The piees de resistance of the afternoon
was the free-for-all race.
The four best sides heelers in the State
were driven out. Andy Mcdowell was up
behind Punkett. Corey drove Dr. Swift,
Tom Heating steered Our Dick, while
Laferty handled the ribbons behind w.
Wood. Great was the crowd of bettors
around the poolbox. Our Dick brought
s65, W. Wood SIG and the field $40 There
were nine scores before the signal was
given to good start for the first heat. Our
Dick with the pole went out in front, but
i'lunkett was soon even with him, and the
pair were pacing like a double team at the
quarter a length in front of w. Wood, DR..
Swift trailing. Our Dick broke on the back
stretch and W. Wood then took second
place, but broke soon afterward. leaving
Plunkett FIVE lengths in the lead. Heating,
however. soon set sail after him with Our
Dick. and, overhanling him half way down
the homestretch, Heating made splendid
drive for the heat Gradually forging in
front amid intense excitement, he outfooted
and beat Piunkett by a length at the wire.
Wood finished last. The time (2:12S41, con-
sideriDg that the track was not at It's fast
est. was splendid.
Our Dick now sol for $40. and the whole
field only brought Sl2 against him. Again
the iavorite and Punkett paced away in the
lead. They had | all between them, and
while Andy Mcdowell was driving all he
knew behind Plunkett. Our Dick was going
like the wind even up, coming away near
ing the wire and winning handly by q
short length, with Heating looking around.
The half was made in l :0s, and they went
the last half in 1 :06h. w. Wood acted very
49, ILL Of tba frn
the tive-eghths pole. Laferty claimed the
patrol judges horse interfered with him and
broke him up, but most Of the spectators
thought differently; in fact that Wood
tangled up at least sixty yards before he got
to the patrol judge. However. the judges
lei him start again after long and earnest
Capitalization.
In the third and last heat Oar Dick trailed
to the quarter. Plunkett and w. Wood out
in front. In the lower turn Our Dick
closed up on the leaders. 1t was splendid
race from the head of the stretch to the
wire between Dick, Plunkett and W..
Wood. On they came, nose and nose, in
perfect whirlwind OF speed. The people
in the stand rose to their feet and cheered
wildly as the speedy PAGERS flashed along
the stretch. Our Dick demonstrated the
fact that he Is tile daddy of the lot" this
side Of the Rockies and that no PAGER pro-
duced on the coast has any business with
him. He won under punishment by neck
from w. Wood, who in turn beat Plunkett
three parts of length When the time,
| 2:12 fat, was hung out the cheering was re-
newed.
This one heat was worth all the tedious
racing seen at the meeting. 1t was superb.
and those who were fortunate enough 20
witness it can 90 into winter quarters and
talk it over and over again by the fireside
glow. DR.. Swift was dstanced.
