JOLIHT , III. , Oct. 20. Wlthnut any prep
aration for ouch a trial Joe Palohcti , the black
( < acltig stallion , this afternoon reduced the
world's record to a four-wheel sulky by nearly
four nernnils. The record was established all
IiiKalU Park track , this city , before 2,700 I
people , who had been nttmctcd by the an *
iiounccmcnt that Star Pointer would go
against thu wagon and high-wheel sulky
records , and that Joe l\itclicn would try to
' \U his own record of 2:01'/i : , A few minor
rat.'completed the program , but tlio attrac
tion was the big incera , and when It was nn-
nounccil that Star Pointer was lame , and that
his owner , Murphy , lind refused to let him
fulfill his engagement , there was'much dissat
isfaction. Hut M- . Marks , the owner of Joe
I'atchcn , agreed to let the black horse take
Star Pointer's place , and go against the
wagoti and high wheel sulky records , and
this announcement was greeted with loud ap-
Previous to this , nbout 3 o'clock , the great
son of Putchcn U'llluw had gone a really te-
markablo mile In attempting to heat Ills own
record of 2:0l'i. : Driven by Atkinson , he
went the circuit in 2:02 : 1. lowering the
ItiKitH'a pnrk record. The time by ( jiwrtors
was : 0.11'iJi. : 1:02 : , l:32'/j : ' , 2:02 : % . Several
watches caught the time In 2:02',4 : ,
The horse wan urged a great deal In this
heat , but na ho did not appear again until
'
I o'clock to make his tilal against the wagon ,
or four wheel sulky record , ho was probably
In well nigh i-erfect condition Tor the latter
trial. The \vlnd , too , had died down to almost
nothing , and but for the cold atmosphere
and the horse's unfamlllarlty with the vehi
cle , It being the first time he had been hitched
to a four-wheel sulky this year , the condi
tions tor a great performance were propitious.
Oscar Ames was In the sulky In place of At
kinson , owner Marks having made a contract
with the former trainer of Colonel TaylorV
liorso during the afternoon.
After scoring once Ames signalled for tlio
word and away the big black wont , with the
magnificent HtrM ? now so familiar to tlio fol
lowers of iio ! harness horse In the vicinity
of Chicago , and with the running mate trail
ing a length or two away. Ames rated his
charge splendidly , coveilng the first . .uartor
In 0:32 : , skimming along the back stretch
With the HUlllon moving cuslly In 0:31. :
Around the far 'turn the pacer faced the
breeze , whatever there was of It. but It was
hero that Ames llrst urged him , while the
running mate , too , drew along , end ifspoud-
Ing to the call , the coblo l'citehei : sed over
the third quarter In 0:30 : . It was now a
foregone conclusion .that the record would bo
broken and outbursts of applause began be
fore the hors was well straightened out for
homo. Ames know the staying power of tli9
horse and never relinquished ui mg him by
voice and an occasional shnrji ciack of tlio
whip. The result WHS the last quarter was
made In G:30 : % , the time of the last half
mlle being 1:01'/i : ' , and the great pacer fin
ished strong and trim In 2:01 : % , nearly ) four
The former record Is held by w W P. hav
ing been made at St. Paul In 1SD , " . The an
nouncement of tlio tlmo by Starting Judge
Newton elicited prolonged clieTS.
Joe I'atchcn appeared fairly tired after
the trial , but nevertheless ho was taken to
the Htnble. rubbed down and prepared for
his trial against the high wheel sulky rec
ord also , according to agreement. The gen
eral verdict. was he would not be able to re
peat his record breaking , although the high
wheel record , held by Johnston , is 2OiHi : ,
.in.il the black would not need to go as fast
as his tnlln to the wagon in order to win.
It was 5:15 : p. m , when the horse came on
tlio track hitched to the high wheeled sulky
which bad been made especially for Star
Pointer. Alter two scores Ames signalled
for the word and they were sent away , the
runner trailing as before. The cpiarter was
reached In 32'/4 seconds , the same time as
made In the trial with the wagon , but the
second quarter showed a decrease of speed ,
the time being 1:03 : % . The three-quarters
was reached In 1:3 ! > Hat and the mile In.
Z'OG i. halt a second short of the record.
This , however , "beats " the- best efforts made
by John It. Gentry this season against the
same mark.
During the afternoon Star Pointer was
Jogged In front of the stand. Ills leg was
Injured at Indianapolis some uecks ago
jind again hurt at St. Joseph on October 7.

NU\V IIAVK.V , Oct , 20. The surprise of
the season In the foot ball world was fur
nished by Drown lisre today , when Captain
Kultz's men broke through th > Yn'le line al
most at will and run up a total score of 14
points to Vale's IS , scoring three touchdowns
against the home team , 'the ' largest score eve ?
made on the Yale field against a Yale eleven.
Yale secured no more touchdowns than did
tlio visitors , but her goal kicker , Guard Cud-
walador , was successful in trying for goal ,
while Mull , who mode the attempt after the
Drown touchdowns , failed
In all but one
chance. It was a terrific shock ifor Yale to
sco Its line swept away by tlio Iirowns backs
after the manner In which Princeton found It
all holes last fall , but the medicine was swal
lowed with the hope that It will be bene
ficial.

The securing of a permanent Injunction
.gainst tlio laying of gas pipes In the city
was not much of a surprise tn tome of the
members of the city council. It has been
jontended all along by Councllmau Caldwell
ind some of his colleagues that the fran
chise of the Omaha Gas company was worth
less , and now n judge of the district court
U83 sustained thin opinion.
When the ordinance granting the fran-
shlae was being considered by the council
the question of locating the gas plant here
came up. Jim Gilbert , Bert Wllcox and Dan
Cameron , promatets of the South Omaha Gas
Light company to which the franchise was
granted , agreed that in case the ordinance
passed Its llnal reading and was signed by
' .ho mayor that the plant would be erected
In this city. Some of the councllnicn were
? . bit auspicious mid recommended that the
ordinance bo so amended , but the trio men-
tloncd above made Hiich supposedly sincere
promlara that the proposed amendment was
not inserted. The ordinance was passed and
In duo courue ot time it was signed by the j
mayor. Then came a notleo of assignment ito j i
j
to Frank Murphy and later from .Murphy to
iho Omaha fias company. I
About this time a Missouri gas company
opened negotiations for a franchise , but be-
roro tno proper oruiuaiicca L-UUIU uu UIUIK.-U
the project fell through , Tnio Missouri com
pany wanted a franchise similar to the one
granted the other company , but calling for
I plant In this city and a reduction of ! i
eentn In tlio maximum price to be charged
for yaa ,
A Krcat many citizens arc disappointed at
the slim prospect ot having gas here , but
3tlll tlmy feel that when a franchise is
granted that gas works should lie erected
in thU city. While the injunction is perma
nent it doin not prevent tlio gas company
from erecting a plant here. It IB not exi
peeled however , that this will be done.
Mayor Kraor will order the gas company to
nil Its trenches on N street at once and to
place tlio sticet in aa good condition as It
was before work commenced.
