FOR ENDURANCE
RACE TO A FINISH
Test Course Of Indeterminate
Length, With Final Decision
by Elimination Advocated.
BY G.. CHAPLIN.

When Rustem Bey and Crabbet led
the field into Camp Devens at the finish
OF the recent cavalry endurance test
their owner wanted TO continue the con-
test to finish by extending it one or
more days, or until the horses them
selves decided which could go the great
est distance without showing slgns or
distress The Judges however. stopped
all. contestants at the end Of five DAYS
and the next day awarded the prizes
according to their opinion Of the con-
ditlon OF the horses. after considering
their average daily speed and the
amount of food consumed in covering the
three hundred mile course.
Under the rules governing the test the
Judges were authorized to stop any horse
at any time when his condition was
such as to render II cruel or inadvis-
able TO permit him to proceed further y
This power they exercised so well that

Rustem Bey's performance this year
and In 1919. when he led nearly all the
way, but was disqualified on the ground
that he was lame the morning after the
race was over. has convinced other
horsemen besides his owner that the
best way to Judge future endurance
tests would be to make them OF inde-
terminate distance and let the compet-
ing horses keep on going sixty miles a
day with weight up until they decide 1t
themselves by the process OF elimIna-
ton. The fact that Rustem Bey was
sound enough TO finish first again this
year. carrying 2i5 pounds over hilly

season was nothing serious apd might

Success Of Breeders Show.
By FRANK r. DOLE.

An organization that IN It's time has
done good work for the dog, the Toy
Spaniel Club Of America. has by its own
action passed out OF existence. 1t held
the first hotel shows In New York at
inc Waldorf-Astoria. over twenty years

breeds and supported by a large entry
and large attendance Indeed. fhe ex-
hibitions were In the early years very
fashionable and society features of the
!uccesSiye sea SONS
The show was the pioneer in the ex-
ploitation OF many toy breeds that have
since attained to favor. although the
members were chiefly concerned IN the
welfare Of the English toy spaniel. But
the club held out helping hand to all
toy breeds, and through jts encourage
ment many Of the speciality cluos were
organized that now hold hotel shows Of
their own. a situation that has detracted
from the prominence OF the Toy Spaniel
Club OF America and which led TO its
passing out.
Japanese spar,els. Pomerar'ans end

while the Poms, Pekes and Japs went
ahead very fast. Among the breeds that
were doomed early, too. were the French
culldogs and Boston terriers. An Eng

this country, the white English toy
terrier, az one time had quite boom

GALA RACING DAY
AT FOXHALL FARM
Teams Of Steeplechasers From
Eight Hunt Clubs Compete for
$4,000 Trophy in Maryland.
ny GURNEY c. CUE.

It Is striking commentary on the
character Of the present day public inter-
est IN horseracing that tho first contest
for tho Foxhall Farm Cup in Maryland
d week ago passed almost unnoticed eX-
cept for an exaggerated report Of the
slight accidents which befell L. Ambrose
Clark and A j. Antelo DevereuS. two of
the amateur riders in the sporting
steeplechaso of four miles and half
over the new course built by Boxhall p.
Keene at his country place near Monk
ton. The occasion was one that meas
ured up to the best traditions of turf
sport and attracted attention among
cross country riders in England as we'll
as the United States.
THE HERALD last winter told OF Mr..
Keene's plan to give a perpetual chal-
lenge trophy for a hunt club steeple-
chase. In which each club, should be rep
resented by team of three starters.
the winning team to be the one making
the best combined performance. To
carry out this sporting project the vetes
ran polo player and amateur jockey laid
out course over hill and dale on his
own and adjoining land in Maryland
which horscmen have pronounced n
model OF its kind X embraces thirty
two Jumps, each one conspicuously num-
bered and including three natural water
jumps, besides rail and plank fences,
walls, bitches and variety of obstacles
to test the horses and their riders The
character of the country is indicated by
the fact that twenty-five Of the thirty
two Jumps could be seen from the special
stand which was erected for the Gov
ernor OF Maryland near the highest point
on the course.
As prize for the chase Mr.. Keene
gave massive silver cup in which the
value OF the metal was s4950 when
ordered and which was found to hold
eighty-two quarts when the punch was
followed the days sport.
Ten hunt clubs in New York, Penn
sylvania and Maryland nfide entries for
the race and eight of thtm sent teams
TO tho post. The field thus comprised
twenty-four horses, each with an anna
tour rider up. who had 10 make his
weight at 175 pounds. General Bedell
Of the British Legation in Washington
declared that he had never seen a fnor
spectacle in England than the biz loid
OF high mettled thoroughbred and their
riders presented as they swept away
. from. the starting post toge;ber whon
J. X. Maddux dropped his Hng. The
hunts represented were Meadow Brook
Whitemarsh. Teadnor. IsEcE. Hartford.
Pickering. R0ckaway and F.ik Tdre.
The FIRST of tho big i1nps brought t.
prass eue of the Meadow Brook horses
and another from Whitemarsh, thus
eliminating both OF these teams. since
neither of the fallen chasers finished
