ONE MAN DID 1T.
Hutchinson Does Up ST. Paul All
Alone.

About 800 people saw the st. Paul
team thraShed by one man yesterday
afternoon. Hutchinson, the great up
shoot diamond artist, was at lis best. and
the local batsmen famed the air with
clock like regularity until the Iowan
had twelve Scalps dangling at his belt.
He not only pitched i'll magnificent form.
but brought in five of the seven men of
his team on hOme-run drives. Sowders
struck out nine men and was hit safely
but nine times, but four of the
hits were very long ones. The Hawk
eye aggregation opened with 'rocky''
playing, Murphy getting first on AL
Yord's tumble, Carroll going to the same
bag Oh Quinn'S muif OF AlVOrd7S throw,
and each swinging around a base on
passed ball. Pickett then hit the ball
along the right foul line and Hutchinson
threw it wild, Murphy scoring, but Car
roll was put out III trying to make the
plate from the second. After this the
PrOhibitionists played without a skip
and st. Paul never had a ghost of
show. to make run. In the
second inning Macullar and Alvord
made hits and Van Dyke reached first
on fielder'S choice, Macullar being run
down between third and the plate.
Hutchinson then smashed the sphere
over the right field tence. In the fourth
Van Dyke reached first on Reilly's
tumble and Hutchinson planted the
ball thirty feet outside the left field
fence. In the seventh Sage got base
OIL balls, took two bases Oh sacrifices
and tailed on StearnS' hit, and IN the
eighth Macullar hit the leather outside
the wall at left. The score follows:

SARATOGA RACE TRACK, Aug. o.
Rain fell heavily last night, and the
track to-day was a sea of mud. The
weather was cloudy and threatening,
which prevented more than a fair at
tendance. For the first dash Catoon
got the best of good start and was
never headed, winning by two lengths.
The favorite finished second. In the
second race Won Tromp, third choice at
to l, took the lead after passing the
hrst quarter and won under a pull
by three lengths from the favor
lite, Allentown. In the third race
Pee Weep was the favorite, but was
never prominent. Ton boy, to l,
led from end to end, and won in a can

shot, beat the favorite, King Crab, by
three lengths in the fourth, and Kedar
Khan, at 5 to 1, won the last race easily
by five lengths after dead heat with

FLYERS IN HARNESS,
Surprises at the Trotting Meeting
in Chicago.

CHICAGO, Aug. 22.-Two thousand
persons were present at the second
days meeting of the Northwestern
Breeders association. The track was
hard and fast. The first event was for
s., 600 stake for horses in the 2:27 class,
1t brought out good-sized field
The favorite of course was the Roches-
ter surprise, who brought $50 against
S27 on Seymour Belle, Sc on the Jones
mare and S12 for the rest. Jacks back
ers had no reason for regret, as he won
three heats right off the reel. Belle
was his only dangerous COMPETE
tor, and in the second heat
Budd Doble just succeeded in
getting him under the wire ahead of
Belle by scant nose. The second race
was for the 2:1S class of PAGERS for
purse of $4,000. Ed Amman and Roy
Wilkes sold for s31 and s25 respectively,
while the field brought $13. Raven Boy
took first and second heats with ease and
he became hot favorite at $50
against Ed Aunou, who brought to,
and the field which sold for SIS. The
next surprise took place in the follow
ing three heats, when Harry u, who
was not supposed to be in the race, won
as he pleased. The second heat was
made in 2:1554. and was productive of a
rafting finish between Raven Boy and
Wilkes, the eventual winner of the race,
finished fourth. The third event was
interesting only for the last heat, which
was trotted in 1926 at 6:45 o'clock. Sally
COssack and Diatonic were the only start
ers. and the race proved snap for the
mare. Sandwiched between these events
was trot against 2:40 for cup by Cir
fiue. She made it in 2:31I. To-mor-
row will be the great day of the meet
ing. Clingstone and Prince Wilkes will
trOt for a stake of $1,000, and there will
be several other extra events. Axtell,
an Iowa two year old with a record
of 2:31A, will trot against the
best two-year-old record made by Bell
Boy of 2:26. The famous son of EIec-
tioneer will aarive in the morning, and
those who attend will see the trotter
which was recently sold at auction for
$50, 900. Summaries follow:
