tended and Were Very interest

COLUMBUS. Ohio, July 3O.-The
grand circuit meeting opened to-day.
Owing to heavy rain during the
night. the track was slow but the
weather was clear. The first two
races aroused no excitement. In the
2:22 trot, Lord Derby was almost a
prohibitive favorite and although he
lost the first heat on account of a
bad start, won the race in consecu-
tive heats without being hard pushed.
Georgianna was picked to win the PIP
trot, and she did not disappoint her
hackers, though she made a bad show
ing in the first heat The only real
excitement OF the day was furnished
by the ZIG pace, which was post
poned after four heats, two of which
had been taken by the favorite, Annie
Thornton The Admiral proved to be
the sensational performer in this race.
He took the first heat almost in a
walk. In the second he got away
nicely, but broke in the first quarter
and dropped back several lengths.
The little bay made a hurricane finish.
however, and was only beaten a head
by Harna Patchen. The Admiral
made a game fight for first place in
the third heat, but was driven off his
feet almost at the wire, after he had
moved up side by side with the leader,
Annie Thornton.
The fourth heat was fought out by
the favorite and Harna Patchen, An

COLTS HOLD RECORD
For High Team Average in Bowling
A Correction.

For High Team Average in Bowling.
A Correction.
The statement in the Register that
the Korn Kob Klub was the first team
to maintain an average of 1000 pins
in regular tournament, has stirred up
the Colts, who are jealous of the record
they made in the Musee tournament.
The following card is self-explanatory
Sporting Editor Register
Sir: Having read the article about
the K. K. K. bowling team having an
average of 1000, l would like to make
a statement about the Colt bowling
team of the Musee league during the
season of '99-00. Their work for one
night was as follows: A total of 1926
pins in three games, which is the high
est three-game score ever made in the
city, one game being 1,129 pins, which
is the second highest team score ever
bowled in the city, and one man max
ing total of 629 pins. Now, if that
isn't bowling some, tell me what is.
That is not all. Their average rang
ed from 1,005 to 1,010 nearly the entire
season, they finishing the season with
an average of zoos pins in 81 games.
The scores are all on record ait the
Musee bowling alleys, and anyone can
go and see them with little trouble.

might hackey' where he could get
lodgings in a good hotel The hackey
told him of an excellent place and Of
fered to haul him there for the insig-
nificant sum of two bits. The deal was
closed.
On Sunday he started out to see
things, and as he wasn't ripe as yet, a
steerer tagged him for mark. They
saw the sights and incidentally mop
ped up several ice colds" Right
here is where the country lad went TO
the bad. DrowsineSS overcame him
very quickly and he retired about an
hour after the "chics" He went dead
and didn't come to until ! D. m yes
terday A search through his clothes
revealed the fact that his wad. an even
hundred, had been spirited away.
He and his pitiful tale were laid be-
fore the mighty august ruler over the
public's welfare. William Clemens,
chief of police, who paid the lads way
back to the peaceful valley OF his
rural rest
The chief put his sleuths to work on
the case, but at an early hour this
morning no arrests had been made.

would otherwise take an active part
In the coming campaign.
Jim Hall is saint, Z was the CONF
ment OF local Republican leader yes

but never knew so good party man.
After the nomination in Charleston, he
told his friends not to feel sore, but to

If the party doesn't give him some
thing fat it will be the rankest kind
Of political ingratitude.
