Two-Year-Old Filly Trots a. Sensational Mile. With nothing In the race to make a contest, lengths in front of her only competitr, the two-year-old filly Prelatess of the Bitter Root farm stable, driven by Joe Rea, trotted a remarkable mile in and set a new mark for fillies in the Lexington stake, at Lexingtog yesterday. Incidentally she approached within one and a half seconds of the world's record of Janie of 2.14. made over the same track.

She was driven' out by Rea at the end and finished very tired. The fractional time was 0.33, 1.05%, L.39% and 2.15%. The fractions show In what a truly sensational manner the filly went to the half, but how she tired in the rae home. A surprise was sprung in the 2.18 trot, which was unfinished from Thursday. Coldnel Cochran, who had not won-a heat, was nosed out at the finish the first time around ysterday and afterward won the nesfi three heats easily.

The judges had take down Squires anid Geers was substituted, and in, view of the fact that Colonel Cochran could not win a -heat Thursday and was good yesterday the' race has a. queer look.

Ross Klosterman of the board of control National Cycling Association has sustamed the protest of Joseph 0. Bardroff against C. L. Bode for foul riding at the Coliseum track September 22, and has awarded Bardroff second prize. The alleged foul was in the final of the two-mile open, when Bode, it 14 claimed, struck B3ardroff, resulting in Bode finishing in second place and Bardroff being thrown out of the race.

Bardroff immediately filed a protest with the above result. Base Ball Notes. Manager Manning left for Detroit-yesterday to consult President Postal. He will return by Monday. The Washington club has one deal cu which will be an eye-opener if It goes through.

A number of western papers rece.t ty stated that Lou Criger was criticaily 111 his home at Elkhar, Ind. The backstop has contracted a mild attack of typhoid fever, but the attending physician declares that his condition was At no time serious and that he is on the road to recovery. Billy Hart, who ended the seasoa 'as an umpire In the American League, is of zhe opinion that there is no more promising player in the AmericAn than Outiielder Harvey of Cleveland. Harvey pitched -fr Chicago two years ago, but never amounted to much as a slab artist. Selee on quitting Boston handed out sume bitter remarks about the team.

He declared Fred Tenney to be in a class by himself it came to knocking. He. thought should be played for place also in the knockers' race. sIt is said- that sne reasoni the Ne17 Ycrk club wants to get rid of George Davis is becaiuse of his depressing effect on other members of the team, Without hing to lord it over them several of the men, who played medIocre bill this year are expected to show their true worth and play winning ball for the Giants. Jack Harper is now "claimed with confidence" by both the National and American League clubs In St.

Louis. Some of the pledges of the diamond heroes are not worth much. W. Aranour was mure he had Clarence Eugene Wright "sewed up'" for his Cleveland outfit, but Wright broke away and joined Brooklyn, aftEr all. Mike Kahoe is of the opinion that Frank Selee will manage the Chicago team nexst season.

"In spite of all this talk that iftus has been signed to manage the team next year." said Kahoe in Cincinatai see-' terday, "I amn pretty sure that is nothing in the story. Selee probably will have-charge or the teasm neat -year." The rumor shooters had It yesterday that Roy Patterson was being tackled hard by National League agents, would have a hard time tg resist temptation. Several National teams, among thein Jim have long wanted Pattirson, but Roy, looking on Comiskey as his uncle and preceptor, bas refused to listen.

I am talking from my own opinion, understand. -Cincinnati Enquirer. The Pirate president, Barney Dreyfus, is already loading up for the league meeting. He will urge an abolition of the sixteen-player rule. It wasn the of that limit that led to the release of Mike Kahoe.

a fortunate rule for bin', for Cincinnati's little backstop drew more money from Chicago than was paid catcher in the country. Cincinnati let Kahoe out and kept that ancient bariaaele, Amos Rusle, who proved to the satisfaction1 of all fandom that Andrew Freedman on.y gave him what was coming to- him. Dreyfuss argues that no such compulsory legn5lation as a limit law should enforced. Once during the season, after Cincinnati had released Charley Irwin, Reds two infielders in the hospitel--Ste nfeldt and Corcoran-yet according to the letter of the league law they were the Red1 roster. DR.

HANNAH LONGSHORE DEAD. Maryianderu Who Was Philadelphia's First Woman Physielam. A special dispatch to the Baltimore Sun from Philadelphia yesterday says: Dr. Hannah H. agrhore, the Airst woman to practice medicine in Philadelphia, died here today.

She was in her eighty-second year.Dr. Longshore was a native Marylander, having been born in Montgomery county, that state. May 39, 1819, and her parents were members of the Society of Friends. When fourteen years of age Dr. Longshore, who was then Miss Myers, and her parents removed to Ohio.

Miss Myers' great desire was to master the medical profession, but the many dificulties besetting her path rendered this a long and tedious undertaking. Her marriage on March 281, 1841, to Thomas E. Longshore of Philadelphia, caused an interruption to her life task. but six years later, when her younger child was four years old, she resumed the study of medicine. A cabinet of books, skeletons and preparations, the gift of her brother-in-law, Prof.

J. S. Longshore. aided her, and in due time she entered the Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania, then called the F. male Medical College.

and was one of the ten members of the first graduating class in 1851. Immediately after her graduation Dr. Longshore was elected demonstrator of anatorgy', serving in that position for two years, her "Lectures to Women" on medical subjects being a startling inno-, vation. In those first days the doctors refused to consult her because she was a woman. Druggists refused to fill her prescriptions.

A teacher in the public schools instructed her pupils not to walk on the streets with Miss Longshore, then a girl, because her mother was a doctor. To meet the oppoultion of the druggists Mrs. Longshore carried her own medicines, the plan pleasing her patients. She made such at success of her forty years of successful practice that she retired with a modest fortune. EtYATT5'SVILLE AND VICENWff.
