The Track Tfll to/thi Liking of Both ^Horses and Yet the Trick—'.' Couldn't lie Doai./'^'

TWO RECORDS, HOWEVER, CAPTURED.

TWO FASTEST MILES ON ONE TRACK AND FASTEST QUARTER.

After Desperate Stro|| l« the Terre Rat« Entry litnrtri Otflori to Bally Tolet.

(From Tuesday's Dally.)

The two fastest miles ever gone in harness oVer one track in a day, the fasrt&st

quarter ever paced, and yet the world's rec

ord stands at Star Palmer made it at Ueftd-

ville! The track 1748 perfect and the weaiher

conditions Were just right, but' there was a

big "IF" in both the Star Pointer and Joe

Patchen trials. In last week's race at Milwaukee between Pointer and Patchen the footing was hard and uneven. In the second heat the "Pinter Moss" broke His harness and when McClary took him back the bit pressed hard on the ulcerated tooth tha: hit3 greatly troubled Pointer for several wneks. Mr. Murphy, his owner, thought it well to make a change in the bit, and substituted a snaffle bit for a link bit. About 4 o'clock ihe big bay horse was brought out on the track and was given many hearty cheers as he passed down the stretch. After scoring once everything was in readiness for the great effort. Old Abe Lincoln, driven by Sam Fleming, was to set the pace to the half. As McClary nodded for the word there was a hush came over the vast assemblage. The bay was not hugging the po'.e and the eighth was done in tha slo»- time of 16 seconds. This was not a record-breaking clip and when the half was reached in 81% seconds, there was a disappointing "Oh" went up from the crowd. It was then made sure that the world's record could not be equalled, bat it was not known till afterward that fearing to take hold of Pointer lest his tender mouth might cause him to break, he drove wide of the pole. The second quarter was a little slower than the half, being reached in 1:01%. Here "Buck," Mr. Marks' pole pony, toek up the pace and from here on was witnessed the greatest recorded flight of time. Around the turn the great eon of Brown Hal came like a meteor. A breath is drawn and he is at th® three-quar-ter pole in 1:29%. The third quarter had been paced in 28 seconds, faster than the "Pinter Hoss" had ever before done the -trick. Oh he came, down the stretch like a whirlwind. The mile was done in two minutes and a half second. The last half was done at the rate of a mile in 1:57%.

Joe Patchen readily shared the honors with Star Pointer when he appeared on the track. The great son of Patchen Wilkes is loved because he never knows when he is beaten. Always a consistent performer, the handsome black horse Is always ready to do battle and "never say die." Pointer's failure had oast a gloom over the assemblage that it was hoped Patchen might dispel. Charley Dickerson was up behind "puck" to set the pace. Patchen'e easy stride is deceive that when John DIckerson nodded for the word it could not be discerned how fast the black horse was going. When, however,-the eighth was reached in 17 seconde the clip was seen to be too slow, Patchen gets away easily, he likes the Terre Haute track and yet he only reached the quarter ih 31*4 seconds. The speed to the half was a little faster, it being reached in 1:02. Here Fleming joined with Abe Lin* coin, and both runners set a merry gait. Now Patchen Is going some and the fast third quarter is donfe in 25 seconds. Dickersoa urges him in the stretch, the runners come up on either" side and Dickerson lifts him under the wire, knocking off a quarter second from his record. The last quarter was in 80% secpnd^. 2:1 7 Trot, Purse #1,500.

