RACING EVENTS
AND RESULTS.
Lehman’s Mare Loses to Car
roll’s Old Veteran
Trotter.
MANY WERE OUT TO WITNESS
The Carroll Horse Won Each Heat and Also
a Subsequent Race Arranged on
the Ground.
There was a steady movement of
crowded vehicles, bicyclists and pe
destrians to the E street boulevard
between 3 and 4 o’clock yesterday
afternoon. The much-discussed trott
ing race was the attraction.
There were as many as 400 people on
the scene when Judge John Lehman,
perched on bis red sulky and driving
his pretty mare, and L. V. Carroll,
with his good-looking trotter, drew
up at the starting line,
Mr. H. H. Harvey was starter,
Messrs. Charles Morris, William An
derson and Kobert Bneseniok were
the judges, and Mr. J. M. Calnan was
stakeholder.
The program was for the best two
out of three half-mile beats, measured
off on the shell track. The purse was
SSO, with a large number of side-bets.
The crowd was mainly a betting one.
Many wagers, for both small and large
amounts, were made. Carroll’s horse
was the favorite in the betting.
No time was taken, the road being
rather rough, and it was agreed to
judge the race purtly from distance.
The first heat was won by Carroll,
who crossed the line thirty feet ahead
of Lehman’s mare. It was evident at
this time that the former horse bad all
the advantage of movement and train
ing. Lehman’s mare "broke” badly
and did not move at all freely.
Ten minutes were allowed between
each heat, and by the time the second
was started the crowd had consider
ably increased.
In this heat Carroll’s horse im
proved. winning this time by forty
feet. in this trot Lehman’s mare
stumbled and broke her check rein.
'This settled the race, as subsequent
ly arranged, and Stakeholder Calnan
paid over the S6O purse to Carroll.
Many of the “horsey” people who
had watched the race expressed the
opinion that Carroll’s horse was about
“played out,” and that Lehman would
run in another heat. Judge Lehman
offered a wager of $25 to sls that his
horse could win in another heat, Car
roll to give him fifty yards at the fln
ish. The wager v.=s accepted, and
the agreement made
In ttiis race, Judge Lehman’s horse
had many backers. The start was a
pretty one, but the winner of the pre
vious heats soon left the judge’s horse
behind, winning by at least 100 yards.
The losing trotter continued her old
tactics, “broke” frequently and did
not travel with ease and alacrity.
This ended the afternoon’s sport.
If was made evident that, though
Judge Lehman’*) mare was the supe
rior animal, she was in need of train
ing for a trotting race. The Carroll
horse is said to be an old racer.
It was also evident that Judge Leh
man could not control his horse and
was also a little too heavy to allow
the animal to do her best.
Judge Lehman offers a wager of
SIOO that his horse can defeat another
of McCrary’s, and there is a probabil
ity that another race will be arranged
for an early date.
