If ihey develop extreme speed while do- t this, the trainers consider it only fair that they ehould be allowed to ive the yeariings records as proof to the public that they have done thelr 4| work. Notwithstanding this, an ef- fort was made at the annual meeting of the @entucky trotting horse breed- ers’ association to pass a rule forbid- ding_trainers marking yearlings over the Lexington track. There was con- siderable opposition and the motion was shelved for the time being. Un- 4 der the rules of the two parent asso- | ciations, yearlings cannot compete in races, and it is because of this that the vouagsters are given “tin cup” or time records. Both Lord Allen and Airdale are owned by J. Howard Ford, a New York millionaire, who is very fond of the trotters. It was only re- cently that he sold Billy Burk, 2.03%, to_the Europeans. McDonald regretted lnsini Billy Burk from his stable, as he believed that the stallion had an excellent chance to tzke the laurels away from the world's champion trotting stallion, The Harvester, 2.01. He raced the horse very successfully last seasom, but. hampion not made in a minut “Lon” believed, however, that with another careful wintering he uld be able to do the trick. Al- hough he has lost the star of his aged trotters, he has in the two colts mentioned a pair that promise to de- velop mlo sentational performers. The Indianapolis trainer has several green ones that are exceedingly fast, and, with good luck, may become stars. GEERS TO RACE DON NENSMORE. Chestnut Stallion.

Fred Clarke Says That Not Always Does Best Man Win. ‘When Fred Clarke was asked to pick the National league pennant winner he replied. “There are two elements that enter into baseball. One is ability, the other is luck. It generally requires a combination of the two to annex pen- nants. Do I mean to say that the best club does not always win? Yes. Take a situation like this The bases are full and a batsman sends a drive that a fielder misjudges or muffs and ali the runners score. Luck. Take another example: Same situation on the sacks and a good batsman drives out a long hit, which a fielder on a dead run with oné hand in the air pulls down. More luck. Multiply incidents like this, and give one club mere than its sNare of the bad breaks, and you have a sit- uation in which an inferior club will very often finish a season ahead of a better club. There are other things that enter into the Juck of the game also—sickness, accidents, the suspen- sion of plavers when a team.is crip pled and countless other little items that cut a big figure in the grand total, 8o I say that no man’s baseball ‘dope’ is a“good thing to put money om, no matter how expert his judgment as to playing ability may be. And it is well enough perhaps that this is true, be- cause it creates a glorious uncertain- ty which every student of the game will admit to be the feature which sustaing popular interest in the sport. If the admittedly stronger clubs al- ways won, where would your baseball be? It iS the chance that a weak club always has which swells the gate re- ceipts, ang makes baseball the great- est American pastime. In football, in racing, and even in pugllism the better contestant seldom loses; in bageball every week furpishes its surprises and its thrills, and if there is anything the amusement seeker Ifkes it is surprises and thrills. So far as the Pirates are concerned I think I may say that we are always hopeful and never boast- ful. The games are things to fight for; the breaks things to pray for. If | we get our share of the breake we will be up there somewhere—at the top, I | hope.” | THE WHALERS' LAYOUT. Johnny Burns Has a Squad of Good | Ones at New London. Manager Burns of New London has | twenty-four men signed up to date, as 7 and | follows: Catchers, Foye, Ulrich Garvey; pitchers, Jordan, Boldt, Rie- ger, Manser, Abercrombie, Radabough, Hedeman, Griebiel; first base, MacIn- | tyre; second base or shortstop, Dun- | Herman, Shea, Johnscn; third | Ostrich;_outfield, Brizes, Sulli- van, Nealon, Dowling, Keefe, Meade, Troutman. Half of the men signed have played here before, says the New London Day. Of the catchers Walter Foye | s been hore three seasons. He is | 1 good backstop and a great pinch | hitter.
