FAMOUS ENGLISH
DRIVER ENTERS
OMAHA MEETING
Burr Lampkin, King of the Dirt
, , Track Pilots, to Tool Two
' ; ! Cars Here Next
: ,; Sunday.
Ten of the greatest dirt track stars
in the country will compete in the
eight auto racing events , at Benson
Park Sunday.
, R. Burr Lampkin, the world's dirt
dirt track sneed kinor. has filed entrv
and will participate in at least three j
of the free-for-all events. Lampkin
was the premier English dirt track
pilot before coming to America, hold
ing many records and having never
been defeated. He has met the class
of the American dirt track racing tal
ent and beaten such well known driv
ers as George Clark, Julius Ellinboe
Fred Horev. Wild Bill Endicott and
a score of others. Burr, in filing his Saratoga Association for the Im
entry. figures on the lion's share of . nrovement of the Breed of Horses
the purses, and will bring to Umaha ,
at least two of his SDeed creations.
' In his Benz Lampkin has the
world's fastest and highest powered
racing automobile. The Benz holds
a record of one mile, straight-away,
' with a flying start, of 25 1-5 seconds.
'This record was made on the salt
beds at Saltura, Utah, by Teddy Tetz
lafly and as it is conceded that the
beach' track at Ormond is from three
to five seconds faster than the salt
beds the claim that this car can at
tain the speed of 180 miles per -hour
is not without foundation.
' Drives Koamer, Too.
.' Lampkin will also bring with him
his Sun Ray Roamer, a car construct
ed especially for dirt track work. The
Roamer is motored with a 180-h .-e
powered high speed, 16-valve motor
and has shown a speed of 111 miles
per hour at the Sheepshead Bay
Speedway. Ttys is the same car
which he camnairned last season a id
with which he was enabled to estab
lish three world's records for the 15.
20 and 25-mile distances on one-half
mile tracks.
- Lampkin has a world of confidence
in his .mount and stands ready to
make a side bet of any amount up
to $1,000 that he can win over nr
entry but prefers Johnny Boyd and
his Packard, Cow Boy Epperson, with
his big Mercer or Chappie Dashbach
with the Richenbacher Maxwell.
Mogy Bernstein announces that he
at least has been successful in se
curing as an added event the original
American and English auto nolo
teams for a three-period exhibition
of the only sport too fast for the
movies." Auto polo has earned for it-
sell the strange name of motor m
sanity," which is about the best des
cription that could be applied.

CLASSIC OF TURF
SPORTS OPENS AT
SARATOGA TRACK
More Than 1,500 Thorough
breds Housed at Spa Pre
paratory to the August
New York Medting.
New York. July 30. (Special.)
President Richard T. Wilson of the
expects the meeting which opens at
Saratoga Thursday to exceed in bril
liance the race meeting of 1917, which
was notable in the annals of the fam
ous eastern course.
Already more than 1,500 thorough
breds from all parts of the United
States and Canada are housed at the
Spa and with the close of the Em
pire course fully 5UU more horses win
be added to the colony of aristo
crats. There has always been something
fascinating about the sport at Sara
toga. Nature intended it as a prov
ing ground for the best there is in
horseflesh and year after year the
pride of the country has foregathered
there under conditions unmatched
elsewhere.
This association was formed by
group of sportsmen, of which W. C.
Whitney was the head, and each year
has witnessed improvement in the ap
pointments of the course. The track
s in splendid shape, having been given
a coating of loam and retaining boards
keep the soil from washing and the
steeplechase course has been im
proved. Splendid roar's have been
laid everywhere, and the landscape
gardener s art has been employed
to mark the grounds with rose bushes
and flowering plants.
The race meeting ends August 31.
The Saratoga handicap, of course, is
one'of the leading stakes of the meet
ing, and such champions as Cudgel,
Omar Khayyam, the English thor
oughbred marvel; Westy Hogan,
Rancher and other stars will
compete for this premier offering.
Throughout the meeting the cards are
expected to draw the royal blood of
America ftnd many new records are
quite likely to be hung up.

