tbe ronaer beat tba throw which waa In I tan If
Irary eaoufh to make aa errot and allow an
extra bate. Alexander beat hlnaeif behind tba
bat thin trip and performed there with great
eclat.
Halm Waa Wild. t
Upon tba oppoalng mountain waa ona Horn
Helm eometlmea heralded by the OaiTeaton ad-
herenta aa the coming wonder of the Tezaa
league. Helm waa; there with the gonda on
keeping tbe hlta down bat he couldn't eee tbe
plate. That little foot-eqoare robber and bla
(lellery failed to agree. Seren Urge Buffaloea
atampeiled for drat with Bttla wonder written
upon their coantenancee for Helm waa wild
and then aome. They didn't matter for a ton
time bat hie good lack could not laat and ulti-
mately It waa one of those four-hall free trana-
portaUona that tent tbe ball lulling for Houa-
ton. Tbe game waa a fart one and llelded In bean'
tlful form by both cluba. The OaiTeaton lo-
de kl worked like a clock a wide dllrerance be-
tween ita yesterday showing and that of the
day before. Meanwhile tbe Houston bagroAn
were doing their part and tbe gardenere were
cavorting.
Kate threw the dice. Saturday the Hill men
bingled to and fro. Yesterday they could not
tap Helm. It Is the Uncertainty of baseball but
fortunately the uncertainty made no great dif-
ference this time.
Twenty-nine Craba Up.
Exactly twenty-nine GalTeetonlans walked up
to the plate and then retired in aome faahloa
or 4tber. Just two of them remained upon tbe
cushions at the close of Innings. Some class
bub? Not that only two reached Dnt oh. no
four of them did that. Bat two Sgnred on the
receiving end of double plays and that waa all.
After the second Inning three men an Inning
came up. This Cyrus boy waa : flinging that
was all. a
Houston went hltleea and runlets for six In-
nings but tbe passea were slipping the boys on
the bags right along. la tbe seventh they fell
upon Mr. Helm but only three came np lc the
eighth. '
There wss some mighty poor base -running by
tbe borne talent that hurt though. Wklreman
waa nailed off first In tbe second and two bril-
liant sack plays were staged In the fourth when
Red Davis merely walked when Powell bunted
and a moment alter that youth went out la
ebase. In ennie excuse be It said that Helm
had a deceptive delivery that they could hot
gauge In accuracy
v Kern in Qrand Form.
Kerr was In grand forth on third though enea
luck aided him In fielding a hard smash. Bat
the whole BaSato team played balL Davis and
Fnltemau were again to the forefront with tba
noodle and-the arm. Naturally there waa noth-
ing ao much doing In the line of tar sticking.
Smith. Brady and Cook played a great genie
for the visitors.
Oalveston had a chance In the second. With
one affwn Brady walked and Cook rapped a hot
one to the flag on the left foul line. Cover! Be-
lli the finest kind of form Wbitemsn stoppcu
him with a bare alngla n what looked like an
easy triple and score. That was all. for Cyrua
pitched with heed and arm and two Donnelly
Ben struck Injuriously out.

Double at the Plata.
la tbe fourth McCnlley'a bad one happened
that let James first up. get to eeeaod. Biggs
aacrtneed the boy along and Brady lifted a high
one to Red Darts la right center. . Red shot
to the plate to stop the speedy James and It waa
beautiful work on Alexander's part that retired
the Crab at home. For Red'a throw was a trifle
wide and Alec had to hustle. But he did it and
kept the record clean.
Cook had grounded oat aad Smith waa on in
the fifth when McLaln laced the hottest sort
of drive to Watson. Gyrus merely grunted aad
wrapped his long 3llm fingers about the pellet
doubling Smith off first. That waa the last time
a Donnelly man reached the first cushion.
Houston aaa tne men on every inning pat tbe
sixth
ouc never reacnea tnira. nut in iue
lucky
lucky seventh It all happened.
And Than It Happened.
Powell waited and drew his four halls. Balm
grounded out and pushed him down. Incidentally
playing his grounder for all It was worth by
dodging tbe chalk line and making a near-Interference.
ln this suspicious moment Whltenan
appeared and slammed one through short that
rattled the window panes. Powell took long
chances and raced for home from second tally-
ing when Rlgia Juggled tbe sphere nt a mo-
ment. Whitey pilfered on a beautiful fall-
away aUde and got to third on McLaln's pawed
ball. McCulley fanned indlgnsntly and Alec
walked pioiantly stealing without any b-jaea
being made about the matter. Cy Watson droTe
to deep second and both runners scored on a
II hike scratch hit. Kerr wae out. Helm to
Brady.
And the god of baseball smiled.

MM when tha first Mceaatul eraaada
acalnat mcinf waa carried on la New
Jersey it ta eatlmated tbat mora than
.140800008 worth of property baa been
depreciated in vaJos while thousands of
owners and breeders hare been financial-
ly ertppled. The thoroughbred breeding;
industry baa been reduced to a mini-
mum and the paasins of soma of tha
greatest race horaee in the world has
been recorded.
; ' Tha New Jersey crusade was chiefly due
to the lnlquitTes of Guttenburg and OloU-
oeater where winter race meets ware held
In defiance of the racing law and the aura
thing gambling element ruledS with an
iron- hand. Because these tracks fol-
lowed a rufe or ruin policy a oonatltutlonal
amendment waa pajtaed by the vote re
acroaa the Hudaon river which cloned
magnificent Monmouth - park together
with the smaller race couxuew at Elisa-
beth. Linden and Clifton. Many thou-
sands of dollars Invented In 'these tracks
were lost as a result and the tracks were
allowed to go to wreck and ruin. Today
they are dismantled and so tar gone that
the casual observer would And It hard 'to
believe that thoroughbred horaee ever ran
over them for big stakes and pursea.
