SOMETIMES FAILURES
ON FLAT DEVELOPS
HURDLING GREATNESS

I a
JACK DEMPSEY IN TRAINING FOR WILLS AT SARANAC.
Br FKANiC G. MKSKE You never can tell about a race boss. ; Oftentimes the fllvs develop Into greatness and the yearling stars be- . com also rans. And sometimes a terrible failure on the flat can be trained into fcTeatness over the hurdles. . A few seasons ago Frederick Johnson had an ugly duckling in his barn
known as Last Man. The then two- '; vear-old son of Cock o' the Walk-
'Traiv Onllt lived ud to his name. He
' '.was "an almost certain tail-ender in every race he ran. V ' But he seemed unashamed of his terJrible foozling and always had a hearty ; pppetite. It grew to such proportion ;that- Johnson, for economic reasons, decided to give him "away. He would '' have sold him if he could but no one wanted to buy him. ' Some months later Mrs. F. Ambrose Clarke, owner of a stable of crack ' steeplechasers, ame into possession of - Last Man. The story has it that she 7 knew the man who had the horse ; that he was up against it for money and she gave him $150 and as a further " .favor to him took off his hands the Last Man horse whdse appetite still . . was keen and most ruinous to a man of little -.means. The trainer for Mrs. Clarke chased
Last Man over the jumps one after- . noon Just to keep him from getting altogether too fat. The next day he sent Last Man through the field again but for-a different reason. For Last Man " in that first outing showed native jumping greatness. Some time later Last Man made his steeplechase debut and won a rich stake. He performed brilliantly in hi; er trials. Whereupon the husband of Mrs. Clarke, who races under his own " colors and is a friendly enemy of his ' wife, bought him for $4,000. Where is Last Man now? Back in the barn, of Frederick John . son the man who gave him away.
Johnson bought him from Ambrose
and at a price said to be in the neigh, borhood of $8,000. . Peccant Example
. Peccant is another example or a
, race horse which failed miserably In . staight work only to rise to greatness
as a hurdler.
This son of Trap Rock-Peccadillo was never much more than a $1,000 selling plater. .His races on the flat were miserable exhibitions. Just at a
. time when it seemed the better plan
. to retire him to a milk wagon, J. W. Bean got him and gave him a few whirls over the jumps. , . . "Peccant, like Last Man, a terrible disappointment on the flat, showed not merely a liking for, but great steeple- , chasing ability right from the start. It was a simple thing to teach him the hurdling trick and a simpler one to race him into greatness within a few , months after his steeplechasing start. Not so long ago Bean sold the one time "absolutely worthless race horse" to the Greentree stable for $15.000 and the stable got a bargoin in its purchase. For the five year old gelding seems certain to win at least double his purchase price before his hurd- . ling days are over. iCcpyrtcIi l2t ny KIbk Featarea Syndicate, lie.) SHOP GRAFTS TEAM BEATS LOGANSPORT
The Richmond Federated Shop Crafts baseball team came through with a decisive victory over the Logansport club at Exhibition park Thursday afternoon with a score of 4 to 2. The game was interesting throughout and as good a game as has been played on that diamond this season. The Logansport team put up a game fight in their endeavor to take a win, but the superior batting of the locals, coupled with the stellar work of Hawekotte, local twirler, was too much for them. The visitors took the lead in the first frame and retained this advantage until the fifth, when the locals tied it up. Logansport came back
again in the sixth only to be evened again m the seventh round. The rest of the game was all Richmond's, for the locals clouted for a two-run lead
and were never headed.

Cactus Keck has shown up well in the two games of the series in which he has been given a chance at the Phillies. When he replaced Luque in the seventh inning Thursday, he stopped the hitting instantly.
Cliff Lee really won both of the games in the double bill Wednesday and took a leading part in the Quaker win on Thursday. He was the only one in the Phillies lineup who cquld touch Luque's offerings before the unlucky seventh and then he didn't stop slugging. It looks as though he will be retained at the initial sack even after Leslie recovers from his recent injury received in Pittsburgh.

EATON, Ohio, July 2S. An average wheat yeild for Twin and Lanier townships, of only about nine bushels per acre, is reported by Frank Gazell of West Alexandria, government crop reporter. This is on a cleaned basis, and it is common opinion that not over 10 bushels at the outside is the
average, as the gram is received at; the elevators. i The wet spring weather wivh the excessive dry spell just when the wheat was in the milk, is blamed most largely. Tobacco and corn crops "could not be better," however, says Mr. Gazell. The prospects for both crops are ideal, weather conditions for them having been nearly perfect. The oats is short both in acreage and in yield of only 10 bushels for the whole county is the prediction of Tracy Aydelotte, of New Hope.

THE ELIMINATION Of Freddy MeLeod in the qualifying rounds of the national open golf championship tourney at Chicago the other day was regretted by everyone who has 'been a follower of the grand old game for years. MeLeod failed to strike a stride good enough to finish under the stroke limit after qualifying for the playing good golf in every open tourney for the last 10 years. , "Wee Freddie" is not & veteran in years, however, so he can be expected to make many more bids for golfing honors despite his recent setback. McLood is 39. He is a native of North Berwick, Scotland. His first notable achievement in golf was in 1908 when he won the national open
for the first time over the Myopia
course. The following year MeLeod made a bid for th-3 pro title only to lose out in the final round to Jim Barnes. His brilliant playing which carried him to a tie for second honors in the national open last year made his showing this year all the more tragic. In addition to the honors won in national
meets McLood has won many section
al titles including the north and south open title. .
MeLeod always has been noted for
his brilliant approach shots and put'
ting. It is interesting to note, in passing, that it was his poor form on the greens that prevented him from qualifying for the recent Skokie event.

EATON, Ohio, July 28. An average yield well in advance of those for the ordinary seed, is shown ly latest reports from fields sown with certified seed last fall. That the value of the certified seed is recognized is proven by the aannounced intention of the farmers to sow an even larger acreage next year. Increased yields ranging from two to nine bushels over the general average for the communities in the lat
est reports. The best yield in the Camden district is 24 bushels grown by A. B. Magaw, while the general average was about 14 bushels. ' The yields secured were as follows: F. W. Saner, Camden, 18 bushels; J. B. Markey, Eaton, 15; E. S. Flory, Camden, 19 1; John Hart, Camden, 16; A. B. Magaw, Camden, 24; Harry Lybrook, Camden, 17; C. C. Lane, Gratis, 21; L. E. Whitesell, 16; Charles Hildebolt, 18. The general average of the cer
tified seed was 184 bushels against a common average of 14T4 bushels. All farmers who have tried the seed will sow from 14 to as much as 95 acre3 next year.
