PRICE FIVE CENTS.


Geo. Angus and Sam Johnson, 100
yards. Won by Sylvia: Johnson, Sec
ond. Time, 80 2-5.
Sharrick came limping upon the
track and receiving hearty applause.
1t was not supposed that he could
possibly race. He went about half way
round the track and then went into his
quarters. At the last turn of the final
lap, Sylvia left the bunch and came in
first. 1t was the same old trick.
Final heat-Entries: Slyva, Whit
man, Martin. scratch: Johnson, 25
yards; Sylvester, SO yards. Won by
Sylvia; Martin, second. Time, 2:40 2-5.
This was perhaps the prettiest race
OF the day. AS the end of the first lap
the riders were punched with Sylvester
leading. At the end of the second lap,
Johnson led. Sylvia played his old
trick once more and Martin was un-
able to catch him.
THIRD RACE.
One mile open for boys. Entries:
Ned Crabbe. Joe Santos, Joe Botelho
and Frank Williams. Won by Will
liams; Santos, second. Time, 2:45 3-5.
The lads did excellent riding and
used their heads like old riders. The
time made was better than that in the
first heat of the mile amateur. Will
liams led from the start
FOURTH RACE.
Two-mile handicap, (amateur). En-
tries: Fred. Damon and Tom King,
scratch; Arthur Giles, 100 yards. Won
by Giles; King, second. Time, $40
3-5.
This race was rather unsatisfactory
on account of the fact that some one
rang the judges bell at the completion
of the second lap. According to the
precedent already set, the race should
have been finished at the end of the
third lap. Damon SO construed 1t and
dropped out after the third lap. King
and Giles kept on for three more laps,
Giles winning. The finish of the two
mile handicap between Giles and King
was beauty.
FIFTH RACE
First heat-Mile open greenhorn. En-
tries: E. B. Berger, H. Kubey, ]. Lloyd,
p. Gleason. H. Murray and r. Ross.
Won by Gleason; Kubey, second.
Time, 3:16 2-5
When starter TOrbert gave the warn
ing: "Greenhorns are you ready?" and
fired the starting shot, all wheels
wriggled in the excitement of the mo-
ment. Berger lost collar button,
Lloyd failed to get the curve out of his
knees and Murray's suit interferred.
Half way around the first lap, the back
tire of Murray's wheel exploded and
that settled him.
Second heat. Entries: A. Mackin-
tosh, j. ]. Reynolds, F.. Atkins, J. N.
Taylor, A. S. Prescott and ]. Hede-
l>~v .vvs~ IAA
man, second. Time, 3:05 2-5.
Macintosh took the lead in the
start and never allowed his opponents
tered a protest against Hedemann's
glasses on the ground that the latter
could see better
"TRILBY" APPEARS.
At the end of the second heat of the
Greenhorn race, ''Trilby" Fowler ap-
peared in answer to the request of the
President and party that this part of
the program take place earlier than
usual "Trilby'' made his bow in front
of the state stand and then proceeded
to business, undertaking one or two
new features.
Final heat of the Greenhorn race.
Entries: Kubey, Gleason, Macintosh
and Hedemann. Placed by "Crackar-
jack" Jackson. Won by Gleason; Mac
kintOsh. second.
This heat was disastrous one. Just
at the end of the second lap, Kubey's
front wheel struck the back Of Jack
sons bicycle and spill was the result.
Gleason was too close to avoid him
and passed right over Kubey who
walked from the track badly bruised
and bleeding from the mouth. Just
after the line was passed. on the last
time around, Jackson went into the
lake with splash and disappeared in
the mud from which he emerged in
fifteen seconds. He gathered up his
wheel and walked proudly across the
track.
