Free For All Race.
Allen Maid led the party away from the
wire but broke on the Turn. Johnny Smoker
went to the front closely followed by Prince
Mac, and then President Clough, who was
behind the bay gelding Joe Braden, passed
the Maid, who was perfectly unmanagaple.
She settled to her Work now and then only
to break worse than before a few rods
further on. Johnny Smoker held a length
ahead without an effort all the way down
the back stretch past the half and into the
final turn. President Clough had mean
while got control of Joe Braden and he did
some pretty pacing, closing the opening
with each stride until at the head of the
stretch his distance had been saved and he
was sent to get into the thickest Of the fray.
Prince Mack forged to level terms with Al
Orth's little brown performer, and at the dis
lance flag showed head TO the front. Mike I,
Cannon gave the gamey little PAGER one
light stroke with the whip and he Tegained |
his lost ground, but it was an exciting finish. |

Smoker made the first turn first, with Prince |

became manifest that the general fair presi- |
dent is not mechanic in race. He failed |
to control his speedy bay. Moreover Braden |
needs more work than he has had inflicted |
upon him TO get his spirit tanned. II was g |

stretch Prince came up level and a hundred |

ever. He urged Smoker to better execution |
and Mac was only on his wheel down the |
straight stretch to the turn. Mac was game |

to shake him off. In this way they dashed |

Third Heat-When the horses were called
up for the third heat in the free-for-all pace
Charley Niles was placed behind Prince Mac.
Just why this was done is not apparent for
the Prince was doing the execution of his
life IN crowding Smoker TO nose winning.
Smoker led away, but Mac made a gamey
struggle and kept right on Smokers wheel,
and then down the stretch il was an inspir-
ting sight, and a thrill ran through the
audience. Macs nose showed at the half
when Smoker went TO a standstill break and
Prince shot ahead. II had not been particu-
larry fast up TO even this point, although ex
citingly close. Cannon was confident to the
break, and then he knew it was all up. Mac