THREE RACES IN
STRAIGHT HEATS
hn Spencer Takes 2:17 Trot,
After Jockey Squire Is Der
ricked at End o' the
Fifth Heat.
Columbus, O., July 30. Three of
the four races on the program of the
second day's Grand Circuit meeting
went in' straight heats to favorites,
but the first event on the card, the
2:17 trot, went seven heats before it
was decided and a strong arm had to
be employed on a driver before John
Spencer, who at one time sold for $5
in a ticket worth $100, went over the
winner. Squire at the end of the fifth
heat was derricked by the judges, and
C. A. Valentine substituted. He won
the next two heats and the race. The
judges awarded him $100 for driving
the race and held judgment on
Squire's case in abeyance until later
in the week.
June Red, winner every time out
this season, kept up her good work
by defeating a large field of 2:12
trotters in the S. and S. stake, purse
$5,000. The final heat, she made a
skip five feet from the wire, but the
heat was awarded to her from the
onrushing Royal Knight.
The Problem was a favorite in the
2:11 pace and was barred in the bet
ting. He won as he pleased for
Driver Murphy. Chestnut Peter low
ered his record to 2:05 1-4 in the
first heat of the 2:16 trot for three-ycar-okls
with Divorcee chasing him
out. The other miles were in good
time considering the high wind that

WHISTLES CALL
ON ALL TO STOP
MINUTE TO PRAY
Vocal Opposition Develops Be-
cause of Name More Than
for Any Other
Reason,
Opposition to the war angelus in
Omaha is characterized by those who
originated the movement here as
"narrov-mLced and fanatical."
The ai.gelus whistle blows every
morning at 11 o'clock, and it is the
signal for all patriotic people to
pause in their work ?.nd engage in a
moment of meditation and silent
prayer for the success of the allied
arms in the great war for democracy
and liberty.
"More things are wrought by
prayer than this world dreams of,"
said the great bard of Avon.
And it has long been the opinion
of wise men and godly men that the
united prayer of millions of people,
making their petition on behalf of a
righteous cause, will avail much in
bringing success to the fighting men
for whom they pray.
The Rotary clubs of the United
States are pushing the movement and
already in hundreds of cities and
towns the war angelus summons to
prayer every morning at 11 o'clock
by the blowing of a whistle or the
ringing of a bell.
Opposition Because of Name.
Local opposition to the war angelus
has developed because of the name
more than anything else. Practically
(everybody believe that such a uni
versal prayer is a good thing. The
name adopted is beautiful and has
pleasant associations in poem, song
and picture, but it is distinctively a
prayer of the Catholic church, a form
of devotion in which three Ave
Marias are repeated. This fact has
led many people to believe that it is
a sectarian movement.
Omaha Rotarians point out that
there was no opposition to the name
voiced at the international Rotary
club convention in Kansas City,
where the plan was unanimously
adopted. In that convention non
Catholics were vastly in the majority.
One of the most eloquent supporters
of the movement at the convention
was a Protestant clergyman.
The name, of course, has nothing
to do with the well known Catholic
prayer," said a Rotarian. "There is
no fixed form of prayer. Each indi
vidual is to spend one minute at 11
o'clock each morning praying in his
or her own way for the success of our
arms in the present struggle. It
might have been better to have called
the prayer by some other name, such
as 'Prayer of -Victory.' Rut we be
lieve that everybody will be big
enough to overlook this mere name
and enter into the cpirit of the univer
sal prayer.
Famous French Air Ace is
Cited for Legion of Honor
Paris, July 29. Lieutenant Neun
gesser, the second French ace, was
cited for the legion of honor today,
having brought down, according to

wounds and has been cited 15 times
and is created an officer of tKe Legion
of Honor for "his superb example of
courage."
Lieutenant Nuenaesser said: "I have
no ambition to become the ace of
aces. I simply brine down as many
Germans as possible."

SOUTH SIDE
INQUEST OF MAN
KILLED IN DUEL
TO BEHELD HERt
Sarpy and Douglas County Of
ficials Agree on Place of
Inquest Over Body of
Vencen Ogilara.
An inquest over the body of Vencen
Ogilara, a Mexican, who was shot
Sunday in Sarpy county by Jesus
Vellijo, his room mate, wiil be held
Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock at
the Heafy & Heafy undertaking
parlors, 4706 South Twenty-fourth
street. Although it appears that the
two went to Sarpy county to fight a
duel outside of ihe jurisdiction of the
Omaha pol.ee, complications have ap
peared which will be investigated at
the inquest.
Vellijo has disappeared and no
trace of him can be found. He has
no relatives in the jcity and friends
at his boarding house in A925!A South
Twenty-fifth street, say that all they
know of him is that he has lived here
for a few months.
Complication first arose after Ori'1
ara's death at the South Side hospital
Monday at 6 o'clock when the dispo
sition of the body and the place of the
inquest-seemed in doubt. Although the
murdered man died in Douglas
county, the crime occurred in Sarpy
county. After consulting the statutes
County Attorney Magney and E. S.
Mickerson, Sarpy county official, de
cided Tuesday morning that the in
quest should be held here and that
any prosecution should be held in
Sarpy county.
Although the dying man testified
through an interpreter to the South
Side police Sunday that the two had
gone to fight a duel, yet powder
marks on the dead man's clothing
show that the fatal shot was fired
within a few inches of him. The
wound was in the back slightly above
the hips. This is taken as an indica
tion of murder by police.
