BEATS TIRE HORSE.
Merit Burt Makes Half Mile In Sixty Seconds
and n Half.

Man and horse pitted themselves against
one another in trial of speed at the state
fair grounds yesterday aud though Albert
+, u PAGER with a record OF 2:l21l. switched
his tail aud exerted himself Till he broke
Cd the home stretch, Merton Burt on his
bicycle showed himself victorious.
Owing to the fact that the event was
very poorly advertised not quite 800 peo-
pie were present. They were not, how
ever unappreciatiye and crowded forward
AS the horse and mau made several at
tempts to start and nearly pushed each
other over while the race lasted.
The race was for half mile and
was made from the half mile post to the
judges stand. Harry Fehleison rods
ahead OF the contesting cycler Tor half the
distance Co cut the wind.
The start was made with the front
wheel OF the bicycle IN line with the
wheel OF the sulky. And at the start the
horse began TO fall behind. The bicycl,
gained considerably for the first quartz e,
but the race was for hood anu Albert e.
driver urged him forward 20 his utmost
speed The horse too was anxious TO wiz
and slowly gained but as be started In
full swing down the homs stretch he
broke, something he seldom does in a
race.
He recovered before he passed under tn.
| wire but the cheer which rent the air Wa:
| for the man and not for the PAGER aud theI
wioened out the faces OF the bicycle back
ers but drew Gown the corners OF thu
| horsemen's mouths.
The race was one of the finest ever
| viewed in the city. Burt was dressed in
| bright yellow suit aud glided along likl
| a gwift while the PAGER came thunder
| ing on ike a NEUROLOGICAL monster. L
was a race for something more than glor,
and but one minute and hall a second wa
spent in the race.
! Immediately afterwsrd Harry Fehleisol
made an exhibition race OF one-fourth of
mile. He ran IL IN 30is seconds.

position to work and that they should pot
shrink their duty. He said that when he
was such sixty-five people would call az
his office in one day.
Professor F-itch-I had over seventy-five.
Casey-You got it strong but it is due
to the teachers who are struck out OF that
present their claims.
IG was suggested that some one bad to
be struck out as the forces were reduced
aud when IL was asked what school each
teacher would have, the explanation was
made that nothing could be determiu ed
till the teachers either accepted or did not
do so.
The motion was lost by the deciding
voice Of the president aud when the
motion to adopt the report of the COM
mite. WAS carried Casey, Goldberg and
Davidson voted In thu negative.
This fight over the grade teachers was
followed by another when the attempt was
made to place Miss Clark's salary at $40
instead of S55. Tbs supporters Of the mo-
ton which was lost were Fritch. Casey,
Gill and Goldberg. They claimed that
Miss Clark's street car fare amounted to IS
per month
Another battle preceded the adoption of
the High school report Powell voted
against it with Baehr and Davidson and
explained his vote by saying that he wish

of the High school 81, 500 a year when men
could be obtained for less. He then cited
