The Corrigan entry, Moylan, was a pro- nounced 7 to 10 choice for the third event, a six-furlong sprint, decided under selling conditions. Much was expected of Ara- pahoe, played from threes to 13 to 5. The fayorite was cut off at the start, but went around his field, and in 8 hard crive finished ahead before the second choice Arapahoe. Petrarch showing continually improving form was but a head farther away. The seven-furlong jaunt that was fifth ©on the card was pretty easy for Greyhurst, the 7 to 5 favorite. He made most of the running and aowned George Palmer a head with something in reserve. Willie Martin rode Nonchnalance, which was heavily backed at 4tol. Either Martin did not unduly exert” himself or else the ob- ster’’ fashion. The final race over one mile and a fur- long proved an easy win for Red Glenn, the odds-on favorite, which won very easily from Little Cripple, second choice in the betting.

After discussion of an iniportant arrest, sfories thiat the subject suggested natu- raily followed, and this one, in the De- troit Free Press, was told by a leading business man who would not care to have his name accompany it: “iike the great majority of boys I was infatuated with detective yarns and by readisg them became possessed with the idea that I had the special qualifications of ‘a great thief-taker. ' The practical men in-this line of busimess did not encourage my desire ta enter their ranks, but per- sistency is one of my characteristics and L1 was given g chance as a voiunteer with- out pay.” | . “Just at the time I began operations there was a number of footpatis operating in the.city, and I secretly determined to | win' my spurs at_once by rounding up these knights of-the pavement. I' con- ceived the brilliant idea of #naking myself |ap.as. a'decoy, putting on a fine suit of clothes, plug hat, plated chain and pasie studs. Then I betook myself to the more retired portions of the city and wandered ““Asd decoy I was a howling success. I had just passed a dark alley when I was swiped to fhe earth with a sandbag; a re- volver-muzzie was inserted into my right ear and I had a very misty comprehension of what was going on'while being stripped of my cheap adornments, arms and | pocket-book. I rested from tkeeffects of the assault for about ten minutes, but was very shaky on my pins. This must have created the impression that I was a swell on a toot, for I was held up tree times in as many blocks and soundly thrashed each time for not having something to reward the ruffians for their trouble. ““You can be sure the case was never re- ported and all I have ever said to the de- partment was that they would have to get along without me because I had stumbled upon a much better thing. I still think I bad a great scheme 1if the footpads had only stood in with it.’’ L g The fashion for suuff taking became general in France in the early part of the reign of Louis XV., although Louis bit- terly discouraged the practice.

He Won the Great Five-Mile Event at the Velodrome in Record Time. Russ Maintains His Position“as the Champion Amateur—Mott’s Fast Exbib.tion Rd> The pleasant weather and attractive programme drew an immense crowd to the Velodrome cycling park yesterday afternoon. The same exciting finishes characterized the riding as was seen at the mest on Christmas day, and the win- ners were heartily applauded by the spec- tators. The Velodrome people furnish oue de- lightful adjunct to their meets, and that is a very excellent band -of music, which discourses a long and varied programme of popular airs, tending to make the after- noons all the more enjoyable. The meet was handled by the following officials: & Referee, Henry F. Wynne; judges—H. H. White, E. B. Jerome, F. H. Ketrigan; timers— J. S Cornwell, George H. Stratton, A. P. Swain, E. E. Stoddard; scorers—W. L. Pixley, George Brouillet, H. D. Haydenfeldt; um- pites—T. H. Meherin, J. S. Egan, C. E. Griffiths, R. & Duncan; clerk of course, A. W. Wehe; assistants—Charles D. Petre, T. G. Spillane; starter, Douglas White; announcer, w. F. Knapp; assistant announcer, John C. Hines; marshal, C. W. Myrick; handicapper, |R. A. Smythe; L. A. W. representative, R. M. Welch. The star eventof the programme was the five-mile scratch professional race, run in three mile heats, the winners and two fastest seconds in each to qualify for the final. Those who came out for the first heat were Harry F. Tertrill and Horace Slater, Bay City Wheelmen, Max Morris of Texas, and Allan Jones, Olympic. Arihur Boy- den was put_in to pace and made it very fast. The finish was a beauty. Terrill jumped to the lead on the last lap, with Jones alonside. They rode this way for halfa lap, and Terrill by a little extra: shove barely won in 2:17 2-5. In the second heat were C. 8. Wells, Bay City, George Bovee of Texas, W. E. Becker of Minneapolis and F. M. Byrne, Impe- rial. Roma Dow was the pacemaker. Welis caught first place behind the pacer | at the start, but Becker gained the cov- | eted position by aclever play. On the bell tap they all sprinted, Becker winning hanaily from Bovee, Wells third. The time was 2:15 3-5. The starters in the third heat were W. A. Terrill, Bay City; D. E. Whitman of Los Angeles, and C. E. Dow of Seattle. Ed Chapman of Napa set the pace and Whitman was the first to catch him. The finish was wildly exciting. Terrill, who was last when the bell rang, and had to ride way up on the bank, clearly | showed his superiority over his competi- tors by winning after a hard struggle, ‘Whitman being a close second. The time was 2:16 3-5. This brought into the final the Terrill brothers, Bovee, Whitman and Becker. ‘Dow and Boyden were put in to pace the first two miles. After a pretty fight for the tandem, Becker got it, the order being Becker, Bovee, Whitman, “Bob” Terrill and Harry Terrill. The first mile was made in the startling time of 2:07 3-5, record time for the Velodrome. In the second mile there was'another fight for the tandem between Harry Ter- rill, Whitman and Becker. The Jatter got it, Terrill second. The two miles were made in 4:20. “Bob” Terrill dropped out at this point.

