The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1896-07-26

the seven laps not being quite enough to
make up the 16 miles. When the first
bunch passed the finishing stand,
Christianson had pulled ahead of his
class, the 5:45 handicap class, and he
was neYer headed, but even beat out
Todd, of the scratch men, as he had
nearly made the lap in the time of his
handicap, before the last bunch was
started. Ferguson led the second
bunch and Paul Mayer got off in front
of the 4:30 class.
Adolf Voges led the four minute
speeders, and Noble set pace for the
$3.50 outfit. Harris opened the ball for
the three minute party, and j. w. Sam
was at the front of the 2:30 bunch.
Scheiber and Sudheimer paced the two
and one-thirty classes respectively.
After the first lap, however, none of
them were ever close enough to Chris
Hanson to make that part of the race
even interesting. WiSeman, who was
also in the 5:45, or largest handicap
class, made good showing for second,
but after the third lap he had dropped
back to third, being succeeded by Fred
Johnson, who kept the place there
after.
The most exciting period of the race

track They were closely followed by
double quartette of scorchers, and it
was with difficulty that these threaded
their way through the maze of wheels
and mangled humanity without doub-
ling up the accidents, but they finally
got through and the crowd breathed
easier. Both Gooch and Wilson left the
race. one for fouling, the other because
he had had enough.
w. H. Ebert, one of the two colored
entries, went into a ditch on the east
side OF the lake on the first lap, and
lost some ground, but he held to it to
the finish
These, beyond the puncture Of several
