Mystic PARK RACE TRACK, MEDFoRD.
Mass, October 2O.-Alix. 2:03sl, and Dl-
rectum, 2:0511, met here to-day for purse
Of $1,000 and Alix won. Directum to-
night occupies stall, sore, lame, and as
discouraged as a race horse can be. The
spectators numbered nearly $4,000 and
never were weather conditions more favor
able for a great contest. The air was as
balmy as a day in spring; the sun
shone warm and undimmed and there was
no wind. Early in the day tho people went
Oirectum-mad. Every move Of the black
stallion was cheered. Every betting man
seemed TO be Fastening 10 back the favor
ite. Pools sold at 500 TO SS5 in Directum's
favor, and Alix money did not seem plen-
tiful. Just before the race, however, this
was changed. The AliX people seemed sud
denly 10 gain confidence, and it was SlOO TO
800
Alix had the pole in the first heat, and
after the word was given IL was only a
question Of how many lengths she was to
lead.
Without skip or false motion she won the
heat easily. In the second heat the great
stallion again met defeat. A slight sore.
ness brought on catastrophe. A misstep
in an attempt to save the sore foot tore on
the quarter boot and inflicted cut nearly
as large as a half dollar. After that Di-
rectum's fate 10 the race was sealed and
there was nothing 10 be done but TO with
draw him from the contest. The nrst heat
was made in 200 aud the second in 2:l49+
After an examination OF Directum by the
judges, Hickok was permitted TO withdraw
him and the race was given to Alix. The
nnQrfpF
Los: three-quarters 40; mile 2:l4%.
Alix next appeared for an exhibition
mile, and seeming 10 realize her easy vic
tory over her black mate, came down the
stretch with rush and started
for the lower turn with run
ner driven by Nelson, amoling
along three lengths behind. 1t was won
derful exhibition which showed the ganey
endurance of the western wonder, and she
finished with loose relns and beautiful
gait in 2:07S%.
The quarter was made in S2k; half
l :03SI, and the mile in 2:019I.
The heats in the 2:l6 trot were sand
wiched between those Of the big race. SUB
