NANCY COULDN'T DO 1T.
DoDle Tries tho Little Mare at Her Own
Mark, But Fails.

DODle Tries the Little Mare at Her Own
Mark, But Fails.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug. 20. Nancy Hanks was
sent today against her record of 2:O7l4, made
last Wednesday, and fell short of the mark
She trotted truly game mile, but could do
no better than 2:00lI, the time by quarters
being 1924 :09l5, ;39, 2:O9H. Her failure
TO beat the record was a disappointment
though the feeling was general that two such
miles in one week as Nancy made on Wed
nesday were too mucn 10 expect OF any horse.
The feature of tho last day of the meeLing,
beside Nancy Hanks, was the pacing of Jay
Eye Sec against his own trotJing record OF
2:lO Tie went around the track in 2:0S$l,
his time by quarters being 32H, :OI$I,
] 1874, 2:0Sl4. Had the same conditions of
temperature and wind prevailed today as on
"Wednesday the chances are that Jay Eye
See would have come perilously near tho
mark of 2:G5l4 set two days ago. The
weather was cool and a stiff breeze blowing.
j. l. Case, his owner, VINO drove INN, is san
gulno that Jay Eye Sec can do much better
than his time of TO-DAY, and the little black

-FOUR ROUNDS OF VERY HARD FIGHTING
Hall Was All But Knocked Out In the Sec
ond Round-ne Recovcrs IN Won
derfui shape and Wins
Game Battle.

LONDON, Aug. 20.- Another account OF the
Hall Pritchard fght says that little advan-
taEe was gained by either OF the men in the
first round. Prtchar1's supporters felt con-
fident that their man would win aud el50 to
9l00 was offered on pritchard as the men
cane up for the second. In this round
Prtchard Knocked Holl clean off his pins
with a luft-hand counter Nine seconds sped
by before Hall got up. He kept out of dan
ger and recovered so quickly that he was
going as fast as Pritchard at the call OF time.
Daring the period of rest between rounds,
two or three Mitcnel men gave sage advi ce
to Hall. who still wore a smile OF confidence
In the other corner Baldock said ITS u
cinch for you, Ted; you have only get to
finish him again in the middle"
Both men stepped to the scratch at tho
word Hall ducked from Prichard's lead
anu banged his left on the latter's mouth.
Before Prichnrd could recover Hall once more
smashed him on the left eye, which was now
cut and discoored.
"Pn bet glOO that Hall leaves the ring
without mark" said Mitchell, and Hall,
with a smile, again landed heavily on
Pritchards lert eye Pritchard now seemed
nonplussed Twice he tried without effect
10 get OH MS opponent, uull III luc IdSI
fifteen seconds Hall delivered heavily with
both hands. Pritchard was fought into the
corner of the ring aud was having bad
time OF it when the ond OF the round saved
him from a knockout Hall at this iuncture
put in tremendous amount of work.
Took Lots of whipping.
In the fourth round Pritchard left his cor
ner and looking very much flushed and evil
IDENTIFY in distress. in direct contrast to Hall.
Hall took the middle of the ring full of fight
and confidence. Pritchard, however, was
first at work, and no encouraged his sup
porter5 by twice delivering his left on Halls
mouth. The Australian only smiled, and
from tho way he weaved in it was seen he
was only bdlng his time TO land on his OPP
poncut
Pritchard was still strong on his legs and
nobody thought the end was so near.
A Dusv rally followed. Then breaking
away, Hall got close in and shot his right
across Pritchards check. The blow was
little too high, but it knocked tho Londvner
to the boards, where ho lay just seven sec
onds, Then ho was up again and made
plucky effort TO keep the Australian away.
Hall, however, again weaved in, hooking his
left in Pritchard's chin ana smashing his
right on the point.
The effect was instantaneous. Prltchard
fell on the floor on fis back. Here he lay
tor a second or two and then rolling over re.
mained motionless until the ton seconds were
called out one by one by the timekeeper.
When they had elapsed Hall was declared
the winner Mitchell hclsted Hall shoulder
high.
Hall received the congratulations of his
friends, while Pritchard, who broke down
altogether, had the sympathy of no smul!
number of those present. Tho contest lasted
thirteen minutes and fifty seconds.

