The colt's second defeat by A. C. Bostwick's Mate at Arlington checked the enthusiasm cf the critics ranking Twenty Grand with Man o' War, the one and only of this generation of horse flesh. Since then, however, Twenty Grand has galloped to an easy tri- umph ovér the great SunBeau, the world’s. champion money-winner, and performed so impressively oth- erwise that it seems fair enough at least to compare the pride of the Whitney barns with the Big Red Horse of the century. The manner in Wwhich Twenty Grand_has been covering the route lately is highly reminiscent of the best. days.of Man o' War. 4 Although having much in com- mon, the two champions rose to fame with totally different meth- ods of ‘annthilating their rivals. Man o' ‘War, a quiet, well-man- nered horse in his stall, was a per- sonification of his name from the time he stepped on the. track. Always fractious at' the post, he battled against all efforts at re- straint and then would bound away at breath-taking .speed. Unlike most horses, he appeared to revel in defeating his rivals by as many lengths as possible. Twenty Gruna Stays Nice Twenty Grand is the pet of the stable and carries his good man- ners on the racing strip. Linus (Pony) McAtee, who was up on the Greentree ace in his Travers and Saratoga 'Cup triumphs, says he is the best mannered horse he has ever ridden and McAtee has been aboard many of them. At the post Twenty Grand stands perfectly still, with the result that he frequently is the last to get away. Although lacking much of the early dash and fire of Man o'War, +His inability to break fast resulted 'in Mate beating him in the Preak- | ness and the Arlington Classic but (once those hig long legs get to) | working over a distance of more | than one and one-quarter miles, 'he apparently is unbeatable, Like Man o'War he fairly eats up the ground in the stretch in an! effort to make the victory as con- vincing as possible. McAtee tricc 10 hold him back in the Saratoga Cup and Kurtsinger, attempted the same thing in the| Lawrence Realization but “they found it an impossible task. Outearns Big Red Twenty Grand’s record may not be quite as impressive but Twenty Grand has earned $60 more than, his "~ great ~ prototype. Man o'War won 20 races and $249,465. Twenty Grand has accounted for only 11 races and won $249,525. The Greentree star stands a| chance of going much higher, how- | ever, as he has several rich en- gagements this fall and will bel raced again next year. Man o’ War | was retired to the stud at the end| of his three-year-old career. Their three-year-old campaigns ' also closely compare. Both won the! (Preakness, the Belmont Stakes, the Dwyer, the” Travers and the Law- rence Realization. In addition Twenty Grand accounted for the| Kentucky Derby and Saratoga Cup, in which Man o' War did not start and the Wood Memorial and the Classic, which were not on the rac- ing calendar.

It is this great driving power that has caused many to refer to the Greentree colt as the greatest cup horse of recent turf history. PHONES 83 OR 85 .

J. Gilligan on Highway Two holdups were reported to the police last night. In neither | case did the robber get anything.| No arrests have been made. John Dalton, former owner of the Palace theatre and recently engineer at the Juneau Lumber Mills, was held up by an armed, unmasked man at 7:30 o'clock last evening on Main Street just south 1, lof its intersection with Front Street. Mr. Dalton had a check for a small amount of money and a watch. Both were given back to him after the robber had inspected them. Held Up on Highway Herbert J. Gilligan, who operates a for-hire automobile, was held up on the Glacier Highway near the Juneau Dairy, at 9:30 o'clock when he arrived there in his car in re- sponse to a telephone call to the effect that a person near the dairy | wanted to be driven into the city. He was searched, but no money was found on his person by the armed, unmasked robber. Mr. Dalton was walking aiong Main Street. He felt something| pressed against his left side and { | heard the words, “stick 'em up.” He | thought at first he was merely the vietim of a practical joke. Then he noticéd thé tevolver and be- came aware that the stout men of ium height, holdin pon, was in earnest Put Hands | Mr. Dalton put his hands in the | {air and held them e while a { quick, one-handed search was mad E . of his pockets. “Beat 1t,” was the robber's com- mand after he had given back the | check and the watch Mr. Gilligan’s experience was | similar. A revolver was po d at ;h:m as he stepped from his auto- | mcbile. He was subjected to a one-handed search that returned | nothing, and was then told to “beat it.” Cannot Be Identified Both Dalton and Mr. Gilligan reported the robber was unmask- led but that his cap was pulled down low over his face. They got such, poor looks at his features that they are doubtful if they | would be able to identify him. One of the Carlson’s taxicabs re- ceived a call about 11 o'clock to go to the Alaska Juneau Rock Dump for a passenger. On arrival there, the driver could not find anybody and returned to town. ‘Chief of Police Getchell believes that two robbers, working together, | perpetrated 1last night’s holdups, One, he thinks, did the actual holding up while the other acted as look-out. He is of the opinion that they are the same two men that entered the Capitol theatre and the First National Bank Tues- day night. B AT THE HOTELS Gastineau Harry Townsend, Seattle; R. E. Lawrence, L.
