ID yesterday at the Nelodrome held
a surprise for the rather small
holiday crowd that came to see the
sport that Messrs. Million and Chap
man put on the boards for that day,
Fogler captured the big prize in the
three-cornered hve-mile man-paced
match race and Fred Hill. the clever
Bostonian, was made happy by win
ming the B. M. Stanley mile repechage
affair.
1t was the handicap that furnished
the greatest amount of excitement. the
little match race all by themselves.
Neither Carman, Beck nor Mccarthy,
| those who were punished for teaming
Sunday. rode, as they had not yet paid
their fines.
After they had gone W laps in this
race, they were separated into two
groups, the back-narkers about fifty
yards in the rear, Although Bardgett
made them change pace frequently, it
looked hopeless and it did not seem as
if they would catch up at all, but two
and a half laps from home Folger cut
loose a sprint hat carried him up to
the bunch in front, carrying Fred Hill
on his wheel. When, Joe caught the
bunch he was all in and dropped out
of the race. This LETT Hill with the
riders in front. A lap to go Mac
started his sprint with Kramer and
! EIa rlxa +anyad an h,tt Iin nnt in front
had too good an advantage N he fin
ished first, Kramer and Clarke second
and third, respectively.
The hve-mile match was q hard race;
just as they would get going behind one
pace-maker the other would slow them
up and it looked as IL they would all
blow up before the race would be half
run. Al the crack of the gun Clarke
went out after the pace-maker, with
Kramer and Fogler trailing. This posi-
ton they maintained till the last pace
maker dropped them a lap and a half
to go. Clarke in the effort to- blow
up both the other riders made it a hot
race all the way chasing the pace
maker, overrunning one and making
the other catch them If the pacemaker
did not catch on fast enough himself
A lap and a half to &c, Joe, from the
rear, Started his sprint, going around
the other two. Into the turn they raced
neck and neck till the bome-stretch.
At the bell Folger had gotten around,
riding high; here. as they were going
into the turn, he went down to the pole;
when he struck the turn he suddenly
went up, forcing the other two out of
their stride, spelling whatever chances
they hight have had, getting first by a
good margin.
In the final of the amateur champion
ship, Blatz, Smith, Ericsson and Lotus
We're left to fight it out and they finished
in the order named. The race did not
furnish much excitement. In three
events that they rode together Blatz
and Smith finished one, two.
