 tance. haCe.

John T. Daily, the champion Sdis- tance runner ot lreiand, anu Edward F. Carr of the Xavier A. A., met in a special match race of three mpes at Celtic park yesterday, and to the sun prise or those present the 1r1shman was Ndefeated. The track was frozen and lumpy, yet the pair of bare limb ed athletes manager to cover the dis tance in fairly fast time. Daly made the pace all the way and ran the race to suit Carr exactly. The Xavier man simply hopped along behind his big opponent and sprinted by him by fifty yards from the tape, and won by five yards. There were about 1000 persons present.
 At the crack of the pistol Daly shot away and led for the first mile, which was covered in 5 minutes 10 seconds, For the second mile Daily also figured in the van, although Carr tried to get by him a couple of times. The time for two miles was 10 minutes 33 sec onds. The Galway man made all the running in the third mile, with Carr lying close,
 When the bell rang for the last lap Daily hadta slight advantage and kept tearing away in front until the home stretch Then Carr sprinted and stride by stride crawled up on Daly and amid the wiIdeSt. excitement went by him and won Bys HRe yards. The time was 15 minutes 37 145sseconds. The gait for the entirea journey was pret- ty even and well sustained. After the finish it was said that the, pair may meet again at the same distance.
 Daily came to this country on his own hook last August and his first public appearance was in the 1,50O metre steeplechase at SthB Olympic games. He ran a. good second to light body of Chicago, though 1t was evil dent that he thew away his chances of first place by making the Yearly pace a cracker. A couple of days af- forwards at the same meet he won the mile handicap of the 16-yarSl mark in i minutes 27 seconds. SIib- sequently he annexed the two mile A. A. Q. steepleehase championship, the Canadian one and two miles cham pionship and twice defeated Joyce at matches Of five miles. M

 His maiden efforts in athletics were in the broad jump, but he soon discov- cred his abilities as a runner and con- fined all his attention to this branch of sports.
 DaIy has not only beaten all the best runners in Ireland, but has held his own with England's best men. In an eight mile race in England he finished second to Schrubb. Great Britain's most famous distance runner, and was only beaten few yards
 He has won in all four cross country championships of Ireland the four miles dat once, three miles once, two miles once, one mile twice, internation- al mile and four miles once.

Roeber says that Egeherg will be ready for all chal. Iepges as soon has his man has had a rest.

The match will be in all probability decided in Brooklyn and promoted by Ivars Levine of that city Levine has engineered several success fIii contests during the past two years.

HOW PARKER WON.

Harvey Parker, the Little Demon, ' seems to be in great form these days. judging by the way he defeated EIl gene Tremblay of Canada at Lowell Mass, last Friday night Parker, who is the weIterweight catct-as-eatch-ca caA champion of the world, met TFemblay in finish contest, best two out of three falls. Parker secured two straight falls. but had to work verS hard to do so. Tremblay is at the head of his class in Cahada.. Parker cut out the work for the first twenty minutes of the match, but found the Canadian such a hard proposition that he was satisfied to act on aggressive after the first half hour. TremblaS broke half Nelsons, hammer locks and crotch holds with impunity. But Par ker was persistent, and the punish, Ment Ee inflicted on his rival soon be. gun to tell At the end of the fortleth minute TrembIay was the under man. Parker went for hammer lock and succeeded in getting Trembiay's right ara half way around the latter's back. Ttemblay was in this position for a minute or so and had to give in finally. Parker brought both shoulders to the mat for the first fall in forty-ive min, utes.
 The next essay was longer. Trem- play displayed great gameness and Parker was tired from his. efforts to- d8ssh Ahim. But Parker event aaflY se cured a vise7like grip and by degrees forced his opponent on his back, win ming the match The last fall waA made in fifty-five minutes with a crotch hold. Parker, after the strug- gle, left for New York, where he is booked to wrestIe Alex Swanson, the Swedish champion, at the New Polo lA C., 120th street and Park avenue, tomorrow night. Dhis match is to be 10 d finish.
