Four Races at Saratoga ee Rancocas Stable Jockey Could Not Earn Braekets on Lucky Antoine, but Brings - Home Three Outside Mounts as Winners. By Vincent Treanor. BARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y., Aug. Laverne Fator, the Rancocas Btables jockey, won three races or half the card here yesterday on mounts outside of those of his em- ployer, but he could not land Lucky Antoine in the only other race in which he rode. Still three out of four is a record for any jockey to be proud Fator started the day on Toucana, Anning all the way and very easily. He came back with Fair Way in the third and raced the field dizzy on John Madden's Harridan in the last event. Toucana was an 8 to 1 shot, Fair Way paid 6 to 1 and Harridan was a 7 to 5 favorite. On Lucky Antoine, Fator was not so fortunate, This one was a recedin, choice and he raced like one. He was off badly to begin with and came with his usual stretch run when the race was about over. One of these days Lucky Antoine is going to begin @arlier and pop down in front. Fator’s ride on Toucana was a great tmprovement over that of Keogh on the same filly jast time out. He got her away in front and there was open @aylight between her and the rest of them all the way. At the end Tou- gna was five lengths in front of Miss @tar, and only trotting. She ran the five furlongs in 591-5, the half in 461-5. On Fairway, a hard horse to ride, tor just snugged him home, getting up in time to nod out Tufter, on whom Ensor rode a great finish. Fator encountered little contention on Harridan, She ran off in front as if she outclassed her company. Bud Fisher's Cartoonist showed himself to be a first-class colt by the manner in which he won the Adiron- dack Handicap. Clarence Kummer held him off the pace of Banter and at the head of the stretch came to the outside anc pointed him down the middle of the track. He was soon in front and the rest was easy. He just galloped to the judges’ stand in front of Bud Lerner, Cartoonist's last two races were bad, but in the Adirondack he showed @ performance similar to his race in the Flash opening day. On a fast track it will take a real good one to beat the Mutt and Jeff two-year-old. He looks as if route travelling will be his forte. There {s considerable discussion here as to how fast Saturday's race with Whiskaway, Bunting, Pillory land Kaisang will be run and ‘some predictions made that the records for three year olds over the course will be approached or beaten. This is the 2,01 4-6 of the mighty Man 'o War made with 129 pounds in the saddle land Sir Barton, a four year old with the same impost up. It is a task that will call for speed and gameness be- yond the ordinary. If the weather holds good between now and Satur- day, Supt. Clare will have the foot- ing perfect, in fact it was fast yes- terday. Bud Lerner carried his impost right gallantly for a little horse, in the ‘Adirondack Handicap, and though beaten he lost no friends, being in fa tight place three furlongs from home, Cartoonist excited a lot of favorable comment in the paddock. He is a smashing big colt and a well made one into the bargain, Cherry Pie came with a taking rush at the finish and was running faster than anything in the race at the end. He will be ready for the Hopeful Stakes on the closing day of the meeting. The Hopeful, by the way, will be worth $45,000 this year to the winner, ANNA M. HUMPHREY @AND DUST FLOWER ARE OUT OF RACING (Bpecial to The Evening World.) RACE TRACK, SARATOGA. N. Y., .aug, 23,.—Dust Flower and Anna M. {dumphrey, the fillies which Cal Milam predicted would run first and second in the Spinaway next Saturday, have both gone wrong and neither will be @en under colors again this season. The Kentucky owner-trainer ‘will ship them to his Kentucky {arm to- morrow, Anna M. Humptrey, never de- feated, has the reputation of being the fastest filly Milom ever trained. Though it was he who brofiht Miss Joy to Saratoga last year to capture the filly championship, the Ken- tuckians were prepared to bet their last dollar on this filly in the Spinway and again in the Hopeful. Dust Flower must be nearly as fast, for he beat a fine fleld of colts in the fash Stakes on opening day and ran wecond to Messenger in the Grand ¥nion, She developed soreness after &bat race. The other filly wrenched herself in the stall.

