Raised Million Dollars

To prosecute his alleged claims he
borrowed money from any one he was
able to interest in the patent. As
security for the money he always gave
his personal note, the principal of the
note being many times in excess of
the amount of money borrowed. The
note would mature when the suits
were settled Thus, for a loan OF
$40, Doc" Robinson would issue a
note for $1,000.
Doc Robinson carried his suits
from one court to another in such
way that the matter has been con-
tinually in litigation for nearly twenty
years; he even wrote briefs OF his
own and without the aid or advice Of
lawyer would have them filed in any
court he saw fit. Finally the whole
affair was in such a tangle that both
judges and lawyers confessed that
they could make neither heads nor
tails of the affair. When he filed a
brief in answer to confidence charges
against him, certain states attorney
confessed to the court that he could
not answer the brief because it was
utterly incomprehensible."
In his method of borrowing money
it is said that DOC" Robinson has
raised in the last twenty years more
than million dollars.
Spent Money Like Water
doc" Robinson made himself ex-
tremely popular with street idlers
along State street by the prodigal way
in which he spent money. 1t is said
that he gratuitously gave away thirty
or forty dollars day to his retinue
of followers Many time he would

AUSTRALIAN HORSE WINS
MORE THAN GREAT cARBINE

After having held the record more
than thirty years as the largest win
ner in the history of the Australian
turf. the great Carbine lost his laurels
few weeks ago. BY winning one Of
the rich stake races at Sydney, Fury
thmic brought his total up to
$3.50, 1876. or $4,000 more than Carbine
earned in his thirty-five winning
races. Eurythmic has started in
thirty-five races, twenty-eight Of
which he has won.
The new champion of the An
tipodes is reported to be as much Of
a public idol as Carbine ever was or
as Man o'War became in his short
career on the American turf. He has
twice failed in Australians most IA
nous race. the Melbourn- Cup, yet
the discriminating public, remember
ing his crushing burden OF 145
pounds over the two-mile course, still
cheer him as a hero whenever he ap-
pears. He is now five years old. AS
a four-year-old last season he earned
sos, 900 and won twelve races, three
of which were at two miles and six
at a mile and a baltimore distance

I asked the player in question to
keep a record of his shots and he
could see for himself where he had
made his mistakes. For instance,
nine out of ten times he was short in
his approach. This was because he
had figured each time on more roll
than he got. This ] considered his
chief fault and asked him to pay
particular attention to checking him
self up on the approach pitch shot.
The result was that he soon began
