displayed fine form In the Madison
Square Garden games.
Eedlund was the shining star of the
galaxay OF talent sent on by the Bos-
ton A. a. He ran around the field in
the mile handicap and wiped off the
indoor record of minutes 10 As sec
onds. which has stood to the credit of
II. L. Trabe since 1903. Hedlund's
time was minutes is 1-5 seconds.
In addition Hediund had the credit
of running away from Norman Taber.
the Brown university athlete, who had
been widely touted as successor to the
great John Paul Jones. An easy vic-
tory by the crack relay team from the
Hub, which entirely outclassed the
New York A. c. quartet, and win
by Dave s. Caldwell from scratch in
the half mile handicap completed the
trlumphs of the Boston organization.
There was great surprise after the
men had travelled half OF the mile dis
lance when Hedlund began TO draw
away from Taber. Threading his way
through the field of thirty runners
with great persistence he was soon in
hot pursuit Of Charles McCann, an I'M
attached runner, who had worked into
the lead from the sixty yard mark.
Two laps from the finish Hedlund went
by Mccain after brief struggle. and
began his finishing sprint.
Mccain hung on well and the
scratch man was forced to his best to
win by five yards. O. Gibbons, OF the
n Y. A. c.. 10 yards. was close In
the wake OF Mccain all the way
around the last lap and was beaten
only three feet for the place Taber
finished fourth, twenty-five yards be-
hind the winner

Red Sox to Trade

rotary McRoy left for home AFTER
landing smoky Joe" Wood. In fact'
but Tor the desire to bring Joe to
terms there was little seemingly TO
bring the Red Snx officials here.
AS expected, Wood was induced to
sign with very little trouble. Joe had
been pretty well satisfied by his con-
ference with McRoy and Stahi on
Monday night. Wood and McAleer
were divided over the matter or $i.-
600. but d compromise was effected,
they aplit the difference, and Joe
signed q one-year contract finally. II
is believed that the Boston ptcner
originally held ~out for $4,000. but
that 1880 is the price he will re-
.ccive for the seasons work.
The impression gains ground all tne
time that Bill Carrigan is hkely TO
figure in SOME sort OF a trade.V Pres
ident McAIeer denies this. and insists
that he win stand pat with the team

White Sox and Highianders are both

new crop OF motor cars, along comes
the Studebaker corporation with a
feature so obviously good that every
one is wondering why it hasn't been
in general use for years, 1t will be
seen at the Richmond auto show next
week.
The innovation is a seating arrange
ment which, while accommodating
six adult passengers, instead of the
conventional five, presents rakish
graceful lines heretofore attained only
by high powered. four passenger
types.
The new studehaKer body is mar
rowr graceful and long, and avoids
the high, faring rear seat, common
to the popular-p priced touring car. The
ample room IN the tonneau is occu-
pied by four forward facing seats. the
front pair of which when not in use
fold compaetly and pivot against the
sides out Of the way.
This body will be the standard
equipment Of both the Studebaker
"35'' and the Studebaker Six
Another Studebaker novelty is an

vice declared a marvel OF power.
simplicity and compactness. This de-
vice, declared marvel of power,
means Of q silent chain. When the
car lis running, the electrical appa-
ratus stores up current. The crank
ing operation is governed by cable
attached to a handle on the steering
column. With this cable held taut.
the electric motor cranks the car in
defin;tely--for half hour, if neces-
sary-~at a speed Of 80 revolutions
per minute.
Sales Manager Benson declares that
the new line enables Studebaker deal
ers to fill every possible want of their

Harry Bernstein Is
a Hero in Macon,
Georgia, 1t Seems

Harry Bernstein, of Richmond, the
man who discovered Ty Cobb, Is the
present day hero of Macon, Ca He
dared to break tradition of that
town, and the people have risen up
and called him blessed.
Macon, 1t appears. has been domi-
mated by police force that would do
credit TO the thriving city of New
York. Accustomed to the obliging.
polite and altogether efficient police
force of Richmond. Mr.. Bernstein
could not understand the Macon, Ga.
bluecoat who demanded as a right
what even a New York policeman
would consider a privilege. which is
q couple of theater passes when off
duty. In fact, a New York policeman
usually would think of asking for a
couple of theater passes when off
duty just as quick as he would think
of asking John ID. or j. p. for a SIS
note.
According to the Macon papers.
Bernstein stood for the theater ticket

theatre, where Bernstein is manager,
and requested a couple of skulls. :"

mated that he could buy them at the

not been understood. He repeated
that he wanted two seats for the per-

PLEASE AUDIENCE
COMPOSITION BY MIR. HAHH
WINS SPECIAL APPROVAL
IN AUDITORIUM.

The Richmond Philharmonic asso-
citation gave iats third and most sue
cessful concert at the City auditorium
last evening. The remarkable prog
ress which the association has made
since its organization two years ago
has never been better demonstrated
than it was last evening. Each con-
cert has been a great Improvement
upon the one preceding it, and the
support which the music-ioving pub
lie of this city has been giving the as
ISOLATION has kept pace with the grow
ing popularity of the concerts. The
audience last evening was one of the
largest which has attended any of the
concerts, and was most generous in
it's applause.
I Although the program was one of
many features, probably the greatest
was the first performance of Mr..
Frederick Hairs composition. Mi
fsssetttse GTYE&eee. r. The, composition
reflects great credit upon MIR. Hair,
and It's masterful rendering by the
orchestra brought out all of the deli
cate melody which the composer had
infused into IT. The COMPOSITION was
given an excellent reception by the
audience, whose applause was stilled
only when the encore had been be-
gun At the conclusion Mr.. Hair was
presented bv Henry Baker with sew
eral punches of American Beauty
roses. They were tokens of appre-
citation from local admirers and mem
hers of the orchestra.
One OF the most enjoyable features
on the program was the piano solo
with orchestral accompaniment by
Miss Louise Barker. Miss Barker
has several times been mentioned as
one of the NEST promising membe'A
of the association, and has won high
place In local musical circles. She
received quite an ovation upon her
appearance, and was compelled to
respond To- +encores. AT the cpnclu-
sion Of the number she led forward
w Henry Baker, conductor of the
Philharmonic association, TO whom
SO much is due for the perfection
which the organization has attained.
Miss Barker has delicacy of touch
and an expression that is seldom
found, and her "Cuncertstuck won
general appreciation.

no means a small part OF the con-
cert. His two numbers, one of them
