NEW SADDLE RECORD
ON BELMONT TRUCK
Horses in Sweepstakes Also
Brought Changes in World's
Figures
Special to The Telegraph
Philadelphia. June 11. Records
were broken in the Horse Dealers'
Sweepstakes at Relmont track yester
day afternoon. Roy Miller, the winner,
trotted the fastest three heats in the
history of the event, and the first heat,
won by Lord Brook in 2.11)4, was the
fastest ever trotted over Belmont
track in an open race. The average
of the four heats. 2.-12%, is the best
ever made in a trotting race in this
section of the country—and this, too,
between 2.30 class horses.
The average time for the five heats
in the Keystone stakes for 2.17 pacers
was 2.12>4, making a grand average
for the nine heats In the two stake
rai es of 2.12 which ail horsemen
will admit is pretty good for two slow
classes In the month of June.
The novelty race of the day, trotting
under saddle, brought out seven start
ers and the performances of the lot
would have made such old-time rid
ers of trotters as Rudd Doble blush
with shame, not for himself but for
the present, day saddlers.
The winner. James Dunlap's Bow
Devil, was well ridden by Hugh Car
lin, who. by winning- the fourth heat
in 2.30%, which was the fastest in
the race, had the honor of establish
ing a world's record, since so far as is
known by the present generation of
horsemen, there never before wa« a
fourth heat trotted in a race to saddle.
Most of the horses refused to trot all
of the time, but Bow Devil was one of
the best matiner'ed of the lot.

'AME AT LON
Walter J. Travis, aged 53, showed a
crowd of young golfers what he could
do at his age when he won the met
ropolitan championship on L.ong Island
against a field of men of national
renown In the game.
Travis right now weighs nearly 140
pounds and is about 5 feet 8 Inches in
height. He wears glasses because the
strain of watching golf balls during
many years has slightly impaired his
Right. His costume on the links—
norfolk jacket and knickerbockers—
Is the traditional uniform. It is very
popular with many of the older golf
ers. A big black cigar completes the
figure of Travis that is so familiar in
all the tournaments.
A peep into the Travis golf bag gives
a good insight Into the man's deep
study of his favorite snort. His clubs
are the weirdest collection you ever
saw. drivers with big knots on them,
n.ashies shaped like fish hooks and
putters exceptional for their bulk.
But they ail serve their purpose.
For his weight and age Travis drives
a remarkably long ball off the tee, the
reward of perfect swinging and correct
timing. Like Harry Tardon. the cele
brated English champion. Travis will
always sacrifice distance for direction,
not only because it is the proper thing
to do, but advancing years have taken
some power from his arms and
shoulders.

4i Betty," the big chimpanzie
that has the honor of being the head

Theater this week, is having the time
or her life at llarnsburg's popular sum
mer resort. Every day "Betty's"
keeper turns her loose in the park to
8. .L? .. * B children. She chases the
kiddies around the park, rolls in the
grass, climbs trees, uses the swings,
slides and see-saws and gets Just as
much fun out of her frolics as the
youngsters do theirs. There Is noth
]" I ?. J , vlc :! ous about "Betty." and the
kiddles soon learn not to fear her.
Her chief delight is to get some kid to
run away from her and then catch him
by the foot and trip him. As soon as
the runaway is onre thrown "Betty"
looses all interest In him and chases
someone else.
Yesterdny "Betty" made a great hit
with the youngsters by going into the
park restaurant, sitting down to a
table and making: a (Treat racket until
she was served with ice cream, which
she ate with a spoon In n most appro

PREPARATIONS Oil
FOR BASS SEASON
Tuesday Is Official Date For the
Opening; New Fish Code in
Effect Later
The bass season will open next Tues
day. This date is official, according to
a statement from N. 11. Bull or, State
Commissioner of Fisheries. The new
fish code adopted by the recent Legis
lature is not yet in effect. If It was,
the date for the opening would be one
day later. Commissioner Buller says:
"At the present writing the act of
May 1. lftOft, is in force. House bill
9-8, called the new fish code, is now in
the hands of the Governor for his
action, but at this writing the depart
ment is unable to say what disposition
will be made of it. As the bass season
opens on June 15, the new law will not
become effective until certified copies
can be printed, which could not be
dene before the 15th of .Tune. Sec
tion 3 of the act provides that it shall
be unlawful to flsh for or have in pos
session. the same being killed, any
game fish from the thirty-first day of
December to the fifteenth day of June,
both dates Inclusive, except charr or
brook trout, or any speries of trout,
and it would seem that the open sea
son would be from the sixteenth day
of June to the thirtieth day of Decem
ber, both dates inclusive, should the
law become effective."
T„ocal dealers anticipate a big sea
son. Sales of tackle and fishing outfits
to date have been large. Bass are,
said to be plentiful. Bait fish may he
scarce on account of the present con
dition of the river. Stone rollers will
again be popular, as this kind of bait is
more plentiful. Shiners are scarce
in this vicinity.

MOM POWER TEAM
LOSES FIRST BITTIE
Harrisburg Independents Have
Easy Time With Leaders in
Railroad League
Harrisburg Independents had an
easy job with the Pennsylvania Rail
road Motive Power team yesterday,
winning by a score of 15 to 1. The
game -was expected to be close. John
Breckenridge, who is captain of the
railroad team, started right, but when
Garverich was hit for three bingles in
one inning, he put the youngster in
the field and went on the mound him
self.
This change was Breckenridge's un
doing. He was bumped all over the
lot. When Harrisburg started the fire
works, the whole team back of the
former Tri-State star went soaring.
Errors of omission and commission
were numerous. Harrisburg simply
walked away with the game. It was
the first defeat for the Motive Power
team, leaders in the Railroad league.

NEWARK'S COMING
FIR FROM CERTAINTY
Local Fans Gloomy Over Prospects
For International League
Baseball
Large size chunks of gloom cover
Harrisburg to-day. Late reports from
Newark give little encouragement for
the transfer of the International
League team to this city. No word
was received yesterday from the New
ark club officials.
Reports that President Soloman was
in Reading yesterday have not been
verified. It is said that owners of
Lauer Park, Reading, offered a cash
bonus if the Newark team plays there.
However, Reading does not have a
good reputation as a baseball town.
While It was announced that New
ark backers did not ask cash from
Harrisburg, It is understood that Presi
dent Soloman is now seeking the town
that can offer the best argument from
a financial standpoint. Definite news
as to the transfer is expected to-day.