Terrill, Bovee and Whitman, a lap be- hind, caught on to the tandem as it passed and hung there to the finisn. Becker jumped to the front and passed the tandem on the last lap, ending a most remarkable race in the speedy time of 111:20. Terrill, Bovee and Whitman had to ride another lap to complete their five 1iles, and Terrill was judged the winner. Whitman third, Bovee fourth. This was one of the greatest races ever seen on a California track, and the con- testants and particularly the. winner, Becker, were cheered to the echo by the bighly excited audience. The gallery crowd was dissatisfied with the decision of the judges giving second place to Terrill, and kept yeliing *‘Bovee.” The latter entered a protest with the racing board, which was allowed, giving him second place and putting Terrill back to third. The audience was greatly pleased with this decision. Becker, the winner, is the five-mile Na- tional champion, an honor which he won at the big Leugue of American Wheel- mer’s meet at Louisville last August, against all the crack riders of the United States. He .easily sustaned his reputa- tion by his great performance of yester- day. The day’s sport commenced with one of a series of three match races between two smateurs from Marin County—H. E. Grimmenstein of Sausalito and H. W. Collins of San Rafael. The distance of the first race was one mile, and the race was paced by E.J.Smith of the Acme Club. It was an easy victory for Collins, who made the distance in 2:29 2-5, The second race, at two miles, was won by Grimmenstein in 4:53 4-5. The pacing was done by Smith and Joseph Catanich. The third race was also at two miles, paced by ihe same men, and was won by Collins, Grimmenstein having fallen on the west bank. The time was 5:01. Col- hns was then declared amateur champion of Marin County. The one amateur race on the programme was a mile-post race, run in four heats to reduce the field, with prizes for the win- ner of each lap in the final. Those who qualified were 1. F. Russ, Olympic; M. -comes to taking both in the same dose it M. Cook, Los Angeles; P. R. Mott, Reli- ance; C. D. Gooch, Re!iance; George Wy- man, -‘Acme, and Tony Alborelle, Olym- pic. Russ took the first lap after a hard fight with Mott; Gooch won the second from Wyman, and Mott got the third, closely pressed by Cook. Cook tried to get the fourth, but Wyman beat him by inches. Alborelle won the fifth, and then Russ jumped to the front and won handily in 2:17, Alborelle second, Wyman third. It was a very interesting and closely con- tested race and the management should introduce similar ones often. George E. Dixon and Charles A. Kraft of the Bay City Wheelmen rode a mile tandem exhibition in 2:012-5. The half was made in 56 seconds. Percy Mott of the Reliance Club rodea half-mile exhibition, paced by Gooch and Elford on a tandem, in 54 2-5 seconds, breaking the coast record. The world’s record is 53 seconds. A mile race on the old-style high wheels between E. Thompson, A. Harder and C. Harder was won by the latter in 3:06 3-5, Thompson second. The race was quite amusing.

And the Contemptuous Comments It Flicited From the Poet. *‘When we were talking about scars the other day,” .said the returned Cow Puncher, *’did I tell you about this one on my finzer?’ “Forgot that, I guess,” said the Boy's Own Story Writer. “Hadn’t made it up yet, you mean,” sneered the Poet. *It ought to be a good | one. He’s had a week to work it up in.” The poet, it may be well to explain, had | been indulging in late suppers of *lob’”’ and beer, s diet which is guaranteed to produce a state of mind favorable to poetry.. 5 Almost anything 1s favorable to poetry provided it is indigestible enough, and ob*’ (which is to say lobster) and beér answer these requirements so well that the Poet almost invariably counts on them for a sonnet, whereas a Welsh rab- bit produces only a quatrain or a rondean. However, patrons tuough they may be of modern poetry, “lob” and beer are pretty hard on iriendsbip. Things have been said against the societly of poets and of pessimiste, " taken singiv. When it The Imperials and right truly be called aliovathie. All of which is necessary to explain the Poet's state of mind. The Cow Puncher was serenely indifferent. “No,” he said reflectively, “'Itisn’t much | ofastory. If I realiy put my mind toit | Ithink [ could make up a better one; but trutu is something after all. It happened this way. I was siitingin our cabin writ- ing a le.ter—" ‘*A love letter?” from the Poet. “Right you are!’”’ said the unabashed Cow Puncher. ‘“‘And it was a better one than you ever wrote, too! If I could make a collection of the love letters whicn Uncle Sam brings away from those des- erts and mountains out there 1'd give you poets and novelists material that would lasiyou one while, and thai's straight! You don’t know what love is, with yonr namby-pamby ieelings based on your cal- culations as 10 how much it cost for two people to live in New York!” The Cow Pancher showed every symp- tom of being excited, but he disappointed the Poet.

The Cow Puncher suddenly cooled off, how- ever, after a fash:on of his own. fexas is a great State,” he remarked, and lignted a cigarette. . ‘How ebout tuat scar?” said the Boys’ Well, I was going to tell you. AsI said, I was sitting there writing a letter—a love'letter—when 1 felt something sorter tickle my left hand, which was resting on the teble. Ikind of moved it a little, in- voluntarily. 1 didn’c think anything aboutit. Supposed it wasafly. Butina few minutes my finger began to pain me, and when I looked in that direction there, if you please, was a vinigaroon siiting there and fatlening on my blood. What's a vinigaroon?

Next to _these come the uniforms of the Saxons, Bavarians, Hessians and others.