WELVE THOUSAND dyed-in- the-wool fans last night saw the combination of Francisco Verri, the Italian, and Pierre Seargent, a Frenchman, triumph over a pair of Uncle Sam's stars, Bobby Walthour Jr. and Freddy Hill, in two straight heats of a one-mile match race at the New York Velodrome. Among the enthusiasts at the finish line cheering madly for Walthour were Rex Beach, the novelist; Babe Ruth, Wille Hoppe, former billiard champton, and the great all-around athlete and stage star, Fred Stone, Walthour and Hill were too anxious in the first heat, and in their 0° ~ sty Freddy did the unpardonable ¢... 5 of fouling both Seargent and Verri, with the result that Referee Harold Dibble had no other alternative but to dis- qualify the Americans, On the bell lap Hill rode Seargent high on the backstretch, and msecond later, tt seems, he made Verri climb almost to the top of the track on the turn of the homestretch. Walthour, by the way, was leading and Hill wanted to make it a sure thing and he fouled himself out of first place. After Bobby crossed the line, with his part- ner right at his back, most of the fans looked for a disqualification, and their guess came true a minute later when Bill Rossbach announced Verri and Seargent as the winning team. The time was Walthour covered ihe last eighth in 12 2-5 seconds, Verri and Seargent were roundly panned whgn they came out for the second heat, The European pair jumped in front at the crack of the un and stayed there the first two aps. They relinquished the race t thelr opponents on the third and g in front again on the fourth crawl- ing along, biding their time for the tinal spurt. It was the same on the lifth dash until the last turn, when Walthour shot in front with Seargent at his back and Verri and Hill several yards behind, I looked like a winner, nt had dropped ng to take care Like a bolt out of a clear Verri thundering along, and »bby ure h to the the Italian ind passed Bobby and beat him by a foot, with Hill and Seargent : ng.

Until yesterday Abe Mitchell, the great veteran of English golf, wore the crown belonging to “the greatest match player in the world.” ‘Yesterday that trown was knocked violently from Mr. Mitchell's British head in @ thirty-six hole match against Walter Hagen at the Westchester-Biltmore Country Club in which Hagen defeated Mitchel! 2 up and 1 to play and, by the manner of his victory, proved that the crown Is rightfully hia. Hagen has always been known as a super golfer in the pinch, but yesterday he surpassed himself in snatching vic- tory from Mitchell's eager hands when the Englishman had him 4 down and 9 to play. Facing an almost hopeless task Hagen unleashed » flerce attack on that last nine that won the tenth, eleventh, fourteenth and fifteenth hole to square the match and the seventeenth to clinch It. It was one of the most sensational finishes ever seen in @ mateh play con- teat in this country. Before the meeting yesterday it was predicted that Mitchell would outdrive Hagen, but Hagen proved yesterday that under pressuré his drives can measure up with the tee wallops of any player in the world. With practically no difference noticeable in the length of the tee shots and with both men approaching with al) the accuracy of machine gunners spraying @ stationary target, the issue finally narrowed down to supremacy on the greens, and it wa: there that Hagen won out. He ex- hibited the most sensational single shot of the day on the twelfth green when, after Mitchell had laid him a dead stymle he chipped In with a mashie from four feet away and won the hole. Mitchell proved that he belonged among the golfing great of the earth by a strong comeback on the first nine of the afternoon round ufter finishini one down to Hagen at the end of th eighteen holes played in the morning, but even a Mitchell couldn't withstand the Hagen attack once it was let loose in all its fury. Both men had good medal scores in the morning, Hagen getting a 75 and Mitchell a 76. ‘The cards follow: Morning round: HAGEN— Out In ee oo ee oe on on oe an ea an f oa 20 on ae oe we oe oe eo 2 4 GOV.

