The Famous Stallion Equals the
Best Pacing Record
IN HIS RACE WITH STAR POINTER

He Wins Three NIile Heats in Close Con-
test, Covering the second Heat in e.Otls,
aud Captures Purse of Five Thousand
Dollars.
GLENs FALLS. y. y, Sept tt-Tho first
Of the surics of three races between the
great pacing stations, John r. Gentry
(2O3A) and Star Pointer (2OHD for a
purse Of 5000, with $500 added by the as
ISOLATION should the track record of 2O3
be beaten, took place yesterday ON the
mile track of the Northern New York
Trotting Horse Breeders association at
Glens Falls Inst week, at Fleetwood,
John r. Gentry lowered the colors of
Robert j., Frank Agan and star Pointer,
winning the most remarkable harness
race on record, pacing the fastest three
consecutive miles known. Yesterday the
same handsome stallion equaled the
world record made by Robert j. at Tcrrc
Haute two years ago, going u mile and
winning the heat by almost full longth
in 20l]5 The average time of the three
heats of yesterdays race was just one
quarter of a second slower than 6F, worlds
record made at Fleetwood last week
This match brought out upwards Of
1000 people shortly before 80 the first
heat of the big event was called. Gentry
came first on the track and received an
ovation as he passed the grand stand Star
Pointer followed quickly and was equally
well received. Star Pointer had the pole.
They started very level and held the po-
sition from the wire to the half mile pole,
with Gentry at Star Pointers saddle
Andrews let out a loop and Gentry
closed up the distance buta moment later
went back TO Pointers scat As they sped
around into the nome stretch the stations
were as if in one harness. Then with a
furious drive the Fleetwood record holder
! pushed hi, nose ahead, and won the heat
in 2.O3a{.
The second heat was called at % clock.
At that time quite a breeze was blowing.
and this seemed to dampen all hopes of a
record breaking performance. The horses
were given the word on the first score and
"a more magnificent race was never Wit
messed. They went along as one horse TO
the tiye-eighth pole, when Star Pointer,
who was on the outside strHining with
every muscle, managed to show his head
in front Into the stretch they came, and
as Andrews shook up his horse John r..
/ Gentry by IA wonderful burst of speed flew
| past his rival, passing under the wirc n
| full length in front with the world 5
record of 2Oll5. Every person in the vast
assemblage went wild with enthusiasm,
for it seemed even before the time was
| posted that Il record had gone down,
After such wonderful performance
the third heat proved somewhat of a dis
appointment They got off on the first
score, and, travelling the first half neck and
neck Star Pointer went back to Gentry ;

The Republican County Committee
met Saturday and held two sessions,
but did nothing towards nominating
county officers.
A majority of the 90 members were
present ard the candidates did a
good deal Ct electioueering with them.
As was expected, the committee de-
cided to make the nominations itself
without holding convention or pri-
mary, but postponed action until the
last Saturday in May 1897. This was
done to give an opportunity to get
some Of the candidates provided for
in the revenue service and thus sim.
plify the work for the committee.
The number of candidates for sheriff,
assessor and jailer is daily multiply
ing. The are no negro candidates ex-
cept for jailer and coroner.
The Boltocrats who this year voted
for Mckinley were formally recogniz.
ed by the appointment of Herbert L,
rrice as committeeman in the Penn.
broke district.
With the exception of some of the
minor officers the ticket is virtually
made up now. By the dicision to have
the committee appoint the candi-
dates the ring will perpetuate itself.

THE RACE LINE.
Indications That 1t Is To BE Drawn In Tie
CARROT Case.

"hohs IhaJ IL Is 10 De Drawn In TIE
CARROT Case.
The trial OF Clifton Carrot for the
shooting of Tom aud Reuben Leavell
will be called at Bolivar to-day. His
bond was fixed at $1,000 ths'day after
the shooting by Esq. Barker, but, one
of the negroes has since died and the
examining trial is no'longer in the iur
isdiction of the magistrate. Young
CARROT will be on hand to meet hi
bond for shooting and the case vii
probably be transferred to the county
court aud day set for the trial in
this city, unless the matter should b:
simplifed by waving examination.
There are indications that politics
is to play conspicuous part in the
case. The Republicans will try to
turn heaven and earth to convict Gar.
rott, who had the boldness to shoot a
county committeeman in his own
necessary self-defense. 1t is said that
some of his white sympathizers in
this city have spent a night under
old Reuben LeavelPs roof since the
shooting and there are many indica
tions that CARROT is to be prosecuted
as well as prosecuted, for political
effect.
Mr. CARROT has retained G. II.
Bush and John Feland, Sr., as his
attarneys.

A TRIPLE41NCHING.
Two~pRocToRS, FATHER AND SON,
HANGED ToA CEDAR TREE,
And a Second Son Shot to Death, in the
Jail at RusselIvilIe, by a Mob From
AdaIrViIe, Where Aaron and
Doc Grafton Were Kill
ed November "a
Last.

Russellville, KY, Dec. 1S.-Dink
and Arch Proctor, father and son,
were taken from the Jail at 2 a. m,
and hanged to cedar tree just out
side that town, and Bill Proctor, an
other son, was shot and killed in his
CELL
A mob of about 100 men broke
into the Jail about l:4O a. m. by bat
tering down the door with sledge
hammers The jailer was forced to
give up the cell keys. The froctors
were up, as they had been warned the
dag before of what was to come.
Bill Proctor swore he would not leave
his cell alive. and as he was power
full man and hard to handle, one of
the mob shot him with pistol. I'm
mediately afterward a charge OF
buckshot was fired at him and as he
fell, volley OF pistol shots were
fired. About 20 balls entered his
body.
After Proctor was down, man en-
tered the cell and placed pistol at
the head of the fallen man, pulled the
trigger, and thus died the most dan
, ger0us man in Logan county.
j The mob then took Dink Proctor
and his son Arch out of their cells
and bound their hands, otter the
! jailer had made an unheaded plea for
! mercy Tor the father. The mob
which had now increased to 200 men,
escorted the prisoners TO a three limb
ed cedar tree on the Nashville road
and strung father and sou up side by
side, Their bodies We're cut down
several hours later.
The mob came from AdairviIle, and
they cut all the telegraph wires lead
ing from that point in order 20 pre-
vent notice being given of their com
ing.
Mrs. Proctor, wife of Dink, and
mother of Arch and Bill, was asleep
in the hotel here when the lynching
took place. She had come to attend
the examining trial, and Arch begged
the mob pitifully TO be allowed to see
his mother before he was hanged, but
his request was refused.
Arch Proctor killed Aaron and Doc
Grafton at Adairville, November "A.
Bill and Dink were charged with
conspirins to have the Craftons kill
ed. Bill and Dink were acquitted of
the charge in the first case, and Arch
was held over on $1,000 bond.
Their trial was set for to-day in the
other case. Bill Proctor was one of
the four who was charged with hang
ing Ed Traughber about two years
ago and has killed several men and
has been tried four times for his life.
Dink has always been quiet fellow
and this is the first time he has been
in trouble.
JaiIer Morgan pleaded with the
mob not To hang them, but the an
swer was that Dead men tell no
tales" Bill and Diuk were haIf.bIO.h-
ers and Arch was Drinks son.
The general public approved Of the
killing Of Bill and Arch, bat thought
that Dink should have been left
alone. The people Of Adlirulle feel
they are almost il Heaven, as Bill
Proctor was terror to every human
being in it, Great crowds are view
ing the dead bodies.
