Blood Told in Grand Prix.

BLOOD showed again In the Grdn0
Prix de Paris at Longchamps last
Sunday when Lemonora, by the Derby
winner Lemberg out OF Honora by
Gallinule, whose granddam, Geheim-
Miss, by Rosicrucian, won the Oaks,
was first in that richest of racing
prizes in gallant style.
What the Derby is t. the English
turf, what the Belmont Stakes, the
Preakness Stakes and the Kentucky
Derby are to the United States, the
Grand Prix is to the French, and its
distance, one milo and seven fur
longs, makes 1t a real test for three
year-olds. The contest calls for every
ounce of speed and stamina a horse
possesses. The winner is always
hailed as worthy of the highest op-
portunities in the stud. The race is
run in the beautiful park which Is a
part of the city OF Paris. It is
watched annually by an immense
crowd, attracted by the promise of a
great turf battle as well as fashion
display unrivalled elsewhere in the
world.
The purse for which this years
field contested amounted to 800. 900.
It is made up of contributions from
the city of Paris and the five great
French railway companies. 1t is open
to the entire world. One American
three-year-old won IL when the late
JAMES r. KEENE in 1881 sent after 1t
that great racehorse, but lamentable
failure in the stud, Foxhall by King
Alfonso out of Jamaica by Lexington.
He beat good field, including the
English crack Tristan. The late W.
X. VANDERBILT won IL with Northeast
in 1908, but the colt was bred in
France.
A number OF English three-year-
olds have been successful for the
Grand Prix, but by and large the
French have more than held their
own. Spearmint won 1t for England
in 1906. and as he also won the Derby
he must be classed as crack horse.
Then followed long list Of French
successors until 1919. when Galloper
Light by Sunstar scored for the
folks across the Channel. Comrade,
a son of Bachelors Double. won in
1920, and, now that Lemonora has
come through, the English have for
the first time In the history of the
classic won II three times in success
sion.
Some idea OF the encouragement the
French turf authorities give to the
horse industry may be derived from
the knowledge that $4,000 was the
share Of the winner this year. An al
lowsnce OF $4,000 was set aside for
the breeder of the winner, II bred in
France. This sum. OF course will
not be paid out. as Lemonora is II
product of the Sledmere Stud of Sir
MARK SYKES in England.
The favorite for the race was the
home bred Ksar by Bruleur out OF
KILL Kourgin, owned by Madame Ed
MoND BLANC. Ksar had shown great
form the past spring and the cables
announced recently that an offer OF
The New York herald., 1921-07-03

$500, 900 had been made for him by
an American. presumed to be A. X.
MAooMBER, who is racing a big stable
in France. That Bruleur won the
Grand Prix in 1913 and that Kizil
Kourgin was the victor In 1902 make
the colts breeding rather unusual
and this heightened French interest
in the race. Ksar ran unplaced.
Lemonora was a good two-year-old
and he was placed to Humorist for
the Derby. 1t was reported that his
breathing was affected early in the
spring, but no broken winded horse
ever won the Grand Prix, and he
must have responded to treatment
since his last English appearance.
He is the property of J. WATSON,
comparatively new devotee of the
turf, whose good fortune this year
has been remarkable, az with a COM
paratively small stable he has scored
Idleness from his string recently won
the Oaks, the great Lnglish classic
for three-year old lilies.
That the good ores bring the
money is shown by the fact that
Lemonora cost $16,500 as yearling.
His yearling half brother, by The
Tetrarch. brought s4s,OO0 last fall.
What her filly by Tracery will bring
in the autumn Is prCblematic, but
there will be great competition for
her.
The United States has a great in
terest in the Grand Prix winner, as
his half sister Herodias by The Tet-
rarch is owned by w. r. Coz Of this
city, who bought her and other highly
bred yearlings from the Sledmere Stud
during the war. There is a touch OF
pathos in the knowledge that WILL
IAN HENRY Rowe, the late registrar
of the Jockey Club, who advised the
purchase, died two days before the
race. He believed that Lemonora
was the best horse in England.

Texas Honors Pioneer Woman

Governor p. M. NEFF of Texas re
Gently placed his seal Of official ap
proval upon a bill passed by the State
Legislature making an appropriation
for the erection of a monument to
the memory of CYNTHIA ANN PARKER
This memorial is to be raised upon
her grave at Groesbeck, the county
seat of Limestone county, not far
from her childhood home and the
scene of the tragedy which made her
famous in Texas above all other
pioneer women Of the State.
The story of CYNTHIA ANN PARKER
fs one of the most remarkable In the
annals of frontier life in the West
The Parker family went to Texas
early in its history; the ranch which
the elders established In the Nava.
sofa Valley was one of the largest and
most prosperous in the interior of
the State. 1t lay apparently secure
under the protection of Fort Parker,
named after the family. One day
early in 1885 the Indians rose sud
denly out OF the dust of the plains
by hundreds. They scorned to par.
ley with the white men and swept
down upon the weakly defended fort
and the unprotected settlements
When they left the valley was in
ruins and every white person was
dead with the exception of CYNTHIA
ANN, then years old, her mother
and her younger brother JOHN.
These three were put on horseback
and ordered to follow in the Indian
trail back to the north. The first
day the two children were torn from
their mother. JOHN returned to
civilization and became a well known
resident Of the State. Years were
spent In search for the girl, but not
80 much as a clue TO her whereabouts
was discovered, and in the course OF
time she was given up as dead.
In 1860 an expedition made up Of
Texas Rangers. citizens and small
detachment OF the Regular Army set
out to repress the depredatlons Of the
confederated tribes, Kiowas, Conan
ches and Apaches. In the battle of
Pease River they divided the tribes
and the Regulars followed the fleeing
Comanche chief. NocoNA. The chief
was killed but his squaw and papoose
were captured. The woman knew no
speech but Indian, and while she was
bronzed TO the Indian color by the
wind and sun Of the plains her eyes
we're blue. She was crying over the
death of NocorA and the loss Of her
two boys. "She Is a white woman"
said Lieutenant KrLLIHER; IAN In
dian never cries" II was her tears
which restored hec TO civilization
she was easily recognized when she
was taken back TO Fort Parker and
the Navasota Valley. She often told
the story of her captivity aud she
seemed grateful to be again with her
own people. But she was then "a
years of age; only nine of these years
had been spent IN civilization, and
the longing to return to Indian life
and to find her sons was so strong
