Defeated William Esstablishing a World’s Record—First Time Wi Has Been Beaten. Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 30.—Directum L the New York pacer, managed by Ray Spedelcer, this afternoon over the Co'umbus track, gave to Willlam the first defeaf this Indiana four-year-old has ever taken in a racing career of two seasons. To do so, the chestnut stallion was forced to pace the first mile in" 1.58 and the second in 2.00. The time of the first heat is the fast- est ever made in competition and the race stands as a world’s record. Be- fore today each horse had won a sec- ond heat in 2.00. The former record for one heat was 1.59 1-4, made two ‘weeks ago at Detroit by Frank Bo- gash, Jr. s It was over a hard track, the sort desired by Directum I handlers, that the race was run. William in the betting sold favorite at $100 to $50. After the first heat, the odds shifted to 2 to 1 on Directum I A 17 mile wind was blowing whén the first heat started, but its- velocity was much reduced,when the last was called. The -horses had to race against it on the back stretch. Directum I diew the. police and the pair got away on the first attempt. William took the lead forty yards from the starting mark. Two lengths ahead he reached the first quarter in 29 seconds and went on to the half in 59 1-4. He was leading comfortably when the three- uarter post was made in 1.30. At he last turn, Directum I was stirred up and the two pacers were on even terms when half the home stretch had been traversed. An instant later Driver Martin 8lapped Willlam with his ewhip. but his pacer did not re- spond well enouzh to ward off the rush of Directum I, ' who finished strong with his rival a full length behind. The last quarter was paced in 28 seconds. Separate timing had ‘Willlam'’s mile in 1.58 1-4. At the start of the second heat, William was rated slower and was kept beside Directum I until the first quarter had been passed. Then he stepped out and took the pole, his opponent dropping back a couple of lengths. The first quarter was done in 30 1-2 seconds and the half in 1.01- 3-4. On the far turn sprinting start- ed. Directum I steadily cut down ‘William’s lead, though the latter was ahead at the three-quarters in 1.32. There-was a terrific brush through the stretch, the final quarter being paced in 28 seconds, with Directum I hold- ing a neck lead. . L. Snow captured both class paces with the favorites, Jaystone and Lella Patchen. The former lost the first heat of the 2.09 event to Tillie Tipton, but took the next one in 2.04- '1-4. Nothing in the 2.15 field bothered Lelia Patchen. ‘With Brighton B, who in the sec- ond heat took a record of 2.05 1-2, T. W, Murphy won the Buckeye trot- ting stake. Margaret Druin, so heavy a favorite that she was barred from the betting, won the. first heat from Brighton B. by a head. and lost the next one to him by even a smaller margin. The last two finishes were not so close, the Cox mare being un- able to race clear through, ‘To Peter Volo, also of the Murphy stable, went the American Horse Breeders' Futurity for three-year-old trotters. Neither heat was a good workout. The winner's share amount- ed to $4,040. MICHIGAN.SHOWED GREAT SPEED AGAINST DEPAUW; Wolverine Men Worked Good Forward Passes and Trick Plays—Score 58 to 0, Ann Arbor, Mich., Sept. 30.—Disre- garding tradition by opening the sea- son with a whirlwind exhibition of open football, the University of Michi- gan eleven today won from Depauw 58 to 0. Although Coach Yost used many substitutes, the speed of the Wolverine machine never eslackened and Michigan's diversified attack made the visitors' defense seem weaker than it really was. For a few minutes during the first period Depauw stoutly opposed the {march of the Yost men. Then Michi- gan resorted to forward passes and trick playe, especially fake kicks,which Hughitt, quarterback, were the ) san stars. ichi- | Sachems vs. Emeralds, The fast Willimantic Emeralds are booked to appear Sunday at the Falls in the initial game of the series sched- uled with the Sachems.

It was further learned that he had given up his job and had recelved his pay amounting to nearly $15. The court told the man that it didn't look well for a man who had asked the court for a chance to do better to appear again and that if he did not mend his ways he would find himself in jail.

Gates of Willimantic wag nominated for sheriff of Windham county by republican delegates gath- ered in county convention at the mu- nicipal building here Wednesday. The choice was not made until three bal- lots had been taken, as five candi- dates were in the field and no one of them had a sufficient number of the 48 votes to be declared the nominee on the first two ballots. Senator Edwin H. Keach of Daniel- son was the strongest contestant against Mr. Gates for the homor on all three ballots, showing his greatest strencth on the Jast. The other can- didates were Deputy Sheriff L. H. Healey of Woodstock, Dewitt C. Park, a former deputy sheriff, Putnam; E. H. Lillibridge, Plainfield. The name of Deputy Sheriff John Fitts of Hamp- ton, who was declared a candidate a few days ago, was not presented to the convention. Oliver A. Hiscox of Woodstock, chairman of the county committee, called the convention to order at 12 oclock, and read the call. A. P. Woodward of the Killingly delega- tion nominated Senator Thomas O. Elliott of Pomfret for chalrman of the convention and he was selected by unanimous vote. Leon T. Wilson of Putnam was chosen clerk, Later Judge E. G. Wright of Putnam was named as_an assistant clerk. Judge Wright moved that the chair- man appoint a credentials committee by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf- ness, and that is by constitutional rem- edfes. Deafness is caused by an in- flamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness 1s the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube re- stored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of. the mucous surfaces, We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.

