and unless the fact is conceded that
the trial horses upon whom Califor-
MIA has worked out her victories are
poorer than was believed the chances
would favor the coast team. They
probably have not met any men as
proficient in the throwing and re-

have great confidence in their ability
to defend against even these stars.
