CHrLLIcorHE, O., Oct. 4.-The grand
stand and ground on the fourth day Of
the driving park meeting was filled to
,verfowing, more than 10000 people
,sing present. The chief feature Of the
day was the special in which Flying
Jib was to 90 against the worlds pacing
record of 2:0134.
Monroe Salisbury, the owner OF the
PAGER, drove out Jib and a running mate,
attached to a pneumatic tire, in the
afternoon, and the famous Californian
and his flyer were greeted with cheers
by the immense audience.
After taking turn around the track,
Andy Mcdowell, the only driver that
ever drove PAGER in less than two
minutes. mounted the seat and took the
reins. He got away Immediately, and
1t was apparent to every horsemen
present that the clip was q record
breaker il he kept it up. At the quar-
ter the pace was unbroken. and as he
lit out for the half his speed was
msnifestly increasing. The f1sgman
was not at the quarter post owing to
Misunderstanding, and the watches OF
the judges were pressed for the frat
time at the half which Flying Jib
reached in 0:59 fat. At the three
quarters the great PAGER appeared to
falter. but hero the time was also lost,
and il any speed was TO be made il
was on the stretch. The last half was
made in :5914.
THE WORLDS RECORD BROKEN.
When the wonderful PAGER darted
under the wire, Starter Loper had to
ring the bell to quell the riot OF cheering
throats. Once it WAS quiet again, Start
er Loper eaid I'VE have witnessed
something which NO audience in the
world has seen before. You have eeeR
the faatest mile ever paced. Flying Jib
has beaten the record and made the
mile in l :5814."
The audience once more broke out in
cheers and aprlaudsd the PAGER as Andy
Mcdowell brought him up in front of
the grant stand. He took off his cap
and acknowledged the salute that was
given him.
The mile that Jib went and the time
are the more remarkable when the con-
ditions are taken into considerations.
All day a strong wind was blowing and
the air was cold and clammy. The wind
caught the horse as he came up the
back stretch at the large loop, but he
forged ahead.
OTHER RECORDS BROKEN.
Another worlds record was broken by
Oneque, the game little Iowa trotter
who has been doing battle with Express
i've, and was beaten at Terre Haute.

heat OF the 3-ysar-old race in 2:lls4,
taking the worlds 3-year'old trotting
record.
Still another worlds record was
broken by Sidmont, by Sidney, out of
the great brood mare Foreleaf. the dam
of Thietle (2:1314) and Gold Leaf
