Irish Lad' was among the number, but he is still .very lame, although Dr. Shepard says "Ho will get orer It" - Thia good horse . had been lame for quite a long time, and his owners were minded to send him to -the stud. ' Dr. Shepard said: "If he were fired he would be a good race horse again this year." Rogers, too favored ' the doc tor's view,' and ' the Irishman "was deeply fired around , the coronet The Intense strain of the race and the hard going eauaed him to sore up sgain,' but, ss the doctor says, he will come out of It' "" ' ., Irish Xstd Kay Bot Bon. , ' The Whitney- and-Ahtryea folic have no great hope of getting Irish Lad to the post In the Saratoga handicap, but they are not without iove of winning 'that rich and Important race..

The breaking down of Highball and the neceaalty for shooting the American Derby winner caused sincere grief among horsemen,- .' He waa 1 a " grand horse. In the opinion of many,, the best 1-year-old in America. . The gamenese of the horse was shown In an Incident which occurred after his leg was broken. . , . .; ... , ', i, 1 While waiting for the wagon to come to remove him the fifth race was run. His handlers wefe holding Highball, with bls'face head'ed up the stretch, and he1 was standing by the last quarter pole, Juat Inside the Inner ralL As the herses came dashing down the stretch towsrd biro. Highball wheeled like a flaah and, with one leg . broken, at--tempted to make for the finish line. . Of eouree, his handlers held him in check before he had taken two bounds, but his action showed . his gamenese to the very end. . It has1 been said the leg might have been patched tip and the horse sent to the stud. Mr. Scheftell, his owner, said: "It Is very true I might have saved Highball ' for stud duty. Other thor oughbreds which have met with similar accidents hare been patched up and sent to the stud.

(Jounul Special Sarrice.) - ' . : New "Tork,'; July Local followers of the flatlo game will have -plenty to talk about within the next two months, as there; are a number of schemes to keep the. sport, popular. -One which Is attracting a. good deal of attention la the project of Sam FiUpatrick to give weekly boxing bouts on 'the water In conjunction with an outing such as are held most 'every, day by pollUcal and social organizations in greater New York. Fltz Patrick's plan is to charter a large fireproof steamer and have ths contests decided on board within the three mile limit. FiUpatrick has con sulted expert-legal, authorities, who have assured-him that he need not be afraid of any Interference. If Fltspat rick's venture succeeds, and there is every reason - to believe it will, local devotees of the manly art will be in clover, for, they will have a chance to see scraps In . the -old orthodox way, -without being compelled to travel from one spot to another like fugitives from justice.' '.-. -,. . -The last time that-a venture Of this nature was tried on the local sports was 'when John Flood and John L. Sul livan met la "their fight on a barge on the Hudson river in 1811. Those who Vera fortunate enough to witness Uita contest say that the conditions , under which the encounter waa fought were considerably better than In some of the goes which held the boards during, the much lamented Horton law .days. Ball and BtoOoverm, Frankle NeU of California, whose ability . to punch has : landed him . the bantam title, will have ; an opportunity to give his powers a fine teat whan he faces Hug hey McOovem at Chicago this mouth. The boys are to meet only for six rounds, but for little fellows this Is a fair Journey to decide their relative boxing ability. - McOovern. like his brother Terry, has a stiff punch. He can knock an opponent out with either hand. He is as aggressive as the "ex tern bis," and some critics think he Is Terry's superior - in cleverness. Llks his noted brother his rise Was meteoric. He has only been prominently before the publlotwo years, but in that time he has demonstrated his right to be taken seriously. , Most of his boxing was done at Philadelphia in six round bouts. Once In a while he has been called upon to travel a little further. He Is fast, heady and very game. But the queetlon remains can he avoid Nell's heavy solar plaxus punch? This blow has been the downfall of most of Neil's , opponents, and is a hard smash to get away from. Nell has landed It on clever and more seasoned pugilists than young McOovern, and Is confident that it will stand him la good stead when he' tackles Hughey. If Nell de feats McOovern he will not be allowed to rest There are plenty of bantams hereabouts willing to exchange Jolts with htm. Nell eays he will go through the Hat,, and If successful will visit England and havs it out with the much touted Jim Bowker, finglanda- bantam champion " - , ' OOOB OAXB AT TBS BAXXJH.
