TRAINING GALLOPS
Trowbridge And Pacific Hall Moving Well
(By "Morning Dew")
Quite a number of ponies were put through their paces you- terday and from the gallope of the Derby griffins It will be seen that Trowbridge, Mrs Pearces candidate is going well at the moment. The pony covered a mile in 2,132 and finished in a shade over 29.2.
Mr. Ho Kom Tong's Pacific Hall was another pony which went about his work impressively. His last quarter of 30.1 was effortless.
*
The subscription griffins are still doing very slow work and very little has been gleaned so far of their true capabilities.
From the times of the Australian ponies shown below it will be seen that these ponies are already doing good "times" and by the Annual Meeting should not be shamed by last year's ponies.
The following times were clocked:-

The Indian Recreation Club Juniors who "are strong contenders for the Championship honours this season were also engaged in a friendly fixture.

In connection with the death of Count Macchi, it has been polated. out there is another survivor of the officers of the old Papal army.
This is the Tifante Alfonso, lead of the house of Bourbon. The Duke of San Jalme, as he is géner- ally known, was born in London 85 years ago.

Despite his age he still takes an active interest in. politics. He has never renounced his rights to the Spanish throne.
Divided Monarchists In the present Cortes a number of deputies support his claims, styling themselves Traditionalist Monar- chists as distinct from those who stand for the ex-King of Spala.
This division, however, will come to an end in due course. The In- lante is the last of the Carlist branch of the Spanish Bourbons.
Upon his death the ex-King will become the head of the Bourbon family, and thus and a controversy which has weakened the monarchi- cal cause in Spain.
