There are eviulently hut few veop1u ill
Ouuiuha who realize the full import of the
great trotting meeting held at the new fair
grounds a week ago. There are few who
have the faintest Idea of the value of this
meeting as an aulvertlseinciut for Ounahuas
matchless track , and fewer athhl who have
the slightest conception of the marveIouu
flour made. It I should assert , without
first giving the figures , that in the history
of flue light huarneas turf there is nothing to
be compared with what the 1)001)10 uvitnesseul
lucre a week ago , there are a good many
peopie. no doubt , who would think that I
was talking through my hat. lint I ani
not. Taking into consideration that the
seconul week In Juno L ostremely early for
the trotters and iatcors to le at anything
like their best form , and that Omaha's track
Is now and not yet suspectiblo to its chiuuac
of speed , the achievements of the meeting
were truly remarkable. For tuistance , on
Tuesday , the opening day , there were four-
: teeuu hueatui trotted and pacc4 , with an
average of 2t : 6-I I ; on Wednesday there
were fifteen huats. with an average of 2:1T :
11-15 ; eu Fri 'ay there were fifteen heats.

luorseunen and lovers of great racing. think
of it ; sixty-one heats In a four ilay's session ,

meeting ; iu there an individual who can

future meetings , to take all the fntlunceuu
Into consideration which brought about this
u great record for their track. Surely it was
not alone the wonderful ability of the differ-
cut horses , who worked here. for vhiiht their
L preformanco was extremely huigh-chass and
Pro-eminently satisfactory. It must. be ac-
Unowhodgcil that there wasn't a John If.
Gentry or an Azoto among the whole con-
gregntioo. Still. as a whole , it was a high
class lot , and the ohul cauuupaigners would
hare host no cast In the company. Largely
contributing to the wooderful facts above
noted was the superlative condition of
the track. Ever since It hiss been in the
hands of J. Scott McCoy It has been steadily
improving. until today it rivals the oldest
nut ! best trotting tracks in the United States.
McCoy is an old reinsnian , trainer and
owner of large aluul varied experience. Ho has

Sandy Griswold Is a man whose friendshIp
I enjoy. whose reputatIon as a conscIentioUs.
honeat chronIcler of happenings I heartIly
endorse. as an able , fair and Impartial crItic
I much admIre , but it Is a delusion to pre-
Shinto that a man can always he correct.
especially it lie has not had flue opLortuflitY
of personal observation , and thIs affords me
a chance. just this once. to differ with the
sporting sage of the great northwest upon a
little matter that might otherwise escape
hits attention.
In a recent Issue of The Omaha Bee , whose
sportiPg columns are so ably looked after
by Mr. Griswold , the following appears
anent the recent sI-round bout between
Jack Everhart anti Young Griffo :
"It was one of those split-the-money-bath-
on-thuclr-feet I Imited-rounul affairs. whIch
club managers will persIst In makIng in
favor of skin gamblers. Of course they
were both there , hut the boy with the 'cauhl-
flower ear' went round the tuopical repre-
sentatlre hike a canine In pursuIt of hIs
caudil appenulage. "
Which I take to mean that Grit punched
tIme indomitable Jack all over the - shop.
Now thuls is all wrong. for the consensus of
opinion anuorig thosa who witnessed the go
was that the caullllower.earcd Antipodean
was extremely lucky that the route waa not
longer thaum six rounds. The gent from
Louisiana rubbed some of the luster off his
opp000lut's reputation by demonstrating that
it uioesui't take an especlahly clever man to
hand on hIm. Everhiart makes no preten-
atone to beIng a hhuniteul-round boxer , laut It
uliuhn't take longer than six three-minute
ineetiuig'4 for him to convInce Grhfto that ho
Is a pugIlistic "lalhah. " Ills offer to macct
the Australian lum a bout ot twenty rounds
has since been thankfully declined ,
WIth tbeso few remarks. Sandy , I remain ,
to t1uote the vords of tlue hunmuiortal John L. ,
"your warm and personal frIend , etc. , etc. "
The above I clip rrnni Sam AustIn's department -

l'enuuuuyhvanta has hecit paying a lIttle more
attention tlmuuiu uisual to Its freshman arid at
ColuruubIa lnt year's victory has ereatel , a
general revival of enthusiasm In aquatir.uc.
Thue hhiirvard freshmen tiara already haul an
extraordinary victory over the oIlier class
crews and If they don't go over the line lirat
is'ill push the whiner hsu-tl. At Cornell
"Courtney's babies" receive almost as mmmcli
attention from time coach as the 'varsity.
A Cornell freshman crete has never iot a
race , nun ! "never" Is a big word.
Hut walt for the 'varsity , No ouevhuo
has not followetl the mazes an.i hntrtcacles
of college dIplomacy anti athletic rupttons
can realize the Intense Interest wrapped up
in flint race. Iharrarti has broken away

new poultion In the aquatic world mnust
vin. WIth rennsvlvaota , after Its 101mg
serIes of defeats , it will be a struggle for
existence. Columbia Is still elated with
lant year's victory and Is eager for continued -
tinued honors. Cornell hooks bai'k on
seventeen uninterrupted victories and feels
that last year's first defeat must be wiped
oui t ,
Who will be the winner ? Pennsylvania
has haul all kInds of hard luck , but has
plenty of pluck , No doubt it will try to
push Harvard into last place harvard
is luandicapped by a ractIIatlmmm POlICY lum
aouatics and coostant chiangc.s in Its coach ,
They have flume material , however , and are
rowing In good form , but the odds are
against her for first place. Columbia has
her' old crew of last year alciost to a man :
they poll a powerful stroke and are in
splendid form , with plenty of brawn behind
tIme oars. They have the heavIest crew of
the foir , whIle Cornell has the lIghtest.
Perhaps the greatest element of Courtney's
success is the thorough training his men
get In the freshman shell , and they always
row in perfect form. The courtney stroke
has established the wOrld's record in eights
for Cornell for the mile anti a half aod
three-mile courses , and whether it Is adaptable -
able to a four-mile race v1Il be shown to
this regatta. If the water Is hear ) ' Column-
bla's weight will tell agaInst a lighter crew.
but It will be a race as Is a race from the
start to the finIsh.
But there is sometbing more to come of
all this. There is going to be an Inter-
colhegiate rega'ta , an Arumertean henley. cut-
tabhIshett before the men In the freshnuaum
