CLOSED AT JACKSONVILLE. MEETING AT MONCREIF PARK COMES TO A PROSPEROUS CONCLUSION. Heart of Hvacinth a Surprise in the Chief Race of the Afternoon — Big Meeting Planned for Next Winter. Jacksonville. Fla . April IT.— -Today marked the close r r the inaugural meeting of the Slate Fair Association of Florida. A brilliant gathering assembled, many prominent men in both the social and business life of Jacksonville being present. Speaker Ferris of the lower house was an inter estcd spectator and he viewed the running of a couple of the races from the timers" and judges' stand. Great predictions are being made for Jacksonville as a wring point next winter, and Messrs. Pons and Brown promise to make the plant one of the finest in the country. Today's program comprised seven races, the feature of which was a handicap, at one mile, in which some of the best horses on the grounds started. The result proved a decided surprise, the winner turning up in- the outsider. Heart of Hyacinth, which lieat the McCarren three-year-old. Roseburg II.. in a canter. That Heart of Hyacinth's victory was not a fluke was shown by the time, the mile being run in 1:45*. which marked a new track record. Favorites captured two of the races, the winning choices l eing Camel and Takahdra. The latter was making his first appearance since coming out of winter quarters, and he simply made an exhibition of his opponents, leading at one stage by almost i dozen lengths. Camel's victory came only after a gruelling stretch drive, in which he just did man age to get up In time to nose out Earl's Court. The work of Judge Joseph A. Murphy has made a lit with the local association and at a conference held this morning Mr. Murphy was asked if he would accept the position of presiding judge at Moucreif Park next winter. The judge was agree able. Previous to the races today Dillard Hill purchased Youthful of David Dunlop and the horse ran in his name and interests in the handicap- this afternoon. Mr. Hill also added Malediction to his string. The juice paid for each horse was $500. They will be shipped to Windsor and rest up for the Canadian meetings.

It was merely stated that entries would not he accepted from the latter at the present meeting and this does not affect his standing at other points. Must Secure Canadian Licenses. MUST SECURE CANADIAN LICENSES. Toronto. Ont.. April 17. — The Canadian racing (lulis are likely to adopt a policy of allotting no more than twelve or fifteen stalls to one owner at any track where racing is going on. The stall accommodation at all the tracks has been quite taken up at meetings for the last few years and there has been no lack of horses at any of them, even when two were in operatiou at the same time, as was generally the case with Montreal and Hamilton. This year the usual number of horses will l e provided for. but the clubs intend to see that only such as are actually preparing for racing at each meeting are stabled there. Applications for trainers' licenses with the Jockey t lul. of New York will not be numerous from I an ida this year. In the past those licenses have been valid here, but henceforth licenses to train and ride in Canada will be issued by the Cauadiau Racing Association. Some of the iieople who have de-i -hired th 'ir intention of racing in Canada may rind difficulty in securing the necessary qualifying docu nient. First Premium Takes The Feature.

Colo., April 17. — Obstacles seem to be out of the way and a race meeting is being planned for Denver under the management of John Condon, who has secured a lease on Overland Park. The deal whereby the Interstate Fair Association. which controls the property, turned the park over to Mr. Condon, was made in Chicago ten days ago. There is a preponderance of public sentiment in Denver and throughout the state in favor of racing, aud a summer meeting here conducted along high-class lines and under Condon's management promises to be a winner from the start. It is understood to be Condon's idea to make it a thirty days meeting, but it is possible that it will lie extended to fifty-two days, runnlug it through fair week. September 2 to 7. inclusive. The purses and stakes will be liberal enough, it is believed, to attract many of the licst horses, and those who have discussed the proposition with Mr. Condon say that this is his iuteution. No determined effort was made to force a racing bill through the legislature, which closed hen-April 4. Friends of racing believed that it would be better to leave the situation as it stands. Stockholders of the Interstate Fair Association, which owns Overland Park, ate the most prominent and influential business men of Denver and the state. All things considered, it looks as though Denver will have at least a thirty-days meeting of high order. Racers Nine Or More Years Old That Can Still Travel With Good Speed * • * RACERS NINE OR MORE YEARS OLD THAT CAN STILL TRAVEL WITH GOOD SPEED I, + The "glorious climate" seems to do wonders for horses as it does for mankind and California racing affords a surprising numlier aide to run well at an age ordinarily considered past the limit of usefulness. It is true that they cannot do as well as when in their meridian of speed and fame, but it is a fact that many of the old ones are wonderfully track wise and will not run to their limit, except now and then when in the mood. Such one-time cracks as Proper and Deutschland showed last winter to l e in full possession of their old-time speed, but to induce them to put it forth when in a race was quite another matter. The following table of oldsters of nine or more years is sufficient illustration aud quite an interesting exhibit of well-preserved speed: S. Polk's Proper, b. h. 9. by Preston-pans — Prim II. Year.

