v CURRENT - NOTES OF THE TURF It is practically certain that the rules of racing to govern at both New Orleans tracks will be along the lines of those in use at the Kentucky courses,. The apprentice rider rule and the claiming- rules will be identical. The reason Avhy Lord Derby owns so few, if- any, wayward runners Js probably due to .the -fact that lie Avill not have his animals punished by the Avhip. The late Lord Falmouth, by the Avay, Avould not allow his horses to be touched by .whip or spur, and Lord Derby shares the same view, viz., that more races are lost than avoh by the flail. Sporting Life. Major MeCalmonts two-year-old champion, the gray Tetratema, by The Tetrarch Scotch Gift, by Symington, retires as not only unbeaten with five races to his credit, but as leading the winning horses in England up to October 20 with 5,155 as his total. His last win. the Middle Pari; Plate, put him in front of Grand Parade, the Derby Avinner, which had led the list all the racing year Avitli a total of 1,330. King George of Eagland is having some turf success in the fall racing. Recently his Lemonade, 2, by Lemberg Pintade, and Viceroy, 3, by The Tetrareh Sweet Vernal, have Avon stakes, and the royal stable earnings up to October 20 amounted to 0,007. It costs tAventy times that sum to maintain the stable and the Sandringham Stud. Herbert Jones is riding regularly nowadays in the kings purple, gold, scarlet and black. When the horses Avere at the post for the two-year-old race, the Lancashire Breeders Produce Stakes of ,225, Liverpool, England, the 11 to 10 on favorite, Southern, became lame. In consequence of this the jockey requested the starter to use his telephone to ask permission of the stewards to allow the horse to be Avithdrawn. However, it appears that Southern had only hit himself, and as the pain wore off so did his lameness, and he duly started and won easily.
