Can You Beat This One— Big Smoke Pictured as Stowing Up Submarine?

CHICAGO, June 2.—Sometimes we have to go away from home to find the news. The fqllowing was recently pub-' Halted in the boxing column of the Lon-

don Town Topics:

Would you beUev* It? There** a paper published In Chicago, with a circulation among the colored gentry of that city, which gives the world the story that the late unrespected Jack Johnson is a war hero of the oldest type. I* is news to us here in poor old London, where we never hear anything appertaining to the war except the scarcity of bread, and, for the information of my readers, I have clipped the part in full: “Jack Johnson. Januanr 15, with passports signed by King George of England, left Barcelona by way of France and England, arrived at Archangel February 3, crossed through Russia into Roumania and secured signatures for his World’s Advertising Corporation. Crossing through Italy he embarked for the return journey, and was captured by an Austrian submarine. Jack, singlehanded, subdued the Austrian captain and blew up the submarine, and was rescued by a Spanish freighter after drifting three days, and was landed at

a^panlsh

port.’

MORE WELL-BRED COLTS AT FAIR GROUND THAN HAVE EVER BEFORE BEEN SEEN ON NORTHERN TRACK

With more horses and more good horses and more bad weather than at any time In the history of the Indianapolis track, spring training is progressing merrily between showers and cold waves. Although several stables have already been shipped to racing points, Superintendent Taylor figures out Just 29S horses stabled on the grounds. It might also be said that there are more well bred colts being educated at the fair ground than have ever been seen on a northern track and about every one of the numerous stables can boast one or more by Peter the Great. Lon McDonald intended to give his aged horses some fast work yesterday

Chan made a brilliant finish last fall with Daisy Todd, by winning four races at the Macon, Ga., meeting. Mettler has Miss Silver Todd headed for a big bunch of half-mile stakes, commencing on the Michigan circuit in a few weeks and ending on the Ohio circuit with an idea that the big Lexington meet will make a good place to

finish.

In about ten days Chan expects to have Bingen Silk, 2:07)*, back to his stable. This four-year-old has been

Alcyone, and both are bred to go the route. The Des Moines trotting enthusiast, L. L. Cassidy, ran down from Iowa this week to watch the work of a couple he has In Mart Wilson’s stable. One is Ruby Aubrey, by Captain Aubrey (2:tr7%), that Wilson marked in 2:17 last year as a two-year-old. and the other is The Militant, by the same sire, which has a three-year-old record of 2:18)4.

The Missouri state tournament, which Is Just closing at St. Louis, attracted a fairly representative field, composed largely of players not eligible for service, and it loqks as If most of the western state championships will be played, but that the leading players of the younger brigade will be missing.
