(.'Pi Despite beins thrown by a favorite hunter. Miss Muffett, II., during the Highland brigade steeplechase meetinK at Stoekinff ton today, the Prince of Vales re mounted and won the race. The prince, riding in a race for officers, competed as colonel-ln-chief of the Seaforth Highlanders. Weather conditions for racing were atrocious with a heavy wind and pitu ring rain. Making tho pace practically throughout, how ever, the prince won handily. When three fences from the fin ish. Miss Muffett. II., stumbled and threw her royal rider, but the prince quickly remounted and con tinued the race. IJVKKI'OOL. Emj., March 29. A) Hope, spelled with capitals, might be the middle name of sev eral hundred Americana who came 7000 miles to see the crack Yankee steeplechaser, Billy Bur ton, tomorrow in what is un quejtionably the world's biggest gamble in racing the Grand Na tional steeplechase. Billy Barton, owned by Howard Bruce of Baltimore, and Burgo right, owned by Benjamin L. Behr of Chicago, are the American-bred horses entered in tho most gruel ing contest for horseflesh ever conceived by num. Moro than 300 reserved seats have been adddo to tho Alntxeo grandstand on account of the rush trom the I'nited States sportsmen, who began clamoring for aeata weeks ugo. Most of the reservations woro made by cable. and soma by trans-Atlantic telephone. The ruce, which this year Is attracting largo crowds, hod a novel beginning. It was conceived by a racing enthusiast and publi can. Jack Lynn, 91 years afiw. He hit upon the Idea of a long distance struggle 'with the view of attracting trade to his bar In the Waterloo hotel at Aintree, which had been in the doldrums for years. The scheme worked, the race bringing a crowd. Lynn died a very rich man because of thhf. Twice In the last five years tho Grand National has been Won by an American-owned horse, but never has it been won by a horse bred and owned in America. Kergeant M u r p h y. owned by Stephen Sandford of Amsterdam, X. Y., won in 1923, and Jack Horner, owned by A. C HchwarU of New York City, won In 1926. These men, with another com patriot, Harold Kowler, are com peting this year with horses bought abroad. Both Billy Barton and Burgo right are so well known in the United States that their entry attracted attention from the start. Neither Billy Barton or Burgo right is a favorite in tho betting, and the trainer of the Baltimore entry said rather pessimistically that the horses weue not accli mated. K very ho rse I n H ho r a c e , however, has a chance. The best horse does not always win. There are 3 0 obstacles in tho four and one-half mile course, and in tho first mile, along in the scurry and scramble of get ting a good start, each horse Is in imminent danger of being toppled over by the herd of in different jumpers whose Jockeys are riding with all their might and main and with a single aim. As the history of the race rec ords show, time and again hot favorites worth fortunes failed to even complete the course, while a mllk cart dobbin sped home with the bacon at odds which made the bookies weep. SACKA.MKNTO. Calif., Mar. 29. lP) Townspeople of th little community of Nicola us on the Feather Hiver had won their fight against the encroaching waters of the river toduy, Kfforts of a crew of more than 100 recruited from adjoining farms anil Sacramento had piled up a defensive bulwarlc i of timber and sandbags and the I small towns -of Nlcolaus, ICust I Nlcolaus and Verona, as well us j thousands of acres of rich farm lands were saved from inundation. Communication with nor thorn California by the Carden Highway, however, was cut off indefinitely when six spans of the concrete causeway at Nlcolaus tumbled into the boiling current yesterday.-. North Sacramento was slowly getting back to normal today as many families returned to ;thelr dwellings, moro than 1000 of which were free of water. The flood waters which covered the city for three days have been re ceding at the rate of a tenth of a foot an hour. The American Bed Cross has charge of relief work in tho nor thern suburb. An appeal for funds has been made in Sacramento county. It was learned after a survey that 141 families in the cor porate limits of North Sacramento were in need and another 100 fam ilies In outlying districts were without funds. OFGUANJUATO!

WAS THERE," LSI REPLY OF TRADER: TO CRITICS! NEW YORK, Mar. 2!). I Trader Horn's answer to those who ! question the veracity of his state ments regarding Africa and his ex periences is: "I was there."
