PATcHEN AND STAR POINTER.
Their Match Race Compared with
Yesterdays Farce.

Two things were greatly in evidence yes
terday at the fair grounds to prevent the
match race between Searchlight and Ana
eonda being as notable as the wonderful
match race between Star Pointer and Joe
Patchen, held on the same track during
the State fair of 1897. The track was in
no condition for such wonderful time as
made by the stars of the meet in 1897 and
then the drivers of Searchlight and Ana
conda evidently had something up their
sleeves" which prevented the horses doing
their best. A comparison of the two match
races makes yesterdays farce appear abso-
lutely ludicrous. The Star Pointer-Joe
Fatchen race was decided In three heats
The first two were paced on Friday, Sept
II. Pointer winning the first and Patchen
the second. Darkness made il necessary
to postpone the deciding heat until Satur-
day. McClary held the ribbons on Star
Pointer and Dickerson was behind Joe
Patchen. The two drivers got all the speed
possible out of the two grand PAGERS. and
the final heat won by Star Pointer in
2:01, lowering the worlds record at that
time. His time by quarters was :29s4, Zoo
1:30, 2:01. Such match races as that please
the spectators.