WHERE FRENCH BETTING PROFITS GO. April 2 the question of betting on the race courses came up again before the French Chamber of Deputies. M. Ruan. the minister of agriculture, proposing to modify clause 4 in the Act of 1891. which makes it a penal offense to offer to bet with all comers. Nothing definite was decided, and the matter was adjourned until after May is. The sum of $000,000 deducted from the pari-niutuel receipts has been expended in carrying water to thirty-two small towns and villages not provided with waterworks; aud the one per cent, now taken for "special" purposes will continue to be devoted to this object. Meanwhile, there is a strong feeling growing up in France favoring the foundation of a club enclosure on the race courses, where owners and their friends can bet at fixed odds among themselves: but this is opposed in official circles.

Clubhouse, grandstand and enclosure were densely packed. Thousands wine unable to get Into Hue ring to place their wagers. The entail siasjin throughout the afternoon was simply indescribable. It was a local tribute worthy of the occasion . S. C. Hildreth's stable was conspicuously prominent during the afternoon. Meclick. however, at 1 to 2. was the only one of his great trio of horses. including Restlgouehe and Dandelion, that made good, and his victory proved very costly to his owner, as H. G. Bedwell bid him up from $1,100 lo $2,400 before he stopped. Hihlreth retained his stake horse with the customary $r, advance. Mec-Hck is the best horse that has ever started in a selling race on the coast.

SHOCKING DEATH OF G. W. POOLE. George W. Poole took his life at Santa Anita yesterday. Poverty In his old age and despair over legislation threatening the existence of racing as he had known it, are said to have been the factor, that caused it.

"Bishop" Poole, as his intimates called him. was a Keutuckian by birth and was at one time associated with Ed Corrigan and Jim Carlisle in railroad build ing in Colorado, but hail followed the calling of a turfman for over twenty-five years in the course of which he raced many good horses. His last prominence here was when he trained the big stable of M. II. Tiehenor & Co. He was a bluff-hearty man and a Ikxui comrade of Corrigan. Dave Waldo. Tom Hums. Jim Brown. Pat Dunne. Gene Leigh.

