was won yesterday by Thomas J. Hicks
Of Cambridge, Mass. Albert P. Corey
of Chicago came in second, and A. New
ton of New York third.
Fred Lorg Of New York finished first,
but after protests had been made by other
contestants he admitted that he had rid
den part Of the twenty-five miles Of the
Marathon route in an automobile. He
was Immediately disqualified and the race
was given to the Cambridge man. who
finished right on his heels and ran a fast
and game race thruout.
During greater part Of the journey
the thirty-two contestants were badly
strung out over a mile or two, but at
the finish those who had not fallen at
the roadside were well punched. Lorg,
1t is understood, was one Of those who
were exhausted and was picked up by one
of the automobiles which accompanied the
runners. When he revived he resumed
his race and finished with a wonderful
burst Of speed
Fully 5000 spectators occupied the
stands when the athletes appeared In the
arena for the start. President Francis
and Mrs. Francis arrived early and took
a position in front Of the starting place.

SMASH GOES 4
STATE RECORD.
ECSTATIC WaIRLS OVER THE
MILE COURSE IN 2:o514.
It Was in the 2;13 Pacing Event That
the Time Was Made Clipping Two
Seconds OFF the Best Minnesota Rec
ord.

Ecstatic, an eastern horse appearing for
the first time on the western circuit, made
good at the fair grounds yesterday by
pacing the second mis-, Of the 2:13 pace in
2:05A, thus winning the $4,000 st. Paul
purse and breaking the Minnesota state
record.
The recora established by the little
eastern PAGER Is two seconds faster than
any time made on the western circuit
this season, and 8 only one second slower
than the fastest racing mile done on any
track this year. The previous Minnesota
harness record for a race was 2:05A, made
by Giles Moves, driven by West, at the
state fair In 1903.
Aside from the record breaking pace set.
the race was interesting far beyond the
ordinary. Ten entries faced the starter
Tor the first heat. and the field contained
many fast ones. Hazel Patch was the
faVor1te at the speed barns. while Black
Hal and West were no mean opponents
Ecstatc laid low from the wire to the
three quarters, when West, by g, magnifi-
cent burst Of speed, took a lead Of two
lengths, and then Lang sent the little
eastern horse out after the leader. Slow
~ but surely the gap was narrowed, and
as they turned into the stretch at a heart
breaking pace West only led by a neck.
Then came magnificent struggle, but
Ecstatic was too much for the gamey
son OF West Wilkes, and shot under the
wire winner by a length. The other
two heats were hard fought, but EcstatIo
won both in record breaking time.

SQUAD IS GIVEN
TRIAL AT BLOCKING
FOOTBALL BOYS GET A TASTE OF
THE "REAL THING.''
Two More Men Arrive-one Is Kramer,
Who Won an emf Last Year in
Iowa and Michigan Games - He Is
in Good Trim and Eager for Game.

In addition to it's regular work, the
university football squad at Coney Island
was allowed to do light blocking yester-
day. Two teams were lined up and in
structed in carrying the ball and break
ing up old formation plays. This gives
the men but a taste Of the real thing
which is in store for them as soon as
they get back Northrop field
Two more men were added to the squad
last night. Kramer, Who won his IN
last year by playing in the Iowa and
Michigan games, came out on the even
ing train, and is looking very healthy in
deed. The other is Harmon, a new
candidate from North Dakota.
Yesterday morning Stevens took the
weights of all the men. The results, at
ter five days in camp, show that the
Coney Island table can not be beaten. But
few boarders remain at the hotel, and
Mr.. zeglin says he is giving the football
boys his special attention. The rush
for the diningroom at meal time shows
that his efforts are appreciated.
