Maryland against the best of his
age.
The only other Derby starters
ness tomorrow are Xalapa Farms
Leonardo II, and Bon Homme and
Commander Ross Star Voter, who
finished seventh, ninth and eleventh,
respectively in the Kentucky race.
While subsequent events bred
suspicion that the sensational mile
and a sixteenth at Lexington, in
which Leonardo II virtually equaled
the American record, is not to be
expected OF him again, at least, un-
der heavy impost. the colts repu-
tation has continued surprisingly
good. With Bon Homme as an
added chance for victory the
Xalapa entry offers very potent pos
sibilities. There Is much less sup
port for Commander Ross decision
to start Star Voter, and il was prob
ably because he felt bound to have
his colors in Maryland's premier
turf event
As for the others in the race,
they can hardly be considered
among the first of the light 3-year-
olds until they have produced a
better record than is theirs to datae.
Jim Fitzsimmons placed a lot Of
hope in his namesake in the race,
Sunny Jim. a colt that went to the
barrier for the first time less than
a week ago, and won. But he was
not so enthusiastic after his second
start when he was defeated by Jee.
Touch Me Not is probably next in
favor. having come around surpris-
ingly after a very slow training
season. Polly Ann Is a frst-class
fllly. The others seem to be out
classed

Midget, Miller HugKins, who was
severely panned by the fckIe fans
Just before bis team departed for
the West, 10 evidently preparing
to return to the Polo Grounds In d
position to have the last laugh on
his critics. Judging from the way
the Yanks are playing ball these
days, they are no longer to be the
goats of those who claim that
lust because they represent a peer

observe the Hugmen this morning
roosting on the highest perch as
result of their two straight wins
over the worlds champions. The
Yanks have beaten Speakers men
decisively and there Is a strong pos
sibility that the worst Is yet TO
come.
Yanks Are Hitting Now.
For a while this spring the
Yanks weren't hitting and another
handicap was the failure Of the
pitchers to reach their proper form.
But the slabbing has been better Of
late and the ever reliable Carl MAJ
has rescued a lot OF shaky battles
On TOP Of this the Yanks are rock
ling the opposing pitchers in sys-
ten,atic fashion. As long as they
do that II doesn't take the best
pitchin- in the world to win. Yes
tcrday, for example. they hammered
Coveleskie uncomfortably hard and
heat him by wide margin.
Some days back there was talk of
Babe Ruth being out OF condition
To back this up there was a gen.
erally accepted belief that he was
not training as vigorously as might
he and had an overwhelming thirst
for night air. But, even were this
true, Babe appears to be standing
up under the strain.
At last reports he was hitting
.4is, which Is an exceedingly healthy
average. And. to put a final qui-
etus on the report that he will be
benched, George Herman Is sock
ing homers as he never did before.
Babe Ahead Of 1870 Pace.
Already he is two weeks ahead Of
his 1920 record, with eleven circuit
smacks. Last season 1t was not
until May 20 that he reached that
mari. On May Is of last season
he hal exactly hve four-sackers to
his credit. His present pace gives
those something to hope for who
risked a few shekels that he would
top his record of ifty-four. 1t t.
not only possible, but very prob
able, unless he breaks a couple OF
legs.
Coming out Of New York recently
was q report to the effect that Hug
gins had been given until June
to get his team started. with the
alternative of seeing some of his
stars traded. Coils. Rupert and
Huston were said to be very much
displeased with the teams work
Perhaps they can breathe more
easily this morning and postpone
the threatened trades. The chances
are that they are making rapid CAL
culations in regard to the world
series cash.
Things are getting too close for
comfort for the Nationals.

All they have to do with him

"One of the outstanding features of Seattle is the enmity between the laps and the whites" said MT. Galla- Sher." The farmers are allowed a stall in the Public Market for the small sum of ten cents day. If
 tourist should purchase an article
 from one of these men and not from
 the American merchant who has the
 next stall, he (the tourist) would inn
 mediately meet with disfavor with
 all the white people in the market. The Japanese comes in from the country to his stall about o'clock
 in the morning and opens it up for
 business, and then along about g o'clock his wife and children will ar rive. The man will then go back to
 work on his farm and the woman and children will sell the vegetables

Gallagher Finds Our
 Trolley Fares Highest

(Continued From Page One.)
 The mammoth parade of all the delegates took place just previous to the closing session on the afternoon of July 14. Four former Bridgeport men who now reside on the Coast, represent this city. TDe men were John P. Dunn, Frank Reynolds, Jas. Ashley and Fred Onkey. The Phila- delphia division took the prize of $1,- 900, which was offered to the most unique section. The Pennsylvania city had 200 men and 100 women dressed in Quaker costumes, band of 1O6 pieces and 300 horses brought all the way from the home city. The display cost the lodge in that city $22,0O0.
 All the western cities sent bands along with their contingents. The cost to equip the group which rep resented Seattle, Wash, was $11, ,000. Hundreds and hundreds of men, clad in velvet trousers and boleros, with huge saShes and sombreros, rode splendid horses with trappings of metal.
 "It was really western parade" said MT. Gallagher, Hodges which had a membership of 1900 had 17OO atively forgotten, but wait until the national convention in Atlantic City next July, then we will show those people something"

The float bearing the Mack Sennett bathing beauties created quite a sensation as did the one representing Mary Pick ford as the Queen of the Movie-' A girl resez n bling Mary, only because of her blonde curls, was clad in georgeous court robes and seated on a very high throne. Few of the real Iy big stars were seen in person, but even the appearance of the lesser favorites caused much applause.
 remarkable Flower parade took place. Wealthy California families sent to Los Angeles huge displays of flowers in gay designs on auto trucks ana touring cars showing the beauty or the flowers of that state. This mag nificent exhibition was typical Of the Californian and the western people who are always boosting thelr nome towns
 Only in a large California city could either of these parades take place, the electrical, because these powerful lights could not be obtain ed only where the movie industry was carried on on a large scale, and the flower show, for only in this Eden of the West are such a variety of flowers in bloom at one time. At the present time carnations are sell ing for ten cents a dozeN, while roses are fifteen cents a dozen
 During their stay in Los Angeles, MT. and Mrs. Gallagher were the Creighton. After the close of tn ? convention they went to San Fran cisco and then to Seattle, at which place they met Mrs. Joseph O'Brien. who is a daughter of the late John McMahon, of this city.

From Montreal they immediately came to New York and then to Bridgeport.
