is Interested In what horto will win the
great race at Newmarket. In the mean
time the heroine gives the hero a tip
that "The 'Whip" will win and he plunges
heavily with the -bookmakera. .
The villain now seea that the only thing
to do is to render it impossible for the

But the train is pursued by an automo

The .villain then decides to have the
jockey who will ride "The 'Whip-' ar
rested just as the race ls about to start.
Jie does this, but' tho sporting spirit of
tho crowd at Newmarket stands In the
way, and the Jockey is dragged away
from the detectives and thrown on the
horso. He wins the race and makes a
rich man out of the young lord who as

the fraudulent marrlase stands between

They come to sing, not to speak, how
ever, and the material In which their
voices are heurd Is taken from tho wealth
of folk songs that the British people have
produced. Much ran be said In praise of
these folk songs.
The beautiful songs of England are
dying rapidly from the Hps of the people,
Happily, patient collectors have rescued
them when they were on the point of
extinction. Homo of these sung by tho
Misses Fuller have barely been rescued,
and sometimes only one old peasant could
be found who remembered the words
Mrs. Fuller, In Iter little English village,
sang them and brought up her daughters
to sing them. Theso girls are natural
artists, their methods fit their songH en
tirely, they sing as simply as the peas
ants sing. They have youth, freshness
and Joy in their work .
