T HERE are fewer followers of
 l the ponies in Birmingham probably, than in any other city of the south. Nearly two decades have passed since horse racing was in vogue in this immediate section, ex- cept in New Orleans. Racing in Memphis ended about 15 years ago. Three "bargain day. bookies went broke at one of the last running races in the Bluff City when Circus, a 100 to 1 shot, won, and more money was spent for gin down in Beale avenue that than when Nerves crossed the Hellespont, or until Jack Johnson licked Jim Jeffries in Reno.
 Even the telegraph operators have ceased using the race track vernacu- lar and the barber gentlemen evl- dence no more interest in a long shot winner than the small boy does in a game of bridge whist during the baseball season.
 And vet among the old sportsmen left and the lovers of horse flesh throughout Alabama, the approach ing Kentucky derby, scheduled for May 8, has sent thrill courslng through their veins. It is a revival of Kentucky's chief characteristic, dating back to where no man really knows. And in the spring and sum mer racing at Lexington, Churchill Downs and Latonia, the purses will total $7O0,000, establishing new record.
 One of the old-timers, just back from Louisville, was telling me m the lobby of the Tutwiler last night about the winter betting book now doing a hot cake business Tn the Kentucky metropolis. Five ponies are in the list, quoted at 200 to l. They include Warlike, Eyes of Youth, Substitute, Travesty ahd Sand Maid
 Of course, these big odds will be lowered as the Derby date hears, and the list will be chopped to pieces by withdrawals. All wagers are pay or play.
 John P. Grier, rule equal choices at 10 to l. On Watch, stable mate of Donnacona, is next at IF to |; Blazes, Constancy and Damask are quoted at 15 to 1, while Prince Hal, favorite of Kentuckians, is at 40 to 1. The Swimmer is 25 to 1, Heron 40 to 1, and Peace Pennant, Alta Boy and Lorain rule at the 40 to l quotation. Miss Jemima, Rouleau, Simpleton and Royal Jester are quot 1 ed at 50 to |. Leviathan, Minute i Man. Sam Freedman, Vice Chairman and Sterling are going at 75 to l. 1 The 100 to 1 shots include Boone i vile, Poppycock, My Laddie and | Patches.
 "Pop" Geers, the grand old man | of the trotting track, and every race track notable in the country is pre- pairing to be in Kentucky and there will De the greatest assemblage of !, jockeys, trainers, stable boys, book les and touts in a period of a quar- ter of century. A
 And, take it from us, a bunch from Alabama, will be unable to resist the temptation.
 The switchmen, apparently, threw the wrong switch.
 And, mind you, an $18.50 pair of kicks involves 85 cents war tax. It will take more than the loss of an eye to keep "Uncle" John Me. Closkey out of the game, but there is not fan on the circuit who doesn''
 hope the injury of last Friday vii eventually prove a mere scratch anc
 that he'll pull through with all hi, faculties intact.
