AS OWENS IS SEEN IN ENGLAND. A London paper refers to steeplechase jockey Jimmy Owens as the "American rider who has been practicing In France." It would be Interesting to hear the comment ot Gwyn Tompkins when that paragraph catches his eye and he recalls Owens ride on Jimmy Lane In the Ballston Steeplechase at Saratoga last summer. Practicing In France, oh? If England or Franee can show a finer general through -a steeplechase field than Owens proved to he in the Ballston he would he an ohject of much interest hereabouts.
