He Is atlll a man of eoiishleralde money, while Gar rison Is not "there" quite so strong. Hloau bets from the ground now, and the "Snap- per" puts down the wagers. One of the hobbles of the racing set on the fair weath er mornings since the opening of the rac ing herealMiuta Is to repair' to the local Imaclmll park, where a fantastic gniue of bnseball ensues. Garrison Is generally the pitcher on one side, with little Nloan not ing na his catcher. It's a unique laittery, to be sure, to all conversant with past sporting chronicles. Talking of the Jockeys recalls the fact «vf Miller l*elng once again the howling favorite of Uie hour. Ilia form Is simply marvelous, loiat week he rode four winners and a second out of five mounts, one of them ehlng a 10 to 1 prop- o*ltlon. The very next afternoon he brought home two 19 to 1 shot winners out of three mounts. Undoubtedly, Miller will finish out the year hearing the laurels • ml the reputation of la-lug the grandest lightweight rider we have seen since the aforementioned "Tt»d'' Hloau worked ou the metropolitan circuit.

(Copyright, 1906, by Ilearst News Service.) Saratoga. N. Y„ Aug. 37.-Wltb the Sara toga cup a thing of the past, the world of racing la Just now. all ears and eyes for the annual running of America's richest race for J-year-old thoroughbreds—the Futurity. Thla fatuous fixture Is down for decision ou tin; occasion of the Inauguration of the autumn term of racing at Hheepshead Bay, L. 1., next Haturday, 8cptetnl»cr 1. Its estimated gross value Is $66,000—n regal fortune. The owner of the colt, or filly to first breast tbe Judges will take down not far from $3C,000. Much Is horse racing in these twomlng'day* of American prosperity. Home critics say thla Futurity la the blggeat thing In the year's racing calendar, not, to much bees use of Its euornions value, but because the beat sort of racing sentiment la wrought up when n Futurity Is run, and by far tbe Itcst class attendance of the season graces the lawns nnd fills tbe stands down at ftower-liedcckcd Hheepshead Bay as.the field of equine (tables canters down to the post In the mellow autumn sunshine. Ou next Haturday probably 40,000 persons will ac claim the Futurity winner, while tbe turn over of money on tbe outcome of the con test generally runs up dote to a million dollars. Before taking up the complexion of the field of probable starters, It may be well to understand Just bow a horse race like the Futurity Is mndc to be worth ao colossal a sum of money. In the Brat place. It la run out of the Futurity course, which Is a little over three-quarters of a mile In length—a few yards. This course Is a "chute" which runs like n stove-pipe with an "elbow' It. The horaea are started away op tbe i Ing grounds almost out of eyesight, the horaea rnunlng <m .* straightaway right to the lower end of tne grandstand. There the "elbow" la encountered nnd herd It Is nany a Futurity haa been won and lost In years gone , by, for the frout runner* come with such a momentum that they oftentimes bolt away up to the outer rail ing nnd before they can recover the lost territory the onconiera sneak In on tbe rill nnd get home through the short stretch to a flukey victory. It Is for 2-year-olds—colta, fillies and getdfngs—as aforementioned. Kay, away back In 1902 a breeder down In Ken tucky haa In hla atnd a fine blooded sire and n patrfcsn brood mnre. He mates them and at the same time enters tbe expected pro geny In the Futurity of 1901. < Breeders Gat 8hara« No matter who wins the coming thor oughbred when the Futurity of three years later la run. the breeder and nominator Is entitled to aonie of the prlxe money In caae the youngster wins the big race. Thla Is done to encourage scientific breeding. Colts entry 122 pounds and fillies 119 pounds. Of course there are penalties. For Instance, the winner of tbe Haratoga special would lie penalised alx pounda when he came to run In the Futurity. Horaea which had never won a race are allowed three pounds. It costs about $49 to enter up a horse, while there are several assessments at dif ferent periods the owner haa to pay. fact. If the horse starts It means an outlay of over $400, but thla Investment la worth the chance with $36,000 standing aa the re ward of success. I’rohohly 90 owners contribute In entry fee* $36,000. The Coney Island Jockey Club gives $10,000. „ This year the Messrs. J. R. and F. P. Keene, who own Castleton Farm In Ken tucky, and have long been the foremoat figures on the metropolitan turf, qecra to hove the best chance of taking duwn the 1906 Futurity, for the firm haa three first- class eligible* lu point for the atruggle, any one ot which figures out an excellent chance of winning. Grimaldi, a non of Commando, Ballot, a son‘of Voter, the latter the fast est sprinter ever»known to the turf; Peter Pan, another Commando, and a corking filly from the loins, of Disguise, n horse which represented the Keenea with success In England five years ngo, named l*npo Joan, are the Castletoa color bearers. Gri- rpaldl comes In without penalties ami baa worked very fast, while I'eter Pan Is tbe biggest and most rugged 2 year-old In train Ing. The Raineys, of Cleveland, Ohio, who recently bet $40,000 to win $22,000 on Henallp, are unfortunate In not haring Horace K. ready to race. Horaea 8. It Out. This promising colt split hit hoof ten days ngo and la now out of training. But tbe dia< appointing lie Mund will represent them as a forlorn hope. August Delniont h&x hut a moderate colt lu Okenlte, but Woodford Clay, of Kentucky, haa n wonder In Ken tucky Bean, a slashing eon of Ktar Shoot. The Hltcheoek-Madden stable has In Com vlllc. This colt Is • lot tietter than hi* last race showed where he ran from a very had start, and a very Important thing In connection herewith la the fact that "Mar velous Miller" will ride Convllle. I waa In formed of this by John E. Madden himself, tbe Jockey to get $1,000, win or lose. Oran, from the Newcastle stable, nnd Water Pearl, the great Watercress youngster, who waa hailed na the champion until a month ago, when he went lame, will also have many friend*. At thla time It looks like Keene to me. Just before alslng up the probable field on paper, It may be well to remember that the flrat Futurity waa run In 189.1, when a Western colt, Proctor Knott, l»ent Hnlvndor, the hope of the New Yorkers. The great Futurity, nnd a race the campaigners talk of today, came lu 1998, when Jamea R. Keene'a Domino lient Ulehnrd Croker'a Dobbins In a wonderful atruggle of leonine courage nnd thorough bred fortitude. I«nwt year Ormomlnle, n non ot Ormonde, a lire which coat W.
