WONDERFUL BLACK PAGER
 BREAKS ALL THE RECORDS
Once More He Goes After Prince Alert Takes Second and Half off Half Mile, Pacing in .56 Flat--Two Seconds
 off His Own Wagon Mark of Lexington.

Memphis Tenn, Oct. 27.-Dan Patch Q:56 1-D within forty-five minutes elapsed time this afternoon smashed two world s records in succession on the track of the Memphis Trotting Association. First he went against the worlds half mile pac- ing record of 0:57 1-2 held by Prince Alert and clipped a second and half from the record. negotiating the distance in 0:56 flat Next he hung out a new worlds record for a mile pacing to wagon, making the mile in 1:57 1-4, two seconds better than the time of 1:59 1-4 which he made at the meeting on the Lexington track, the worlds record until this afternoon. Major Delmar, E. E. Smathers' two minute trotter. in attempt also to lower his own record, won. He cut quarter second from the two minute mark. mak- made in 30 seconds: the half in 100 and three quarters in 1:29 3-4.
 In making the half mile trial against time, driver McHenry started from the within a short distance of the half mile pole, where two runners to sulkies were picked up. the forward sulky carrying the customary canvas dust strip. The three horses swept by the pole and McHenry
 Starter Newton dropped the red flag and the watches of the timers were set in mo- ton to catch the new record for half mile. The quarter was maue m 70 l-Z and the pacer dashed under the wire with the slender hands of the timers watches sharp on the prick of 0:56. The demon | stration from the grand stand was quite as enthusiastic as those which was given Dan Patch when he set the mile record of 1:56 1-4 and Lou Dillon when she nego' tiated a mile in 1:5S 1-2. but 1t and the other noisy acclamations of the new champions were all ecllpsed by the en- l thusiasm of the spectators when Oar Patch came upon the track to set a new | wagon mark for the mile.
 With few preliminary breezings before the grand stand. start was made witt two runners as pacers and the magnificent
 son of Joe Patchen gave no sign, o
 fatigue from his feat of lowering tn,
 made in 0:29 1-2; the half In 0:5S 1-2 anc
 the three-quarters in 1:&. Under tn, wire the champion pacer dashed in 1:57 l.
 showing little effects of having smashed two records in single afternoon. Tht
 pacer was driven by McHenry in tn,
 wagon trial.
 The afternoons program was the long
 est of the meeting. Besides two event for amateur drivers, five races were dis posed of and the favorites were general!
