' Hart, on account of bis alas, prob ably Is looked upon as.the most suitable opponent for Jeffries; and the fact that Jeffries . snubbed the Kentuckian at a recent alugfeat In Loe Angelee Is taken to mean that Parmer Jim would bos ea mercilessly with Hart aa he did with Jack Munroe. - What a farcical situation It would be. though.

SYS0::3Y TO CASHY GREAT IVEIT THIS . YEAR ' Win Shoulder a Big-Handicap in the Brooklyn, Suburban and " ' . Brighton Events. - ; During the past winter Bysonby has gained exactly 400 pounds. He will not loas all o this gain when ha la ready for one or the big handicaps "i this spring. ' .- ,-- - ..'. ,No horse ever attracted more at ten- attention than Byaonby. What be 1s thought Of by the official handloapper of the Jockey club is shown by the fact that ha la aaked to carry 111 pounds In the Brooklyn. Suburban and Brighton, handicaps, a weight no star of the race oourse haa ever been Aaked to shoulder before. There were stories, to the ef fect that, this great impost " wes con sidered altogether too much by hla own era, tbe Messrs Keene. and that tbe king of the turf world would "not be aean In any of the throe big ovonta men tioned. But It now transpires that the Keenee are well aatlafled, and. In fact, that they think that Byaonby .cannot only handle this weight with ease, but with a lair degree of racing luck will" win any of -the handicaps in which he may he started, .. Mr. Keene expressed aa much recently, and the announcement will send a thrill of Joy to the thousands who lovs to sea a great horse In action against animals worthy of .his steel. Byaonby' s preeenoe 'in any race will maks the event a auo ceaa, and he la sure to meet hie great rival for premier honors, Artful, In at least one of the-three big contents. Racegoers will hops devoutly that they will hook up In tho stretch for a heart breaking run to the wire, and that tba question of superiority for this Is still a question .on ths minds of some ex pertswill be settled. It Is true Byaonby la asked to eonoede seven pounds to Artful, but If he le the sorse the turf world believes him to ba thia dlfferenoe In weight abould not change tha result Seven pounds makee little difference to a really . great horse over a mile and a quarter. If Byaonby la beaten It Is thought soma speedy animal with a mere feather on hla back will be the one to take hla measure. . What Byaonby le -thought of across the water la shown by the fact that an English ayndlnats recently offered the Keenea 1200.000 for him. Ths offer waa promptly refused, for the Kesnes take a tremendous - pride In owning probably the fastest thoroughbred that over wore racing plates. - I SCHREIBER'S HORAGE E.
