The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1902-08-17

E. Smathers' Lord Derby, who made
the mile in 2:05% in his first heat and
2:06% in his second heat against Lou
Use Jefferson.
The card opened with novelty race
for, the. 2:12 PAGERS, for which Carl
Wilkes, as he had won heat in a
similar race on the opening day Of the
meeting, was an even money choice.
Pauline G had the pole, but soon lost
it, as Pinchem Wilkes quickly went
to the front and led the party home
by a couple of lengths, with the favor
lite second. Carl Wilkes was again the
choice and this time Rosebud made a
runaway race of it, with Pauline G sec
ond. In the third heat Carl Wilkes,
still the choice, rewarded his supporters
by winning.
The Monk Against the Field.
In. the 2:OR trot the money fairly
poured in at 100 to rs on The Monk
against the field. In the first heat The
Monk and Amelia went Tapped all the
way around to the top of the stretch,
where the mare broke and The Monk
took a good lead. Amelia settled and
came very fast, but was beaten half
length. Pools sold 100 to % on The
Monk. The Monk led with Amelia
second and they got to the quarter in
BIN, when Kingmond went to second
place. They got to the half in 1:03A.
The Monk came down the stretch for
all he was worth, but Amelia, with an
extra burst of speed, got almost on
even terms and was only defeated by
a neck.
The third heat was most exciting
from start to finish. The Monk and
Chain Shot went neck and neck up the
back stretch with Amelia Tapped.
Around the turn The Monk got in
front and led to the distance, where
Amelia, in a brilliant dash came up
and beat him out by neck. The mar
ket was so to 80 on Amelia in the next
heat, and she led all the way around,
but in the stretch Geers tried one of his
old-time drives. The Monk responded
gamely, but went to break and the
mare won. The last heat was a repe-
tition Of the fourth heat, Amelia car
rying off the prize.
Wagon Racers.
The wagon racers smashed the anna
teur race record twice and Lord Derby,
by trotting in 2:05%, set a champion
4llcI n WHICH VIII take a IOC OF D0aunS.
The record has previously been beaten
by York Boy in 2:0S%. In the latter
event four started and Alice Barnes
led to the half, with York Boy close UP.
Here Mr.. Bedford sent York Boy to the
front and won in PIP. In the second
heat York Boy and Alice Barnes went
like team to the half in LOS, when
York Boy let out link and came home
five. lengths to the good in 2:08%, a
WORLDS record for trotting to wagon.
The triumph was short lived, how
ever, as in the next race between Lord
Derby and Louise Jefferson it was cut
down to 2:05A. Lord Derby was
driven by her owner, Q. K. G. Billings
AS soon as the word was given. Lord
Derby went to the front and got to
the quarter In 32h, which gave no
promise of a record breaking perform
ance, but the next quarter was faster
and he shot by the half in 1:034h and
came home like a steam engine of
2:06A. Lord Derby and his owner
were loudly cheered when they return
ed to the judges stand.
