MIGRATION To
SOUTH NOW
UNDER WAY

bOW46, WV @O' AAlC CAOuuo
of racing patrons to the South
land has begun. Every train leav-
ing this famous racing center
has a large delegation of horse
men destined for st. Johns Park,
New Orleans, Miami or Cuba.
Only those having engagements
to race during the remaining
week Of local sport have delayed
their departure.
Winter racing looks to be in
for its greatest season in the
history of the sport. HorSemen
have been educated to race their
thoroughbreds at some Of the
many popular winter course
which have sprung up during
the past few years. The old-Cime
prejudice against racing all year
round has been supplanted by
the knowledge Of the best way
to meet current expenses of cam
paigning a stable is to keep &C.
tive for the full IL months OF
every year.
st. Johns Park Is going to
be the first stopping off
place for a majority Of the
better known stables.
General Manager George Read
has been Swamped with applica-
tions for stall room at the Florida
course.
The 766 stalls cannot accom-
modate half the army of high
class thoroughbreds whose own
erS and trainers wish to take part
in the 18day meeting.
Those who raced at the track
in previous seasons are being
given preference in the allotment
of stalls this year. There is sure
to be a wonderful collection of
well known stars stabbed at the
course when the meeting opens
Christmas Day.
The success of the initial
meeting staged last spring
has caused a feeling of secur-
ity to spread throughout the
turf world.
Horsemen are generally skepti-
cal about shipping their star
thoroughbreds about the country
without some sort Of guarantee
that they will be protected to the
extent Of having the advertised
purses distributed among them.
The buSinesS.Ake way in which
the former meeting was con
Quoted at st. Johns Park has
proved sufficient to convince the
turf community that those back
Of the Jacksonville gathering are
honest III their endeaVorS to live
up to every promise they make
to both hOrSemen and patrons.
This feeling of security
means success for the COM
ing gathering.
The st. Johns Park gathering
will be staged on Christmas Day.
An added money handicap will be
run as the opening feature. Nom
nations for the same will close
week before the stake is to be
run. Many of the best known
handicap stars of the east and

Man Sought in Shooting Found in Hospital - Ac- tual Gunman Says He Was Promised a Large Sum to Shoot Southern State Senator.

Columbia, S. C., July 31 P- Glenn D. Mcknight, former bootleg whiskey king and one-time federal prohibition agent, was in the state penitentiary here today, named by W. L. Thornley, confessed slayer of State Senator E. J. Dennis, as insti- gator of the assa ssination.
 Mcknight, sought by more than 16 state consta bles since Thornley con- fessed he was hired to shoot Dennis a week ago today, was arrested in a Charleston hospital yesterday, Despite the affidavit of his physician that he was in no condition to be removed, Governor John G. Rich ards ordered him brou ght here.
 Repeats Confession
 Thornley, 35 year old World War veteran, repeated his confession un- der oath to a coroner's jury here last night. He again named Mcknight as the man who had inspired the shooting.
 After hearing Thornley's testi- mony, the inquest was adjourned, to be resumed at Moncks Corner, on the call of Solicitor A. J. Hydrick, in charge of the investigation. Sen ator Dennis was shot at Moncks Corner.
 Mcknight, picturesque character of the Hell Hole swamp area of Der kelley, branded Thornley's confession

tor honestly believes he can go safe- ly by Even first class operators con- fronted with situation of this kind are sometimes tempted beyond re- sistanCe.
 Run Risk of Arrest
 Prom the standpoint of the dis ciplinary authority, it must be real ized that such passage is undertaken at the risk of arrest. Every police man knows that he cannot allow ex- captions to a rule of such great im- portance as that of passing to the left from the rear. If he did wink at this offense occasionally, it would not be long before it would become an accepted practice. A lot of drivers who are not qualified to exercise reasonable judgment in circun- stances of this sort might try it and get killed or kill somebody else.
 Another point which ought 10 be considered by anybody who contem- plates an act which is against the law, is that he is an outlaw while he is doing it. If anything under the sun happens to him he has no redress in court.
 The practice of passing on the right cannot be justified under exist ing law, nor can it be permitted except in traffic which is directed by a policeman or some other au- thorized person."
