also tore the large tent over the dining
stands partially down just before the
races began and caused hurried scat
tering. Between the events the people
amused themselves by beating their
hands together to relieve them of their
rumbness.
The first event of the afternoon was
the caballeros race of one mile. Jim
Hawkins was in the lead when the
judges stand was passed, with his
brother, "Tom Hawkins" a close sec
ond. Some good exhibitions Of riding
were given and as usual in a race of
this class there were some "also rams"
far in the rear. The prizes were $50
for first and $25 for second.
The first heat of the chariot race
came next and the other heats were
run between the other events. Two
cIlariots ran in each heat, twice around
the half mile track. There were four
entries and the losers in the first and
second heats ran the third and the
winners ran the fourth.

prize for the first place by driving one
Of the prettiest races in the last heat
ever seen at the park. The $500 second
prize went to Edward T. Off, whose
team was driven in the last heat by
Mac Virgins.
Off was lucky in drawing the pole in
the first heat, as this gave him great
advantage over the team driven by A.
p. Gaylord, on account of turns in the
track being so short that the outside
team had to outstrip the pole team a
great distance In order to pass them.
Off took the heat easily.

chariot racer who has contested fire.
quently at Tournament park drawing
the reins over a team belonging to
Lewis N. Merritt, drove in the second
heat. Michel drove good race not
withstanding the fact that he was at
disadvantage on account of his OPP
ponent having the pole. Vests team
were In good form and showed superior
training. He was first under the wire
and was driving easy When the
judges stand was passed he tossed his
whip at Michel with nod that said,
"Take it, you need it more than 1 do"
Loses Control of Team
Michel lost control of his team,
which was composed of some very high
spirited animals, in the third heat and
they ran twice around the track be-
fore he could bring them TO a stop with
the aid of the cowboys on their broncos.
Gaylord passed under the wire several
lengths In advance of Michel on the
start but was passed by the latter at
the first turn. The judges declared II
to be no heat but on account OF APP
darkness and several events
being unfinished, reversed their de-
cision and gave Michel the third prize
Of 5000 Gaylord received the fourth
prize which consisted OF 500 In cash.
Mac Virgins, driving Offs team, drew
the pole in the last heat and disap-
pointed the crowd when he allowed
West to pass him at the first turn but
sprang a surprise upon the audience
when he recovered much of the lost
ground on the home stretch and was
beaten but a few feet.

speaker puts the question. There is

he says, THE ayes to the right, the

the "ayes" and the noes" go into re-

This takes some time, for they go
leisurely. When at length they are
both within their respective pens all
the doors leading to them are closed,
and after minute or two the one door
through which the prisoners in each
lobby are to make their exit is opened.
Before reaching the exit they have to
pass on either side of a desk at which
two clerks sit and check Off on a
