ton An accident to Ulbrichts tire
caused the Dutchman to mount
strange wheel. Miller had the pole and
caught the pace. Hatton tried to jump
the pace at the end of the first lap, but
the boys stuck well to their job. The trio
then walked away from the field and
the race degenerated into very strag-
Cling procession. Holbrook dropped out
and Miller and Ulbricht were content
to battle for second place. Hatton won
by over 100 yards in 2:15%.
The next event was handicap one
third mile dash; entries-W. A. Taylor,
3 yards; j. l.. Standefer, yards; w. j.
Hutton, Q yards; G. Washburn, IL

Griffin, 18 yards. Hatton was marked at
scratch, but decided not to ride, and
Taylor went back to scratch. The linn
1t man was never caught and won out
from Aldridge in 44A seconds. Taylor
rapidly overhauled Standefer and Hut
ton and made a gallant effort to catch
the limit men. He won third place, his
time from scratch being 461a seconds.
The one-mlle tandem brought out c.
Miller and II. W. Holbrook, e. Ulbricht
and w. j. Hutton, w. A. Taylor and G.
Washburn. Miller and Holbrook, who
had the pole, made the running for the

and Holbrook, however, rode a waiting
race and came up with a rush in the
third lap winning handly in PIG, Tay-
lor and Washburn second

Ulbricht had the pole. The men waited
anxiously on each other. Miller made an
inefectual attempt to jump the field in
the f1rst lap, which resulted in a splendid
struggle, Holbrook crossing the tape a

An exhibition mile on the Rambler
quadruplet was then attempted. The
quad was manned by the following crack
team: Taylor, steersman; Hatton. Wash
burn and Ulbricht. The men had all
worked hard and were tired, and this
fact, coupled with the wind, would have
prohibited exceptional time. However.
at the half mile the chain went, and the
attempt at time had to be abandoned
The third was ridden in 40 seconds.
