Record.


near enough to touch him.
The day was simply perfect and the
track in prime condition. He was paced
by a running mate, Mike the Tramp, to
a sullky. Cresceus had no wind break
whatever. The first quarter was made in
80 seconds, the half in 59%, the three
quarters in 100 and the mile in 1891.
George H. Ketcham, who owns Cres-
ceus and who drove him today, said:
The conditions were perfect. When I
was here week before last the track was
wet, but l saw its advantages and deter
mined to come back. The result justified
my expectations. knew before the race
that the stallion would beat his record
but l did not anticipate a triumph so
complete. l shall go to Oklahoma City
and Fort Scott right away to keep en-
gagements and that will be the last time
Cresceus will appear in public"