Wrecks In Chicago.
In aplte of powerful influences thd Chi-
cago tracks were soon put out of bust-'
nesa. Washington park where the $50000
American Derby was run;' Hawthorne
over which Edward Corrigan presided;
Worth and Harlem in which the blind
John Condon waa more than' ordinarily
Interested were forced to close their
gates. Several attempts since have been
made to revive the sport in the Windy
City but the reform element In each in-
atance haa developed sufficient power to
successfully oppose favorable legislation.
Corrigan and Condon once bitter enemies
met with other reverses. When former
Governor Folk conducted a winning fight
against race track gambling tn the State
of Missouri Corrigan was caught- In the
net. He was the principal owner of the
big track In Kansas City which together
with the Fair Grounds and Delmar Park
In St. Louis controlled by the Cella syndi-
cate waa forced to nail up the shuttera.
Condon put nearly a million dollars into
Oaklawn Park at Hot Springs Ark. only
to find that after one season the reform-
era held the whip hand In the legislature
at Little Rock. A bill prohibiting book-
making became a law and Oaklawn to-
gether with another track at the Springs
became worthless.
Action of Louisiana.
Corrigan was caught again when the
touisUna legislature closed the game at
New Orleans where it had thrived for
many years. The master of Hawthorne
Invested a fortune in the construction of
the City Park track which waa run In
opposition to the old fair grounds. In
which Cella and Condon were said to be
heavily Interested. They operated on a
oonfUctlng data schedule onewlnter and
both lost money. Then having reached
an amlca'bU agreement rheae tracks
found that they had few supper tern
among tba lawmakers at Baton Rouge
and were comnelled to give ud the fight
In spite of a storm of protests from tha.
bualnana man of New Orleans.
Montgomery park Memphis where
many turf eventa made history and the
Nashville track were boarded up because
of the anti-bookmaklng crusade In the
State of Tennessee. The merry-go-round
at Roby. Ind also fell a victim to. the
crusaders Iron Hill and Alexander
Island were closed before the District of
Columbia put the kibosh on the Wash-
ington Jockey club's track at Benninga
which was a costly affair and waa tha
biggest racing plant south of New Tork
New Hampshire made short work of the
big race course at Salem.
In far off Seattle the lawmakers- took a
crack at a prosperous track and then
cama an unexpectedly strong tight
against the truf solons In California. In
IMS the California legislature passed a
measure framed on the lines of jthe Ag-new-Hart
bUl with the result that the
million dollar track at Santa Anita near
Loa Angeles threw up the sponge.
Thomas H. Williams owner of the Em-
eryville track across the bay from San
Francisco tested the new law and got
a decision that oral betting waa legal
but this winter the California legislature
made that form of speculation impossible
and Emeryville shut down two weeks ago
rather than conduct a hopeless fight for
restoration.
Texaa Has Ona Track
The Texas leglalature two years ago
passed anti-racing measures which dosed
tracks at Houston San Antonio Oalves-
ton El Paso and other cities though Dal-
las continues to operate at a heavy loss
each year. In Florida a new law goes
into effect on May 1 which it Is .said wlU
make further meetings at Jacksonville
Tampa and Penaaoola out of the ques-
tion. They tried racing and batting In
Atlanta Qa. two years ago but the
venture waa abandoned upon the arseat
and conviction of a layer of odds.
It la needless to record the fact that
the Agnew-Perklns bills passed at Al-
bany last year made It advisable for tha
owners of the Aqueduct Jamaica. Bel-
mont Park Qraveaend Sheepshead Bay
Brighton Empire City and Saratoga
tracks to give up the flghr temporarily
at leant. Kenllworth Park Buffalo
closed aa soon aa tbe Agnew-Hart bills
were passed In 1808. Under the present
conditions unless some relief is obtained
from the courts none of these tracks
will operate thla year not even Saratoaa.
But the Jockey club Is not Idle and
there'll be a number of test
very
Boon.
The only States In which racing and
betting can go on now are Maryland Vlr-
Snla West Virginia. Utah' Montana and
entucky. There are tracks ready to
resume business at Salt Lake City. Oa-
den and Butte while) Pimltco wlU hold a
spring meeting aa usual In April it haa
been rumored for some tune however
that the Maryland legislature would be
asked to pass a bill prohibiting book-
making at the Baltimore track also at
the little half-mile circuit located at
Marlboro which was run at a lone hut
fall. Jamestown near Norfolk will try
another session this spring and open
betting will not be Interfered with. In
view of a recent court ruling In the case
ot a man prosecuted for making a band-
book. The legislature In West. Virginia
haa just passed what la known aa the
"pool room bill" and It la said that Gov-
ernor Glasscock will sign It In which
event a new race-track will be built at
Cheater W. Va.. an hour's ride from
Pittsburg.
Kentucky Maintains Game.
Kentucky will have a song racing sea-
osi from the middle of April until No-
vember although only three tracks
Louisville. Latonla and Lexington win
take part In It The parl-mutuela will
'be used at these tracks Instead of Uia
usual form of bootanaktng.
Up In Canada the reformera cama near
Ikilllng the game last year after a de-
termined fight. At tha laat moment par-
! Uunent decided to comprorniae matters
by allowing each track In the Dominion
to race aeven days in the apring and
ae-vea ta the fall. A sew law containing
these) provisions went .Into effect laat
spring and affected the blg.traoka at
Montreal Toronto. Hamilton. Windsor
and Fort Erie. Their receipts ware great-
ly reduced .and the fact that horsemen
war forced to remain Idle a week bee
twees each meeting worked as a hard-
ahlD But other small tracks in Canada
vrill be operated under the nan law 'this
year and la that way continuoua racing
