MOTH MILLER, 2:07, BACK ON THE

ROAD AFTER SHORT TITRF CAREER,

WINS MANY BRUSHES.

Moth Miller. 2:W. the trim little red roan pacer

that frequenters of the Speedway have missed since

the training season opened, was back on the drive-way yesterday, stepping and going with greater

spe«»<i than ever before. His owner. Dr. David

Randell who is a newcomer among the roaddrivers, decided early last spring to campaign hisfast horse this year, but one week's experience inprofessional harness racing was apparently enough.

After fittingMoth Mill, for the races Dr. Randcll

entered him at Newburg last week and sent him up

the river with his trainer and grooms to start In

the free for all. Arrived at the track. Dr. Randellwas told that the race had been declared off owing

to a lack of starters. Moth Miller had been en-tered at Syracuse this week, but receiving no as-surance that he could get a race If he shipped hishorse there Dr. Randell brought him back to New-

York and announced to his friends that hereafterhe meant to drive him on the Speedway. While atKewburg the brisk lime pacer stepped a mile m2:13%. with a half in 1:05. He could go at this clip

in his brushes yesterday, and when he stuck to hisstride no horse on the raid was his match.

Christopher Hackott's handsome chestnut stall-

lOß King Tom. by Mambrino King, chased him

over the speeding ground early in the day. but

could not get within two lengths of the slippery

little roan. Then Moth Mluer had a brush with

Charles alley's big bay trotter Bel Esprit. 2:l2'*.beating him three lengths or more with *ff»tn

ease \ft.i- this show of speed nobody wanted toturn' with Dr. Randell. ana he had to content him-self with letting the Miller go over the road alone

As usual, the spectators crowdedon the track which was Indirectly the cause of abad accident, which happened in the five milehandicap for professionals The umpire, In orderto watch the riders, was forced forward so far onthe track that one of the men ran Into him, and abad spill followed. Five of the competitors went

down on the track Babb, Freeman. Kramer, Klm-bie and Hatfleld. Babb was the must severely In-jured, and may not be able to race for some time.Frank Kramer agaii showed form, and capturedthe half mile open for professionals In Komi style.Cooper did better work than he hud done lately byfinishing second to Kramer, and winning later thefive in...- handicap In lose to record time.

THIS WEEK'S TOURNEY TO DECIDE STJ.PREMACY OF WOMEN'S METROPOLITAN

GOLF ASSOCIATION-SOME OF THEPROMINENT ASPIRANTS FOR

MISS HECKER'S TITLE.

In choosing the N/assau Country Club links a3 thescene of its second annual championship theWomen's Metropolitan Golf Association has paida pleasant tribute to the home course of a playerwho above all others has been responsible for theassociation's success In the last two seasons. Reerence is made, of course, to Miss Ruth Under-hill, who held the championship of the UnitedStates In 1899b and who la the association's presentIndefatigable secretary. Ardsley was at one timeseriously considered as a. meeting place, but opin-lon so generally favored Nassau that the changewas deemed advisable, not only because of U3charming links, but because about its clubhousecentres a delightful summer colony of wealthyNew-Yorkers, whose hospitality toward the visitingcompetitors will add much to the enjoyment of tieBM

--The tournament begins to-morrow, and will last

out the week, Women are playing a much moreconspicuous part In golf than they were a year ago,and this tournament will be watched with Interestby all lovers of feminine outdoor sports, not merelyfor its local importance, but because among- thecompetitors will be many who will take prominentplaces in the national championship to be held laterat Baltusrol.

Miss Genevl^ve He^ker Is the present champion.and to wrest her title from her Is the secret ambi-tion of half a dozen local players of note, all ofwhom will start in to-morrow's qualifying round.

Last year Miss Maude K. Weiinore. of the Mor-ris County Golf Club, made the best sears in thisround, with Miss Beatrix Hoyt. three times holderof the national championship, in second place.

Both should prove formidable candidates for thecup. Morris County also has a strong aspirant InMiss Hurlbut, who in last week's tournament atEssex County qualified for the first cup. though

beaten later by Miss E. W. Goffe. of the homoclub.

