home for breaking his mothers heart.
He hears the strains of "My Old Ken

How he lives in fear of being exposed,
how a william tried to wreck his life
and take his sweetheart from him and
how he wins in the end is unfolded in
4 great hig human way.

 MAWALK-AWAY
By Associated Press

I.atonia, Ky, July 1.-Thibodaux.
 surprise horse of the Kentucky spo- cial, when he ran a sensational
 second to Whiskaway and beat Nor vich, came back today and won the Latonia derby from Yoshimi and Olympus in the easiest kind of fashion. Withdrawals of Broomster
 and Margaret Windsor had reduced the field to three starters.
 The race was run over distance of mile and one-half for a purse of s15,00o added. $2.00o of which went to the second horse and $1,000 to the third.
 Olympus was first to show in front when the barrier went up, Thibodaux following and Yoshimi, a slow beglu- ner, trailing. At the half mile. Olympus had increased his lead to
 three lengths and appeared to be running easily. This position he
 maintained until the horses turned into the back stretch. Here Jockey Earl Pool. on Thibodaux, passed the Whitney horse, which seemed then to be tiring. Entering the stretch, Thibodaux was 10 lengths in tho lead. This he maintained until the enu, paSslnB tno iiniSn line III coih- mon canter 10 lengths before Yos-
 himi. The latter move up coming
 into the stretch, and at the eighth pole passed the favorite and took the place money by margin of five lengths.
 A $2 mutual ticket on the winner Eetted $350 to win and $40 to place. Yoshiml paid s330 to place. While the time was 4 1-5 seconds more than the track record of 2:2s 3-5 for the distance. held by Minto II, there were many horsemen who believed that had the colt been ridden out, these figures might have been equaled, if not lowered.
