NAIL DRIVING CONTEST.
This Event Will Take Place in Can
ton Next Saturday Afternoon
Between Mrs. Fred Smith
and Mrs. Hoffman.

Carl Glaettli, one of the judges in
the ladies nail driving contest recent
ly held in Canton informed a LEADER
reporter Tuesday that he had decid-
ed to have Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Hotf-
man enter another contest in order to
Isatisfy those who think that Mrs.
Smith was entitled to the prize in the
last nail driving contest instead Of
Mrs. Hoffman. Many declared that
Mrs. Smith finished first while others
think Mrs, Hoffman was entitled to
the honor. The nail driving stands
were some distance apart on the day
In question and it was difficult for a
judge to determine accurately the first
to finish, SO Mr.. Glaettlie, TO satisfy
the leading contestants, has decided
TO have the ladies try 1T over and do
their work side by side so that there
will be no chance to make mistake
in naming the winner.
Both ladies handle the hammer like
professional house builders and it
may be safely assumed that it will be
a contest worth seeing. II was not
the value of the prize that aroused
the contestants so much as who was
the fastest nail driver.
In order to make the contest lively,
special prize of $5 has been hung up
for the winner.

RACES AT CANTON.

Under the above heading the Sioux
Falls Argus Leader has the following
concerning the action of Sioux Falls
men who made Sioux Falls Day at the
Canton races such noticeable event
and so highly appreciated by Canton
people:
That the Cantonites who are back
ing the racing association of that city
in their efforts to furnish some fine
sport are appreciative of the fact that
Sioux Falls sent them a fine delega-
tion of spectators each of the three
days of the race meeting was evil
denced when today several Of those
who were instrumental In getting
Sioux Falls to send down large dele
cations each day were invited to Wis
it Canton this evening and participate
In banquet which is being arranged
for the occasion. To no one person
more than G. r. Newly Of the Il. M.
f. company is Canton indebted for
the good showing which Sioux Falls
made. Mr.. Newby is president of the
local automobile club and he should
cred the burden OF working up a
strong sentiment in favor of visiting
Canton during the races. He worked
hard and his efforts we're crowned
with success. Mr.. Newly did not
stop with his boosting for crowd
but he went further and he provided
conveyances to take those vino were
not fortunate enough to have convey
ances Of their own to the Gate City.
1t has been stated that Mr.. Newby
furnished free of cost ten automobiles.
The Argus Leader has learned that
he furnished twice that number cars.
The races Thursday were as inter-
esting as those of the previous days.
Sioux Falls was more interested in
the automobile racing because several
of the entrants were from this city.
In the automobile races II. M. Hes
senius of this city, driving an E. M.
f. car, took first honors when mar
gin of fourteen seconds between him
self and the next contestant, who was
Joe Juel driving Buick. William
Jaeger driving a Flanders 20, was
third, and Dan Bragstad of Canton in
his Halliday was fourth. while the
Velie and F-A-L cars, which exper-
fenced some trouble with their en-
gines, finished fifth and sixth respec-
lively.
H. M. Hessenius won the loving
cup for the best average for the three
days, and also carried off the cash
prize of 800. AS one spectator ex-
pressed it Hessenius drove like the
devil.
Henry Reiser, about lS years of age,
who was driving a FAIL car, dis
played plenty of nerve and drove a
splendid race.
After the regular scheduled races
had been pulled of II. M. Hessenius
in his e. M. f. 30 and William Jaeger
in his Flanders 20 gave an exhibition
race for five miles. 1t was a magni-
ficent race and created as much en-
thusasm as did the regular events.
Both drivers used excellent judgment
and were cheered every time they
passed the grand stand. They dem
Onstrated that there is both speed
and endurance in the e. M. Il. and
the Flanders.
