In the Mobile Classes
Great interest was shown in the auto
mobile races which were quite new as a
horse show feature here, or for that mat
ter, in the Northwest. Speculation as
machines entered was rife and the show
ing made by e. H. Moulton's Peerless
settled beyond all doubt the speed ques-
ton among them.
In the five-mile derby, the first of the
automobile events, the Peerless, driven
by H d. Savage, cleaned up its rival
the Wnt9 or a fine shape finishing the
triumph, Moulton started in the second
division of the Derby race, at clip
which should haveIs brought him to the
finish in eight minutes fiat, distancing the
Winton which was, competing with him,
by fully an eighth of mile in the first
mile and half. Then in some unaccount-
dple way, The MECHANISM OF his car went
wrong, and beforesethe defect could be
discovered and renfedied, he was so far
behind that he deemed it expedient to

the Winton car, driven by A. B. bennett,
in the fourth mile, fthe distance by which
they were separated eat the start being
a third of a mile. The two Peerless ma

out any great difference in their speed
until the judges, agreeing that a compile
ton of the. race would entail the con-
Meultons Peerless ,sdriven by Savage,
winner. with the Peerless which Moulton
himself drove, as second.
Scarcely less decisive was the showing
made by Charles p Joy, of ST. Paul,
with his little six horse power Rambler
in the open two and three-mile races for
small machines JOY won both races and
by more than comfortable margins, win
ming out against machines outclassing
the Rambler badly as to weight and
horsepower.
John Nelson. of Minneapolis with
his little one and three-quarters horse
power Warwick motorcycle won the race
from dozen entries in the motor cycle
class handily, distancing the higher pow
cred machines with ease.
All in ALL the horse show was decidedly
pleasing, and it is to be regretted that
the management were not more literally
patronized since their efforts were GER
tainly worthy of daily capacity patron
