... SOME BUYERS AT THE JULY SALES. SIR WILLIAM JAMES INGRAM, BART. SIR WILLIAM INGRAM has been more or less connected with the Turf for some years, but if he has never yet possessed a racehorse of any note he has lately made several extensive pur chases in high-bred stock, so it is possible that we may see the olive-green and white diamonds and rose-pink cap more often to the fore in the future ...

FOUR AGES OF THE BICYCLE

... . LOOK at that picture and on this; or on those three pictures of past days and on this one of the machine of 1896; take a spin along the Ripley-road on a Sunday morning, or if you are not a cyclist, take a stroll on the pavement that skirts the Bayswater-road or that loads towards Hammersmith, and try to recall, as you watch the stream of cyclists flowing incessantly country-wards, what ...

The habits then were indeed distinct from the aprons of to-day, which sometimes err on the ...

FUNERAL OF THE LATE SIR AUGUSTUS HARRIS

... . YOU who stand round here know very well the great life that has closed; but what, my friends and brethren, what is the lesson that we are to derive from the life of him whom God has called, in the zenith of his great powers, to that which he sought and prayed for-- rest? The lesson is work-- work mental, such as many of you are engaged in, and work of the body. Would that my words' could ...

INTERVIEW WITH MM. JEAN AND EDOUARD DE RESZKE

... . HAIL, Sir Tristan! Hail, King Marke! and the ceremony of the greetings over, the unique brothers and your representative settled to a survey of things past, present, and future. Were it only possible to chronicle in detail all that was discussed! It might be done at some future time and in another form; for the present a bare mention must suffice. Amongst other things we went over that ...

PROSPECTS OF SPORT IN THE HIGHLANDS: LATEST FROM THE MOORS

... PROSPECTS OP SPORT IN THE HIGHLANDS. Latest from the Moors. IT is not considered wise by many to count your grouse eggs till long after the contents are hatched and flying bold and strong on the wing. There are many things to be considered-- drought, wet weather from continued thunderstorms, and, worst of all, an outbreak of that rinderpest of the heather, the blight. Still up to now all is ...
