Churchill umpired the eventful game
and according to AL Tearney, presi-
dent fthe Western and Three |
leagues, Churchill pledged to make
him an affidavit that the batteries
were announced as Murchison land

with the consent of the White Sox

According to this story the Sox
played against Murchison knowing
him and thus should be barred under
the laws of organized baseball.

WILLIAM C. WHITNEY. Mr.. WHITNEY
was in England prior to that race,
and in fact was not at Sheepshead
Bay when his colt won. He was ap-
preached by SLOAN, then at the
height of his popularity abroad, where
by the introduction of the monkey
on a stick" seat he had revolutionized
riding methods. The jockey was
familiar with Ballyhoo Bey's form
and he voluntarily expressed to Mr..
WHITNEY the opinion that with him
self as pilot the big prize was as good
as won. The result was retainer of
$500 and expenses, win or lose. How
SLOAN won that race and its sequel,
the Flatbush Stakes, is a matter of
turf history.
DoNoHUE is the idol of the British
racing public to-day, but he has no
more devoted following than the lad
from Kokomo, Indiana. who crossed
the ocean to show the English his
magic in the saddle.

Roses Work on Railroads.

Experiments have proved that
nothing prevents soil erosion on
steep banks more effectually than the
rambler roses. These decorative
plants spread their root system over
large areas, are sturdy in cane growth
and establish a mat over a wider
surface than any other available
plant.
These roses are highly ornamental,
a fact impressed on all travellers
over the New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railway. The right of way
IS made gay with blankets of red and
pink blooms wherever soil erosion is
to be feared. In the rocky cuts a
curtain of color gives a picturesque
touch to the surroundings that un-
der ordinary circumstances do not
reward the search for the beautiful.
The green Of the shelving banks
presents a harmonious background
for the bright roses whose luxuriant
towering bespeaks the. care with
which they are tended.
Many railroads have beautfied
their rights of way and station
grounds. Flowers and shrubs are
maintained at most of their stations,
especially in suburban communities
and important towns in which land
is not too high in price. In this
work the climbing rose almost in
yariabIy plays a part, but it is not
for beauty alone that it is used on
cuts and on steep banks. in such
paintings it holds the soil fast, checks
earth slides and contributes to the
safety of the road. The roses de-
light the travellers eye in the bios
soming season and protect his life
twelve months in the year.

Jockeys and Their Ways.

That the crack Irish jockey STEVE
DoNoHUE should have asked for the
mount on Captain Cutie in the
Derby, though an unusual procedure,
is not without precedent both in
England and this country.
Shrewd jockeys can tell great deal
about horses other than those they
are riding. 1t was this quality that
made ToD SLOAN invaluable to that
most astute of plungers, the late
GEORGE SMITH, who was known 20 the
turf as Pittsburgh Phil" SMITH
frequently approached owners with a
proposal to bet for them If they would
put SLOAN on their horses. Acquies-
cence usually brought success.
In the Two Thousand Guiness, won
by st. Louis, DoNoHUE must have
noticed something to make him ask
Lord WooLAyINGToN, owner Of Cap
tain Cutie, for the mount on his colt
in the Derby. That the public had
confidence in the skill and judgment
of the Irish jockey was shown by the
support the son of Hurry On got on
the day of the race.
One of SLoAN's most audacious
coups was achieved when Ballyhoo

Barn Raising.

1t would be interesting to know
how many pairs of long boots were
worn at that old fashioned barn rails
ing up the State recently.
A barn raising was once function
preceded by whole week of baking
and planning not only on the part of
the housewife but of the women folk
of the neighborhood, none of whom
would think of going empty handed
to help wait on the men after the
frame of the barn had been set up. A
barn raising outranked in Importance
a plowing or chopping bee. 1t was
invariably followed by a dance, in
which the white pine floors were
tested by the nimble feet of the
farmers, the heels and soles of whose
dancing boots were inlaid with nails
in heart, diamond and other designs,
the variety of which was token of
the skill of the custom shoemaker of
that day. The tighter the boots the
more satisfactory the fit, and many
veteran whose thatch is gray tells of
having to go sockless to don a new
pair of dancing boots.
An old fashioned barn raising meant
the hoisting into place of the frame
of a structure whose units were to be
fastened together with wooden pins
that are still to be seen in every old
building. When the framers-men
who fashioned the timbers out of
rough logs and fitted them together
had completed their work the owner
issued his invitations. Captains were
selected and teams chosen. At signal
the skeleton of the barn was elevated
by long pixies while agile young
sters in stockinged feet ran along
the plates driving home the treenails
that were to hold the frame in place
The quickest workers won the vic
tory. If a pike slipped and the
framework fell it meant a serious
accident.
Many of the barns built under
these neighborly conditions are still
standing, the admiration of all who
examine their construction. Their
splendid hand hewn plates and sills
of oak and elm are as sound as the
day they were cut in forests that are
now only a memory.

The Damask Rose.

In my secluded garden grows
A quaint old fashioned damask rose,
The sweetest pink that ever knew
The pure caresses of the dew;
Its fragrance hints of fiowery frocks
The faint perfume from parted locks,
And laces on a maiden breast
Wherein a rose would love to rest.
Upon my wall a portrait old
Ilntrances from its frame Of gold, +
A girl in skirts OF pink brocade
And kerchief muslin frilled arrayed.
So smoothly parted is her hair
Above her brow serenely fair,
SO innocently wide her eyes
Clear as the blue of summer skies.
And yet so arch the little smile
Upon her scarlet lips the while.
/ feel she keeps 9 secret sweet
Beneath the painted kerchief neat,
And once a year she slips away
Between the dawning and the day
When rosebuds open. and bestows
Her beauty on the damask rose.
