R.v CARROLL R. MULLEN. TOOTERS, a 6-year-old mare was nothing more than a fair race horse before coming to Omaha's Ak-Sar-Ben summer meeting, but yesterday she proved a sensation at the track when her performance In the fourth race which she won was so good that she lowered lowered the Ak Sar-Ben track record for five an one-haJf furlongs. Her time for the distance was l.uo Toosters and her lone stablemate, Texas Chief, may have been bad act ors before coming to Omaha and they may have been hard to support but their performance here have made th'» owner. H. PIvans, Independently w<« hy for life, in his way of think ing. Coming to Omaha with little more than expectations and less money, Evans entered the platers in several races where they won a good ly share of the purse. On top of that Mrs. C. R. Irwin claimed Tooters fol lowing his victory for $2,600 and Texas Chief was claimed by A. Neal for $9,00. So E. Evans leaves Omaha with more than $5,000 which Is $5,000 .moe than he came with. He has no thoroughbreds left and he says he Is through with the racing game and will spend the rest of his life off of what Tooters and Texas Chief brought him during the Omaha meeting. Jockey Petzoldt, who answers to the name Cossack which his fellow lackeys dubbed him upon learning he was a Russian, proved the leading driver of the day when he mounted three winners. Flossie F. in the sec ond race. Mark Denunzlo in the third, and Tooters in the fourth. In the fifth race he rode Topmast in third to Mysville and AValter Dant. The present meeting was the most rilgecasful ever held here. Presiding ludge Martin Nathanson had many compliments to bestow on AkSar Iten officials, the Omaha race fans and the conduct of those connected ,vlth the racing of their horses here. !Ie said that little trouble was ex perienced in conducting the meeting and predicted a great future for Omaha in the racing game. Everett Buckingham, president or the board of governors, thanked the Omaha people for their conduct at the races and praised Charles L. Trimble, racing secretary, for the ex cellent manner in which the summer mpptinff was Jockey George Sutton took a long chance to win with Byrne in the sixth race of a mile and 70 yards. There is an area on the east turn which has been flooded with a broken main and is consequently flagged to warn Jockeys to take their mounts high around the turn. However, there Is one narrow interval between the rail and the mud which has here tofor been considered unsafe to try passage through. Sutton was ofT first with a good lead, but knowing the distance was beyond Byrnes abil ity to win with so classy a field be hind him, decided to take the chance and went through the narrow inter val with safety and consequently opened up a big lead in the hack stretch which was necessary because Regrcso, who was taken high around the turn, came down the stretch fast and Byrne barely won by three quar ters of a length with Boreas third. Sutton's ride was a daring one and a false slip would have thrown Jockey and rider, with possible Injury to both. A crowd of 8,000 was In attendance at the races yesterday to bid farewell to the thoroughbreds. Seven races, ^Ith many close finishes by the poor er quality of horses quartered here afforded many thrills to the crowd. It was get away day and the crowd was after the traditional long shot winners for that Occasion, but were forced to see their choices trail the favorites in the majority of events. Mark Dcnunzlo, in the third race, proved the longest pay of the after noon. when his victory returned $1(5.40 straight. Tooters led all the way in the fourth rnce, hut Hlster Susie gave it plenty of competition and lost l>y n nose. Settle, the favorite, was third by a length. Twelve starters took the post in the first race, a dash of five fur longs, and after staying ofT many desperate challenges and wasting badly on the stretch, Kthel H.. the favorite, came home ahead of Inno vation and Miss Herbert. Flossie F., the favorite, was the rlass of the second event, whlrh at tracted 11 platers. She took the lend from Fern Lenf before entering the stretch and won easy by two and one half lengths. Alice Ilyers was third. Texas Chief tried hard In the third rnce, but had to take the place to Mark penunzlon, while Florence Dean, the favorite, was third. Another favorite won the fifth rnce when Mnysvllle took an early lead and won without difficulty, nhpnd of >Valter Dant and Topmast, the later ^Hieing off to a had start In the mile and one-slxtecnth race. Mae Heth was the paddock choice to win the final event a run of a mile and 70 yards, and barely won over the outsider, Laura James. Victor A. was thljd. WESTERN LEAGUE. G. AB. R. H.

