CHICAGO, Oct. 2O.-At the coming
election in November a superintendent of
schools is to be chosen aud today was the
day of registration for that event. Appli-
cations for registration by women were
very numerous, especially in the fashion
able districts, and they came well posted
on the law and methods of procedure In
registration under the statute said to be
in their favor passed by the last leglsla-
ture. In some places the boards of regis
tration declined to receive their names.
In others their names were put upon the
registry books with all OF the blanks filled
except that stating whether or not the
person is a qualified voter. This leaves
the ladies a fighting chance at the polls
a chance they say they propose to take
the fullest possible advantage of. In
suburban towns many women's names
were put upon the register. In the aris-
~tocratic circles of Evanston the members
of the board of registration did not appear
at the polling place and about 100
prominent ladies met and formulated a
statement setting forth the facts. In the
city a formal protest against the refusal
of registry was made before the election
commissioners bv two ladies' who propose
to make a test case.

BEATS THE WORLD.
Sunol Plucks the Championship
Laurels from Maud S.
And Beats the Record for q
Mile TrOt.
The Event Witnessed by an
Enthusiastic Crowd.

STOCKTON, Cal, Oct. 20.-Sunol beat
the worlds record on the Stockton track
today. making a mile in 2:0st, beating
Maud s time by half a second. 1t was a
fast mile from the start and the mare
finished strong. After warming her up
with a three miles jogging and rubbing
down. Marvin came out at 5 o'clock this
afternoon to go against the record. At
the first attempt he nodded for the word
and she ran away alone, the runner wait
ing for her at the half. She went the first
quarter in 3la; the half In l:04 fat, the
three-quarters in 1877 and came home
strong and scored In 2:0St. There were
six timers and everv watch was the same.
The crowd went wild when the time was
made known.
LATER-The mare had been driven
four miles. one rather fast, when she was
found ready for the event OF her life. Tim
O'Brien OF the Palo stables was stationed
at the half mile pole with a runner to
accompany Sunol to the finish, but she
went alone to the first halt mile. Marvin
President Shippee shouted go and Sunol
went out to win the record that Marvin
has been working for 80 long.
Sunol was guided along Just inside the
center of the track which had been pre-
pared for her and Marvin cautioned her
with his long drawn out, Whoa" to
keep her from becoming too excited.
She went to the quarter post in 3l2 sec
onds and kept on at her wonderful stride
to the half mile post in l:04 fiat.
Here Tim O'Brien came into the race
with the runner and as a start was made
on the second half an excited horseman
in the stand shouted, "1:04l She'll beat
it The mare came around the turn
faster than any man on the grounds ever
saw a trotter 20, and reached the three
quarter post in 1897. 1t was a great race
against time as she came down the stretch
to the finish. The excited timers shouted,
She's got it; She'll beat it,"
Supol came home in a magnificent
finish. Marvin knew he had the race
and he encouraged the mare. all the
while calling on her but not using the
whip. Everybody. shouted as she went
under the wire IN 2:0St. 1t was the
gamest finish ever seen on the race track
and the mare seemed to be proud OF her
performance.
Six timers compared their watches and
they were exactly the same. 2:0Sf. There
we're no watches on the ground to dispute
the correctness of the record, except to
make it faster bv a quarter of a second.
The crowd yelled like a lot of crazy
men and cheer after cheer went up fol
Sunol. Marvin was warmly congratulated
and as he was going to the stable hi
said; They will hammer at that figure
