STARK COUNTY DEMOCRAT THURSDAY OCTOBER g. 1893

Oarnes anu 5ney Were gems VI orhbory
and expressive Of the sentiments Of the
people. The response was made by Major
O. O. weybrecht the most popular officer
of the regiment. Major Weybrecht is a
commanding figure and as he spoke In
response to the words of welcome every
heart went out to him. Every friend of
the heroes who faced death at Santiago
knew that no better friend Of these same
heroes was In existence than the man
who was making the response In their
behalf. There were cheers when Major
Wey made a beginning In his
response and he was loudly oheered when
he had finished. During the dsy he met
many friends personally and all were i'm
pressed with his plain manner and the
evidence of great ability underlying 1t.
Major weybrecht is the Democratic can
didate for congress from this district,
and lot of people who met him yester.
day think that his candidacy should re-
suit in an over whelmniDg election. A
or his fellow mau is s,fe man to tie to.
The races were interesting, par
ticularly the last one. The final heat Of
the 2:2l trot was quickly decided by
Aotel winning the heat. He had rounded
to duri Dg the night and did what he
could not have accomplished the night
haf nr Nj
took the $3.50 trot, which plea ed the Can
ton people. The last race was one Of
the best ever seen here. Two Canton
horses, Mickey @. and John Dine, were
In it, and both gave good accounts Of
themselves Mickey G. wes steady but
no one could have beaten John I,ine yes
terday. He had too much speed to spare.
The splendid burst of speed that John
Dine displayed yesterday has baen the
talk Of hors men and spectators generally
This handsome fellow has not been trying
for any races this season, it Is very
vident that he bad really gone after
them he would have got what he went
after. He went very steady race after
the first heat, aud when pressed the most
seemed t. be the hesdiest. In the last
heat he had been carried by three horses
in succession, but at the stretch he went
away from them as If they had been
standing still No such burst Of speed
has been seen on the Canton track and
they were going faster than the score
showsst that. Many friends went to
Mr.. Brobst's place of business last night
| to congratulated him. He Is one Of the
gamest borsemen In the city, and every
yesr has bad a surprise on hand for the
talent. He is friend of legitimate sport
and as such retains the good will Of all
who know him. 1t is understood that
Johu Dine, who created auoh sensation
at the races yesterday, has been sold to
Mr.. George Edel, president of the Can
ton Brewing Go, and while congratula.
ting Mr. Brobst, who brought him out,
salvos are also being passed in the direc'
tion of Mr. Edel, who owns one of the
be st pieces of horseaesh in this vicinity.