Starter Sweeney gave the word to a field of nine in the 2:17 "class trot, three or four attempts to get the word not serving to mar a good start. JSagl.e Flannigan sold for $25, Philonides $7 and field $11. Your Uncle George Fuller took the pole at the tlirn with Philonides, the battle to the half being between the hPOWn horse, Eagle Flannigan, and Alkoran. Scott Hudson was going some down the back stretch but at the threequarters he went into the air and Philonides had things his own way. The time Was 2:13%. It is a new mark for the King Wilkes, his previous record being 2:14ViAs tke field got to the first turn there was a mix-up "between Mackey and Eagle Flannigan, in which the gray gelding went down. His driver, George Saunders, got a badly ipralned ankle but the judges decides that no blame is attached to either driver. •Before the second heat Philonides sold for 950 field $38. Eagle Flannigan took the pole at tfcfe eighth. It was a battle between Flannigan. Philonides, Woodford C. and Mackey to the half. Down the three-quar-ter stretch Woodford O. and Philonides were lapped, but at the pole the Itedfleld horse bobbled. Mackey, with Philonides on his wheel, was crawling up on Flannigan when the King Wilkes horse broke. It was then a procession home. Time, 2:1314.

There was a decided shifting in the betting before the third heat, the ease with which Seott Hudson landed the previous beat making the Eagle Bird gelding a favorHe, 50 to $26, over the field. Woodford thinking it about time to do something came up after the pole horse. He and Mackey went as a. pair to the three-quarters, where 6plan came up with Alkoran. Woodffird C. breaking just then, the McGregor gelding outfooted the Mackey, Splan making one of his old time finishes for second place, Flannigan finished the Wile in 2:1S% wsil whhin himself. it was now more than a two to one shot, Flannigan selling At" $25 &nd the tleid $10. As in the two previous &eais, Mackey was the contending horse while Woodford d. was up in the front set as before. It was again a procession, with Flannigan winner of the heat and race.

Into the third quarter these -three, with Sally 'foler well up, were bunched, every inch o' the way being fought. Saily Toler went into the air at the [Bree-qUafter pole, leaving Silver Chimes and Satin Slippers to fight it out with the leader. Parker S. appeared to finish the mile easy in 2:08%.

There was a hew Richmond in the field in the fourth heat, for Dick Wilson had got his Alma Chimes gelding to going about right. He set sail after Parker S. right at the start and would not be denied an inch of the road, into the stretel# they came as.a pair, and in bruising finish Silver Crimes came under the wire a nose ahead of Parker S.

About efery driver was before the Judges telling tales of woe, but the score stood as they finished. The bookmakers were all at sea before the fifth heat and no pools Were sold. It was thought by some that Fleming would have Parker S. take tHlflgS easy but the gray geldlhg was out after it and stayed the route to the three-quarter pole. Up in front seat were Sally Toler, Satin Slippefs and Miitoa S., the latter fighting it out with John Hussey's mare that finished the mile 2:09%.

Five bruising heatfi had been paced, and the three freshest in the lof were Sally Toler, Milton S. and Satin Slippers. The latter had been a consistent performer but could not quite reach, while Milton S. was getting good. Sally Toler, however, still had some speed bottled up and after a struggle up to the half the sweet little mare had only to do the mile in 2:11% to win the richest stake she has yet captured.

It was after 5 o'clock when the 2:28 trot was railed. Eight green ones took the word &nd the first heat furnished a surpriw party. The Iowa people have had a good thihg in Pearline.

The Black Victor mare had a mark of 2 24^4. but she set out to do some racing, and captured the heat in 2:12*4, knocking off twelve seconds from her record.

The crowd# of people began pouring into the cify *ith the coining up of the sun. Banners came in their wagons some people even walked in but the great cttm$ of jolly Visitors came on the railroads. At the Union Station between the hours of 10 and 11:30 there was a perfect j&ta. The early morning trains brought ia several hundred, but the later trains carried the recognized excursionists.

JOE. PAT CHEN, 2:01^.

(From Wednesday's Daily.)

From 12:30 -to fl o'clock Wednesday, or hi

five and a half' hours, eighteen heats were

reeled off. The average time for the eigh

teen heats was.2:12% and this, in view ci

the fact that one. race. was for youngsters,

ought to satisfy the most ardent admirer of Is""light harness_ racing.

It was a perfect d4y for racing and better

eport has never been «e,en on the four-cor*

nered track.

