DO VIE HORSES
HAVE EDGE

With many of the leading stables
leaving their thoroughbreds in the
barn until the Havre de Grace meet,
the horses that have campaigned
at Bowie have an edge on the
others for the Hartford handicap,
which will feature the opening
days racing of the Hartford Agri-
cultural and Breeders Association.
The race was won last year by
Harry Payne Whitney's Noah; and
it appears as if that same son of
Peter Pan has an excellent chance
of repeating this spring.
Noah won for Freddie Hopkins
at the first asking at Bowie, beat
ing such an animal as Senator
Norris in his initial start of the
season over a sprint of six fur
longs.
Then Noah came back, packed
1926 pounds, and won over Storm
King, Cudgeller and Chink in a
dash of five and a half furlongs.
In both of his winning efforts at
Bowie Noah showed the same speed
that characterized his racing as a
juvenile and a 3-year-old. If any
thing, he is better now than ever.
for in his two starts at Prince
Georges Park, he showed no ten
dency to stop, either at the five
and-a-half-f urlong route or the six
furlong dash.
Off those two races it is possible
that the Whitney colt will go to the
post a fayorite An the Hartford.
Although he/ won his starts at
Bowie with ridiculous ease, Noah
will find better opposition at Havre
de Grace, where a number of the
leading stables have their horses in
training.

One Life Lost in
Portsmouth, N. H., Fire

Portsmouth, n. H., March sap
One man was burned to death when
the Maplewood Garage was destroyed
by fire late last night, firemen dis
covered today when they reached the
ruins. They found the body of Harry
Haddock of S13 Beacon street, Bos-
ton, in the wreck Of burned auto
mobile.
Haddock. an employee of the
Portsmouth Navy Yard had been
transferred to the Boston Navy Yard
and was to have left on an early
morning train for Boston today. The
garage Waterman said that Haddock
was sleeping in an automobile ana
was to have been awakened at about
8 A. NJ, to catch a train. He said
that he aroused the man when the
fire broke out at about 1890 o'clock,
last night and told him the place was
afire and said he supposed Haddock
had made his way out. The police,
unable to account for him, watched
the department of the early train and
when Haddock failed to appear they
decided a search of the ruins.
1t was said today that sixty auto
mobiles were known to have been de-
stroyed an that others not reported,
might bring the total to 100 or more.
The total damage is erpected to ex-
coed $125,000. One wall of the Mar
geson Brothers Furniture building
was so badly damaged by the intense
heat that it may have to be rebuilt,
it was discovered today.
