AMSDEN SOLVED BAD-QUESTION

Western Horseman Says Local Man Has Two Fine Horses. BOTH ARE NOTED ANIMALS. ORATORIO HAS A MARK OF 2:13 AND PRINCE DIRECT TRAVELED A MILE IN 2:07 BOTH OF GOOD FAMILY. A a article which appears in the souvenir number of the Western Horseman, -will be of especial interest to horsemen of Wayne county. This article reads as follows: The selection of stallions for a stock fariw is a momentous question. It often happens that one may be secured that will fill all requirements, but to secure two that will come up to expectations is another task. George Amsden of Richmond, Ind., took upon himself this undertaking and secured a pair that are proving their worth as sires of speed and individuality. His selection of Oratorio, 2:13 and Prince Direct. 2:07, was a stroke of good judgment and business polioy. A glance at the breeding of each will suffice to account in part for the showing they are making in the stud. Oratorio is by Wilkes Roy, 2.24V&. the best bred son of George Wilkes, as well as a most extraordinary progenitor of uniform and extreme speed. His first dam is Canaonet, hy Dictator; second dam Fugue, 2:1914, by King Rene; third dam a Jouble producing daughter of George Wilkes and fourth dam a trlpple producer by Clark's Chief Sit. Individually he Is all that one could desire, etands 1.5.3 hands high, with exceptional conformation and bone. He is tho sire of the world's champion pacing mare, Ecstatic, 2:014 : Gordon Prince, 2:0514, who holds the world's record for the fastest mile made by n n absolutely green horse; Alice Napes, 2:064 and Ivan 11., 2:09ft. Which, gives him an enviable position among the sires of early extreme Bpecd. Prince Direct. Prince. Direct, stable companion of Oratorio, comes of one of those truly trotting horse families which have made turf history replete with their records. No other family stands out more prominently than do the Directs. Prince Direct is the son of Direct, 2:05ft, the sire of Directly, 2:03ft; Bonnie Direct (4), 2:05ft; Prince Direct, 2:07; Trlbly Direct, 2:08ft-,! Direct Biew, 2:08; What is It, 2:11; Go Direct, 2:11ft i Dephne Direct (3), 2:11ft; Directing 2:14ft; Ed 13. Toung (4). 2:111,4; Miss Margaret (3), 2:11ft; I Direct, 2:12ft; Miss Beatrice (4), 2:131,4; Direct Fire (t), 2:14ft; Arthur L., 2:15 and many others. I hi roc Prince, the sire of tho dam of Prince Direct is the son of Messenger Direct and has an enviable reputation as the sire of the dams of fast performers. Oregon Pathfinder, sire of the second dam of Prince Direct is the son of Morrill ;:80, and is the sire of the dams, Alto, 2:093.i and Pathnumt, I:0ij. Prrice Direct is a race hoist' pure and simple. He holds the world's if -o-fessional. team pacing record (with Direct Hal, 2:05Vs";, world's amateur pacing team record ( with Morningstar 2:06); world's team record, half mile dash (with Hontas Crooke, 2:07ft); "world's two heat race record to wagon hy pacing stallion, 2: 07 94 and 2:09ft; matinee record 2:07:J4.

THE WAY IN WHICH HUGHIE JENNINGS SIZES UP AMERICAN LEAGUE TEAMS

Cleveland "The Naps are always up in the race, and make trouble when least expected."

Good Work Fop Wilson. Wilson made a splendid record in foul goal throwing, making seventeen out of twenty-five. The yellow and whites are straining every nerve to get their men classified in track work, as the season is of un certain length. This classification can be explained best by taking the run ning high jump as an example. Four feet entitled the jumper to one point and by jumping four feet four inches he secured an additional point. Each man's total will be added to his color faction's total and the side which has the most points when the contests cease will win. It adds interest to the competition for the men to know that they will remain on the same color side for the entire college course. This system that Coach Vail has in troduced is answering the nuestion.

The Crescents depend on "Red" Marine to slip enough goals by Snaveley to win the uame. while the collar clerks put their hopes of victory uu their superb team play and excellent defense. The leadership ot the league depends on this game. The Krones and Empires will fight it out for the leadership of the second division.

The ambitions Freshmen were handed a lemon Saturday by the other Earlham men in u soccer game, getting the short end of a 2 to 1 score. Tho 1911 team scored first when Yotaw shot a pretty goal about tho middle of the first half but Hawkins evened up the score a little later and the first period ended 1 to 1. Reid field was covered with snow and while the Freshmen pressed hard the whole game they could not shoot accurately enough to evade goal keeper Wright, who made many pretty saves. A minute before time was up Pearson, J. Jones and Hawkins carried the ball down the field by some good passing ami Hawkins won the game by a quick shoot from Jones' pass.

I uiusiaais ui una ciiv aie nuw cuuaiifiiL that the city has as fast a polo team as any city in the state and the fact that ti e team defeated the srong Richmond aggregation, administering the second defeat that team lias suffered this season tends to substantiate this belief. Ever since a team has been maintained here it has been recognized that the weak soot was in the goal tender, but ever since the signing of Burick. of Marion. O.. this weakness has disappeared. Burick. in his first game, won the confidence of the fans and they arthigh in praise f his work. All the other members are strong in their positions and games in the future are expected to show a far different result than the majority of the past. The entire team is a little lisht. but what it lacks in weight is made up in swiftness. The reappearance of Richmond in this city will undoubtedly draw a crowd as large as the coliseum will accommodate. INTEREST IS TAKEN Many Richmond People Will Attend the Lackey Horse Sales.

FORMERLY HE WAS A SPHYNX, BUT NOW HE DASHES OFF FREQUENT BULLETINS TAFT'S METHODS NEW TO POLITICS. Washington, Feb. 21. The presidential candidacy of Secretary Taft has some distinctive features that are causing widespread and interesting comment. Among these characteristics the following are creating a vast dr-al cf tall;: i 1. Tho veterans in the political game say they never have known bej fore of an instance where an aspirant 'for the presidency has openly gone "gunning after the nomination. 2. The enormous outlay of money used in carrying on the Taft'propaganda is said to be far in excess of the expenditures of any former candidate for a presidential nomination. Secretary Taft believes in publicity and his campaign is being run on the publicity plan. It is a new departure from the old-time rule of politics. He is overturning all of the conventional methods of the political generals to sit up and rub their eyes in astonishment. Campaign Breaks Record. There never has been a political campaign that was run so completely undr the full glare of the limelight. With two headquarters going at a full hea"d of steam one at Columbus and one at the national capital and with an army of press agents thronging the avenues of publicity, the war secretary's candidacy has become known far and wide for it? publicity features. The secretary himself has pursued an anomalous course.