I sr.'Vf.v

The first trala of excursionists was brought in by the C. & B. I. This was the train from Goodland. It left Goodland at 5:30 in the morning and pulled Into the station here at,10:30 loaded to the,guards. The train .went down on the branch read to Brazil where a regular rush wag .jgede' for it. People stood in the aisles an^ oiLthe platforms and when the conductor ^eapzjd he could not possibly carry anoiher^ pae|eriger the ticket window was closed ,fnqflihe train pulied out tc- Otter Creek Junction and down to this city. It is.esLima,tj^d that this one train carried 900 people. N'o. cn the Vandalia brought 300 from Egingham and intermediate points. Theh th(e dulia train from the east unloaded ,^bout

The talent had played May Fern to win but when the race went ovet from Tuesday

with neither ct the two heats to her credit,

the betting was at sixes and sevens. The

ease and the fast'time in which Pearline C.

won the flrait heat would have made hor

a strong favorite but for her song and dance work In the second. It was anybody's race When the six came to take the word yesterday. Some thought May Fern had the speed of the party and ought to win hands down. This idea came from the fact that after handily winning the .fast heat yesterday (Ihlrd of race). In ,2:11%, she should make so poor a showing in the fourth, which event to Nancy Time in much slower time. How-

ever, the big Kentucky mare, landed the race in the seventh heat. The summary tells the story of the two-year-old pace. In the 2:21 pace Sam Fleming's three-year-old, "Indiana," made a creditable showing, demonstrating the fact that he is destined before aisolhet season tb travel in very fast company. In this race also the despisers ot hopples had a "facer" Sot Arlene Wilkes wore all kinds and "then gome." The gelding Tom Taggart was in the hunt for one heat, lowering his mark ten seconds.

What shall tie said of the 2:09 pace? The summary can give no idea of it nor can columns tell all the good things that were bottled up in those four heats. -It was a race that had to bo seen and as it is carried over till today the result Is in much tfoubU Aaantas, the winner ot the two first heats, tied -a -t:

world's record for four-year-olds by going the route in the first beat ki 2:0t% in the third heat he finished aa. eyelaih behind Pointer irt 2:06. 188 Trot, (ttaflalafeed Tuesday.)

When the 2:2i trot was called, with two heats gone on Tuesday, pools sold Medium Wood $10, field $25. May Fern sold favor* ite before the race started. It proved to be a long and tiresome race but the faith of those who bicked the sorrel mare was justified albeit there was much see-sawing. Is the opening heat yesterday Nancy Time was fighting It out with Medium Wood when she went to a tangled break. May Fern was coming strong and overhauling the leader. The Red Fern mare Won the heat la 2:11%. After the word was given in the fourth heat Medium Wood went up In the aif. 'la the back stretch Nancy! Time took the lead and was never headed. May Fern finished third coming wide down, the stretch while Medium Wood was second. In the fifth Nancy Time and Medium Wood went like a team up the back stretch and to the half. iMay Fern was coming strong and easily overhauled the leaders at the three quarter pole. Nancy Time 'went to a break In the stretch, Medium Wood second.[ May Fern finished the mile good and strong In 2:12%. There was more guess* work in the sUth. Medium Wood took the lead at the quarter and except fOr a bobble ai the half he was never headed. In spite of Nancy Time's break in the sixth she fought It out with Scott Hudson's gelding to the half, the latter making tvo bobbies. Dick Wilson's mare broke again at the ttrird quarter fbtrt^iif-

quite reach Medium Wood that finished the mile in 2:14%. With only three left in the seventh Nancy Time alone could prolong tne long drawn out race. May Fern was even with Medium Wood at half and as iMedlum Wood went to a break when Nancy Time overhauled him. May Fern won heat and race. May Fern, s. m., by Red

There was nothing In the class to give the hay filly an argument and she won the two heats off the reel.

