track this afternoon was won in hollow
fashion by Rhythmic, q blind horse,
owned by Jesse Turney of Paris, KY,
that had never before been started in a
race. Rhythmics best time was 2:11B.
which is IA seconds lower than the
record for this event, made last year
by Eleata. ]. c. McKinney's mare
Zephyr ruled favorite in the early bet
ting, but went lame while warming up
for the race and was drawn after a
veterinary had pronounced the mare
unht to race. The track was in excel
lent condition, the weather was fine,
and over 10000 people were present.
racing began sharply at l o'clock
this afternoon, with two unfinished
events left over from yesterday, and
seven races on the card. 1t was 7:15
when the judges announced that the
amateur race to wagon and the second
heat OF the 2:11 trot were postponed to
tomorrow.
Silver Sign Has Fight
Silver Sign was favorite in the 2:15
trot, in which he won a heat yesterday.
He broke badly in the first heat, which
went to General Johnson, and then
took the next two in driving finishes.
Pug made splendid finish in the last
heat, and passed under the wire only q
head behind Silver Sign.
Direct Hal was in front all the way
in the last heat of the Chamber of
Commerce stake, postponed from yes
terday, which he won in 2:07A. This
remarkable son of Direct went faster
than the previous record for the
Chamber of Commerce in all three
heats of this event.
The Roman was an even money ia
vorite over the field in the 2:19 trot
and won both heats handily.
In the 2:07 pace, which was next on
rzaI IL
and the field $25. Chestnut led to the
three quarters pole and in the first
heat, but at the turn into the stretch
Geers let Shadow Chimes out a bit
and he won easily. Shadow Chimes
was in front all the way in the second
heat. Riley B took second in this heat
by splendid burst OF speed in the last
two hundred yards.
Greenline Surprise.
The 2:20 pace, which was won by
Greenline, bay gelding owned by j.
Fl. Lesh, of Goshen Ind, furnished one
OF the surprises of the afternoon.
Dandy Chimes was favorite for the
race at 500 with the field $35. In the
first heat Greenline came through the
bunch at the quarter and took the lead
with Dandy Chimes second. These
positions were held to the wire, al
though Geers made a strong effort
with Chimes. Greenline was in front
all the way in the next two heats. This
was Greenline's first race.
Next on the card was the famous
Merchants and Manufacturers staka.
Just before the race was called,
Zephyr, who had brought $3.50 in the
auctions with Rhythmic next at 500
and the others ranging down to SIS,
was brought to the judges stand for
examination by a veterinary. 1t was
evident that the mare was lame be-
hind and after she had been declared
| unfit to race, the judges permitted her
to be drawn. New pools were immed-
lately made in which Rhythmic
brought 500 and the field $65. Halle
Hardin had the pole for the first heat
and led to the back stretch with Ted
| second. Here rhythmic went around
them and the blind horse led by six
| lengths when the field came into the
home stretch. He led all the way in
the next two heats and was not driven
out at any time. Wentworth finished
second in the third heat after hard
| drive with Lord March, which forced
the latter to take third money.
Dick See, second choice to Daphne
Dallas in the 2:11 pace, won the race
in straight heats. Palm Leaf won the
only heat driven of the 2:11 trot in
King Chimes.
