NO ELEPHANTS FOR WYLIE TO RIDE. In giving instructions to Jockey Wylie at Latonia Thursday, W. S. Hughes, the trainer of Prince of Pless, said to him, "keep awake, you are getting heavy and sleepy lately. You rode at 90 pounds In Hot Springs; now you can hardly do 107. Chickens must be plentiful around your neighborhood. From this on you get nothing but the feathers, as I have no elephants in my barn for you to ride."
