Baldwin was about the hardest man to be chiseled out or anything he set ` his heart on getting that I evemnet up | with. A whole lot of people tried to i put it on him in business and other sort of deals, but none of these ever suc- ceeded in catching `Lucky Baldwin sutcientiy asleep to make their plans stick. u1'7...........-... still `i!!! nlnnnlr n Cnnnu |.lL'I\o ' Horsemen still talk about a fun game in which Baldwin gured on one of the Chicago race tracks a number or years ago. Baldwin had brought his magnicent string or thoroughbreds to Chicago to make an effort to annex the swell stakes that were then on tap on the tracks in the windy town, and he got them home iirst or lathe money in many of the biggest events. Well, he had one of his nest horses entered in a valuable long distance event, and Baldwin was particularly anxious to win this race, not so much . tor the nurse end of it as for the glory of cap- turing the stake. His horse just about figured to win, too, and Baldwin in- tended to `go down the line on the ani- mal's chances, not only at the track, but at all or the big poolrooms in the country. He stood to clean up consid- erably more than $100,000 on the horse it` the brute got under the wire rst.` Baldwin's regular stable jockey was taken sick on the morning of the race, and the old man had to hustle around for another boy to ride his horse in the big event. From another horseman he bought for a big round sum the release of a high grade rider. who was to have taken the mount on a thoroughbred f that didn't gure to get near the money in the stake race. Baldwin gave the jockey his instructions as to the way he wanted the horse ridden, and then, when the betting opened, his commis- sioners dumped Baldwin's money into the ring ingsuch large quantities that the horse became an overwhelming fa- vorite. , _.--__L__ ,1 __ 1.-.-..

The jocl;o_v's idea was to race the horse's head off and then pull him in the stretch. making it appear as if the animal had tired. Baldwinhad instructed the jockto play a waiting :,':`.me and make his bid"toward the tin- ish; The horse simply outclassed his "t`t):ll[)2'li)_V. however. and he didn't show Lnny indications of leg wenriness what- t-\"ur as he rounded the backstretch on the rail a. couple of lengths in front of his eld. Baldwin could see. however, that the crooked jock was sawing the horse's head off in his efort to take him back to the rack. When the horses \'.'t'l`e still a hundred feet from him, Baldwin let out n. yell to uttra'ct his jot-key s attention. and then he ashed -his two guns in the sunlight and bawl- ed at the jock: ll 6`! nrutvn Glunb I\nIvan a I-tnn rvnn nann, \ `Leggo that hox'se s head, you mon- key devil, and go onand win or I'll shoot you so full of holes that you won't_hold molasses!

Then he gave Bald- win's horse his head. sat down to ride for all that was in him, and the horse under him cantered in ten lengths to the good on the bit. , As long as `Lucky Baldwin was on the eastern turf after that no jockey ever tried to YI~ one of his horses.
