Ak Racegoers Get Thrill When Miss Stineman Breaks Bit and Runs Away Thomas Makes Brilliant Stop; Leaps From Sulky Superb Finishes Mark Every Race—Another Great Day for Marvin Childs With Ribbon Cane. By L. C. GRAHAM. Beside providing all the customers at the Ak-Sar-Ben track with close finishes and excellant racing an un : . heduled thrill was put on in the first he t of the second harness race. Miss 8 peman, owned by George Boyn ton, Aurora. 111., and driven by Henry Ti'.omas, became frightened when the bit in her mouth broke. The bit parted as the horse swung in‘o the home stretch well ahead of Hie field. Miss Stineman drew against the reins, felt no responding pull and ran away. Thomas did everything in Ills power to stop the horse after the fnish was passed but was un successful. As Miss Stineman rounded the third quarter pole for second time Thomas leaped from his sulky to ifcr back, took a firm grip of the over check rein and stopped the horse. Old trackmen spoke of the feat as as tounding and declared that nothing to equal it had happend but once be fore. on a track in Illinois. Straight Heats for Ribbon Cane. In every race the finishes were superb. Ribbon Cane, Marvin Childs driving, took three straight heats in the first. In every heat another horse contended In the stretch and made Childs drive Ills best to win. Time of the heats was. :30 1-4, 1:01, 1:31 1-2. It was a 2:08 pace over a three-quarter mile track. Hal N. C. A., B. Shively driving, took ■second, and Dillon Reaper, Dennis driving, came in for third money. Miss Stineman .took first In the first heat of the second race, making the three-quarter mile course In :31li. 1:04>4, 1:37V4- She was considered dis tanced after the second heat and was not started in the third. An extra heat had to be run to choose the winner of the race. The second heat went to The Worth. Earl Hart driving, and the thlisd heat lo Ellnore K, Dennis driving. Ellnore K succeeded in easily capturing the ex tra heat. In each heat they ran: First heat, Miss Stineman. Henry Thomas driv ing; Maxey Beau, Douglas driving; Altona, Hawley driving. Second heat: Tho Worth, Ellnore K, and Maxey Beau. Third heat: Ellnore K, Maxey Beau, The Worth. Time: :31Vi. 1*4V4, 1:37%; :31»i. 1:03*4, 1:37; :32V4. 1*4, 1:37; In the special heat, :3J, 1:04V*. 1:40. Evenly Matched Third Race. The third race was the most even ly matched on the card. Each time the pacers got away to an excellent start and held In a bunch all the way around. The first heat went to Mary March; time. :31. 1:02V4, 1:35%. Ben Kitchen came second and Eva Spier, third. The Ftqpnd heat went to Eva Spier; time, :31, 1:02Vi, 1:36. Larkspur took second and Mary March, third. The third heat was. taken by Larkspur: time, :31, 1:03Vi, 1:36%. Eva Spier raced a close second with Mary March on her heels for third. The deciding heat was won by Eva Spier. Four running rai s v. .re staged at the close of the harness events. The jbckeys were no slower than the har ness men in furnishing entertain ment. Eleven in Fourth Racn A field of 11 horses started In the first running race, the fourth event of the day. Querulous, H. Doyle up, got away to a good start and held the lead all the way down the course, finishing JUBt a ‘‘jump'’ atv ad of Seth s Memory, J. Singleton up. and Seth's Flower, H. Zander up, finished % snappy third. Dovesroost, J. Singleton up. came up out .of the ruck 4n the next race to Like first pplace; Moon Winks. E. Taplin up, raced hl.n up the stretch, but failed to start soon enough to overtake the leader. Neg, L. Arm strong up, made a rushing finish for third place. Full Moon, winner of tho sixth event, was claimed off her owner, J. B. McGinn, by D. A. Moore after she crossed the wire a winner. She was the only horse claimed yesterday. Faithful Girl took a place, and Toom beola, despite his sore legs, showed. Donatello Wins by Dig Nose. The closest finish of the day came In the last event when Donatello and Joe Campbell crossed the wire. Joe Campbell, I*. Armstrong up, got away to a good start and held the had more than half way around. Donatello, O. Button up, took things easier until the three-quarter pole was in sight, then he let himself out. The two thoroughbreds came down tin- stretch nock and neck and Dona tello only succeeded In winning by a nose. Bill Mead came In for a poor third w.'tb Overstep, favorite, way back In the ruck. The truck waa fast and the clear day and warmer weather attracted a larger crowd than has attended the meet previously. The crowd was al most as large during the harness races as It was for the runners. Other days the early crowd has l»cen very thin.

