NANCY HANKS IS QUEEN NOW Gallant Little Kentucky Mare fmashzs the Great Mand 8 Record, NEW MARK FOR THE TROTTING HORSES One and a Half Seconds Cat O the Time for A Mile—Wondertul Exhibition Given at Washington Park Yester- day Afte Cuioaco, Til., Aug. 17.--Mavd S is no lonper queen of the trotting turf. The proud vosition which the daughter of Harola has held so long has been wrested from her, and Nancy Hauks roigns in her stead. Tois afternoon at Washington Park, in the presence of 10,000 spactators, Buad Doble drove his beautiful mare to veat her record of 2:09. She not only beat her own record, But lowered the world's trotting record from 2:08%{, the time of Maud S, 10 2:0714. The day was an ideal yne for trotting, the sun shining warmly, hardly a cloud in the sky anda cool, gentlo breeze blowing off Lake Michigan directly down the home strotoh, The track was a trifle dusty in places, but as fast as it could well be. The mare was in excellent coudition, fit to trot for wman’s life, and before she made the trial {v wus the general opinion that if Nuncy Hanks was ever to equal her record of 2:00, Washinglon park track aiid today were tho place and timetodoit. Kveryihing was auspi cious, thero was nothing to prevent the mare from doing her best, and 1v rested alone with hor and Doble how fur the record was to be lowered. ey Pat no Frills, Sho appeared for tho trial with Budd Dobte bohind her at 5 o'clock. She was without boots or trappings of any sort, and was hitched to one of the new sulkies with ball bearings and pnoumatic tires. Doble walked her slowly to tho hoad of the lower turn and then came back to the wiro at a gentie puce. Doble drove her back to the sixteenth polo and then came down at a smashing gait. Frank Starr, bohind the pacemaker, Abe Lincoln, was waiting for him. Startor Walker leaned far over the railing of the juiges’ stand, his cyes on Doble’s face, watchiug to see if he wanted the word. Just as tho maro shot beneath the wire Doblo shook his nead. Mr. Walker drew back and Abe pulled upto await a second trial. Back 1o the distance flag this time and at a gentls trot which increased rapidly as she drow near tho wire, & nod from Doble. and *Go"” flashed from Walkor’s lips as the mare shot like an arrow toward the turn, “There was work for Abo Lincolu now, and for the first sixteenth of a milo he lost round steadily. Then Starr urged him on and he was on Nancy's wheel ut the quarter, There was not a sound in the densely packed grand stand s the mure flow past tho quarter pole in 3114, a 2:( gait. As she started aloug the buck stretch trotting as true asa die, head well up, her fool strik- ing the ground with the regularity of a pendulum, the crowd began to murmur: he'll never do it; never in the world;" but the oldtimers outlined Doble's gray jncket against the bickor fence bevond him, and as he passed them so rapialy that they seemed to be going backward, they held their broatns and said nothing, They knew thut the record was going. Fastest Trotting Ever Watched. As the mare, still keening up her beantiful gait went by the hLalf-mile pole in 1:03%7, a wan in front of the grand stand called, 1 :04 at the half,” a mighty yell went up from the crowd. ' “Keep quiet as sho finishes,” shouted Starter Walker, but his warning was not needed. The crowd had subsided of its own accord. Its own breathless interest 1n the event kept it quiet. Not a sound was heard as sho moved past the throe-quarter ole and turned into the home streten. Abe incolii “under the whip moved up to Nanoy'’s throat latch, Doble spoke gently o her and her feet flew faster than the eye could distinguish them, *She’ll do it; she'll do it, by God,” yellea an irrepressible and there was a faint yell as tho fastest quartet of pattering hoois ever beard on atrotting track swept under the wire. Thore was & moment's pause, a hasty consultation of watches, and then an um- breila went sailing wto the air from near the grand stand. It was accompanied by loud- lunged howls and thon bedlam broke loose. Hats, canes and coats were tossed wildly into the air. Men slapped oach other on the back and shook hands with other in sheer delight. Incidentally, they kept on yelling' Cheered Horse and Driver, ‘The loud cheers which went up told Doble, even before he had slowed up, that the rec- ord was broken, and as he came vack to