' ONE HEAT 10 GO IN CLASSY RACE 2.35 Class Could Not Settle a Winner Before Dark And Must Run Heat To-day. So intense was the competiiion in the races at the Kingston Industrial exhibition on Friday afternoon that the 2.35 class had to be carried over and will be finished up at one o'clock this afternoon. It had five entries, and In almost every heat three or four horses came down the stretch bunched at the finish and fighting every inch of the way. Maude E. II, owned by C. Wright, of Gananoque, took the first two heats. In the third and fourth the slight little Pauline, owned by Louis Martin and driven by B. McKane, took first place and in the fourth heat Billy Murphy, owned and driven by C. Randall, Napanee, challenged Paul- ine and lost out by a head for first, taking a second on the three thirds already registered. Randall and Mec- Kane wanted to finish out the race while their horses were warm and going but the other drivers wished to wait until Saturday. The judges estimated that they could not dis- tinguish horses on the far side of the track and decided against finish- ing the race, ordering it to be finish- ed to-day at one o'clock. The heats were: 2.85 Class. Maude E. II, C. Wright, Gananoque 1 Pauline, Louis Martin, Kingston Billy Murphy, Napanee Victoria Patch, C.

There were six entries and it was necessary to warn the drivers re- peatedly to get them started away. Each man jockeyed for position at the getaway and much tive was spent on the race needlessly. Goldie, J. Seguin, Kingston, took three first heats, with Miss Penalty, C. Randall, Napanee, second in two and Lhird in the other for second money. The heats were: Named Race. Goldie, J.

Stover, The Riding School of the R.M.C. put on another splendid entertain- ment of tent-pegging, stunt jumping and general horsemanship in front of the Grand Stand and it was loudly applauded. With the handicap of no suitable facilities a broad jump and a high jump were put on. ' In the first event Sergt.-Major Clarke won with a jump of sixteen feet eleven inches. The facilities were so poor it was farcical and decidedly risky for the jumpers. In the second event competition was a little better, finally being won by 8 Mr. Hermiston with a mark of four feet ten inches. On the grounds that it was announced as an open com- petition to all a stranger from the crowd sought to enter while the mark was still fairly low hut would not be allowed to do so by Harry Haunts, who was in charge of these two events. The stranger voiced his indignation to Mr. Haunts but made no further fuss about it. [ To-Day | Suggs 3 This afternoon the 4th Hussars catch the two o'clock ferry and hie themselves to Wolfe Island, chesten- ed outwardly but full of pep inward- ly and determined to show the island nine that their victory on the cricket field on Thursday was a fortunate cne and not likely to be repeated, Over on the island they think they can do the trick again. The game itself will decide for sure. A meeting of the Hussars players was held last night and a vote of confidence and loyalty expressed in Manager Hartrick and Captain "Sammy'* Hall.

One of the big reasons for the failure of the Detroit club to make a better showing this year is due to the batting slump experienced hy Harry Heilmann, champion swatter of 1923. Hellmann all season has been about 50 points off form and has had the habit of hitting into double plays when a base hit meant the ball game. Schalk"s Record Stopped.. Ray Schalk"s great record for catching 100 or more games each season is soon to pass into the dis- card. Schalk for 10 consecu- 'tive years has performed in 100 Or more games every year for the White Sox. Numerous injuries this season made it impossible to come through. He had hoped to stretch the record to 12 years. - CLUB - 212 PRINCESS ST. ~ THE DAILY G a RITISH WHIG GENERAL ¥ Ba a a -- 1 | | EVERIT . British Columbia Fir Doors are becom- ing very'popular.

(Contributed.) When Johnny Dundee lost to Jack Bernstein this week, the fans at the ringside saw the passing of a grand little fighter; a fighter who has only visited dreamland once in the course of over 300 battles. That once was when Willie Jackson, a durable, hard-hitting New York lightweight, put Johnny to sleep for mearly half an hour with a terrific right cross tc the jaw in the first round of their fight in Philadelphia, Jan. 15th, 1917. The little Italian has never been knocked out before or since. Dundee, whose real name Is Jos- eph Carrora, was born in Sharkat, Italy, on Nov. 22nd, 1893. In spite of the fact that he lacked a K.O. Punch, Dundee, by reason of his cleverness, rose to be one of the greatest mitt slingers in the game. When Jackson stopped him it was generally stated that Johnny was on the down grade The "Scotch Wop" fooled the wise guys and later won two world championships, namely, the feather and junior lightweight titles, During his career Johnny has knocked out Danny Frush, crack English featherweight, and beaten Charlie White, Pepper Martin, Yene Delmont, Elino Flores, Jack Ber- stein, Eugene Criqui and a host of others Every boxing fan remembers the awful lacing that Dundee admin- istered to Eugene Crigui on July 26th, 1923, when he won the feath- srweight title from the game French- man. * . And now Dundee's career is over. Not that I believe he will retire from the ring. . Boxer's seldom do. But Johnny will go on losing again and agein, occasionally showing a flash of his old-time form and winning a few matches, 'then losing another string. A boxer of this type is known as a Fighting Fool. These fighting fools know that they cannot regain their tities, but the ure of the ring invariably compels them to don the gloves "just once more." Boxers were ever thus. OIRCLE-SIX READY. All Set for Monday's Big Rat/le in + Bell The Circle-Six youngsters are all set for their big gaitle with Petér- boro Lakeviews in Beilevil'e on Monday.

This has been one of his best years. He won on his merits. Now if Johnson could get a whirl at the big series, it would be the end of a perfect season.

No player on the ball field can make enemies more quickly than the pitcher. He is in a position to do | many things. It is the pitcher who humbles the batter by making him pop .up or sirike out in a pinch. Very often the batter doesn't approve of the tactics used to bring about hfs dis- comfiture. athieus SYrUP oF TAR In the 20 years I have been um- piring major league ball. Walter Johnson stands out as the speediest of all pitchers I have ever seen In action. Opposing batters do not relish fac ing a pitcher with great gpeed. If the pitcher happens to be a trifle wild it makes the situation all the more unpleasant. While Johnson has always been one of the most effective pitchers in the game, largely because of his fast ball, he could have made himself al- most unhitable had he cared to re- sort to unsportsmaniike tactics.