Kentucky Derby Horses Looming Up.: Respess' Wintergreen Still Favorite, but Others Are Attracting Attention. KENTUCKY DERBY HORSES LOOMING UP. Respess' Wintergreen Still Favorite, but Others Are Attracting Attention. Louisville. Ky.. April 17. — With conservative judges insisting that the Kentucky Derby is more of an uncertainty than it has been iii many years. the stinhiils of form are analyzing the chances of the various eligibles besides Wintergreen, which still nib s as the lirst choice. Friend Harry, a chest nut colt, by Orlando — Alice P.rand. which belongs to Edward Alvey. is. barring accident, a sure starter in the big event. Tills good colt has been campaigned on the Pacific coast under the direction of Grover Baker and J. C. Fcr-riss. At Baa-tS Anito. on last Tuesday. Friend Harry was sin-ted In a six-aml-oiie-half furlougs dash, in which he linisliiil second to Hoinecrest. a 4 to .1 favorite. He ran will. It was his first start iu a long time. The colt baa never shown at his best on the coast, but now he is rouuding to and competent iriiies express, the belief that he has much more than a eh. inc.- to capture the Derby. It is known that Ibis game colt is receiving careful preparation and it is certain that bv the time lie reaches Church-Ill Downs he will be ready to run a good race. Alvey paid 88.000 for Friend Harry and he purchased Pinkola From W. 11. Flzcr at the same time. This classy performer is iu condition and lie. too. is cxiie. ted to win many races this spring and summer. The news was ipiietly circulated (luring the wei k that Michael Angelo. owned by George Hendrle. and trained at Cumberland Park. Nashville, had beea working in sensational time and seems to hgure as a contender in tbe Derby. The colt iias not heretofore done anything to warrant the suppo-siliin that he is of Derby class. John Walters is training him. Home Respess' Derby candidates. Wintergreen and Boefceastle, have not worked in sensational time thi- week at Churchill Downs, but until Thursday the track was not in condition to justify fast trials However, Winlergreen was sent a mile in 1:45 and Rockcastle in 1:41. It is thought now Wintergreen will be tlie side dependency of the Respess barn, and the majority id' track Sharps still firmly he-box • tint this saw will win. The uucstioii. though, is invariably asked: Can a Dick Welles colt stay the Derby route. Respess only smiles. Meanwhile lie is secure in the belief that the prize is his. V Powers will ride Wintergreen iu the Derby, unless he goes abroad. W. J. Young's Direct and Warficld. eligibles to tin- Derby, are coming along line at Churchill Downs. The first of the week Direct was sent three-quarters in 1:1-1,'. and Wariield in 1:10. Later Direct was sent a mile in a shade les-* than 1:44. Norbit Hynes. the show horse of Churchill Downs, will in-t. it is almost certain, start in the Derby. flic other day be struck himself on the right foreleg and he is slightly lame. His owners. Al Kirbv and F. P.. Respess. hardly expect to have him ready for the big race. Norbit Hynes is a replica of John Carroll. Another one. Loans Greonlwrg. will not go to the post for tin- Derby. This strapping colt looks tin part of a Derby colt until he is asked to work. Then a half mile suits him best. I.on Jones snvs lie will start I/vrdship. a l ay colt, by Dr. Rice — Katie G.. in the Derby. He has beea working well and Jones, who has trained some good ones, says his horse has a chance. The liest work ol" the week among the Derby eli gildes was bv Miami, owned by J. N. Caimleii. president of the Kentucky Racing Association. One of tlie most competent turf critics in the country says of Miami: "If his improvement during the coming fortnight equals that (d' the past three woks I shall expect to see him the contender, if not the winner, of thai Kentucky Derby." At least sixty five horses will be sent from Church ill Downs and Douglas Park to the Lexington race meeting. Pat Civill will race Topsy Robinson. Lady Bsther, Woolstone. Heine. Arrow Swift. Creel and Iwo two year-olds there. Tom P. Hayes will start several, and it is probable that he will send his ] erbv colt. Sir Catcshy. to the post. This son of Sir Dixon is looked upon as a good one and he nsaf cut si in.- figure in the big race. W. If. Fixer, who has McAudrews. a Derbv colt, ami twenty-live other horses in training at Church ill Downs, will have a string of fifteen high-class racers at Lexington. Fizer's rider will be Val liovoll. a crack apprentice, who can climb into the saddle weighing no more than ninety pounds. Fizer savs this lad is the coming star among jockeys. He has him Under a live vcar contract. James Flanuigan has arrived from Oakland, having in charge Charles R. Ellison's Royal Tourist and Jacobite and Colonel W. E. Applegate's Derby colt. Scinproninui. The racers withstood the Journey satisfactorily and look well. Johnny Marklein is m charge of tin- Ellison racers at the Downs. Colonel Apple gate says that in all probability he will start Soicproniuin in the Derby. James I lanaigan. in addition to looking after the Apidegale horses, has a pair of his own— Captain Kennedy, a useful performer, and Aunt Rose. Flan nlgan had a good season on the coast. To show that he is not worrying shout the future he will become a bridegroom next week. His bride-to-be is Miss Julia O'Domicll of South Ix uisville. Entries in the Gentlemen's Cup, which is to bo decided May 18, at Churchill Dow us. are attracting wide attention for the reason that previous winning riders of tlie event are eligible. Secretary Davis lias received several entries. It is certain this race will be a good one. The following owners and tlie nunitier of horses which will be raced by tliem at Churchill Dow lis. will ship from California April 20 and arrive here before April 25: Tom Shaw. ::: Mike Daly. 4: Bishop Coolc. 1: James GriHin. 0: James (lass. 4: W.

One of the most important of the early English race meeting" comes off at Epsom Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. Two of the great handicaps of the fear, the Great Metropolitan at two miles ami a quarter and the City ami Suburban at a mile and a quarter, are the special features. Only one American hois.-. DfauM Ken. is in the Great Metro politan and jointly with tin- English horse. Glacis, has been given the top weight of 128 pounds, litis not likely to start. The City and Suburban presents a different aspect in respect to possible Interest for Americans. Ballot is top weight at 1S1 pounds and since he has ben hacked to some extent, mav now be considered a probable starter. Other Americans in tin- race are tin- unbeaten Priscillian. 120 pounds: the Two Thousand winner. Norman 111.. 117 pounds, and Mr. Whitney's Delirium, llo pounds. Last year De.-n Swift won tin- city and Suburban, carrying 122 pounds. This vcar lie was given 128 pounds and at latest advices was favorite ill the snte-poot betting at 7 to 1. Considering that he is eight years old. it would he a wonderful thing if he should even be placed. other slake races of the meeting in which Ann! ican horses are entered are the Westminster Plate-, Great Surrey Handicap. Nork Plate and Hyde Park Plate. Messrs. Keeiie. Belmont and Whitney an- ail well represented and the many American lovers of racing now in London are likely to have their patriotism ardently appealed to and. let us hope lo their financial betterment. The latest available betting, that of April ('.. presented the following quotations against the earliest fancied candidates, with tin- probability that radical changes may have taken place by this time: The City and Suburban.