the Judges’ stand bis face was covered with a smile as wide as the visor of his cap. He nad said that Nancy Hanks would beat the record and she nad doune it. As he dis- mounted from his sulky he was surcounded by men who wrung his taud again aod again, When he bad a chance to use a hand he lifted is cap in_acknowledgomont of the cheers of the crowd. Loud calls for “Doble, Doble,” went up and the veteran reinsman, climbing into the grand stand, again re- moved his cap from the head which holds so much knowleage concerning trotters and bowed repeatedly to the wild applause that groeeted him, *Three chears for Nancy Hanks!" shouted Starter Walker, and they came from 10,000 throats with wild enthusinsm. **Now threo cheers for the man who drove her!" and again the air was shiverea and hats, oonts, handierchiofs and ubout every- thing else that could be thrown upward were seut in that direction. 1t was fully ten win- utes before the tumult subsided, Four Lightning Quurt The official time for the mile, which was as honest amile as was ever trotted, s 31k 1:088¢, 1:8014, 2:0714 ‘The last quarter was trottea in thirty and throe-quarters seconds. ‘The exhibition wi given for a certain sum to be paid by the Northwestern Broeders association, under whose direction tho trotting meeting 1s heing hold. An- additional sum was to be paid if the record was beaten, but Doble declined to say what it was. He' waxed enthusiastic in “spoaktog of bis muro ufter tho beat was over, 18, in my opinion,” ho said, *‘without Apoer on the Lrotting turf. 5he was not 7 distressed in the slightest degres at the end of thamile and finished fresh and strong. Within twenty minutes after trotting tnat 1oile in 2:071( she could have kone out and trotted very close to it. Idon'v say she .. €ould have equaled i1, but she could have VUL in a very fast mile without very much * trouble. §ho trotted true from wire to wire, never lost her head and did not show the slightest inclination to leavo her feet. I did Mok touch ber once with the whip, and enly swished it through tho air a little and spok's 10 her quietly as she entored tho home- “siretoh. { will nou start her again hore, but T have every reason to bolieve that she will make her present record a back number by tho tiwe suow flies.

M. Wilson, tue in spector of permanent sidewalks, appointed by Mayor Bomis, was tho man who was put upon the spit, It was at a mooting of the Board of Public Works, and after the body had bsen callod to order Major Balcombe took oceasion to say that ho haa fuvited Mr. Wilson to be present as he wanted to make u fow romarks which would interest him.

He had taken it upon bimself to not only investigate the Boavd of Public Works, but tho engineer aua other city officials as well. Instead of eing out on the work, Mr. Wilson haa sat around the eity offices telling oficials what were their rospective duties. One thing, the major said was certaln, and that was, if | Mr. Wilsou coutd not find anything to do in | the way of looking after sidewnlks that — wero supposed to be under his jurisdiction, bis services might bettor bo aispensed with, Mr, Wilson wanted to talk and define his position as hie understood it, but was told that there was nothing for him to say; that it was a quiot little talk amony tho mombers in which outsiders had no interest. Chairman Birkhauser saud that he under 5to0d that Wilson’s duty was to report ever thiug that ho found wrong in the way of the lnying of privato walks, but ho aid not un- derstund that bis authority extended to the investigation of officials or their duties. Mr. Wilson's Story. Mr. Wilson wanted to reply, but could not get the consent of tho buard and was com pelied to take his roast in silence. He wns decidedly warm under the collar after the meeting, und madea statement 1o a reporter of T Bick: which is not at allflattering to the officers of the board, and whioh, if true, in- dicates that the business of tho board is in & bad wav, “1 want to answer tho chargos madoe by Major Balcombe,” said Me. Wilson, “And 1t to make it very pluin, so that the tax payers may see just’ what the differenco 1s over which so much fuss has been made and let them judge who is vight, In the first place Majos Balcombe suid I was putting 1 m time suooping uround city ofices und telling theofficials how they should run thewr busi- ness.