way to the bay BaS9i,had more or less
trouble with apo apgg whiskey ed billy
goat. AS the dqasb passed along this
particular goat would run out and hover
around, waitingforoh good chance to
use its head for aibattering ram against
one of the dogs egf9Hs goat seemed to
pick out Marc A1tohy as an especial
target, and several lights between dog
and goat were interrupted by the dogs
master. tiCJR
The other day StiTo dogs went down to
the beach rs ussiSli. aud as usual that
bllly-goat was 6nn hand waiting for
chance to mix up, With Marc Antony.
But trouble was Savefted for time and
the dogs swan anoupd In the bay, while
the goat stood arQeHd in pensive sort
of way and watched his enemies romp
around in the water. After n good
swim the dogs came out and be-
gan chasing each other about on
the sands, paying no attention to
the goat Finally one of the dogs
chased Marc Antony up toward whore
that goat was waiting and watching
Marc ran on ahead, and then, ms is the
fashion of all dogs at play, turned, and,
planting his forefeet well forward,
waited for the other dog to come up.
1t was at this oppor-
tune moment that the billy
goat went into action. Lowering his
head the animal charged, bowling the
canine over and over. 1t was almost u
minute before that dog realized just
what had happened. Then Marc An
tony made dash for the goat and
caught it by the back of the neck. The
goat struggled, but the dog continued
dragging It's foe toward the bay, never
Offering to bite. Slowly but surely the
big ST. Bernard moved toward the
water. DR.. Regensburger shouted to
tho dog to drop the goat and then tried
to whip the canine into submission.
But the dog understood his business.
He held on and dragged the struggling
billy out into the bay aud then deliber-
ately kept poking that goats head
under the water until it was drowned.
Then the sagacious dog loosened his
hold and allowed the body of the dead
goat to float away on the waters of the
bay, Z

Block the Frogs.

In Michigan it is unlawful for railway
companies To neg ect to block the frogs
on their roads, SO that the feet of their
employees may not be caught therein. A
switchman, while uncoupling cars, had
his feet caught in unblocked frog and
was injured He sued for damages and
proved that other frogs in the yard were
unblockea, and that the yardmaster had
been notified Of their condition The
court decided that it was no defense
that the company had employed men to
keep all frogs blocked, and that proper
material had been furnished for that
purpose, because the negligence OF the
employees was the negligence OF the
company.

Their Yards Today-Paying the Strikers.
BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. 19.-As tho day
closes the troops have reached nearly all the
posts assigned and even this afternoon the
Lehigh and Erie have begun in earnest the
resumption of their freight traffic. The
Lake Shore has now enough men
and is waiting until they know that
absolute protection is at hand before
clearing their yaros. This WORK will be
commenced in dead earnest tomorrow. 1t is
clear now that while the soldiery is here the
roads will be able to resume and continue
their freight traffic. Should the strike be
extended east and west, then complications
would arise that can be met and measured
only when they have arrived.
1t trauspireS that the Erie yesterday ran
its pay car from the east through East
Buffalo into the yards at Louisiana street
Evidently tho strikers mad been notified TO
report there for their pay aud dismissal.
The men gathered without demonstrations
about the car, beng held at some distance,
however, by at least 200 troops who sur
rounded IT. A passageway was made by
TWO lines of soldiers and through this pas
sageWay the men were permitted TO pass up to
the pay window, whore they received their
envelopes In grim silence and turned away.
the pay car OF the Lehign road rolled up TO
the station at Williams street this afternoon.
Tne strikers were waiting near. The car
was surrounded by number of troops and
the men were admitted to receive their pay
The Lackawanna company also paid OF its
employees today.
While II may not be stated thai the Erie
and Lehigh Valley officials are alarmed, they
are appreEenslve that II a contest Is 10 come
between the strikers and the troops it moy
fairly be expected tonight. The reasoning is
that WITH money IN thoir pockets the men, or
at least portion OF them, will soon have
liquor In their stomachs. Should this DO the
case, and tho officials feel IL is a reasonable
ASSUMPTION, thay fear the cool beads may
not oe aple 10 restrain the others aud that an
