Louisville, Ky„ May 7.— AU.RJ — Tomorrow I will give you the winner of the Kentucky derby I could do it now, for I already have this information, but I fear the consequences. Too many dreadful things might happen. A revelation at this time would surely rock the universe, and who wants to be afl shaken up like a vanilla frappe? If I blow the whistle now, as we

say over at the club, can you guess what will happen? Well, in the , first place, there'd be no use In running the derby. Col. Matt Whin could just pay off the winner and we d all have to go home. But I'm not quite ready to go home, for Louisville is such a delightful place In the spring. You may get ! hold of. a warm Julep and a cold blonde once in a while, but yon can't blame that on the town —it is likely to happen in Zanesville or Peoria just as easily. But that isn't what I’m getting at. My disclosures would have far deeper significance than just the social side. You remember back Friday, don't you? Well, that holocaust wouldn’t HMd a candle to McLemore Saturday. Factories would shut down. The breadlines would be endless, railroads and steamships would stop running, our entile transportation system would be paralyzed. Hydrants would raise their legs and kick dogs. Peggy Joyce would brand matrimony a snare and a delusion. Dizzy Dean would say “I have nothing to say, gentlemen." So you see 1 can't very well tell you until tomorrow. But enough of this. I imagine you would like to know how I arrived at the winner of tomorrow's derby. Okay. I will tel lyou. Devotion to duty, ears to the ground stuff. If you don’t think it is work to keep your ears to the ground, just try it sometime at Churchill Downs, where the grass is bristly and horses are constantly walking
