Billings Mare Proves Wonder
to a Wagon.
Lou Dillon Goes a Mile in
Cleveland in 1904 ga.
DRIVEN BY HER OWNER
Breaks All Records to a Road
Wagon.
Declared to Be Coming Cham
piOn TrOtter.

Cleveland, July 2-Lou Dillon broke
all records here for a mile to wagon for
trotters, going the distance in 2:O4A.
The race was at a matinee of the
Gentlemen's Driving club at Glenville
track, and the California mare was
driven by her owner, c. K. C. Billings
of Chicago, to beat her own mark of
2:06A, gained at the last. matinee of the
Gentlemen's Driving club two weeks
ago. In consequence of protracted rains
Lou Dillon had been idle during these
two weeks and the track today was not
in the best of shape.
The trial was made with a runner
driven by Charles Tanner, which went
ahead about five lengths and maintain
ed that position until the three-quar-
tiers pole was reached. The mare had
been going like a veteran all the dis
lance. At the three-quarter pole the
runner was pulled to allow Lou Dillon
to come up alongside. The stretch was
entered at great speed. The 1900 spec
tatOrS who had been timing the mare at
the quarters had become excited as the
watches indicated that all records would
be broken and as the trOtter passed the
stand arose en- masse. The mile was
made in 2:04A, the horse finishing
strong and seemingly ready to cover the
distance second time.
The fractional time was: 0:31%;
1:03A; 1874; 2:04%.
The crowd cheered both Lou Dillon
and Mr. Billings and the latter was
obliged to recognize the applause by re-
peatedly raising his cap when he drove
the trotting queen back to the waiting
stable boys.
4 certainly believe that if the horse
is alive who can lower CresceuS' time
it is Lou Dillon" said Mr.. Billings after
the matinee.
Others who expressed themselves as
of the opinion that Lou Dillon was the
coming champion trotter were John
Splan, Myron McHenry and Ed Geers,
all of whom have driven champions and
witnessed today's remarkable perform
ance.

KANSAS NEWS.
Ottawa Will Have a Big Camp
Assembly.
Over I40 Tents Have Already
Been Ordered.
A THOUSAND EXPECTED
Demand Seems to Be from Over
the State.
Topeka and Kansas City to Send
Parties.

Ottawa, Kan. July 2-Orders are now
filed at the Office Of the assembly sec
rotary for about 140 tents This IS an
unprecedented number for this time.
and 1t signifies that there win be no less
than $50 tents on the grounds by the
second day Of the assembly. This latter
number signifies a tent city Of 1000 in
habitants. 1t is hardly possible for the
entire history of the assembly to show
such promise as this, at this time in
the progress of assembly preparations.
An unusual feature OF the prepara-
tions this year is the number of assur-
anees from people who are coming in
parties to tent on the grounds. Kansas
City has not sent much of a delegation
in recent years, but this year several
parties of Kansas City people have writ
ten for locations on the grounds. To-
peka will send several neighborhood
camping parties, the number averaging
from ten to twenty-five each. 1t is be-
neved at the secretary's office that
campers are coming from longer dis
tances this year than ever before.
Contractor Black and his men are
rapidly rounding the tent city into
form. Some of the campers, it is said,
will move in aSturday, to get the enjoy
ment of one day of camp life before the
business Of the assembly begins.
