Paced a Mile In 2:O71&, and the Third
Heat in a Race in
2:OS15.

SAN JOSE. CAL, Sept. 27.-The attend
ance at the fair to-day was the best of the
week. The weather and the track were
just right for good racing and the sport
furnished was of a superior quality. The
2:27 class trot was an easy win for G.. K.
Hostetter's Doodle, San Jose's great cam
paigner securing first money in three
straight heats. The sensation of the day
was the time made by the famous Oregon
PAGER, Chehalis. In the second heat of the
2:25 class pace he went mile in 2:07%,
smashing the track record of 200 made by
Waldo on Thursday. This was also the
fastest mile paced or trotted in California
this year.
The Fruitmen's stakes for foals of 1892
was won by Cressida in hollow style, his
only competitor, Our Seth, being distanced
in the second heat.
The 2:15 class pacing had four contest
ants-Frank Frazier's famous Oregon
horse ChehaIis, S. C. Tryon's Hanford
Medium, H r. Wards haywood and Win
ship & Keating's Ottinger. There was no
money bet on this race as it was conceded
by the knowing ones that Chehalis would
win as he pleased.
haywood got off in the lead and stayed
in front past the quarter, which was
reached in just 81 seconds; Chehalis was
second and Hanford Medium third. At
the half the positions were changed. Che
halls v as first and haywood was good
second, with Ottinger close up. Chebalis
led into the stretch, with 0ttinger second
and Hanford Medium third. Ottinger
came toward home with surprising speed,
and the closest finish of the week was the
result.
Frazier had held back with Chehalis
almost too long and narrowly escaped
losing the heat. AS it was, the Oregon
horse passed under the wire short head
in front of Ottinger.
In the second heat Frazier did not keep
Chehalis waiting for any one. but kept him
going at record-breaking pace from start
to finish. The quarter was passed in :32,
the half in 1857 and the three-quarters in
1861. haywood was second at the half,
but Hanford Medium passed him and fol-
lowed Chehalis home. Frazier piled the
and won by a dozen lengths in the remark
able time of 2:0713, beating the track rec
ord and also the State record for this year.
Hanford Medium was second, Ottinger
third and haywood fourth.
Chehalis led all the way again in the
third heat, and succeeded in breaking an
other record. He finished in 2:08Ia, the
1dSleSG LUlIu neat pdCeu III OdlilOT0lA IDlS
season. Ottinger finished second, Hanford
Medium third and haywood fourth.