Mrs. N. Pendleton Rogers, of the Hillside Tennisand Golf Club, of Plalnfield, is another whose play

last week at Essex County should entitle her to

consideration. Though beaten by Miss Hecker. shesurvived to the finals, where she showed herselfcapable of a strong, consistent and finished game.

While It cannot be said that similar success willfollow her at Nassau, she Is likely to qualify forthe match play, where, if the draw proves favor-able, she may develop unexpected strength.

Of the Baltusrol entries, perhaps the most prom-

inent are Miss Marion Oliver, who lost to Miss

Hecker at Essex County only after a hard fight.

and Mrs. W. Fe'.lowes Morgan, who has taken aleading" part In almost every local tournament of

note as well as several of the national champion-

ships. At the national championship two yearsago Miss Oliver won the driving contest with acarry of I*4 yards—a feat which indicates a kindof skill peculiarly advantageous on such a links asNassau.*

Miss Beatrix Hoyt is certain of a commar.ilngposition should she be able to start. hie lack-ing some of the freedom it used to possess hergame is undoubtedly the best of any of th* otherlocal aspirants, and If her nerve has not beenshaken by recent defeats Miss Hecker willfind Itdifficult to retain her title. Miss Hoyt is one ofthe few women golfers in this country who makeuse of their wrists, as Travis does, to get dia-li

NOTES OF THE ROAI>.While the wind was a little springlike yesterday,

it was not strong enough to discourage the greatarmy of wheelmen, and the ,ads were throngedall day. Tne Sunday pilgrimage to the seashorehas not .started in In earnest yet. on account ofthe cool weather. The suburban roads, however,were well patronized. Thou— nils were seen onth« macadam reads In Svestch< iter, and manytours were made through the Oranges and otherbeautiful sections of New-Jersey. Many also wentto Btaten Island from this borough and from New-Jersey. Many motor cycles, motor tandems, tri-cycles and quadrtcycles were seen on the roadsduring the day. The puffin? little machin.* dartedthrough the crowds at considerable speed, and theambitious scorcher who tried to tack on and takepace generally found himself out of breath andthoroughly fagged before proceeding far. There isno "breathing^ spell for these machine.-, ilk.- thosemanned only by muscular power.

ROWING.

The good prices brought for yearling thorough-

breds In this country this year have been widely

cemented upon, but no such price Imp ever beenpaid for a |inisiliislin America as was paid by

R. S. Slevier for the yearling fillySceptre when hebought her at Ik*sale of the late Duke of West-minster's racing stud for IMMguineaapproxi-mately IMjSM What is more. Englishmen thinkthis filly was worth the money. She easily wonth« Wobdcote Stake? of l.Oftrt sovereigns at Epsomthe day before the Derby was run. Sceptre Is adaughter of the Derby winner Persimmon, and isalready hailed U the best two-year-old of her sexin England.

Inthe morning sf the day m which the Derby

was won by Volodyovskl a feather brained poet

burst forth Into sang through the medium of "TheSportsman" to the tune of a sixteen stanza affair

entitled "The Derby." The author of these verseseifrned himself John Trow Hay. and he probably

realizes by this time that, bad as he is as a poet,

he is worse as a judge of thoroughbreds. Thegenial songster starts off in this fashion:

The free fair downs of Bpsoas.So ling. fresh and preen.

With what aeligtat, when ail is bright,We hail the festive scene :

When slowly o'er the azure sky.The fleecy clouds po floating by.Borne on the gentle zephyrs' sigh

On summer <lay nerene.The writer then proceeds to describe the race as

be Imagines it may be run. It is interesting to

note thei Volodyovski does not figure in his verse.Probably he could find nothing to rhyme with it.After weeding out the contenders one by one, TrewHay brings them all down to William the Thirdtoid Tantalus, and winds up with this prophecy:

Forthwith a splendid struggleBetween th. Is begun.

And though both feel tlm whipand steel,flight gamely do they run;

'Mid sound of cheer*, and whips that crack,As hands go up. end heels go back.The cherry heads the white and black.

And TANTALUShas won.Tantalus is believed to be Eti:i running.

