"Ante Guy made her first start In
July at North Randall, where she was
unplaced to Binland in 2:05A in the
race in which the Pennsylvania winner
defeated Hollywood Kate. Her next
appearance was at Toledo, where she
won two races, and followed them by

surveyed the latter and then promptly
handed it back, remarking as an heir
loom it might be good watch, but
that he had no use for it.
The following night the marauder
appeared at precisely the same spot
and this time two citizens pointed
their hands skyward at the sound of
his command and the sight of a huge
nickeled revolver.

His most recent affair occurred on
Saturday night when he stuck up
