Herald, was declared but early In ihe day, leaving Mary Stone and Lauret to run against a high class animal. When the flag fell Lauret took the lead and continued there till the turn Into the atretch, where she was passed by Mary Stone. In the last sixteenth Charade came ud under the whip and beat them both out. Mary Duke was the favorite In the opening.race and won. Jerwey Belle was the choice Ip the second rice, with Half Mine second, but she could do no better than second, while Half Mine won. with Wllmar sec ond.

T. J. Carling and K. 6. Collins on one side and Cook Clayton, Joe and Henry Napier on the other, and for a few minutes it looked like everybody on the street was fight ing. / -* *, The origin of the difficulty was on Wednesday afternoon at Ocmulg^e Park, when Mr. Carling arrested Mr. Cook Cluytbn for riding hla bicycle In tine pavitlion, and after bringing him on me car to the power house turned him over to a negro policeman with in struction* to lock him up. At the recorder’* 'court yesterday morning Mr. Clayton acquitted of disorderly conduct, which was the charge preferred against him, and af terward he, in company with Messrs. Joe and Henry Napier and S. A. Crump, awaited Mr. Carling on Hoge's corner. When Mr. Carling came along with Mr. CollIns, Mtu Crump stepped out in front of him and said to Messrs NapJer and Clayton: "Here’s the v whip him/' Mr. Carling stepped 'back, and throwing himself In a defensive attitude said: "Come on." In another moment Messrs. Napier and Clayton sprang <a& him, while Mr. Crump sfocal to one side. (Mr. Collins tfcuw tne attack being made on Mr. Car ling and grabbed Mr. Joe Napier, anu the croWd separated Messrs. Henry Napier and Cook Clayton raining blows on Mr. Carting, while Mr. Joe Napier und Mr. Collins had a set'to. After a few blows had passed, Mr. Henry Na pier saw hla brother and Mr. Collins light and left Mr. Carling to assist his brother. At this Juncture Alderman Van ran up, presumably for the pur pose of separating Mr. Carling and Mr. Clayton, out Mr. Crump caught him and warned him to keep away. Other* interfered finally«ind the bel ligerents were aeparated. After the fighters were aeparated it was found that Messrs. Carting and Collins were bleeding profusely from injuries about the face and Mr. Van had in some manner been cut on the hand Neither Mr. Clayton or the Na- pp- /ere injured. Mr. D. B. Wood- run:, who was not Interested in the fight, was In some manner knocked down .tout not hurt. Chief Butner arrived on the scene about the time the fighting was over and summoned all 'parties -before the re corder this morning. Alter the difficulty a Telegraph te- portcr sought Mr. Crump and also talked with the Messrs. Napier, and their statement of the affair Is in effect that Messrs. Clayton and Napier rode their bicycles to Ocmulgee park on Wednesday afternoon tb witness the free performance to be given there. On their arrival they started Into the pn- villhm with their bicycle.-*, but were told- by a negro woman, who said she was in charge of the pavllllon, that bi cycle* were nbt allowed In the pavll llon. Messrs. Napier dismounted, but carried their bicycle* into the pavllllon and placed them to one side out of the way. Mr. Clayton rode hlB bicycle Into tho pavllllon, but sttopped when half ■way across and carried his wheel to one side where those of the Messrs. Napier had been placed. The negro woman who had at first remonstrated said no mt^re, but sent for Mr. Carling, who arrived later and asked the young men who*had been riding bicycles In the pavllllon. They replied they had not, wherqppon Mr. Carling said they had and threat ened to throw their wheels out Thar defied hlnj to do 8b nnd wordB followed, after which Mr. Carling called the con ductor and motormun of a car and In- strutted them to put the bicycles on the car. They did so and the young men followed. On the car Mr. Carling *told them they were under arrest, as he as alderman had the right to arrest them. Mr. Clayton questioned his authority and Mr. Carling called him a liar und offered to get off the car and fflght It out, telling Mr. Clayton that he (Clay ton) wft* a young man ahtl the (Carling) was nn old man. Mr. Clayton declined to fight and the car came on to the power house, where Mr. Carling had it stopped and took the bicycles off, tell ing the young men to get off, which they did. He then told one of his em ployes to go for a policeman and the employe soon returned with Gordon, a negro policeman, whom Mr. Carling In structed to lock Mr. Clayton up, he hav ing previously lold the Messrs. Napier that he would make no case against them. Gordon asked permission to sum mon Mr. Clayton instead of locking him up, but Mr. Carling said no. Gordon, however, brought Mr. Clayton to tie office of Mr. Crump, who accompanied them to tho police station and put up collateral for Mr. Clayton’* appearance. Last night Mr. Carling was seen nod asked for his side pf the question. Mr. Carling said that all he had to say was that he did not send for the negro po liceman. but told the man who went for a policeman to get a policeman and that he never for a moment thought who the policeman would be. When Gordon arrived he was mad and never noticed whether he was white or black ami he never for one'inoment thought of helping on Mr. Clayton the Indignity of being arrested by a negro policeman and that he had s»o eta ted openly In the recorder's court. Had he given the mat ter a second's thought he would not have let Gordon arrest him. In regard to the fight on the corner Mr. Curling laughingly said he knew nothing of it, oa the first thing he knev several Of them were pounding on him. He said he regretted that he did not take time to think of the policeman being rt ne gro, but that he bellaved any other man would have acted like he did under sim ilar circumstances. Roth Msssrs. Carling and Collins treated the fight very lightly and laughed heartily when telling about it Neither of them harbored any 111 will toward the young men, .md in fact com plimented them on their fighting quali ties. Mr. Crump says it was an outsider who struck Mr. Collin* the first blow, but he did not give the outsider’s name. No one seems to knbw how Mr. Van got cut. as the only knife In the crowd was a broken pocket knife in the pocket of Mr. Joe Napier, which he had been using a* a screwdriver Cor his bicycle and which he says he never thought t>f drawing. He gladly surrendered It to Chief Butner when asked for it.