Wash., and promoter of a boxing club at Coeur D’Alene, Idaho, arrived in town today with an offer of $500,000 to the winner of the Dempsey Gibbons bout July 4 and the logical contender for the heavyweight championship. He mentioned his preference for Harry Wills, the negro, but declared that he would postpone the selection of an opponent until after the Jess Wlllard-Louis Firpo bout In Jersey City, July 12. ’’I think Wills is the best opponent I could bring against the champion,” the prospective promoter declared. "However, I will wait naming the man until after the Firpo-Willard fight. If that match develops a real contender I will then decide as to the Identity of the most worthy challenger.” In addition to the $500,000 men tioned, Mr. Sexsmith offered Mike Collins $100,000 if he could close the match for him. Just where Mr. Sexsmith intended to conduct the proposed fight he de clined to divulge. Bud Gorman and Harry Drake, re spective sparring partners of Gib bons and Dempsey, will meet In one of the preliminaries to the big show. The men are heavyweights and will go eight rounds or less. The rain drove Gibbons Into a local dance hall for the third time this week and as usual nothing came of It. The challenger outboxed Bud Gorman, Jimmy Delaney, George Manley, Tillle (Kid) Herman and Lackey Morrow with his usual facil ity. Slight excitement was occasion ed when he slipped to the floor with Morrow, a featherweight. , Hart Wins Golf Play at Field Club Ideal golf weather Saturday found many Omaha followers of the ol’ Scotch out on the course*.

A. U. events which will be staged under the auspices of the Omaha Athletic club. Most prominent among the entries will be Charles P. Brookings, Iowa’s world champion in the low hudles. Drake expects much from Bill Peairs in the sprints. Nebraska looks to Ted Smith and Oris Hatch to win them points in the broad and high jumps, both being likely champions in these events Louis Trexler will wear the colors of the state university in the 220 and 440 yard runs, while “Red” Payton will attempt to cop honors in the sprints for Nebraska.

Konetchylses Three Pitchers Against Tulsa Double Header on Program for I Th is Afternoon—Speece Hurl First Game. — By RALPH WAGNER. :.s KON ET< 'H VS k Ms managed to put the first game of the Tulsa series on the proper side of the ledger yesterday afternoon when they —y-^-~nosed the Western league champions out of a 5 to 4 vio tory at League park. "Tex" McDonald. , Buffalo third base ) man, copped the big honors and is partly responsible for said 5 to 4 victory. In n* eighth innir.g. when the score was four all. "Tex'' came to bat with two hands down and clouted the horsehide over the right field timber for a home run. thereby putting the herd in the lead where It managed to stay until the last Oiler had his chance at bat. The Buffaloes were on their well 1 known collective toes Saturday and 1 played a brand of baseball that was pretty good to see. Not a bobble is registered against any one member of the club, and the inflelders handled some "hot ones," too, especially Jim my Wilcox, the guardian of the sec ond sack. Boss Konetchy used his noodle j plenty and as the result three mem I hers of the Omaha hurling staff had a chance to show their wares before i a small crowd. Bailey was the first. then came May and finally Harry ! Lee had to be called to the mound. I May. however, gets credit for winning ‘ the game and as he pitched as well as the next one, deserves the honors. Sherman Yanked. Jack Lellvelt of the champions called on two of his ''chuckers'' In the persons of Sherman and Crum, the latter late of the Indianapolis Associa tion club. Sherman succeeded In i holding the herd at bay until the seventh, when he cracked because of the heat or something Crum relieved I’aul and was bumped for two hits. mong the pair of binglea being Mc Donald's four-bagger. The Oilers got to Abraham Lincoln Daniel Luke Bailey for their first run in the second Inning. Abraham who i had been quite literal with his passes, ualked l^ee. The latter tried to rilfer second and was nabbed, but Crosby singled and so did Sherman. Bennett forced Sherman at second and while ibis wus going on. Crosby went to third, where he was In a position to score on Stuart's single, all of v. he did. In the fourth the Buffaloes evened the count when Konetchy got hit by a pitched hall from Sherman. Bono wltz played big brother to Ed. but Cullop skied out. Wilder walked and "• halley came through with a single that scored Konetchy and tied the score. Oilers Score in Fifth.

Lamb trotted to third and Leiivelt to second. muk irg matters more complicated Lamb pulled a funny stunt when he tried to steal home. Thompson was ex pected to hunt, hut failed and Lamb "as nabbed at the plate May hs.1 re lieved Bailey when Thompson came to hat and his second pitch to Tommy was rapped for a single which Scored ladivelt with the fourth and final Tulsa run. The Buffaloes trailed th* Oilers until their half of the seventh when Kerr worked Sherman for a walk. iloox's dandy triple to center scored Kerr and caused the Herd to taka a new lease on life McDon !J s.t-gl ed and Wilcox scored Sherman's throw to first to catch McDonald nearly went over the grandstand this iittl* error on the part of the Oiler pitcher all-wed McDonald to take second while Konctchjj s si- cle b ■ -st ed him to third.
