INDEPENDENCE, Aug. N.-This was a
gala day. The attendance was about 30
600. The five-year-old race was the CEN
ter of attraction. 1t has been estimated
that over 100000 will change hands on
this race alone. Nancy Hanks struck
out from the first for the prize, and
trotted it even with Allerton to the first
half. She then gained slowly, and at the
third quarter was length ahead. A
break for Allerton on the homestretch
gave the heat to Nancy in 2:l2. The
second heat was repetition of the first.
In the third Allerton had an advance of
half a length, but broke badly down the
stretch, and Margaret S. trotted a speedy
quarter here, but was compelled to re-
sign the place to Allerton at the half.
At the homestretch Allerton safely
steered, but lost time in the effort, and
Nancy won the heat and race by three
lengths, again in the wonderful time of
PIP.
