At the word the horses were off cleverly
and on the first turn Condo went ahead
| and at the back was closely crowded by
Ashland and Joe Young. Condo was
unable to take the pole but on
the lower turn went ahead reaching
the home stretch a length ahead. Ashland
gradually gained but came out half neck
second, with Young third by a length
This strengthened the field in the mu-
! tuals and there was considerable wild bet

with Young a close second and Ashland a
! third. Ashland was gradually gaining at
the half and entering the stretch a length
! second. Here ne made another great rush
| reaching the wire an neck ahead.

part of the roads to venture more assist
ance in the line of making another great
success in the fair business.
Yesterday being Wichita day, all the
leading business establishments closed
doors. Onlya few of the less important
Job lot" concerns denied employees and
themselves chance to see the great fair
The firm of Stewart Bros. not only shut
up shop but presented their employees
with tickets, calling for over eighty
tickets. Some others acted similarly
The total number of tickets sold at the
grounds yesterday were fifteen thousand
seven hundred and sixty-four. The up
town offices sold for the day, the result of
sales for Thursday for the past two DAYS,
four thousand eight hundred and ninety
three. There were taken in twentv-one thou
sand seven hundred and fifty-seven tickets.
/ This does not take in the comps and the
/ season tickets which it is believed would
/ make the crowd on fair estimate twenty
/ five thousand people The estimate by
visitors run from fifteen to thirty-fve
thousand people, but the facts as given
will give clever foundation for a close
calculation.
THE LEADING FEATURE.
The leading race of the day was the race
in the 2:2O trot for a $1,000 purse. The
mutuals showed no one wanting to bet
except on Ashland Wilkes and Joe Young
for positions. There was no favOrite so
much of a favorte as to secure any money
against the field. The Joe Young money
seemed to be on hand in abundance and
aside from the mutuals there were many
ir,to hot Il,
the mutuais accommodated the small fry
mostly. 1t is a conservative estimate to
say that 5000 changed hands on the race
between the two horses alone. There was
clever pools on Condo and Walter + also
but no big money on the side. The result
was that many were financially interested
in the race and were in fact intensely
interested. 1t was quite sure that the
race was for blood and that the owners of
Ashland and Young were looking at each
other seldom, but when they did it was
only a sharp glance. The feeling between
the two men was not side show to the
spirit of the mob. Everything was intensi-
fed and made lively The financially
interested got out on the track in front of
the grand stand and surged from one side
TO the other, scarcely giving the horses a
chance to get through. The police seemed
powerless and the mob had its way about
it, delaying everything and making things
at times decidedly unpleasant.
