The program was the Jority best offered during the meeting. There were three stakes and two handicaps on the card and the club added $3,400 to the seven races. The fields in several of the events, principally the stakes, were reduced by withdrawals, the Derby Gold Cup suffering most in this regard.

only two of the five going to the post. For some rea1 son the Canadian-bred colt Ondramon was made a 3-to-5 favorite over The Rump, who had won two races and was beaten a head in another at Blue Bonnetts. When it came to the running, however, there was only one horse in it. The Rump racing under stout restraint all the way and winning pulled up. The Hendrie Memorial Handicap steeplechase, which called for a journey over the three-mile course, went to Wickson, who won 'easily after making most of the pace.

Bello pulled up very lame, while Jack Dennerlen, the other starter, boited around one of the wings at the eighteenth jump, but was taken back and finished the course. Champion Stakes was won by the maiden Henry Ritte, who won easily from the 1-to2 favorite Rifle Brigade. The latter was a keen factor until well into the homestretch, where he quit and the end and just lasted long enough to beat Mediator out a head. Judge F. J.

The race meet given by the Cincinnati Automobile Club at the Latonia track yesterday afternoon was witnessed by about 5,000 people and only one serious accident occurred to mar the pleasure of of the spectators.

No records were broken In any of the events. Despite the heavy rains the track was put in splendid condition for the races and that Nickles was injured was not due to any flaw in the course or defect in his machine. The poor fellow became exhausted and in attempting to steady his car crashed into the fence on the clubhouse turn tearing down about 8 half dozen posts and landing in the middle of the track.

All of mishaps, blowouts and breaka downs occurred in almost the same spot-the clubhouse turn. Not that the track was soft or unfit for speeding, but because the turn is a bad one for speeding machines and it takes a man's best brand of nerve to go around it without shutting off his engine. Here is little human interest story told by one of the spectators taking a picture of the cars when Nickles tore through the fence: "In my mind, the accident which wrecked Nick's car was due to the poor fellow becoming exhausted. He attracted my attention when on about the fortieth lap. I noticed that he was awful Weak in making the turn.

He seemed to be losing his nerve or strength. As he came around the corner when the accident occurred he threw up his hands as if about to faint. The car swerved, a tire bursted, then it tore up a couple of posts, turned turtle. with Nick partially under it and the mechanician thrown clear of the course, The crowd standing near the rail let out a shout of horror: women acted as if they wanted to faint and all was excitement. Then one of those men who is equal to any occasion grabbed another of the same stripe by the elbow and yelled, 'Get those poor fellows off the His command was obeyed in an Instant.

A half hundred huskies dragged the injured racers on the inside of the track and into Radel's ambulance. They were carried to the emergency hospital, where Dr. Louis Colter, the official physician of the Auto Club, and Dr. Carl Crisley, police surgeon of the Cincinnati Department, attended to their injuries. Nickles was the most badly injured.

'What happened, my Even the nurses shed tears when they saw the game fellow try to act as If was feeling better than any man on the course." Was a Valuable Car. The car which Nickles was driving when the accident happened was a complete wreck.

It was valued at $17,000 having been imported from Italy. It cost $1,200 duty to bring the machine to this country. This is the same speed monster that Teddy Tetzlaff drove at Los Angeles in atwenty-hour ace when he made a world's record. The car is really too big for a dirt track Nickles one of the most popular drivers in America. He hails from Cambridge Springs, He is a big go lad, and as game as can be found.

Indeed none but a man with iron nerve would have attempted to drive the car around a track like Latonia. At a late hour last night Nickles was reported to be in a serious condition. complications having developed after being received at the Christ Hospital. The automatic timing was great, the Warner electric system being used. Dr.

Charles Bonifeld. President of the Auto Club of Cincinnati. was official referee. H. F.

Fulton started the races in splendid fashion after a delay of about an hour before calling the first Alight to the post in the opening scramble. Harry Leman made a big hit by parking 100 Buick cars in the center field opposite the grand stand, and providing the occupants of the machines with food and refreshments. Harry was also very active attending to various duties about the track. The gate receipts will amount to about $5,000. After expenses are paid the money will be turned into the fund maintained by the Auto Club for the annual parade and outing given to the orphans of tihs city every year.

