Oct. 12.-9ltl-' blight, balmy Heather, a record-breaking- crowd and one of the moat attractive cards offered at laurel Park to-day proved a magnet to the racegolng public, and those who "attended enjoyed a day of excellent sport. Favorites fared well, four betas; home first, while the remaining- three on the card, which were well backed, finished first. ,- The feature race of the day the fourth event proved a walkover for 8chorrsJ Frog- Legs. He ran ant impressive race, coming- from the- rear and beating out the favorite. Sprite, who, by the way. had all chances ruined by bleeding. As usual. Frog Legs made his great stretch drive, the same as he does In all bis races, and won going- away. Th Chevr Chase Steenlechass brought four horses to the barrier In the prettiest race seen here In many a day. For nearly two miles they raced neck and neck, but the superior horsemanship shown by his rider. Mr. Kerr, was re sponsible for Shannon River's defeat. Back Bar -Wins Again. Hedge made a runaway affair of the third event, winning by a half dosen lengths; while Back Bar. who has won three consecutive times, came back to day and won at a nice price. Hedge made a new track record for the mile and a sixteenth. Muff was the medium of the public's choice In the fifth race, but was beaten bv Henry Hutchinson and Knight Deck. The latter, although left at the post, was only beaten by a nose. The card for Monday Is an attractive one. and many of the best horses at the track are scheduled to run.

The lord "of the Afrksata Jtingles aUtreww talned hU proud tHJaT-Tong enbiistftr" be was uncrowned Tuesday astat Lextes; ton by an Amaricmnlkred trotter, bora amid the bleak hllla of. Kew'Knaland. and who must bo ratstt for years to come the highest and .tr4jaft-rp of his breed. It Is hard .for one. to realise the' Sight of speed this swerlesa trotter posseaies, and especially. Is -It hard to understand the mysterious power with which he is endowed, to carry his marvelous flight of speed at an artificial -gait a full mile. It Is .only when one makes close anal ysis of Uhlan's record-breaking mite on Tuesday that one comes anywhere near an appreciation of his greatness. He trotted the first quarter of his mile In thirty seconds flat. He trotted the first half of his mile In fifty-nine seconds flat, a second less than a minute, and was at the three-quarters mile pole la 1:28. With out at falter in his stride he swung into the stretch and came home, as no trotter ever yet came home. In I.M. Time was when such an accomplishment would have electrified the civilised world; but so used hss the civilised world become to the marvelous feats of the American light harness horse that scarcely a thrill lr felt nowadays as he marches day by day to stilt greater achievements. Dur ing the past week, between wXOOO and 0.000 people have dally assembled to see the worlds series played, and hundreds of thousands have assembled to get the results as they- came hot from the wire. Possibly' 10.000 people were present to witness this latest champion of .the light harness creed a breed purely American set a world's record. Compared with the achievement of Uhlau, In Import ance, the worlds series and Its results, it seems to us. sink Into Insignificance. have drifted Into new customs, new forms of sport, and as a people we mature new Ideals. In 189, when Flora Temple trotted a mile In I.lMi at Kala mazoo, the nation was electrified. "We have a distinct remembrance of the event. For weeks It oershadowed all other eepts, although the entire coun try was In a state of ferment oer an approaching civil tragedy the like of which never before afflicted a free people. Baseball, at this period, was the sport of schoolboys, and he who would have predicted that In a half a century henc It would dominate all other nattonal sports, attract middle aged and aged people, as well as the young, and excite them to the point of frenzy: If one had said fifty years ago that the day would come when a President and a vice Pres ident would honor a game of baseball with their presence, that a President would open the season's series by for mally pitching the first ball; that thoil nanus or American citizens wouia act like candidates for the lunatic asylum oer a lot of husky mutts playing pro fessional baseball that person would have been unanimously voted a chat tering Idiot. Even sporting editors, nowadays, are selected almost solely because of their technical knowledge of baseball; and. In too many cases, they profess no other knowledge and desire none. The expense accounts of the sporting departments of dally newspapers have been quadrupled within the past ten years on account of baseball, and the managers of baseball clubs, who are winning money as easily ss If they were running a government mint, cunningly work the daily press to the limit without the expenditure of a single dollar. No other money making sport Invented by man gets as much free advertising as does baseball And managing editors curse, but bear It. and owners of newspapers swear be cause of It but still order the bills O. K.'d. We tip our hat to the base ball magnates: they are the genuine and only Napoleonic financiers In, the entire realm of finance. They milk the cow while the newspaper publishers hold the pall. They skim the cream from the milk and get the butter, and the newspaper publishers get what Is left one or two cents per copy for their paper. High class turf writers men who can. without being told distinguish the dif ference between a horse and a goat, and who know B from a bull's foot. have almost disappeared from the dhlly press of the "effete" East. Callow young men. graduates of the high school. are detailed to do turf reporting a busi ness requiring fsr more technical knowl edge than the game of baseball with the result that the 'reporter and his paper are made to appear ridiculously light in the eyea of horsemen. We venture to state that If either Uhlan, who broke a world's record at Lexington on Tues day, or Sotemla." who lowered the four- mile running record Monday, at Louis vllle. to 7:10 4-5. had performed their mar' velous feat at Washington, some local sporting editor would have grudgingly given It. possibly a ISO word description. and a onellne head, as a column1 or two of space was needed for a story as to how the Brightwood team chased the Podunknlne off the face of the West' era 'Hemisphere.' We seek no hutrrel with lovers of baseball, or with, lover of any other clea,n. manly, sport. But we do maintain that baseball receives more than Its share of attention' from the press; and all really sane, sportcaen hope that.

The track holding out the best Inducements shall be awarded the hold ins of the race. Seventh. On December 2, 1912. a stake holder shall be selected who has no financial Interest In any colt entered, nor shall he thereafter hold any Interest whatever In any colt entered. If the pertinent question should be ask ed. Why call the stakes The Washing Herald Two-year-old Trottlnaj Stakes, the answer Is that no Waehlngtoir paper, thus far. has done as much to promote these stakes as The Herald. The reason hy Mr. D. J. McCarthy's place of busi ness has been selected, at which the owners of candidates shell meet for Ini tial action. Is because the scheme of a two-year-old stake race originated" with him, and he has ever since been a rime factor In the matter. The same condi tions printed to-day may be applied to foals born In 1912. and who wilt be eli gible for the stakes of 1914. The owners of 1912 foals are especially enthusiastic over the proposition, and It now looks as if there would be an even dozen of 1912 foal owner's who will be entrants. It cannot be stated now the number of 1911 foals that will be entered Decem ber 2, 1912. It should be borne In mind that all foals of racehorse" blood date In the matter of age from January L so that every foal born In 1911 is, according to turf law. two years of age January L 1912. All foals born in 1912 will be two years old January 1, 1311. In the near future we shall publish a list of owners of foals born In 1911. and In 1912 who have already expressed a desire to enter In stake races. The value of stake races to owners of highly-bred trotting foals need no elaborate argument. The fact that t hey are entered In stakes Increases their value Immediately, and the most Inter esting feature-of the subject Is that no colt owner can say which youngster will win until the race Is finished. It should have been added in the conditions that the stake will be divided Into four parts, the colt finishing fourth setting 10 per cent or the purse.
