Man-Eater Kercheval Dug
Crave With His Teeth

There is the tale of Kercheval. A
popular horse in the West thirty
years or so ago, he had won the
Burns Handicap, then one of Cali
fornia's most celebrated turf
events. But perhaps success went
to his head or it may have been
that he was bad one at heart. To
this day men will argue about that,
but the facts in the case are plain.
Kercheval was a man-eater. At
first he merely nibbled at his sta
bic boys and-Since those free and
easy hOrSemen of another era prob
ably figured that there was no ac-
counting for tastes-nobody took
that seriously.
Soon not even the biggest helping
OF oats or the juiciest hay that mon
ey could buy could tempt him half
as much as nice bite out of a
customers arm. Even in an era
for jaded appetites this was trife
too much. They wanted to be fair.
though, and so they gave him an
other chance.
It was no use. Like many a man
who lets temptation run away with
him, Kercheval was determined to
dig his grave with his teeth. So one
afternoon after he had slashed off
most Of a lady's bonnet as well as
too feet Of hair and some scalp,
they decided that there was moth
ing else to do.
Kercheval was indicted and tried
in due form by the sovereign state.
There was much that could be said
in his favor because, as has been
mentioned, he was a horse with
winning ways.
So they deliberated twelve
good men and true--and then re-
turned with the verdict. OF course
there were other alternatives Open
to them, even though they deemed
him guilty beyond doubt. But the
thing was new then and the West
ever has been section given over
to novelties. Besides there may
have been those who noted a wicked
CLEAN in the eye of this horse who
stood in the crowded court room
with probably never a worry as to
where his next meal was coming
from.
/ do not know about that though.
I only know the facts in the case
and they are plain. While Kerche-
val looked longingly at the fat fore
man the verdict was read.
Kercheval had been sentenced to
be electrOcuted. And these are the
tales that are told in the evening.

of Rothstein's Cache,
Man-Eating Horse

IT ALES that are told whe1 gray
= haired men gather on the We
randas while the stars stand their
watch at Saratoga.
There are the whispers about the
fortune Arnold Rothstein, the sure
thing gambler, may have hidden
some place before he suddenly de-
parted from this earth. Most of
the veterans here knew him-some
of them only too well and too sad
ly-and they doubt whether his es-
tate could possibly have been as
small as the records show.
It is not that they suspect any
living person but they knew Arnold
as he was, a clOse-mOuthed fellow
who early learned that you seldom
can go broke when you have aces
wired. So they sit and wonder
where those aces-the reserve fund,
the stake for another day-can be.
Some of them will whisper that
there must be close to $500, 900
worth of cash or easily negotiable
securities awaiting in some safe de-
post vault for an owner who never
will return. They-those veterans
who knew Arnold so well and some
times so sadly-say that would have
been just like him. To rent the box
under some assumed name and
then, trusting no man, to keep the
secret locked forever in his own
mind.
