quarter of the territory tributary to the
Twin Cities to witness the events of the
day. Nancy Hanks, OF course, was the
one predominating attraction.
Sandwiched in between the races
came the parade of Martha Wilkes,
2:0S, and Jack, 2:12115, and also the un-
precedented feat OF Nancy Hanks-re-
ducing the worlds record. recorded in
another column.
The day was the grandest success
ever visited upon the Minnesota State
Fair management. The attendance was
diversely estimated at from 10000 to
$4,000 people. The forenoon was de
voted to viewing the exhibits, and the
afternoons racing programme chained
everybody to near vicinity to the rae
ing track. The grand stand, constructed
with view to affording complete ac-
commOdations to any possible crowd,
was filled to suffocating crush long
before the races were called The
reporters stand, stuck away up in the
grand stand, was Overrun, and no
newspaper man was permitted to do
any work. Should a reporter suggest
that 1t would be the proper caper to va
cate and permit the newspaper workers
to occupy the space, bad as it is, that
had been allotted by the management it
only provoked derlsive SMILE
The first event was the unfinished
trOt in the 2:21 class, and Phoebe Wilkes
won in Two straight heats, after Reina
and Greenleaf had taken two heats the
evening before. Phoebe, OF course, had
won a heat Tuesday evening before
closing darkness stopped the sport.
King Grover had really no competition
in the 2:45 class, but the other two
events were unfinished. Kenoma won
heat and Kitty r won two heats in the
go pacing class in very fast time, and
then Kenoma met with serious acei-
dent. He is noble black stallion, only
four years of age. and is owned by S. B.

first race he ever started in and he won
the first heat in 2:23 with magnificent
ease. He is an inbred Morgan, by Herod
and out of Nancy. As explained, this
was his first race, and he is an animal of
high mettle. 1t was almost Impossible
to control him, and he broke frequently.

She battered down OH the dusty track
In the strong breeze, and, when the fin

out through the gate and on the track,
rrying with frenZied excitement for an
official announcement of the time. Ev-
erybody now knew that the record had
been approached, If not broken, and a
good many Insisted that 2:0615 would be
marked I'D.
The time was 2:07 fiat" shouted DIR.
Evans, and hats went into the air and
the shout that followed was deafening.
While the great numbers could not hear
a single word that had been said from
The judges stand, they knew intuitively
shat the record had been broken, and
She excitement that reigned beggarS
description. The police were practically
!sowerless. Indeed, the blue coats went
wild themselves. for they are but human
and susceptible TO the impulses of COM
mon everyday people, autt they were as
curious as any one to know what had
really happened. Suddenly they seemed
to realize that they had been dereiIct,
and they shouted themselves hoarSe in
frantic efforts to clear the track. But
what could they do? The people were
determined to actually embrace the lit
tie queen. Arms were thrown around
her neck as she came walking back
down past the judges stand, and one
enthusiast even kissed her. but she re-
sented such familiarity, and nipped the
Venturesome votary on the arm. Finally
way was made, and the mare was taken
bac to her stable.

heat. for running, and his driver did his
utmost to win the third heat, and he
held the horse so hard that he was only
9th. Something like a dozen yards
from the finish he jumped into the air
again, and he crossed his legs and broke
both bones of his right hind leg just be-
low the hook. He was pulled up with
the leg swinging and gvrating
helplessly. No sooner was he stopped
than ne laid down with piteous cry.
1t was a sad sight. Dr.. Rowell, "a
Minneapolis veterinarian, set the
bones, and the noble beast laid
operation. 1t is thought that the horse
will be saved, although it is certain that
its racing career is ended. He will be
available for stud duty, however.
Only one heat was trotted in the 2:25
class. 1t was won easily by Pratt &
Watson's Sirius in 2:1915. The race will
be finished today.
Phoebe Finishes winner.
Pretty Phoebe Wilks demonstrated
her prowess i'll the postponed 2:21
trot. She had shown wonderful bursts
OF speed, but she was inclined to be un-
steady on her feet the previous even
ing. Her driver felt perfectly conf
dent after he had warmed her up for
her effort, although 1t had been pre-
dicted that Reina would prove dan
gerouS element. He lacks the courage
and endurance, for illustration, pos
sessed by Oswald's powerful aited
Greenleaf, and had the race been
finished Tuesday night there
could have been but one re-
suit. Greenleaf would have won.
The three horses went on the track
with one heat won by one of them,
Phoebe Wilkes. and two heats each in
for Reina and Greenleaf. Reina still
had good following in the betting for
the hope that the nights rest would
have fully restored her to her greatest
form. But her performance did not bear
out the prophecy, however. Greenleaf
never shows his greatest performance
in the first stage Of the race, and hence
he had no show for the first heat. Like
the first heat Tuesday. he traiIed long
way behind the entire mile. Phoebe
Wilkes made the pace throughout ia
slow time, with Reina we'll up. Green
leaf barely saved his distance. Time,
2:20.
The seventh heat was more exciting.
The three got off well together, and
they trotted handsomely around the
turn. with Phoebe slightly in the lead,
Reina second and Greenleaf last. The
pace was too speedy for Gov. Merriam's
performer, and she pulled up in the
