| faNoritc, ruling to against the field
before the heat started. Eth Bel,
| owned by Mr. Daran, of the Honesdale
Shoe company, drew the pole; Com

Exploit was on the outside. At the
| third trial the word was given TO a
poor start, w. II. c. being left behind

| magnificent finish, and Driver Hannis
| was forced to take off his cap to the

question of favoritism raised he had
magnanimously resolved to give the
first heat to Eth Bel, This announce
ment was supplemented by the infor-
nation that the action was entirely
voluntary on the owners part, as Ex-
plot had surely won the first heat by
