Dawson would carry off first money.
There Were three heats run In the
event Wednesday. Ina Dawson, Milo
s. and Spreckles each had one to their
credit. 1t was not thought that Milo
s. had even look in for another.
The first heat Thursday was the
ahead of the field. She maintained
her lead until the home stretch was
reached. Then began u struggle for
first place. 1t was one of the great
est finishes ever seen in this city.
Ina Dawson forged ahead, with
Spreckes and Milo s coming like Il
team behind her.Ada &. Spurred on
by the whip was making game fight
to regain what she had lost. Down
the stretch the horses came abreast.
Up to within 20 feet of the wire Ina
Dawson was in the lead. At this
point Milo $. and Spreckles came up
with Il rush. AS the four horses
passed under rhe wire they were not
separated by head. Milo s. was
given the heat, He had an eyelash
the best of 1t.
In the diclding heat of the race Milo
s. caught lima Dawson on the last turn
passing under the wire a winner by
four lengths. He paced like a world
heater and IL was evident that he had
speed to burn.

paced good race.
In the $50 trot interest centered in
the work Of Grace Elyria. Rose Gale,
the favorite, sold for $40 and the field
for 50. After the first heat 1t was
n 10 TO | shot that the field would
win. The Akron mare finished second
in the first two heats She had speed
but not enough to win from the favor
ite.
There Were but three entries In the
2;25 trot. II was conceded that AL.