He will be used as a hunter. \t the l.oiigchainps (Paris! course. April 4, the gate money was 834.000 and the turnover at the pari niutiiei 1548.090, this being #HKi.0O0 more than on the corresponding day last year. A ten-day race meeting under the auspices of the Oklahoma .Hockey Club began at L-ivvton. okla.. yesterday. More than BK horses from Texas and Oklahoma are there for the meeting. It is reported that Pat Mclnerny. the steepbehas-iockey. died recently in Newark. N. J. For several seasons Mclnerny rode the J. W. Colt and Harriott MeCleiinan 'chasers with fair success. At the Johannesburg Turf Club meeting recently W. Clements, the lightweight jockey, who rode in England last season, steered four of the six si Inner J and was second in each of the others. Charles Casey, the trainer of Aimee C. and Fore, has arranged to race on the metropolitan courses this season. A few years back the fast French marc. Ginnette, raced well while trained by Casey. Frank Doss, successful for many years on the turf as Jockey, owner and trainer, has decided to retire from racing and will go into busin-ss in San 1'r.in Cisco until tin- prospects for the sport are brighter. There are lifty-nine horses left in the Austrian Derby, and of these fifteen belong to German owners, inclusive of fervor. Stossvogel and Gutfrcnnil. The last-named is iu England in S. Darling's string at Beckhai.iptou. Fn-d Archer, the great English jockey, once made a shrewd retort to a fair owner who asked him wiiv he did not. come out to win his race earier. instead of being lieaten: "Well, my lady. I couldn't come without tlie horse." Robert Sievier's Winning Post, a weekly sporting paper, lauds trainer Joyner as an excellent man iu his business. It says training as be dees for gentlemen who run their horses on truly sporting lines lie is a welcome addition to the English turf. Frank Gardner brought out his good three-year-old i(dt. Statesman. Thursday and Worked him along smartly for seven furlongs in 1:32}. This is the best move he has shown this season and it was particularly impressive, from the manner of its accomplishment. James Rowe is beginning to permit tlie Keeiie string to step along a bit freely. Thursday the two-year-Olds Herdsman. Grassniere, Sweep. Black Gnat. Degree. Plashing and Hibernica. after a use ful canter, were worked together for three furlongs in l.'li seconds. Celt, Casque. Turncoat. Maskette.

Reidmoore. which was the breadwinner for the stable last sea-» n. looks more like a two-year old than a six-year-old. He has taken on a lot of weight, which will give bis trainer something to work on. Al Busch and Jim Parkinson, which did not do particularly well as two-year-olds last summer, have developed into fine-looking three-year-olds, having crown and filled out. This pair will be liberally entered in the events for three year-olds all through the Canadian circuit. Old Holscher. which went wrong last fall, has wintered wonderfully well and will be once more sent to the races. Since bringing the horses from Barrie to Toronto Mr. Shields has added three to his string in W. I. Hindi. Occidental and Al Herford. W. I. Hinch is a fair sort of a selling plater and will be useful iu overnight purses. The Ally. Occidental, ran some good races as a two-year-old last season aud should show improvement this year. This filly is one of the best-bred things that has ever come to Canada, being by Montana out of the mare Lisanne. Al Herford is a likely-looking two-year-old. being well set up, with plenty of bone. He should lie a weight-carrier from the way he is coupled and will take some beating. Al Herford is by Locohatchee out of the Ware Cieogne. which has dropped some great foals. William Shields will run a public stable this season and will have some good horses to train. He has now four horses for Robert Pavies under his rare, including two platers, a two year-old and the jumper. Capstan. The two year old is an especially good-looking province-bred. The platers are both uood lookers and showed some speed as two-year-olds last fall. They are both by Orine Shore. Several American owners have written asking Mr. Shields to take some of their horses so that he will probably have one of the largest strings at the track this year. Truemaii. who had a bad fall last war which kept him from doing as good work in the saddle as he was capable of k ing. will ride for the stable. The Reformation Of Literature.