SWIMMING RECORDS Are Set Up Through the Use Of New Strokes. SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE ENQUIRER. New York, September is no doubt that the several new swimming strokes which have been devised in the last few years are accountable for the number of swimming records that have been broken. The crawl and its variations have made big inroads into the time for various swims. Records holders have learned to use these strokes, while still little more than youngsters in most in stances, and they have improved upon them until the time made by the use of the old breast stroke and the overhand stroke had to give way just as the improvement in automobile engines and motorcycle engines has accounted for the record making In these branches of sport.

A glance over the records holders and the title holders of the last two decades disclosed to view two swimmers who stand out head and shoulders above the rest, one in England and the other in the united States. From 1894 to 1897 J. B. Tyres, the great English swimmer, held every British record championship from 100 yards to the mile, while in our country C. M.

Daniels maintained the same high standard during the reign as peer of all swimmers in this country, being unbeatable from 1904 until his retirement. Although there were swimmers who might have been slightly faster at some one distance than these two wonders, it can safely be said that for all-around speed swimming they were in a class by themselves, all distances looking alike to them, each holding the sprint records and the distance marks. Tyres's records compared with the times made by the best swimmers of to-day seem slow, but when it is considered that they were made with the trudgeon stroke, which has been generally abandoned for spied swimming the world over by latter-day swimmers, they appear all the more remarkable. C. M.

Daniels in the early part of his rac- WINCHESTER "LEADER" AND "REPEATER" SMOKELESS POWDER SHELLS No matter whether your favorite sport is the field, Winchester fullest wild measure loaded fowl of shells or shooting trap will give shooting, satisfac- you tion. No shells will make a good shot out of a poor one, but shells that are loaded so that they are uniform in velocity, spread the shot evenly, and give good penetration help wonderfully to make good bags in field or marsh and scores at the traps. Winchester shells embody all these important elements. 'BE SURE AND GET THE BRAND way. ing career used the trudgeon stroke clusively, and even after he had acquired the then new crawl used the trudgeon for all swimming over the two hundred and twenty yards.

It was not, however, until he took to the crawl seriously that he broke down the existing American records and a number of world's records. The minute mark for the 100 yards was for many years the zenith of every speed swimmer's ambition. Many tried, but few. attained this coveted speed. In the last few years we have become 80 accustomed to witnessing this point passed by our best swimmers that we are apt to become careless in our speech and speak of the minute for the hundred a8 an easy thing to accomplish.

But such is far from the case. Indeed. it was not until 1902 that the 100 yards was swam in less than a minute. It remained for V. C.

Lane, an Australian, to break a record that had stood for years. Lane. swimming the Australian crawl, reduced this time to 59 3-5 seconds. From 1902 up to the present year every championship meeting, with few exceptions, has brought forth a new record for this distance. In 1903 Zoltan de Holmay, the great Austrian swimmer, further reduced the time to 59 seconds flat.

The time for the century was again brought down by Daniels in 1907 to 58 3-5 seconds. In 1908 occurred the most remarkable reduction of this oft broken record, when C. M. Daniels, swimming against the world's best speed swimmers at Manchester, England, established the unthought-of time of 55 2-5 seconds. This stood without being approached the last Olympic games at record, one who is considered the peer of all speed Stockholm brought to the public's attention swimmers.

Attacks on Hogan's Ruling Anent Saloon Licenses Are Proposed. SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE ENQUIRER. Columbus, Ohio, September 13-Proposed attacks on the rulings of Attorney-General T.

S. Hogan on the legality of breweries owning saloon premises give promise of verifying his claim that the adoption of constitutional changes will bring an "Augustan era" for lawyers. Superintendent Wayne B. Wheeler the Anti-Saloon League, is out with the statement that an early Court test will be made. He contends that the constitutional amendment contemplated an absolute degree of divorce separating the retail and wholesale business, and that the ruling will tend to nullify that decree, "It is clear," he says, "that the underlying spirit of such an aim is controverted if the brewers are allowed to own the places where the saloons are conducted." Attack may also be made on the ruling that under saloon licenses liquor may be sold in any quantity.
