I ■ MUCH PLEASED WITH JAC0BAS SUCCESS. Barney SchreBjer, who spent last week in Puffalo enjoying the Fort Brie races, is quite as much elated over the success ol Jack kenes crack filly Jacobs in the Spinaway Slakes at Saratoga Wednesday as if he had himself bred the Tilly. She is by his favorite stallion .lack Atkin, with which her dam. Agues Virginia, was mated while owned by Henderson nogs a. from whom Mr. Keene bought the mare before Jacoha was foaled. It is naturally a source •! much gratification to Mr. Sehreiber that in bis first year in the stud Jack Atkin should have produced what appears to be the best juvenile tilly of the Season. Mr. Sehreiber has had several successful stallions during his career as a breeder of the thoroughbred, but he is firmly convinced that lack Atkin is destined to outshine them all. This famous -on of Sain and Fl Hamdo, which carried the colors of his bleeder with such distinction on the i.nt- courses of America half a dozen years ago, i- now at the head of the select stud which Mr. Sehreiber is maintaining in the blue rass region of Kentucky, near [.exingtou. It is quite likely that Mr. Sehreiber will go t the PachV coast this month to lend what aid he can to the revival of racing at San Francisco. He always enjoyed great popularity with California race-goers in the days when he piled his vocation of bookmaker on the race- tracks of the coast and nobody will rejoice more than he if the sport again conn- into its own in the far west James C. Ncalou. who is one of the most active of the coterie of Influential men who have put their shoulder- to the wheel in Hi.- effort to ti store racing at San Traini-co. is one of Mr. Schieibers BMOt Ultimate California friends.
