson, the editor of his songs
He writes: My way isl consider
the poetic sentiment correspondent
to my idea of the musical express
sion: then choose my theme; begin
one stanza; when that is composed,
which is generally the most difficult
part Of the business, / walk out, sit
down. and then 5ook out for objects
in nature around me in unison and
harmony with the cogitatiOns of my
fancy and workings of my bosom; ;
humming every now and then the
air with the verses 1 have framed.
When 1 feel my muse beginning TO
jade, l retire to the solitary fireside
Of my study, and there commit my
illusions to paper; swinging at in
tervals on the hind-legs of my ell
bow-chair, by way of calling forth
my own critical structures as my pen
goes on.
Shelley, like Burns, found the
sight of natural objects inspiring,
but instead of resting content, as
Burns did, with those nearest at
hand, he would seek out rare and
reconcile varieties and combina-
tions of natural beauty. At Mar
low, at Keswick. in Wales. in Switz-
erland. most of all in Italy, he was
ever in quest of earth's loveliest and
most impressive scenes.
Il make no apology for intro
ducing Schiller into my group of
poets, for, had his countrymen laid
Schillers teaching to heart, il might
have restrained their degenerate
tendencies and saved them from
their moral cataclysm. His method
of production, however, indicates
strain; indeed, the means to which
he resorted to stimulate Pegasus are
at times rather painful TO read of.
For example, it used TO be tradi-
tional in Weimar that he kept de-
caying apples in his room for the
sake Of the nervous irritation pro-
duced by the effluvium; and surely
a poet must be hard put to it be-
fore he comes TO that Another
story describes him as sitting at
work with his feet in a tub of cold
water and a hot towel about his
brow TO drive the blood TO the brain.

spect far above those of alcohol.

His hatred of being observed or in

laughable lengths AS a matter of
