Comment on DiimIi Itaetnif, Dash racing would have reeolvod moro s.ipport from trainers and own ers If It hail not been for the shorter races. It was the big Held In tho rnees at short distances that caused many to condemn the whole system. If dashes are to he popular with owners the shortest distances should bo six furlongs with Heids limited to the width of tho track, Even at great distances It will not ho possible to have more than one tier. Probably dashes will never ho popu lar with the horsemen until meetings of two or more weeks arc held at ono track. Hven then there will have to bo many Improvements, As it is now horses aro too easily outclassed and the system Unit will allow these to ho handicapped so as to make money * 'Tis the little things that count 99 That is why well dressed men Buy their Furnishings at COPELAND'S 4 4 One Price Store Shoes, Hats and Men's Furnishings Customer's Shoes Shined Free erivnera "*o\ them will he the one that will be n success. Dash racing is not a thing of tho pn?1 despite the fact that tho New York meetings at the Empire und Brighton tracks were far from being what I heir admirers opectod. They were popular with tho public and with proper conditions will be popular with owners, tmlncrs and the speculative public. Football nt Went Point. From the looks of the ninety-six candidates that have reported to Cap tain Graves for places on tho football squad the West Point Military acad emy bids fair to have a llrst class team this year. The "plobo" class that en tered In June turned out forty-seven men, and all are big, husky fellows. Although most arc green at the game, some have already played on school and college gridirons. Last year's stars, Prince and Davis, are back in the game, as are most of last year's men. By the graduation of Farnsworth, Hlloy, Thompson and Ilackett the boI dlere suffered n great loss, but from the material on hand these places will doubtless he ably filled. The coaching this year Is being look ed after by West Pointers. Lieutenant Boyers and Lieutenant Thompson, last season's right guard, have arrived to direct the coaching of the team, assist ed by other ofllcers of football experi ence. Charlie Daly will also bo a mem ber of the coaching squad. Trainer Tcmpleton is again looking out for the men and shortly will start the training table. Vult-'i. Football Sltnntlon. Yale's football squad has been In creased to thirty men by the arrival of several new candidates for the team. Chief among them is Bowman, Yale's baseball captain and all around ath lete, who last season was otic of tho strong backs. Bockwell, lost season's quarterback, has worked hard. He looks In the best of condition and will be a strong can didate to succeed himself as the held general of tho team. Captain Ilogan was engaged principally In directing the work of the men In company with Field Coach Rttfforty. J. J. Quill, the former Amherst full back. Is a formidable looking candi date for back. He is getting special attention of the coaches. For center Borahack of last year's scrub team Is being trained. Ralph Bloomer, guard, and Tom Bhevlln, last season's end, have arrived at New Haven.
