the second horse, $700, and the third, $300.Although not the richest stake offered at the Woodbine, it is one of the most coveted by Canadian owners, while it is also the one in which the greatest public interest is taken, while the fact that all the contestants are maiden racers, adds the spice of uncertainty.For the first 23 years after its establishment, the race had no permanent home, being run at no less than fifteen different tracks in Ontario.The first four contests were at Carleton, now West Toronto.While later it was run four times at London, but not consecutively; at Hamilton, Ottawa and Woodbine Park, Toronto, twice each, and once each at Guelph, St.Catharines, Whitby, Kingston, Barrie, Prescott, Picton, and the Newmarket track, near Toronto.In 1883 it was made a fixture at the Woodbine, and has been run there ever since.The distance was a mile and a half, but this was reduced to a mile and a quarter in 1887.In 1891 Mr.JE.Seagram won with Victorious the first of eight uninterrupted victories, but since that year the Waterloo horseman has had to divide honors with the .THE HORSE IS KING ON CANADIAN RACE TRACKS JUST NOW\u2014Watching one of the big events on the Vic- : toria Day card at the Woodbine Race Track, Toronto.As a study in facial expression the above picture has an a ét .yo A | | fil Le gE t \u2018 THE HORSE IS KING ON CANADIAN RACE TRACKS JUST NOW\u2014Lieut.-Governor Gibson presenting the King\u2019s Plate to Mr.Giddings, owner of Hearts of Oak.Sir Edmund Osler, member of Parliament for Toronto West, is the figure on the left.(Photo by Gleason, rr a ae ae \u2014\u2014\u2014 mm Hendries, Dyment and one year with a dark horse, Mr.T.Ambrose Woods, 30 to 1 shot, Kelvin.The last Queen's Plate was run in 1901, three months after Queen Victoria\u2019s death, and in 1902 the Plate became the King\u2019s Plate.As such it is still known.ln THE ENGLISH DERBY: THE GREATEST OF ALL TURF EVENTS.F ALI, the great races of the English turf the Derby ranks first.Years ago it was dubbed the \u201cBlue Ribbon Event of the Turf\u201d on the floor of the House of Commons by Lord Beacons- field, and the name stuck.It is indeed the blue ribbon event, and the owner of its winner is the most talked of man in England for the time being.Great statesmen and great political events are for the moment lost sight of, and the owner of the Derby winner is the hero of the hour.The Earl of Rose- bury called his success with Ladas in 1894 the achievement of the third ambition of his life.His marriage to the greatest heiress in England and his attainment of the Premiership were the other two.The winning of the Derby brought him almost as much fame in England and among English-speaking people as his appointment to the Premiership.The Derby is a race for 3-year-olds run over the course at Epsom Downs.The distance is about a mile and a (Photo by Gleason) (Continued on Page 2.)

inability to carry out the whole of his programme during his recent visit to Aldershot, His Majesty escaped an alarming, if not a dangerous, experience.It had been arranged that His Majesty should ride to Claycart Hill to witness the firing of a mine laid by the Royal Engineers.The mine had been laid 12 feet beneath the surface of the ground in a trench 60 feet long, and consisted of a charge of 160 pounds of black powder.Her Majesty the Queen was to have pressed the button releasing the electric spark that ignited the powder, and His Majesty was to have witnessed the explosion from the vantage point of a shed that had been built at a presumably safe distance away.The explosion, however, proved to be more powerful than the Engineers had bargained for, with the result that huge masses of clay fell all around the shed and on the spot where the King in all probability would have been standing.Many tons of clay and sand were thrown hundreds of feet in the air, and as soon as the public noticed that the debris would fall in a wider radius than had been anticipated there was a wild stampede.A woman left a child in a perambulator behind her, but the baby was not touched.The above picture shows the mine exploding.(Copyright Central News) AS me \u2014\u2014 Ne NT Na ENGLISH POLO PLAYERS WHO WILL TAKE PART IN THE INTERNATIONAL POLO MATCHES IN THE UNITED STATES\u2014From

1860.He never got over the defeat of his colt.Entries in his diary in that year are a curious mixture of turf and State affairs.Lord Palmerston was not a gambler.He followed the sport because he was