The above jingle was evoked, among others, by

an offer of a prize of a book on "The British Thor-oughbred

"price $10. The one that won the prize

W«s by a man who picked Handicapper to win theDerby.

The stewards of the Belgian Jockey Club haverecently adopted a rule requiring jockeys to ridetheir herpes out, -whether they have a winning

chance or not. This Is apparently in the Interestof those bettors who have backed horses for aplace, and is likely to be detrimental to two-year-

olds who are entered for the race but are notthoroughly lit to stand a fierce drive. To forcesuch a colt to the utmost point of endurance forme sake of bettors would (scarcely seem to be Inthe Interests of the thoroughbred, or. Indeed, ofracing as a whole. Many premature breakdownswould probably result if this rule were obeyed to

the letter. A good gallop in a race may do atwo-year-old, when not thoroughly on edge, a dealOf good: bet a desperate straggle for second orthird place is quit? likely to ruin his career, andthe idea o* studying those echo regard horsesmerely as instruments of gambling, in preferenceto considering owners. Is not likely to strike manypersons on this side of the water as sportsman-like.

One of the most extensive private golf courses Inthe United States belongs to Francis Kinney, themillionaire cigarette manufacturer. His course ison the Old Point Judith Boad, near NarragansettPier. Rhode Island, and by the local inhabitants ithas been dubbed "Kinn«»y"s Ootf Club." Theowner has recently ert-oted a two story house forgolf purposes and the convenience of his friends.A kitchen, grill and lunch rooms are on theground floor, while wide balconies surround theupper part, giving unobstructed views over everypart of the links. The <ourse nas nine holes, andmany inter<Min»r private matches will be playedthere during the season.

The local baseball enthusiasts sum been withoutprofessional carries for two weeks, and many arelooking forward to the return '•: the Brooklyn andNew-York teams on Tuesday, when the local seasonwillbe reopened at Washington Park. The Easternteams as a whole have done fair work hi the West.

The most s!pr.;il failure of the tour was the poorwork done by Mathewson, cf the New-York team.When he left here for the West he was sidedas the pitching wonder of the age. Mathewsonhas shown that he is a poofl pitcher, and there isno reason why he should not recover his form andbe a useful man to his club the remainder of th«season. Pfcysa has. on the whole, been the moreBucceesful of the two pitchers. The champions havenot played the game this year expected of them,and Manager Hanlon will have his hands full intrying to strengthen his team at this time Theteam ought to do better work from now on. asthe pitchers are slowly but surely rounding intoshape. The team is weak at third base, and notstrong at first.

There is a pretty little muss going on betweenthe professional promoters who -willhave much todo with furnishing bicycle meets for this districtthis season. The average rider takes little Interestin these quarrels*, and willbe content bo long asrood and honest racing is furnished. The NationalCycling Association will look after that part of theprogramme. Two meets are scheduled for nextSaturday, on* at Manhattan Hea.ch and the otherthe annual meet of the Atalanta Wheelmen at theVallsburg track. Newark.

The Merrlck Road ami the Coney Island cyclepaths, In Brooklyn, were thronged, us usual, andmore of the. veteran clubmen wore seen <>ut thanon any previous* Sunday this Reason. The "oldsobersides/ »s they sre called by the younger rid-ers, had a good effect on the undesirable scorchers. who are entirely too plentiful this year. Oneyounger, with his hea.i almosi <>n hi: nandhbar. had a narrow escape from death nt th. sur-fmos road crossing nearest Coney [sland on thecycle path. He ran full tilt Into i passing trolleycur, but fortunately struck the rear • n.f of th.' carand was thrown back of it some distance. Had hestruck the forward part -if the car he would prob-ably have been run over and killed. His name isMixNeu, and he was not badly hurt Pitman th<>veteran, was chased by one «.' the new bicyclepolicemen for ridingon the roadway. II.¦ said thaihe had dart.-d suddenly off the cycle path In orderto escape s collision with s child rider who dad

ontrol of his wheel. The policeman gavechase for a few blocks, and abandoned the pursuitin disgust. The policeman thought the motorcycle had no ri^-ht on the roadway. He w.-is wrong.A motor cycle has the same rights on s roadwayas any other sort of a vehicle.

