THE OTHER RACES.
Guinette, Owned by Star Pointers
Master, Gets a Mark of 2;O6 1-2.

OF the other races on the card yesterday
the free-for-all pace was the only one that
developed much interest and the first heat
Of it was a horse race well worth seeing.
There was no laying up through fear of
taking a record, and it was fight from the
start. Guinette, owned by Murphy the
owner of Star Pointer. was the best horse
in it, and this entry was driven by Nc
Clary Though but five horses started
there was an unexampled amount of scor-
ing and when the word was finally given
Guinette had considerably the worst of it,
Bessie Bonehill was a length ahead under
the wire and Pearl c., the pole horse
showed a hard fight. passing Bonehill at
the quarter and leaving no opening for
Guinette They paraded in this order to
the half, when McClary began to close up
the gap. He had the outside of the turns,
however, and it was uphill work AS they
entered the stretch the wide turn threw
him almost length Behind Pearl c. and
half as far behind Bessie. There was the
hardest kind of a whipping finish and
Guinette got the heat by nose. with Bes-
sic second, only half a nose behind Pearl
C. The second heat, however, was a good
deal Of a procession Guinette had the pole
and kept the lead all the way around, MAX
ing THE mile in 2:O6ls. Summary:

The 2:14 pace the first race on the card
was something of a hippodrome. The crowd
had been stirred up somewhat by the an
nouncement of the starter, who said that
such a vast audience was a sure sign that
prosperity had reached Indiana, and this
started various political discussions in the
stand The starter is from another State,
and did not understand how Indiana
Democrat hates the word prosperity. The
first heat got off after q heap of scoring
and was without incident, going to Brown
Pilot by r. a length In the SECOND heat it
about the distance flag Hignight, her
driver seemed to suddenly realize that he
was in danger of taking the heat, and near
~ pulled his arms off holding her back to
let Pilot take the heat and race. Summary:

The 2:25 trot was notable chiefly for the
fact that it had big field, with so many
of the horses out of sorts, and that it was
almost impossible to start them, and the
horse winning one heat was just as likely
as not to be thrown out of the hunt by
bad start in the next. Three heats were
trotted and the race was left unfinished.