Graves, Windham, Deforest Wells, Brooklyn, The committee on resolutions select- was made up of Sabin S. Russell, Killingly, W. N. Bates, Thompson, An- drew C. Wiiliams, Pomfret. Sabin S. Russell moved that the balloting be by roll call, each man an- swering to his name and declaring his choice, and that nominating speeches be omitted. To the latter part of this proposal Attorney Charles A. Capen demurred, saying that he wished to be heard in the interest of one of the candidates and suggesting others might like the same privilege in behalf of other candidates. Mr. Capen’s sentiments were echoed b: Judge B. G. Wright of Putnam. Mr. Russell’s motion was amended so as to permit the speeches and the mo- tion for a roll call passed, A Woodward reported for the credentials committee, the report be- ing accepted by the convention. A Strong Candidate. The name of Mr. Gates was first presented to the convention. In nom- inating him Attorney Capen called the attention of the convention to the fact ‘that “this is the first time in the meA- ory of any of us here present when the republican party in Windham county is facing a possible defeat for the office of sheriff. This isn't a pleas- ant way to start talking, but we are not facing psychological conditions, but facts. If you name a candidate from the Twenty-eighth senatorial district is there anyone here Who does not believe that Mr. Fox, the democratic candidate will not poll as many votes or more than he di against the late Sheriff Sibley four vears ago?” Naming Mr. Gates, At- torney Capen said: “He has more friends than any man of my acquaint- ance. If you name him, he will carry the town of Windham and the county, too.” Other Nominations Made, William E. Davison, Putnam, in presenting the name of Dewitt C. Park as a candidate, agreed with At- torney Capen that this is a critical time with the republican party in Windham county and that it was ab- solutely necessary to name the strongest possible candidate if the of- fice of sheriff is to be wrested from the democratic party. On behalf of the Killingly delega- tion, Judge Russell nominated Sen- ator Keach, the presentation of his name being greeted with applause. Charles Bragg of Plainfield nom- inated E. H. Lillibridge of that town, saying that Plainfield was one of the staunchest republican towns in the county, is important industrially and was seeking the honor to be conferred by the convention. Mr. Lillibridge’s nomination was also greeted with ap- plause, The Roll Call. The convention thereupon proceed- ed to a ballot, the roll call being as follows: Ashford—E, N, Grant, Keach: Rob- ert Balch, Gates; Samuel L. Case, Gates: Herbert Brown, Keach. Eastford—H. B. Buéll, Healey; C. P. Latham, Healey. Killingly—A. P. Woodward, H. F. Glendining, Damase Bolias, Sabin S. Russell, all for Keach. Putnam—E. G._wright, Leon T. Wilson, John B. Daigle, W. E.

As 25 votes were necessary for a choice, the chairman declared no choice and ordered on motion from the floor another ballot. The Second Count. On the second ballot Buell of East- ford changed from Healey tc Keach and Latham of Eastford from Healey to Park. In the Canterbury delega- tion Davis swung from Keach to Gates. Keach got another vote from May of Pomfret, who was with Park on the first ballot. The result of this ballot was as follows: Gates 23, Keach 11, Healey 4, Park 5, Lillibridge 5. No choice. Third Brought Results. The third ballot quickly brought re- sults, for as soon as Woodstock was reached three of that town's delegates —Hiscox, Paine, Childi—swung_ to Gates from Healey and gave the Wil- limantic man a majority of the con- vention. His nomination was now assured, but when Plainfield was reached, the delegation there came solidly over to Keach, Mr. Gates pick- ing up another vote from Pomfret— that of W. R. May. The ressult of this final ballot was: Gates 27, Keach 16,.Park 5. Chairman Elliott declared Mr. Gates the choice of the conven- tion. Attorney Capen of Windham and W. E. Davison of Putnam were named a committee to escort Mr. Gates be- fore the convention. As he entered he was greeted by a burst of ap- plause. Judge Russell of Killingly had previously assured the gentlemen from Willimantic and the convention generally that Killingly republicans would be solidly for Mr. Gates. A like assurance for Putnam was given by Mr. Davison. Judge Russell had also, at the request of Senator Keach, he said, moved that Mr. Gates' nomina- tion be made unanimous, which had been done amid applause, Expects to Win. In his brief speech of acceptance of the nomination Mr. Gates thanked the members of the convention and said he was exceedingly gratified. *“I accept and I expect to win in No- vember,” he said. The sheriff's office is an important one and if I am hon- ored with election I will give my en- tire time to the duties of the office. In closing he invited the delegates to a dinner which they afterwards thor- oughly enjoyed at the Putnam Inn. Oliver A. Hiscox of Woodstock, Louis Hall of Windham and J. B. Stetson of Brooklyn were reelected county committee. Resolutions Adopted, Just previous to adjournment the convention adopted the following res- olutions: Resolved, by the republican dele- gates for Windham county in‘conven- tion assembled, that said conventlon reaffirms its faith in the principles of the republican party, believing that its policy of a tariff for protection of American_industry is best suited for the conditions existing in these Unted States, and if put in force would restore prosperity in business, give permanent employment to labor, there- by making a market for the fruits of industry ufisurpassed in the history of_the world. We heartily endorse the several candidates nominated at the republi- can state convention as being men worthy the support of all thinking men. ‘We commend to the voters of Wind- ham county Charles A. Gates of Wind- ham, whom this day we have nom- inated for sheriff as a man of hon- esty, ability and integrity, a lifelong republican and entitled to your sup- port.
