VIII Try for Track Record.

There is also a special on Friday
when c. Robinson will endeavor with
his wonderful horse, r. F. D., with a
mark of 2:05A, to break the track
record of 2:13A r. F. d. will undoubt
edly break this record and horsemen
predict that he will hang up a mark
in Crown Point better than 2:10.
The management has used every eff
fort to make the racing program the
best that Crown Point has ever had.
and it undoubtedly will be. because
there is now stabbed at Crown Point
more than seventy of the best horses
in the country ready to fight for the
money.
The Judges.
J. A. Gavit of Hammond. William
Gostlin of Hammond and James Ma
lone of Valparaiso, are the judges, while
o. W. Hill of Hammond, DIR. Rice of
Hebron, and Molenix of Hebron are
time-keepers.
The other features of the fair excel
anything in its history of fifty years
and any person who possesses a drop
of racing blood who fails to attend the
races on Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday of this week, will miss some
thing that they will be sorry for.

Friday a "Hum Dinger.-

Fridays program, using the words of
a street urchin, is a hum dinger."
There are horses named in the 25 pace
who have been miles in 2:oS. 1t will be
very hotly contested. Hammond has
one horse belonging to w. ]. McAleer
which will undoubtedly be factor in
this race.

Hammond Horse Will Only
Be Entered in One Race
at Fair This Week.
FAST HORSES IN THE RACES
y. A. Gavit and W. H. Gostlin of
Hammond Will Act as Two
of the Judges.

Much to the Disappointment of the
many admirers of Laura Fay, w. j.
McAleer's pacing mare, she will race in
only one of the races at the county
fair that of Friday in the 2:25 pace.
She has been entered in the 800 pace
for tomorrow and the 2:19 for Thurs
day but owing to her coalition she has
to be withdrawn.
Her owners says that this is due tC
the change in water that has been
given her in Crown Point.
Aside from Laura Fay, the races this
week will have other popular horses
which have been on the Crown Point
track before and which come back as
old acquaintances.
Week Unequaled in History.
Never before in the history of th'
Lake County Fair has it offered sucl
large purses, consequently every race
is filled with some of the tastes

The three minute trot has ten en-
tries with some horses in it, who it i'
said, are capable of trottig better thar

entries, and 1t is said a number of the
horses in the pace can make 2:12
required.
Thursdays races has the 2:2S tro
with nine entries, some of which ar
very fast. There is also the 19 pac
on Thursday with ten entries and
number of the horses can pace aroun
2:12. The IS trot has three entries
All of the horses in it are we'll know
and very fast.

KIDNAPPED GIRL
TELLS AWFUL STORY
Rescued From Howell in New
York City.

New York, Oct. "a horrible story
of mistreatment after she had been
spirited away from her home in ia
maica, L. l., was told by 16 year old
Lena Thorn when she was rescued by
policemen from the filthy hovel in
East New York, where she declares she
had been held a prisoner for six weeks.
Rayfield SUISSE and Annie Carlo, who
are charged by the girl with having
aided in keeping her a prisoner, have
been arrested.
SUISSE is charged with abduction,
criminal assault, keeping a disorderly
house and resisting an officer. Annie
Carlo is charged with aiding in kidnap-
ing the girl.
After the girl disappeared from her
home six weeks ago the police search
ed in vain until people in the vicinity
of the SUISSE house reported that they
had heard a woman's screams coming
from the place at all hours. Police
men surrounded the house and burst
through the front door.

indianapolis, Ind, Oct. 2-Prepara-
tons for a whirlwind finish of the
campaign are being made at the head
quarters Of the two state committees.
Chairmen Hayes and Hendren, of the
rival speakers bureaus, are now plan
ming meetings for every county, to
be addressed by some of the most not
ed men in the country.
At the Republican headquarters hope
is held out that President Roosevelt
will take the stump and make a tour
that will include Indiana. Give us
three speeches from President Roose-
welt. and there will be nothing to it
but the shouting" is the way the Re-
publican leaders are talking at the
committee rooms.
Chairman Hayes says that the meet
ing this year are larger than they have
been since the last Cleveland-H Harrison
campaign in 1892. Representative
Watson is having larger meetings than
ever BEFORE" said Chairman Hayes.
that is saying a good deal, for he has
been one of the most popular cam
paigners we have had in recent years.
Every speaker the national commit
tee has sent us is being received by
large and enthusiastic crowds. The peo-
pie are interested. The kind of meet
ings we are having makes us feel sure
that the Republicans are going to
win
While Chairman Hayes's associates
agree with him as to the size of the
meetings, they also declare that cou-
pie of speeches by President Roosevelt
would help cinch the state for Taft. A
half way promise has been made that
Taft shall tour Indiana in a special
train the latter prt of October. The
Republican leaders say that it is neces-
sary for him to come SO that the
masses can get acquainted with him.
Chairman Hayes says that Senator
Beveridge will begin his Indiana tour
October %. He will make at least a
| dozen speeches. Governor Hanly will
make his first political speech tonight
at Brownstown. There is much spec
ulation as to what he will say. Thomas
R. Marshall, Democratic nominee for
governor, has been attacking Hanly,
and it is believed that the governor
will make a sizzling reply.

Just how that rotary motion Is nc-i

the undcrspin by being hit below tho

theory, as we'll as in occasional prac-ss

the right foot. It is with such club
and such q stance that tho highest int
jtial velocity is Impaired to tile ball,
not only when 1t is struck. but during
the whole five or six seconds OF Its
flight In the air.
But the bugler needed such extra
ordinarily correctShitting that 1t failed
to become a popular club, so that in
the process OF time all concaye faces
have beenf filed flat.
At present the working theory OF tho
long driver Is timing the shot. In
the opinion OF some tho word Is mis-
used. us 1t conveys the idea TINT tho
tee shot Is not n continuous action Of
ono rhythmical movement OF the club,
but rather a movement which may be
divided into one, two or three parts.
Now 1t Is an almost 5undisputed factl
that for n tee shot the ideal swing to
be successful as we'll as straight must
be a harmonious movement In two d.
rections along one undertaking orbit.
There is, OF course, an almost lmper-
ceptible pause at.the top OF the swing,
but among the best players the pause
Is SO imperceptible as to be beyond
general recognition. M
The truth of the driving theory is
that there must be no turning pause
OF the club head. It is the rapidity
with which the downward swing is
made to travel in the line marked out
forit by the upward swing. with that
amount OF velocity being given to the
club head as 1t nears the ball. which
the real secret OF long
driving. and the larger the circle the
club headtravels, the longer the flight
Of the ball
No less Important factors are the
cooperation OF the feet,
legs and true grip of the club. There
has been a great deal OF discussion az
to what part the wrists play. Some
experts claim that except for the turn
Ing. Of the club, the wrists are OF no
use.