DETROIT, Mich., Aug. 23 (Associated Press).—With approximately 142 golfers entered, the Western open golf tourna- ment will start to-day over the difficult Oaklafd Hills Country Club course, with Indications that the three days of play will produce-some of the keenest shooting of the season, despite the fact that neither Walter Hagen. British open and Western open title- holder, nor Gene Sarazen, American open and professional champion, are among tne entranta. The entry list is made up primarily of Middle Westerners and Basterners, both amateurs and professionals, The Routh and Far Weat virtually are un- represented. The course ts baked as hard as con- crete, for there has becn no rain worth mentioning for nearly two months, The. hard fairways are corrugated with deep sand pits backed by high bunkers and on some of the holes the traps are so close together that there {s no clear pathway toa green. Several holes have to be played somewhat lke dog legs, although not intentionally of that type. The greens are wonderfully smooth and as fast as lightning, all are rolling, however, making control of putts dim- cult. As a result of the hard ground, the balla get unusually long rolls, .and consequently many an spagrentiy per- fect shot ends up tn the id and pits set to catch bad seconds frequently catch drives. Such conditions mean that with enough luck to escape the pits a score of sev- eral strokes under par is possible, but at the same time many ea good game may go to waste through inability to dodge the hazards, Jock Hutchison of Chicago, Lauri Ayton of Chicago, Pat Doyle of St. Louis, Mike Brady of the local club and Johnny Rogers of Dayton, hooked up in a fivesome yesterday, These five are representative of the better grade of golfers and their scores were: Brady, 69—10, due primarily to half a dozen 20-foot putts; Hutchison, two 72s brought about through some approaches dead to the pin: Ayton, 74; Rogers, 78. Voshell and Hardy Beaten By Ingraham and Jones & a ee Upset Comes When Vets Lose to Youngsters in Four Sets in Doubles. BOSTON, Aug. 23.—Ten teams were left in the field when the last of the matches had been completed yesterday afternoon in the annual men's national champlonship doubles lawn tennis tour- nanient, on the turf courts of the Long- wood Cricket Club at Chestnut Hill. Six of these reached the round before the semi-final, with the remaining four a round behind. In only one case did the logical favorites fail to come through, and that one match was marked by a most unexpected upset. It remained for young W. W. Ingra- ham and Arnold W. Jones of Provi- dence, the former a Harvard freshman, and the latter a first year man at Yale, to furnish this sensation, namely, the defeat of 8. Howard Voshell and Samuc! Hardy of New York, two of the crafti- est veterans In the ranks of the upper flight of players. Ingraham and Jones won by a score of 6—2, 7—5, 2—6, 10—8, in the third round, ‘Big Bill" Tilden and Vincent Rich- ards, present holders of the national doubles championship, and regarded as the pair who will represent this conn- try in the challenge round doubles match of the Davis Cup series at Forest Hills next month, dropped only three games in their cnird round en- counter with Holcomb Ward and Dwight F. Davis, who held the national doubles crowns almost a score-of years ago. The sets went at 6—0, 6—3, 6—0. ‘The most stubbornly fought match of the day occurred in the meeting be- tween Robert und Howard Kinsey of California, Pacific Coast doubles cham- pions, and Willis Davis of California and Harry C. Johnson of Longwood. After trailing almost to the point of defeat the Kinseys at last found them selves and won the match by a score of 3-6, 4—6, 12-10, 6-2, 6—2. DNESDAY, AUGUST 23, T9293.

