KED CLOUD OLD CUP-WINNER Famous Horse Belongs to Line of Fast Trotters. Red Cloud, the stallion that won the Waldorf-Astoria cup for gig horses at Madison Square Garden in 1309, is now at Mount Sterling, Ky., not far from where he was foaled seventeen years ago. It is a singular fact that this horse, per haps the most perfect heavy harness stallion living, is not eligible to registra tion in any book for harness horses but is duly recorded in the American Saddle Horse Register, as are his sire and dam. His breeding brings out the close rela tionship between the saddle-bred horse of Kentucky and the standard trotter. His sire, Wilson's King, wag a son of the eras imported from Seattle. Rasch Brothers, the builders, sent two men down from the Sound city to run the Mercury, and Lind drove his craft him self. The race was over four miles, and the finish was at the Morrison-street bridge. When the Flirt ran into the finish, the Mercury had Just reached the Madison-street bridge. The Flirt showed its superiority in every way, and easily outclassed the other boat. Plumbers Win at Baseball. The Wholesale Plumbers', baseball team The dam of Wilson's King was by Par sons' Abdallah, a son of Alexander's Ab dallah. and his grandam was by Davis Yellow Jacket, a son of Wells' Yellow Jacket (sire of Thomas L. Young, 2 JS 1-2). Red Cloud's dam was by Wystt's Red Cloud, a son of the standard trotting stal lion Indian Chief, by Blood's Black Hawk, son of Hill's Black Hawk, the sire of Ethan Allen. 2:25 1-2. It will thus be seen that the Waldorf cup winner's" pedigree is full of trotting blood, while, there is not a straight out saddle horsV among his ancestors. Parade and Races on Ventnor Beach Next August Ambitious Preparations. ', Atlantlo City has arranged for a grand automobile carnival, to take place during the week commencing August 6, when the city by the sea will have its annual crowd, and the management of the affair has al ready received the support of the city officials of Atlantic City, and although the news of the carnival has only been sent out through the local papers of that city, eptries for the various events of the week are already coming into the headquarters of the company in that city. On August 5 and S there will be races on the grand beach course at Ventnor, under the Auspices of the Atlantic City Automobile Club, which has so success fnMv held t-T-o metg on this course and where several world's records have been lowered. This is the fastest straightaway mile course in the country and has a grandstand seating over 7000 people. On Wednesday, August 7, there will be a grand auto floral parade on the seven miles of asphalt pavement on Pacific ave nue, with a grandstand -and judges' stand erected at the City Park. It is figured that from Philadelphia and New York City alone there will be over 500 entries in the parade, for which the carnival com pany will award handsome silver cups as prizes, while the various local business as sociations will give special prizes. The week will end with a three-day au tomobile exhibit on Young's million dol lar pier, which Is the finest place in the country for an affair of this kind. Here the eihibltors will have an unbroken floor space of 150x250 feet, with an arch ceil ing containing over 12,000 various colored electric lights. This exhibit will take up Thursday, Friday and Saturday for the week and should be the largest initial ex hibit ever held, Inasmuch as during the busy season of the year in Atlantic City visitors are found from all parts of the world, and the manufacturers, agents and sundry supply houses will find that they could not reach with advertising the class of people who will' visit this ex hibit. The officers and committeemen of the carnival are all recognized business men of the famous seashore, and no doubt the entire week will see the greatest assem blage of auto owaers -and dealers ever gathered together in any one place.

Passengers With Only Few Slight Injuries. SPOKANE, Wash.. June 22. (Special.) A special from Ieavenworth, Wash., says : The Great Northern Railway passenger train No. L going west, was wrecked about eight miles up the Turowater Can yon, west of Leavenworth. The train was a double-header. The first engine spread the rails, falling on its side. The second engine was thrown from the track into the Wenatchee River, carrying the mail car along with it. The engineer of the second eturina was thrown into the river and was in great danger of drowning, but was rescued -by. passengers. The fireman of the sub merged engine was carried down with his engine, but was not seriously injured. He fortunately retained his presence of mind and was able to make his way. while yet under water, to an opening be tween the running gear of the machine and was helped to land by passengers. There was none hurt except the fireman, who was slightly injured about the head. The wrecking car was ordered out from Everett. A crew of men is at work building a temporary track to re lease the train. No. 2 is held at Chiwaukum and No. l'a coaches are held at Drury. a small Kta tion about eight miles from here, until what Is called a "shoo-fly" track is 'built around the wreck. This will be ready for traffic about 2 o'clock A. M. SQUIRES ANDHIS NICKNAME Eastern Fight Critic Tells Origin ol Term of "Boshter." A correspondent wants to know the meaning of Bill Squires' Australian nickname, "Boshter Bill." One of the dictionary deflnitnoa of "bosh," from which it was probably de rived, runs as follows: "A trade name for a mixture of butter and animal fats, imported into this country from Holland and sold as a cheap imitation of genuine butter." No, that can't be it. That evidently belongs to Boshter Herr Henri John Joseph Plaacke. Another is: "Bosh. ' To humbug (slang)." Not yet. That must attach to Bosh ter Tommy Ryan. Still another: "Bosh. Empty talk." Nope. Doesn't quite fit. Personal property, no doubt, of Boshter Bill No lan. N- One more: "To cut a bosh. To assume a fictitious appearance of importance." Well, now. That may be Bill, We'll know better after he fights Mike Schreck at Colma on the 30th. Ed gren in the Evening World. . " Want to Abolish Spiked Shoes. ' Sentiment is being tevlved among ball players for the abolition- of spikes on players' shoe and the substitution of cleats similar to those worn by football players. It is pointed out that players are not only injuring others, but are in juring themselves by tripping or catching their spikes on bases when sliding, and thereby wrenching their ankles. The cleats answer the purpose of preventing slipping almost as well as spikes, and it would be fair for all if made to wear them by rule. ' W. D.