Time—2:20*4 2:228:21 Pace, Purse $1,000. •The 2:21 pace was "a hoss race from eend to eend." Pools had sold Personnette $30 Arlene Wilkes $20 Indiana $10 Tom Taggart $10 and field $20, showing that the talent was all at sea. Anne Lee drew the pole but Fleming's little gelding forged to the front soon after the word was given. PerBonnette broke at the quarter but squaring away was on even terms with Indiana ai the half, Anne Lee third. It was Arlene Wilkes in the lead in the etretch where,Personnette went to a tangled break. Arlene Wilkes and Indiana finished but a nose be* hind Arlene Wilkes. Time 3:18*.

Arlene and Indiana went as a pair to the half, Personnette a good third. The black mare had moved up to second place at the third quarter and in a bruising finish she captured the beat from Arlene and Indiana. The judges seemed dissatisfied and before the third beat put John Hussey up behind Indiana and George West in Hutching*' place. The third heat convinced the Judges that an injustice had been made In the substitutions, for Indiana breaking at turn dropped back to last place. The three*y«aft* old showed that Fleming had handled ulm as well as could be done. Tom Taggart took the pole in the third, Persocaeue giving him an argument to the three quartet where the black mare gives up the struggle. Taggart came under the wire in a jog, lbW^ ering hlB record from 2:20Vt to 2:12U)ne heat was all .Ta*gart wanted and after

The 2:0$ Pace, Which Goes Over Till Today, Was Sensational.

Not since the Hal Pointer-Frank Agan race here has as much money gone Is the pool box on one race aa was laid Tuesday evening and yesterday on the 2:09 pace. The backers of Planet were not daunted by his sixty hour journey from Maine nor were

so the field found many to back, it. Every one of the four heats was a horse race and in the first Ananias reeled off the milo in 2:06&, thus equalling the world's record for four-year-oids made here two years ago by Be Sure. The brown 'son of Patron did even better than that for there was but an eyelash -between him and Planet in the third heat, paced in 2:06.

When the field of fast sidewheelers came out every one felt that there was to be a "hoss race." After taking the word, with Planet at the pole, the Bonnie McGregor horse soon yielded tbe place and it Was Miss Williams, Judge Swing, Ananias and Bogash in the order named a£ the quarter. Into the back stretch Bogash overhauls Miss Williams but at the half Ananias passes the leaders. Before the third quarter is reached it is Swing in second place and Bogash in third. Thus they finished, Ananias tying a world's record in 2:06%-

Ananias was never robbed of the pole in the second heat but nevertheless it was a "hoss race from eend to eend.'' Bogash was on tho wheel of the Cleveland horse afci the three lights and couldn't be shaken off. Back a length were Judge Owing and Miss Williams, with Planet moving up strong as the leader reached the hcJf. In the stretch: Planet went to a break and Bogash and Brightlight was 14ft to fight it out with the leader. The time 2:07.

Ananias again had Bogash to deal with around the turn with Judge Swing a good', third. Giles Noyes and Planet that had' been trailing were now coming fast and as the half was reached Noyes showed in front, Planet a good third. It was a battle royai between Planet and Ananias down the stretch. It Was see-saw from the flag, Planet again made a bobble but Starr took I him back and they passed under the wire, Planet a scant head to the good. The time was 2:06. There was some delay by the judges in rendering a decision on this heat, but when made the opinion ot nearly all horsemen wa% that .the Judges had done the right thing in giving the heat to Planet,

Planetwwa| ."now gelling $50 to $25 ^leld, the talent believing him unbeatable when the heats are split up. The start, could hardly be called a good one as the field was ahead of the pole horse. Miss Williams took the pole at the eighth and Noyes moved up to -second place when Bogash broke. At the half Planet had moved up to fourth place. Miss Williams being in the lead, but turning into the third quarter he dropped baok. (Ananias was third at the three quarter and" coming strong on the outside. tAt this point Giles Noyes too* the lead and the horse of homely name was never headed. Time 2:08.
