The races were called promptly at
100 and got away with a very few
minutes delay. The aeroplane was
wheeled to position at about O'clock
and got away a few minutes later, the
aviator making a fine fight and re-
naming in the air for nearly 10 Minis
utes. He made a very steep bank as
he came down and landed gracefully
in the infield. The ball game was Il
little late in starting but proved to be
an interesting one and was watched
by good crowd.
The vaudeville artists hurried
through their program but gave it in
full and put in a few extras for good
measure.
The racing did not develop anything
sensational, although some good fin
ishes were shown in two Of the class
es. Andy Ashland had things his own
way in the 215 pace but there was a
good fight for second between Charlie
Again and Ell Gallo. Alton Richardson
of this city drove Charlie Again in the
last two heats and was able to land
him under the wire a winner for the
second money of the heat. The 2.3O
trot was an easy thing for Harlem
Express but there was hot fight for
second between the other three horses
| in the race, with Frank Ward finally
winning. The 2.27 trot and pace went
to split heats owing to an accident in
the third heat, which set back Baby
Doll so that Driver Richardson had
no chance of winning

DETROIT HEARS ROOSEVELT.
Makes Three Addresses and Shakes
Hands With Thousands.


Detroit, Mich, May 22.-Theodore
Roosevelt urged thorough military
preparedness for the United States
and pleaded for true Americanism in
three addresses here on Friday, dis
cussed social Justice" before the con-
vention of the Brotherhood of Rail-
way Trainmen and shook hands with
several thousand persons at a public
reception in a downtown hotel short
ly before departing for New York.
Speaking at luncheon at the De-
troit Athletic club, Mr.. Roosevelt de-
clared that true Americanism means
unity of the nation without regard to
the lands from which our fathers
came; without regard to religious diff.
ferences, and without regard to the
different sections of the country in
which we live"
The set speech for the day was de-
livered at the opera house. There,
as at Chicago, the demand for uni
versal service provoked a patriotic
demonstration, which as the colonel
remarked, gives me added proof that
the middle West is sound
Mr.. Roosevelt did not meet Henry
Ford, the local automobile manufac-
turer, although early in the day it
was said the colonel planned to visit
Mr.. Ford at the latter's factory.

WILSON HINTS PEACE MOVE.

Is Ready to Take Action.


Is Ready to Take Action.
Charlotte, N. c., May ga hint
that he may soon move for world
peace was dropped by President Will
son in an address on Saturday to a
tremendous gathering assembled to
honor the little band of mountaineer
farmers who 141 years ago announced
their independence of Great Britain
in the Mecklenburg declaration.
The spirit of these men could be
best translated by America today, the
president declared, if I'VE imagined
ourselves lifting some sacred emblem
of counsel and of peace, of accommo-
dation and righteous judgment before
the nations of the world, and remind
ing them OF that passage in Scripture,
after the wind, after the earthquake,
after the fire, the still small voice, of
humanity
This expression was taken to indi-
cate that the president believes the
time is not far off when America may
give effective impetus to a movement
for worldwide peace.
