Wins a Purse of $4,000.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Sept. 29-At the
state fair to-day in the presence of crowd
Of sixty thousand people John r. Gentry
defeated Joe Patchen with ease in the match
race for purse of $1,000 Patchen was the
favorite with the immense audience that
filled the big amphitheater and bleachers
and lined the track for several hundred
yards on each side, but the horse was not
in the best of condition and was never in
the race at any time. Gentry was driven
by Andrews and Patchen by Marks. The
first heat was won in 2:O44 and the second
that it was the fastest heat of the year and
it was also the best two consecutive heats
ever done by Star Pointer Joe Patchen or
Robert ]. The conditions of the race were
that both heats must be made in 205 or
less The winner received the purse. Neither
horse broke during the race.
The horses had a fine start in the first
heat, Gentry having the pole. He went to
the front from the first and at the quarter
led by four lengths. Then Patchen pulled
himself together little and at the half
mile had gained two lengths. He remained
al this distance until on the home stretch,
when Gentry gained steadily on him and
lengths ahead of the black horse. The first
quarter was made in 80 seconds, the second
in 3OA, the third quarter in 30 and the last
in 311a seconds. The second heat was a
trifie more interesting On the third scor-
ing the word was given and the horses
started even. At the quarter mile Gentry
half by half a length. At the three-quarters
post Gentry led by three-quarters of a
length and on the home stretch Gentry
again forged ahead and won by four lengths
with ease amid great cheers. The time by
quarters was: First, 81 seconds; second, 81
third, 3034; fourth 30%.

has been especially unfortunate with the
Washington club. The war, and that alone,
is the cause of the poor attendance all over
the major League circuit and throughout
the minor leagues. We tried to fool our
selves early in the season with the delusion
that the war would not affect our receipts
to great extent, but as the season adj
vanced we were obliged to own up that it
kept many dollar from our turnstiles. /
have numerous inquiries from the various
club presidents and managers of our teams
regarding the 154-game schedule, whether it
should be carried again next season, or
whether we should return TO the old 1872
game assignment of championship dates. If
the teams draw fairly well during the first
two weeks in October the 154-game sched-
ule will, doubtless, be continued for another
year. If we find that the 154-game schedule
does not pan out during the last two weeks
of the season, we will cut off twenty-five
games, though the championship season
Will begin as usual, in the middle of April
The four-trip plan has certainly given the
public one of the best pennant races we
have ever enjoyed These two extra trips
cost money, but the public, you know, must
be served, they are the dictators."

Rev. .. F. WoIker,s Services.

Rev. E. F. Walker continues to attract
good and attentive audiences at his gospel
meetings in the Sixth Presbyterian Church.
At the 2:90 afternoon service for the past
two days he has considered the tests of a
Christian life On Wednesday afternoon he
presented the first five tests, with the proof
tests, as follows: Abandonment of sin, vic
tory over the world, divine love, brotherly
love- possession of Christ. Continuing yes
terday afternoon he considered the remain
ing points: Possession of the Holy Spirit
and witness of the spirit.
At the services last evening Mr.. Walker
preached on the new birth, founding his re-
marks, as usual, in John iii, T. While the
preacher. did not announce any new or
startlingly strange doctrine he treated it in
his own peculiarly original and impressive
manner. The main force of his invective
was against that large class of religionists
who accept certain forms and ceremonies
as the whole of Christianity and vainly
think they have secured salvation by eating
the dry husks of religion He Will preach
again to-day at $50 and 1880 p. m.
