TERRE HAuTE, Sept. 2s.-This was the OPEN
Ing day Of the seventeenth annual fall meeting
OF the Terre Haute Trotting Association. Tho
special features we're Star Pointers attempt TO
beat his record OF 1904, an exhibition mile by
Joe Patehen. and a 2:1s pace for n purse Of
%, 900. Owner Murphy believed his horse would
lower his record. lie had Invented q nav bit
which he thought would not boar SO heavily on
tho liberated teeth. and thereby avoid bad
bsoaks such as caused Pointer to lose the race
TO Patchen at Milwaukee last week. Driver
McClary went away 90 slow that few persons
expected TO see him nod for the word. There
was q strong wind from tho east, too, which he
had to face in the FIRST quarter. which was COW
cred In 3lh seconds. When this time was dis
played there was little hope left for q two.min-
ute mile. The half was done in LOLA, with
the fastest part OF the track to DO travelled.
A tho half the runner, Abe Lincoln. who
paced Nancy Hanks In her mile OF 2:04 at tho
came track i've years ago to-day, gave way to q
frosh horse. Around the easy and down-hill
turn into the third quarter Pointer was going as
never did q harness horse before. The third
quarter was In 2s seconds. q 1859 gait. Mo
Clsry kept the stallion well out into tho track,
a. he had been doing from tho start, and tho
wire was reached In 2:0o,s. tieing John II.
0entry's record. The third quarter was the
fastest ever made. and the half mile In 5sa SEQ
onds Is the fastest halt-mile record. Horsemen
said that they had heard Of quarters In 20 SEQ.
onds, but never before saw . horse step It.
Within Q few minutes Joe Patchcn was
brought out. John Dlokerson was behind him,
and Malonoy drove tho runner. After tho per
ormanco Owner Marks was angry. because
neither Maloney nor Dickerson carried q watch
TO rate the mile. Patchen was going faster than
Pointer at the start, but was somewhat up.
steady. The quarter was coveredin o:3lh. half
in l.o2. throe-uuarters In 1871. and the mile In
a:Olk. lowering his previous record.
The 9:lS pace for 5000 was tho exciting
struggle OF the regular programme. Parker 8,
raced himself out In tho drst four heats, and
then Sally Toler. who at one stage lost prestige,
won easily. In tho 2:2s trot, Pearline @, with q
record Of 2;24t, won the first heat in 2:12k,
thereby letting out q secret Of the harness rae
ing campaign. Good judges have always sus-
poctod. that she had the speed. After another
heat the race was postponed until tomorrow.
The two-year-old pace, with four Of the seven
youngsters who have records less than 2:3O in
IL, was not called. Summaries;
