The second skating race for the
championship of the state, between
Harry Carpenter of Crookston and
Francis LeBeau of Duluth, was
skated in the city last evening, and
resulted in an unsatisfactory man.
ner, Carpenter winning the race by
about ten feet, after LeBeau had
made claim of being fouled by
Carpenter, few laps from the close
of the race, while Carpenter was
attempting to pass LeBeau, who was
at that time in the lead.
The judges did not allow the foul
and declared Carpenter the winner,
which incensed LeBeau. and he de-
cIared that he would not skate Thurs
day evering and finish the series of
three races, for the championship.
When the pistol was fired starting
the race, both men jumped, Carpen-
ter rounding the first turn in the
lead. LeBeau followed closely and
trailed Carpenter, remaining about
two feet behind the Crookston boy.
Carpenter maintained his lead
until the fifteenth lap, when LeBeau
passed him and assumed the lead.
Both skaters put forth every effort,
after the fifteenth lap, but LeBeau
maintained his lead.
On the twentieth lap, both men
spurted down the side of the rink,
and when they attempted to turn
the corner they came together, and
LeBeau at once claimed foul, bas-
ing his claim on the assertion that
Carpenters, skates had come in
contact with his when he (LeBeau)
was in the lead.
Carpenter went to the front, but

special train will be run from either
Duluth or Superior in combination,
or both individually. During our
visit to Ashland, Wis, this month,
we were besought with inquiries
regarding Bemidji and its loyal Elks,

also, will send delegation"

to be declared the champion of
Minnesota, by virtue of each of the
skaters having defeated Munich of
Minneapolis.
The first race, Tuesday was
won by LeBeau by three feet, after
very exciting contest.
The second race, last night, was
won by Carpenter, LeBeau entering
a protest, claiming he had been
fouled.
The race tonight will be called
promptly at 9 o'clock, and there
will be skating, both before and after
the race.
The skaters will start from
opposite sides Of the rink, thus doing
away with any possibility of a foul
on the part Of either skater.
