The racing bill to he intro- duced at the first session of the legislature by Senator Nealon of San Francisco provides for a state racing commission of three members, which is empowered to contro! and regulate racing in California. Bookmaking is declared unlawful, and in its stead will be the parimu- tuel form of wagering by machines. A percentage of the commissions, not to exceed eight per cent, will be taken out of the money wagered, and one-fourth of the sum received will be turned over for the exclusive use of the state school fund.

A Veteran Australian Rider. Sydney Referee: The veteran rider, T. Donoghue, was again in evidence on Saturday. At the Mudgee meet- ing he was second on his mare, Te- hama, in the Opening Handicap, and later won the Havilah Welter on her. As Donoghye is fifty-eight years of age, he must be made of tough ma- terial. There is certainly nothing of the "too old at forty" about him. Bases on Balls.
