Did you see 1t? See what? Why the
big sprint this morning at 2 O'Clock,
when the whole audience went abso-
lutely crazy. The yell that went up
almost raised the roof when Fogler
closed the gap that his wonderful lit
tie partner opened between him and
the rest of the field, thus giving them
a lap on the entire field.
It was a wonderful sprint and worth
going miles to see. 1t reminded one
of the time that Rutt gained a lap al
most by himself.
1t looked as if the foreign riders who
had beer Tapped several times We're
paid by Powers to set a hot pace for
the rest of the field. This setting OF
the hot pace by Brocco yesterday aft
ernoon and evening was the cause OF
Moran feeling peevish and throwing
the Italian Thursday night.
AT FIVE minutes before 2 o'clock La
pize made a squirt that carried him ten
yards in front of the field. Clarke
tackled on and they seemed to settle
down to the hot pace set by the for
eigners all evening, when Jackie, who
had come out in a white sweater a
short time before. made his bic.
The jump that carried him past La
Pie at a dizzy speed reminded one OF
the jump of Mjaor Taylor at his best.
Streaking past the foreigner he was
away before the field realized its dam
ger, and only the warning shout of
the audience told them that something
was afoot. The first sprint had strung
out the other riders pretty well, and
Jackie began c~ircling the saucer lap
after lap until he had the last man
of the bunch in view. He began COM
ing up on him like he does in a han
dicap race, when he is after the limit
men.
Every man was hustled out on the
track. Although Jackie did not look as
if he needed any assistance, Joe Fogler
went out, and making a beautiful pick
up, closed the rest of the gap remain
ing, and then he was relieved by Jackie,
who came up with the leaders.
TO our shame, be 1t said, the cham
pion was one of the last in the field
that was strung out pretty nearly all
over the track, but the damage was
done.
For the last two a good deal

esting that was ever run, and from the
point of excitement, and attendance,
too. The of the ace will do
we'll next year to see that the brand or
refereeing and scoring Is OF a higher
order. A few times during the race
every rider was off the rack. Surely
all of them did not have a good reason
for staying off. At times it turned into
a farce. A good many OF the rules
went by the board and were ignored
and utterly disregarded.
Hill surely had hard luck in this race,
and the bad luck continues. OF course,
the worst thing that befell him was the
loss of that very valuable partner.
Since then he has made many tries for
the forfeited lap and has nearly sue
ceeded a number of times, but each try
is spoiled by a fall at an inopportune
moment.
Let us take our hats off to Lorenz
and Saldow. The latter has been rid
ing for a good many hours with a
broken rib, and his partner has had so
many falls that it is a wonder that he
hangs together. But they are there all
the time. Always in the van and ready
to take up the burden when anyon
starts something. A jam that started
shortly before midnight cost Palmer
and Wells a lap. Unless something un-
usual happens more teams will finish
this year than ever before.
Poor Stein and Thomas, the "kid
team" did their best and no one car
do more than that. Stein hung on when
he seemed to be going out of his head.
The same can be said of Wells. Jumbo
seemed to be asleep on his wheel sew
eral times and had to be lifted off.
Altogether a number OF teams sur
prised everybody by their performance.
One would think that Drobach and
Halstead would be glad to let well
enough alone. But a little before mid
night tho lam" that put Wells and
Palmer a lap to the bad was started by
Pete. And 1t looked dangerous, believe
me, They relieved one another as rap
idly as they could, and II 1t had not
been for the untimeiy spill. in which
Moran and Hill went down, the top
notchers would have the pleasure Of
having the choice of shaking this team
in twenty-five hours, or sprinting a
mile for a second place at the end of
the race. Yes, sir, 1t looked every bit
as bad as that.
Some mighty strange things have
happened. 1t Is possible that IN the
few hours remaining the champ might
get on even terms with his Australian
rival. Everybody is mad and all wrought
up. The champ is not used to playing
second fiddle. He will try his hardest
to gain that lap. hi prospect Of play
ing second fiddle to Jackie is not a very
pleasing one. and the attempt to get
that lap may be made in the last ten
minutes Of the race.
The lap gained by Jackie and Joe
makes one thing certain; that Is a
fighting finish, and surely no fan can
ask for more than that.

Knock u a long drive that falls foul

TIN HURST TELLS TOM HUGHES,

Tom Hughes, of Washington, tells this story about Tim Hurst:
You remember the old Washington grounds, with the hospital just
outside the left field fence? One day l was pitching against Cleveland
and was getting a n awful lacing, which was strange, as I usually had
something on the Maps. But Lajoie. Bradley and Hickman were threat
ening the lives of patients in the hospital with their drives that day

was getting. l made the mistake of trying to take revenge N Hurst
1 might have had a chance with an average jumps but not with Timothy.

my pitching. Finally l turned and asked;
who's pitching this game anyway

Apropos of Jim Jeffries's argument,
several cases may be sighted wher a
champion has tried to drop his title to
private life, only to be yanked back
in the ring again.
Jim Corbett sought to throw the lever
on Bob FftzsimmonS by spreading the
heavyweight mantle about the Shout
ders of Peter Maher.
Fitz got The counterfeit champ be-
tween the ropes at Langtry, Tex, and
what the Cornishman did to the
big Celt was little short of manslaugh-
ter. 1t took Bob less than one round
to knock Peter to his back, and one
year later he forced Corbett back into
the ring and won the heavyweight
Championship.

How to Use Red Cross Seals.

How to Use Red Cross Seals is
the title of an interesting publication
recently issued by the National AssO-
citation for the Study and Prevention
of tuberculosis.
Red Cross Seals must be placed
only on the back of letters and not
on the address side of packages that
are going through the mail. They may
be placed anywhere on matter going
by express. Care should be taken in
sending merchandise through the
mails not to place seals i've the
strings with which the package is tied,
since this seals the package against
inspection and subjects it to first
class postage rates. AS many seals
may be used on the back of a letter
or package as may be desired. Every
one is urged to use them literally,
since every seal is a bullet In the war
against tuberculosis.
Red Cross seals are not good for
postage. and will not carry mail mat
ter, but any kind of mail matter will
carry them. Finally, every letter or
parcel sent out, either by mail or in
some other way, during the holiday
season should bear one or more Red
Cross Seals.

The Genevieve Who Was Just Dimples

Genevieve was the dearest little
.blue-eyed beauty that you ever saw.
She was sweet enough to give a man
spasms Of JOY, just to look at her. Her
dimples were as twinkling beautiful
as an average beauty's eyes and her
dear little hands chung to a mans arm
like-oh we'll, Just like dear little dim
pied hands. You can't beat that, any
way.
Her smile was a beam of sunshine,
and as for her figure! James felt for
her with the maddest enthusiasm, and

and this James having clear, grey
eyes and a set, determined chin, as
well as a good salary, he married Gen.

after.
James was awfully happy, too, on
his honeymoon. He saw life through
a rosy mist. He was sure-sure-that
heaven can come to earth, and ever
more sure that he settled down into
the coolest corner of the sky-parlor.
And he put Genevieve and her dim
pies on a pedestal and worshiped
them.
James had prepared out of his sal

went when his leave of absence was
over. He was paying for the house
