WALKERS WHO SOON GREW WEARY OF
CHASING PHANTOM GOLD.

Garden six.day eo-as.you- u-please contest. the
venture Is disastrous financial failure. and 1t
is assured that somobody will lose great deal
Of money. The contestants can't lose. how
ever. and will 1Rht out the week for the rich
prizes which the Garden syndicate have guar
anteed. 1t seems pity that bad management
has affected the success OF the enterprise. for
1t promises to be an interesting contest. and 1t

man. and Cartwright. though Moore and relia-
bls old Dan Herty are by no means out Of the
hunt. The latter's trainer says the Boston boy
is all right and running up TO his schedule.
and does not mind the long lead the others
have taken. The most DANGEROUS man Is

man that ever ran Charley Rowsll on his feet.
and he will make determined effort to win.
as he Ia deeply incensed at the management.
and adopts this novel method Of revenge.
The pace set from the start has been hot
one. Little ROSY. checked Curley. Tom Howarth
from Philadelphia. "Lepper" Hughes. Hege-
man. Cartwright, Guerrero, and Connors hung
on each others heels the first six hours. and
there was but little difference In their scores;
while Moore Bennett. Hart. and Herty were
but q iew miles behind: Then the fresh-look-
