HURDLERS BREAK
WORLDS RECORDS

NEW YORK. October 1.-TWO worlds
records were broken yesterday afternoon
at the annual fall games of the Irish
American Athletic Club at Celtic Park.
John J. Eqler. the champion high hur-
der OF the Irish-American Club, leaped
over the obstacles for a distance OF 20
yards in the record time OF 81 3-5 sec
onds. His time was six and two-hfths
seconds better than that made BY Jordan
at Hackensack many years ago.
Charlie Bacon, who captured world hon.
ors at the Olympic games over the low
hurdles, succeeded In annexing the quar-
termile high hurdle record to his credit
He negotiated the distance In one minute
and three-flfths second, beating the mark
made by Jere Mahoney of the New York
A. c., at Buffalo. In 1901. by eight sec
onds. Several times during the year Ba-
con has eclipsed Mahoney's mark. but
sotiating the distance without topping
an obstacle.
In the hammer throw Matt McGrath OF
the New York Athletic Club hurled the
sixteen-pound missile the unprecedented
distance Of 174 feet 1875 inches. but
when the hammer was measured after
the competition the handle was found to
be full inch too long. This deprived
him OF record.
The games were the best held In this
than 200 well known athletes competed.
and a crowd OF more than 5000 cheered
their favorites In each contest
Melvin Sheppard again proved that he
is in e. class by himself In the middle
lance runs. He started from scratch in
the 900-yard handicap, gave his oppo-
nents large handieaps and beat them
easily.
Martin Sheridan captured the discus
event. but failed to equal his record. He
was In great form, and before the compe.
tition hurled the missile to record dis
lance. In the contest the slippery foot
ing made him more cautious, and his best
throw was 137 feet y inch
Johnny Joyce. the former great runner
OF the Winged Foot organisation,
showed spark of his true form and won
the four-mile event easily. He was In
receipt OF a large handicap. but the easy
style In which he romped homo first
stamped him as still being a great dis
lance man. John J. Daily started from
scratch In this event. but tho former
champion held him safe At all stages and
finished twenty yards In front Of Muller
Of the Mohawk A. C. DAILY WAS third.

A dramatic scene marked the pass

daughter of Representative Johnson.
that the success of the local option
lists is attributed. Johnson Is a
democrat and the democrats had been
in OPPOSITION to the bill. and the hall

demonstration. when it was made
known that Johnson would vote In
favor of the bill, and when he arose
to explain his action. As he was
about to do so his little daughter
entered the legislative hail. and vent
over and stood beside him. He com

on his daughters head. and under
