LOU DILLON HAS A RIVAL.
The Ge1ding, Major DeImar, Equals
Famous Mares Record, Trotting
Mile in Two Minutes.

New York, Sept 26-The big event
Friday at the Empire City track was the
effort of the champion gelding, Major
Delmar, to bear his own record of 2: OOA.
and to beat the worlds record of 200
held by Lou Dillon. He trotted a most
wonderful mile, and in a game, but firing
finish, shot under the wire in the record
time. After preliminary warming up
the gelding champion came out for his
great trial at 4:30. He went round the
first turn, broke and came back At the
second attempt he went away as steady
as a clock and got to the quarter in 3O1l
seconds. Up the back stretch he shot
with such lightning rapidity that he
flashed by the half-mile pole in So sec
onds. Then the. grand stand rose and
cheered as the gallant son of Delmar
flew round the top turn to the three
quarter pole in 1923, and came home to
the wire in 200, thus equalling the time
of Lou Dillon. 1t was a splendid per-
Torrance by the animal, which only
this week changed owners at the highest
price-$40 ,000-ever paid for a gelding
Major Delmar is a New York animal
bred and foaled, trained and owned in the

London, June 2s.-The cricket match be- tween the visiting Philadelphians and the Marylebone cricket eleven, which began at Lords Grounds yesterday, was resumed today with most favorable weather. The action of the Marylebone club in introduce ing three professionals against the Phil adelphians is considerably criticized. The Philadelphians were all out for 93 runs in their second inning.
 The state of the wicket puzzled the bats men and the bowlers had things all their own way. A. M. Wood of the American eleven batted excellently and carried out his bat for 20 runs J. B. King and H. H. Clark. Americans, made few good hits.

 Nashville, June t-(special) )--Nash- vile, 6; Birmingham, 24
 Twelve hundred blithe some baseball en- thusiasts saw the Fishermen take the initiatory step toward killing that no hitp hoodoo which has held them in it's grasp for so long at Athletic park this afternoon.
 Twelve hits for a total of fourteen bases was a long step in the proper di- rection, more especially when 1t Is con- sidered that these bing1es were accumu- lated off the delivery of Frank Smith. the star twirler of the Coal Barons staff, who by many baseball experts Is con sidered the best pitcher in the Southern league.
 For five innings Smith was invincible. At the end of the fifth, the score stood two to nit, in favor of "0Brfen's men," an4 the local rooters were rapidly be- coming the prey of grim despair.
 In the FishermeRs half of the sixth. however the aspect of the contest was totally changed, Nashville scoring three in that inning as the result of clean hit ting and base on balls
 Another tally in the seventh, and yet another added in the eighth clinched the game as Wild BIT Johnson had the Alabama sluggers completely at his mercy in every inning except the fourth when four of the seven hits secured off his delivery were made
 One, Two, Three Order.
 In five of the nine innings the Coal Barons went out in one, two, three order while only one man besides the two who scored got as far as third base John son got into several tight places but he kept his head all the time and worked himself out, assisted by excellent sup port. Johnson forced every opposing batsman who got to a base to earn It, as he did not give a single base on balls. Frank Smith also twirled in grand form for five innings but went In the air in the sixth and also preceptibly weaken ed Ills support was excellent, the only error recorded against his team mates being wild throw by Woods.