. PREPARATIONS FOR THE INTERCOLLEGIATE

RACE AT POirGHKEEPSIE.

Poughkeepoie, N. V.. June 18 (Special).— Becauseof the eminently satisfactory showing made in thepractice spin with Pennsylvania, and in the timerow yesterday Edward )ian!;i:i announced thisevening that, barring accidents, he had definitelydecided that the Columbia 'varsity crew would row

;In the following order for the intercollegiate race;

Bow. It. P. Jackson; No. •.'. 11. C. Townsend; No. 3.A. D. W.fK..-.-.. No. 4. F. B. Irvine; No. 5. s. P. Nash;

i No. «'.. Maxwell Stevenson; No. 7. R. B. Ilartholomew ;'stroke. C. M. Xi.-K.r

The change from Stevenson to Nieger for strokewas due. T.i the latter's greater strength and abilityto hit up a faster pace. The four has been chosen

i provisionally, but the bow position is uncertain.Th.-re Is extreme .-.intent to-night at the Columbia

I Quarters becauas of the speed shown yesterdayat so early a stage of the game, when "the crewwas by no means pushed to the extreme limit ofIts speed. It Is probable that the 'varsity willrow a hard four miles to-morrow morning, whenan effort will be marie to £»•: a line on its utmostcapabilities. The showing yesterday is additionallygood when the fact la remembered that the crowwas rowing in a ':<!? shell. Their new and as yetunused boat, Hanlan says. la fifteen seconiia faster

To-morrow morning hard practice win startI again. Hanlan finds now that th« greatest fault:Is a tendency to rush the recovery and not u» reach| out CulL To-day the oarsmen spent In resting, most'

of the squad going to church in the morning. This!attorn. ..in the 'varsity went tor a sail on iii, yachtWalla Walla and the freshmen tor a carnage tlrlvePennsylvania took life easily to-day.

ROCKAWAY DEFEATS PHILADELPHIAC. C. 2D IX PEMBROKE TROPHY

MATCH.

[BY TELEGRAPH TO TOE TRIBfNE.]Bryn Mawr, Perm., June 15.—The Initial play

at Bryn Mawr yesterday for the. Pembroketrophy offered by Charles Wheeler had sufficientbrilliance and cohesiveness OB the part of theI:.. kaway quartet to satisfy ,1 goodly crowd ofenthusiasts who braved the inclement weatherto witness the game. The Held m rip« forrapid play, and inasmuch as the new club hasworked for over two years to put the groundIn first-class condition. It was a pity that th.-rain came down and rendered the turf soft. Asin last Thursday's game at Devon, so to-day theyoung Philadelphia Country Club players put up astrong combination, James Dougherty beingespecially forceful and tactful, much to the surpriseof the visitors from New-York. Robert Downing,too, repeated his remarkable boundary and aroundthe field play, and Mr. Boding was much moreeffective than on but year's circuit in more ex-perienced company.Hazard and CbnoTer, the Rockaway prayers, op-

erated together in a manner to reflect great crediton the club, and Rene Luaontagne accomplishedwonders In the matter of sustained runs and rapidcharges for three-quarters of the length of thefield. Mr. Savage was particularly effective on re-ceipt of left balls near the goal posts after ReneLamontagne had picked up the "backs" carries.It was. of course, a foregone conclusion thatRockaway would cat up ih.ir allowance to thePhiladelphlans in the first period, and practicallythey did ko. saving one goal. Rone Lamontagnowas unfortunately struck with Mr. Aitetnua'amallet just after starting to play the third period,and he rested fcr twelve minutes. On resuming hewas cheered for going in and his clever work inmldfield and clips to the danger point againststrong opposition resulted In his being made Bratfavorite with the assemblage. By saving their po-nies and often relieving their mounts in the lastperiod the Philadelphianft accomplished two goalsmore than were expected. Had the weather beenfine and the field dry. young James Dougherty,Philadelphia's seventeen-year-old player, wouldsurely have bothered the New-Yorkers considera-bly, his hook >-hots being most remarkable rightup to the close of the contest.