The entry list shows a fair aprinkling of amateurs, but Chick Bvana fs the only non-professional entry with an in- ternational reputation, The palrings promise many good matches for the galleries, although most of the audience attracting twosomes were set for afternoon play. Jock Hutchison and Mike Brady, teeing off at 10.30 A. M., probably will draw a good crowd. Emmet French, Youngstown, O., who was finalist in the Pittebdgh professional tournament, {s paired with Bob McDonald of Chicago to start at 1.05 P. M. George Sargent of Columbus and Tom McNamara of Siwanoy, N. Y. will begin the rounds at 12.45, while P: Doyle, George Kerri of White Beeches, Haworth, N. George Mo- Lean of Redford, Mich. Jack Kennedy of Tulsa, Okla., and Bob Peebles of Louisville, Ky., are other starters who will play, most of them in the after- noon. Peebles, Kennedy and George Diegel of New Orleans, a brother of Leo Dtegel, are the South's only repre- sentatives. Bobby Jones and the other well known stars not being contestants. The Southerners shoot in the morning. The failure of Hagen to come had caused considerable comment, It was generally expected that he would defend his title, especially since the tournament is being played In his old home town and at the club which entered him when he won last y« He sent word that he was tied up with exhibition matches which he could not afford to cancel. Miller, declares that fewer people have een going insane in this State in the last few months than at any time ince the war, and attributes it to im- Provement in financial and industrial conditions. ‘The report fs on a preliminary sur- ey of the Stato's hospitals for the insane, showing the progress made during the fiscal year ending June 80. It says: “The net increase in patients in netitution efor the year just closed showed a decided reduction from the previous year, although sucky reduc- tion did not become evident until the pring months, and it is still much higher than the average of about 800 or asnumber of years past (1,423 for 1921; 1,155 for 1992), However, the paroles for the past year exceeded those of the previous year by approxi- mately 295 (2,888 in 1921; 8,128 In 1922), reducing the net increase by that much. “The commission's statistical stud- fes indicate the recent great increase in insanity is due chiefly to the eco- nomic depression following the war period with its unwonted financial and industrial activity and attendant men- tal stress and strain ‘The commission reports that addi- tional accommodations fog 1,500 pa- tients have been, or will be, made available within the near future as follows: Marcy Division of the Utica State Hospital, 800; Middletown, 200; Kings Park, 200; Central Islip, 200; Poughkeepsie, 200. The commission is planning the erection of a new hospital on the old Creedmoor rifle range, for which pur- pose an appropriation of $8,000,000 was made available by the last Legis- lature.

BERLIN, Aug, 28.—Jewish pogroms are in progress in Kattowltz, Polish Upper Silesia. Jews are being driven from hotels, pursued through the streets to the station and loaded into trains for Cracow. The people blame Jewish merchants for the present high prices, and the |Rew Polish police make no efforts to | stop the pogroms. The Jews are new- comers for the most part, taking the places of German merchants who left the Polish sections of Upper Silesia during the fighting last year. Civilian mobs are sweeping the city, dragging Jews trom hotels, cafes and their own homes and shops. |The victims are usually stoned and warned to return to Galicia, from which moat of them come. Few are permitted to take any baggage along.

MOSCOW, Aug. 23.—The Soviet Authorities are issuing this week three elaborate albums containing photo- graphs of the Russian crown jewels, which either will be sold or pledged for a loan. These gems, many of them with romantic histories, are es- timated to be worth more than §600,- 000,000. Mme. Gorky, I am informed, is one of the custodians who are investigat ing the possibilities of selling the Jewels abroad. Gov. Goodrich of In- diana was sounded out as to the American market for the gems when he was in Russia, Most of this collection has never been photographed before, nor have lists of it been made public, The crown Itself was usually sup- posed to have been designed for Czar Paul I., but during the Inst few days experts have dixcovered that the plans and designs were made for Catherine UU. She was also the first owner of the emerald-sprinkled breastplates which are included in the collection. The imperial crown bears in the centre a glowing rose diamond of 365 carats, surrounded by Brasillan rubles. Another famous plece in the collec- tion Is the Orloff diamond in the royal sceptre. It is a pure-water gem of 180 carats, According to the authen- tie version of its history given by the authorities, it was first found by a Negro laborer, who was killed by bis fellow-workers for the jewel. The murderers were executed and the diamond sent to an Indian Rajah. It was used as the eye of a Brahamin but was later removed and found its wuy into the hands of the Romanofts. One of the most beautiful pleces is a bouquet of diamonds colored by some secret process never duplicated so that they resemble natural roses. ° Other pieces are the Shan Seal with Persian inscriptions which never have been deciphered and a magnificent dog collar of emeralds and rubies. sti Nrtse Nise JANE SNOW, AUTHOR, DEAD IN CLEVELAND AT 85.
