masthead of the Terre Haute race track.
The Baron Wicks colt, Oakland Baron,
went the second heat IN the 300 trot in
ZIG, thus lowering the worlds record
made by Boreal on Monday one and a
quarter seconds. He had to fight for it
with the good colt Axworthy, by AXtell,
the latter finishing but head behind. In
the free or-aI trot mark was hung up
that is likely to be shot at for many a
long day. The track was just right and
it was an ideal racing day. Pixley was
bad actor, and It took dozen attempts to
get the field away, Ryland T. two lengths
back. The Idaho gelding trailed to the
half, where Stewart began to drive him.
He bad laid back too long, but even as it
was the gelding of uncertain breed did
the last half in l:0l3.
''Sweet Little Alix" finished well
within herself in 2:06, the third quarter
being done at two-minute clip. Ky
land 7. was good second choice IN the
second heat. Some thought he was in
form to trot- a mile in 2:05 or better.
Again he cot away behind, but went out
to battle from the half, going the third
quarter in % seconds. Withal he could
not reach the mare. and she finished just
as strong as before in 2:O64.
The distance was waived IN the last
heat, Monroe Salisbury instructing Nc
DOwell TO drive AliX her best clip. This
time Rylaud L. went to bad break, and
there was nothing TO rush the mare IN
her supreme effort. She went on her
courage, and was at the half IN l:04, the
last half being done in I:004. 1t was the
fastest mile ever gone in race, and be-
