TALL TIMBER IS SECOND
r.. T. Wilson's Colt Sets Ter

From Judges.
by HENRY ". KING.

Robert L. Gerrys Cyclops, the black
swayback son Of Heno. won the
.Oceanus Handicap and hung up a new
six furlong track record at the ia
maica racecourse yesterday afternoon.
He ran as fine race as any juvenile
has run this season and beat high
class field of youngsters in sensational
style. At the end he was being driven
hard to beat Richard T. Wilson's Tall
Timber by three parts of a length.
Mrs. Payne Whitney's Cherry Pie was
third
Cyclops negotiated the six furlongs
in I'LL 1-5. fifth of a second faster
than the old figures established by
Harry Payne Whitney's Tryster last
spring
The race was one of the best two-year-
old events of the season. 1t was worth
$4,000. and attracted eight overnight
nominations and eight youngsters went
to the post. Blazc Seing being withdrawn
and Bayonet being added. Harry +.
Slnclar's Bud Lerner was top weight
with 122 pounds. and so nicely were the
weights adjusted that with the exception
of Frederick Johnson's Dream Maker all
of the starters were considered to have a
real good chance.
At one time in the betting it was to
and take your pick. But Cyclops and
Tall Timber received the most support.
and they went to the post equal choices
at to 1.
All Even at start.
The start was a perfect one. AS was
expected, Tall Timber quickly stepped to
the front. Once in command he sped
along at n terrific pace. but as fast as he
Travelled he was unable 20 get away from
Cyclops. Mr.. Gerry's colt was full of
run and hung at Tall Tmber's heels until
furlong from home. There the Wilson
colt began to falter Jimmy Butwell,
who had the mount on him, realized 1t
in jiffy and went to work on him like
LOTUS used to work on his mounts.
Tall Timber showed gameness and re-
sponded gamely. but Cyclops was a tri1e
too much for him, and gaining ground
gradually, went to the front twenty
jumps from home. As he stuck his neck
in front Butwell eased up a trife. being
content TO take the second end of the
purse.
J. IT. Rossiter's burnt orange and
white silks were TO the fore in the first
race for the first time in many weeks.
They were carried by Dolores. a bay
fily by Disguise. She followed Benja-
min Blocks Mawrcoron until turning
into the homestretch. There she stepped
to the front and gallcped the remainder
OF the way to win eased up by three
lengths.
Under one of the best rides Charley
Miller ever put up Huonec won the sec
ond race from a band of platers. Miller
rode this uncertain and erraic fellow
from the instant the barrier went up to
the judges He piled the whip hard and
often and by dnt of the hardest kind of
riding landed his mount home a head in
front OF Lackawanna. Horeb was third
The Peruvian beat big field OF cheap
sprinters in the third race. Mccoy rode
like master and landed him home a
length in front OF Night Boat. Evil
finished third After his victory Billy
Shields bid him up $500. This was in
retaliation for c. A. Applegate taking
his Roseate on Wednesday.

THE sEAGULL AND THE CLAM.

Somewhere up on the north coast,
the wind gods had broken their bar
riers. Around Tillamook Head they
swept down clear stretch of twenty
miles at clipping pace. We bent
forward to the falling point and
fioundered along in the teeth of the
gale, beating our way up the Oregon
coast, writes William l.. Finley, au-
thor Of american Birds"
Suddenly, as we rounded a point of
rock, my companion seized his field
glasses and focused them on gull
just above the shore-line. The bird
was rising with something in his bill.
AT a height of thirty feet, he dropped
the small object he was carrying, and
instantly, with a turn of the wing, shot
to the ground after it. Picking it up
again, he spread his wings at the
proper angle and swung upward like a
kite against the wind. Once more he
dropped the morsel, and now, knowing
the habits of western gulls, we con-
cluded that the bit he was carrying
was clam. It did not slip from his
bill by accident, as / at first thought,
for as we watched we saw him rise
fourteen times to drop the shell-fish.

AERoPLANEs IN THE ARCTIC.

The newspapers have reported the
finding of vast oil fields in the Arctic
region of the Canadian North and
stated that aeroplanes were to be EN-
ployed in reaching the district.
We now learn from a missionary
Father Lecorre, o. M. l., of Alberta
that the people of the wilderness are
actually viewing the airships and that
the reported treasures are fact. He
says that several planes from New
York have passed over the st. Albert
mission bound for the farther North
A couple of them on the return trir
brought the sad news that one of the
two missionaries sent to the Eskimos
to replace those slain by the natives
has been drowned while trying to
reach some of his sick charges. This
makes three priests who have lost
their lives in the Eskimo mission.
What must have been the wonder
and awe of the Indians and the Eski
mos when they first saw the great
noisy birds of the air swooping down
on the snowy wastes, and what effect
will this astounding communication
with white men, this meeting of North
and South, have on the natives?
Let us pray that civilization will moi
bring its defects rather than it's vir
tues to the Eskimos and make the
task of the missionaries harder thar
before.

THE MARRIAGE MART IN SIERRA
LEONE.

There are many ways in which new
made Christians can be helped, and
most of them are we'll known to those
persons who make practice of read
ing mission news.
One branch of endeavor is not often
mentioned, though the priests consid-
er it of paramount importance. This
is the founding of Christian families
through marriages in accordance with
the laws of Holy Church.
Take Africa, for instance. There, the
bridegroom instead of the bride must
furnish the dowry and lacking this the
parents of the possible bride will not
consent to let her leave the parental
roof. Of course this looks very much
as if the girl were being sold, but Gus
tom insists that parents receive either
q sum of money or some livestock be-
fore yielding daughter, and if the
Christian sutton is penniless then they
are going to accept the pagan son-in-
law who has the price.
Rev. M. Raymond, G. S. Sp., of Sier-
ra Leone, West Africa, would like
dowries for some good girls in his
school who would be able to secure
worthy Catholic husbands if poverty
did not stand in the way Of matrimony.
No great sum is required to satisfy the
parents and the result Of such unions
would be the edifying Christian family
life SO valuable as an example to the
pagans. Let some one help to make
the marriage mart little more lively
in Sierra Leone.
