EPINARD OVERWEIGHT
 BUT HAS WINTERED WELL
Wonder Horse Of European 1923 Rac- ing Season is Pronounced as Ready
 For a Successful Season

Maisons-L Laffittc. France, April f.-- | l;pinard, the wonder horse of the
 European 1923 racing season, has
 wintered very we'll and his scratching | from the Lincolnshire Handicap was
 not. duo 10 any distomper or trouble
 with his legs, which are sound and
 strong.
 To much weight, both on his back | and over his ribs is tho reason which prompted Pierre Werthcimer to with [ draw the horse from the English | classic.
 Mertheimer thought that asking a 1 horse to carry no pounds so early | in the season against the class entered | in the handicap wss "a bit rough," and he did not want 10 takc the chance Of getting inc horse to sour on his work, or meet with a defeat before starting off on his American campaign. The record weight ever allotted by the British handicapper, previous to the impost on Epinard, was l3S pounds which Polymelus was asked to carry some years ago. Poly melus scratched.
 The freezing weather of February made the track here so hard that it was practically impossible for Epinard to do any hard work at all.
 Eugene Leigh. the American trainer who looks after the conditioning of Epinard, told the correspondent the other day that working 40 pounds off Epinard in five weeks was a much easier task than taking half a pound off Johnny Dundee in five days in order to make the fcatherweight limit"
 Epinard's first engagement is. at Saint Cloud late this month, and Leigh says he will have the 'horse fit to run for kings ransom"
 Epinard is one of the sweetest tem- pcred animals that the veteran train- CT ever has looked after. His con- stant companion is a mongrel dog from which the speedy horse refuses 10 be separated, even when locked up in his stall for the night. An effort l once was made to have Epinard take l up with a dog of high degree, but it.. failed. The only show Of temper that the horse has ever shown was when ! Wertheimer insisted in forcing upon him as a companion instead Of the l a beautiful prize winner at l one of the recent dog shows. Epinard kicked. literally. for the first time, and i the attempt was abandoned.

NO PROSECUTION
Mrs. Nina Wilcox Putnam Sanderson Is Not to Be Arrested as Result Of Her Divorce Activities.

Providence, April 4.-Although her decree of divorce was vacated by Judge Chester ". Barrows, Mrs. Nina Wilcox Putnam Sandcrson the au- thoress will not be prosecuted for pre- senting false affidavits in connection herewith. The grand jury which in- vestigated her case filed a special re- port today in which it stated that no indictment had been found.
 The case of Faye Eisenberg, wife of a former New York corporation counsel was also considered, but no indictment returned,
 In its report the grand jury says l false evidence was undoubtedly pre- scnted in these and many other cases heard on dispositions but that it be- lieves misconceptlon of the laws re- quiEements may have been responsible It recommends, however, that witnes- ses and lawyers connected with such cases in the future be prosecuted.
