Jack Joyner, the veteran trainer, after
hearing McNaughton's story, said
Horses do strange things and strange
things happen to them. know of no more
mysterious happening than the cure of
Orifamme.
I'm the late sos Jimmy Rowe gave T. B.
Davis, uncle of the present steward of the
Jockey Club, the gray colt Oriflamme
The horse was lame and seemed hope
lessly crippled. but Mr.. Davis believed he
would make a good sire and asked me to
take him to his farm in West Virginia He
was at Sheepshead Bay, and 1 was about
to move to Washington to race Mr.. Davis's
string there.
'Orifiamme could scarcely walk In
those days there were no vans and we
walked the horses to and from the ferries
and railroads. Orifiamme was in such
bad shape l sent him on his way to the
ferry three hours ahead of the rest of
the others, and at that they beat him to
the boat. The people along the streets
shouted at us that it was cruelty to ami
mails to walk such a lame horse, and it
took four men to get him on the boat and
half dozen to put him on the train

But every one in the stable denied
having touched the colt and all were sure
no stranger had been near his stable.
II then tightened the cradle, rebandaged
the legs and after warning all hands to
keep away from the stall 1 went to the
races. On my return the next morning the
bandages were on the floor.
There was the same profession of ig
norance by all hands, but 1 was certain
some one in my employ was disloyal, so
after bandaging him for a third time l
got another watchman, man 1 knew

all the help had retired and with my

Judge Dinney An hour later 1 was awak-

into the colts stall. There l saw Judge
Dinney doing a contortionist's act He

"Chicle was foxy fellow, too. He had
bad feet and when in training 1t was neces-
sary to put them In buckets of healing
water every night. We did that every
night for months but got no results. The
same lotion had heeled other horses feet
and couldn't understand why this fellows
didn't improve. Every time went to his
stall his feet were in the buckets and the
employees reported the same thing.
FINALLY I became convinced he was
fooling me and 1 planted a negro near
his STALL The lad found out quickly why
his feet didn't respond to my treatment.
AS soon as any one would come near his
stall he stuck his feet into the buckets
and as soon as they'd leave he'd take them
out again. I cured him by strapping
the buckets to his feet and making him
stand in them all night.
"Greenfeaf did the same stunt on me
but we caught him when he pulled a
bone His front feet were sore and were
placed in buckets of water but like Chicle
he used to take them out as soon as he
was sure no one was watching him. One
day while he was munching hay the door
opened suddenly and he put his two hind
legs in the buckets instead of his sore
front ones"
Billy Shields tells the story Of Logan
which could not stand the sight of a uni
form. This aversion cost the railroad
companies hundreds of dollars and earned
for the colt the sobriquet, "Hustler's De-
light"
Now. a hustler is shiftless fellow,
who follows racing from one track to an
other. He is usually an ex-stableman and
just as happy with dime in his pocket
as on the rare occasions that bring a
windfall.
When racing shifted from one track to
another. dozen hustlers would watch
for Logan. When he was placed in his
car they would scamper aboard and hurry
to his stall. He was as kind and docile as
kitten with them but no one with q
uniform could come within ten feet of
trains knew him and feared him. They
never went near his car with the result
that the hustlers rode without buying
tickets
Jim Fftzsmmons says he has a cunning
and intelligent horse in Captain Alcock.
Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays are
his work days and he knows them as
well as 1 know them," said Fitzsmmons.
IF storm or heavy track should make
it necessary to postpone his work he seems
tc anticipate it and delight in it. On his
off days when he has only a gallop he
returns full of vim and without urging.

toned all my help, but all declared they
hadn't been near him. walked him around
the block near the station half a dozen
times. Still there was no signs of lameness
Then galloped him and he wanted to run
away.
"Mr. Davis had seen him before he
started South and was sure he was
hopeless cripple. 1 wrote to him about the
miracle and asked permission to train him.
He wrote back that I was crazy, but that
I could do as 1 wanted. So 1 put the colt
in training and he won twelve straight
races and defeated the immortal Firenzi
in the Fordham Handicap.
And I had dreamed the result of the
Fordham. 1 told Rowe about it the day
before the race and he told me that I was
going coo-coo. But the race was run as
winner"
1t was now up to Rowe, dean of the
korsemen and trainer for Harry Payne
Whitney and he obliged with some recol-
lections.
Borrow is shrewd fellow" he said, He
hates me and also Marshall who used to
exercise him. If he could catch us he'd
kill us, sure. Although he has been retired
for several years he still remembers that
we used to make him work and If ever
there was thoroughbred which detested
work he was the one. If either of us at
tempts to cross the field in which he is
loafing at Brookdale he will chase us to
kick out our brains if we don't get out of
his way. He has made me hustle many
times. To escape him 1 often ran fifty
yards to fence in record time.
HE was as cunning as fox when he
was in training too. He used to lose sleep
so he wouldn't have to work. In all the
years had him l never saw him sleep and
the night watchman used to report to me
regularly that he was awake every time
they entered the stable. Several times 1 let
him escape work because 1 believed he
hadn't slept.
"One day I concealed a groom in the
stall next to his. When the help left the
stable Borrow laid down and slept like all
the other horses. But he slept like the
hoboes-with one eye open. Just as soon
as watchman entered the stable Borrow
woke up, jumped to his feet and began
munching hay. When the watchman
passed he'd lie down again and have an

clay was sweet and all horses are fond

BOARD yesterday to II. +. Alexander, Of
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
and president of the Admiral Line.
The deal was cons,lmnated on the
eve of her departure on her last voyage.
This announcement was made, by
Commissioner Far.cy. of the Shipping
Board, today after n long distance tele-
phone call to New York For time
Shipping Board officials were pcrturbed
for fear the sale had not been closed.
Although Mr.. Alexander $ bid was ac-
ccptcd several days ago, it appears that
the papers formally transferring the
vessel to its new ownership We're not
signed until yesterday.
Officials here, while calling attention
tn the fact thnt the Northern Pacific
was insured by Wilcox, Peck Il
Hughes. of New York, were clearly
clatcd that the Shipping Board no
longer shares any responsibility for the
vessel or its capgo.
Delivery Made in New York
1t was officially stated by Commits
sioner Farley that delivery was made
in New York City prior to the de =
parturc of the Northern Pacific from
that port.
Although both the Navy Department
and Shipping Board sought informa =
ton from all sources as to the details
Of the disaster. they were able to sup
ply only the bare facts of the transfer.
