i \ . DEAR, im et COURSING RACES END IN DISPUTE Owner of Grace Rockwell Objects to Award of Victory to Kil- larney Girl in Final Event. BIG CROWD ATTENDS MEET The coursing meet at the Douglas | county fair grounds Sunday afternoon | ended in & large dispute. { The final round was a race between | Grace Rockwell, owned by Flack and | Life, and Killarney Girl, owned by Ste- | vens and Page. The judge awarded the race to Killar- | ney Girl, eight points to seven. The owners of Graco Rockwell entered a few strenuous objcctions and an argument ensued between judge and owner. At this point the committee in tharge of the meet took a hand. The committee calleq the score scven and seven, and announced that the race would be run again this afternoon at 2:30. This was acceptable to the owners of Grace Rock- well, but whether the owners of Killar- ney Girl will accede is something else again. The committee asserted its right to overrule the decision of the judge, but most of the coursing men entered in the meet declared a judge's ruling shall stand as final. Killarney Girl Takes Lead. At the start of the race Grace Rock- well and Killarney Girl ran neck-and- neck until the rabbit was reached. Here Killarney Girl forged a bit to the head and forced the rabbit to take its first turn. Killarney Girl led for several turns; then suddenly Grace Rockwell passed her opponent and pounced down upon the rab- bit and made the kill. The owner of Grace Rockwell insis ' that just before Grace Rockwell took lead the. judge called the score six aud | five. Then Grace Rockwell turned the rabbit and made the kill, which, the owners maintained, gave the race to her. Big Crowd Attends. A big crowd was out for the coursing vesterday and took a lively Interest in the sport. The meet started at 2 o'clock and was not over until 5:30. Most of the crowd stayed, despite the fact that it got very dark toward the end. When the Grace Rockwell-Killarney Girl race was staged, it was difficult to see the hounds, let alone the fleeing rabbit. Sixteen dogs were entered yesterday. The big surprise bf the day was the de- t of Mr. Cannon, owned by William Flack of Grand Island, in the very first eat. Mr. Cannon has the reputation of Veing one of the best coursing hounds in the country, What's His Name, owned by Andrews and Pease, was the dog which put Mr., Cannon out of the run- ning.
