There were some doings of eztraordi-
nary interest on the saucer last night, one
great scintillating feature being the spec
tacIe of Ben Green, the colored rider, and
Glenn Turville trying to make mince meat
of each other. 1t was a hot old mill while
it lasted and its good thing it happened
for the other event arranged TO keep the
spectators warm, namely, the ten-mile
motor race between the Turville brothers
and Rutz and Hauseman, the new riders,
VIZ. 81 very one-sided affair. The Old Re
liable was too much for the new corners
and the brothers won by a lap.
The fight started in this wise: On the
last Lap Of the second. heat of the half,
mile handicap professional. TurviIle and
Green were riding for the pole In some
way their wheels met and Glenn went
srrav-Iing ont into the arena KS soon
~ he could get his breath, he yelled out
loud enough for the crowd to hear: Il II
punch your --- face, you - niger,
draughts, elem was so sore. He main
ta:red that Green had run down on him
and struck him purposely-

elem: ANY time you want to punch my

TO the training quarters and waited for
Green. When Green appeared, toeing the

him. In an instant there was perfect
wh:rlwind in the narrow corridor The
CoIored man had elem $ head under one
arm and was handing it to him in right
clever -tyle when Clem's brother Charley

The aid of the cOlOred man, seeing the
odds against him, but at that moment
Oft.- t.d Davies made some of his
business, and aided by rack OUclalS,
separated the cOmbaH - Neither of the
men was severely disfs dred and they both
rode in succeeding events.
Referee Sharp promptly lined Glenn $40
for the breach of saucer etiquette, saying
that no matter what prOvOcatiOn Turville
had. he should have made his kick TO the
referee instead of using the other basis

One Sided Race.
The motor race. as stated. was all on
one side. Turvilles took the. lead and
Rutz and Hauseman followed pace during
the entire ten miles. They tried twice TO