Crowds Make It Hard for Police at Polo Grounds By DAMON RUNYO. Stuff Corrmpondent The Omaha Bee. Polo Grounds, New York, Sept. 14.—as early ss four o'clock this af ternoon, wild-eyed dftlzons were tear ing up toward the Polo grounds for the Dempsey Firpo fight. At five o’clock there was a snarl of human ity outside the gates that required the services of a big squad of police to unravel. A large number of men who had no tickets, and no chance to get any, were umong the early arrival*. They knew they were net going to get In side the yard, but they Just wanted to be close at hand. The old viaduct across 155th street wa* festooned with idlers. Coogan’s bluff behind the western end of the grandstand, was decorated with both ladies and gentlemen. For many years past Coogan's bluff was a great point of vantage for a free peek at doings Inside the oval below, but the new Improvements at the Polo grounds have put the cliffs out of business. Grandstand Around Field. The grandstand now extends alt around the field, save in a short sec tion of ernterfleld. where the bleacher seats run slanting toward the sky line. It Is not possible to see more than a few Inches of the Interior of the yard from the cliffs where the gonts once played but the folks still love to stand up there on the edge of the excltment. Inmates of the appartment houses on Washington Heights overlooking the ground took to the roof early In the evening, but they too. have been cut off from their old time free vista. It seems almost an Infringement on their rights Weather l lear. The weather was a bit cool, but overhead the sky was sweetly rlenr. It was n typical autumn evening. It was also typical Rlrkard weather. The luck of the famous promoter with the weather has become proverbial. He has yet to have a postponement of one of his btg outdoor egents through bad weather. Once or twice, notably the Dcmpsey-Cnrpentter fight and the milk fund show, things looked dubious for him at the start, but he had always managed to get his gropram through without Inter ference. It was Just chilly enough to send the excited ringworms td the Polo grounds under light overcoats and they felt very comfortable after the aun went down, which was about the time Jimmy Flynn, the little Irish tenor, was climbing Into the ring and rendering a passionate ballad. A bend beat the very earliest arrivals Into the yard and greeted all comers with a blast of melody. 8.100(1 People There. Tex R'cknrd had moved In mysterl ous ways to perform his wonder of pack'ng Sii.ono persons, more or less. Into the yard only recently elaborated to accommodate p little more that! half that number, the sainn yard where 20,000 was once a terrific crowd. R'ekard had sown the grass field with white pine benches, which spread In alslea ns regular as rows of corn over every foot of thn turf. The ring was pitched In the vicinity of second baee. which put It almost In the center of th« great enclosure. The pine benches stretched sway to the green walls on every elde of the ring Nnylor and Jlrennnn's red capped ushers, familiar at all New V *rk sport events, dashed up and down the aisles Ilk" pilot fish, escorting the ticket holders to their henrhes. There j was a fireman or special ppollcemnn fop every sonar* Inch* of territory. Great arch lights were mounted like euns at regular Intervals slung the top of the towering sta.WVim. spilling a bright glow over the crowd when they were turned on. The in• j • Because of the poor showing Johnny Dundee made against Wagner in Philadelphia the New York state box ing commission approved the action of the Cromwell Athletic club in postponing the fight with Benny Leonard, world's champion lightweight, and is permitting the club to stage the bout later this month* I The Omaha Bee Race Chart DAILY PEERLESS FORM CHART.
