After the third heat of the 2:26 trot Dan Patch, the champion pacer of the world, was again brought out for his fast mile, accompanied by the runner Cobweb as a pacemaker. While the wind had gone down somewhat, there was still a strong breese prevailing and In the back stretch made quite a perceptible difference In his rate of speed. When Dan Patch was brought upon the track to make his supreme effort he was driven by Mr. H. C.

Horsey, who has him in charge this year, and he was at the quarter in Slit, the half In 1:0:11, the three-auarters In 1621i, and finished the mile in 2:06 flat. He broke in the third quarter, something that he has never done before, by catching his foot in a wheel, which delayed him somewhat, and good judges claim that had It not been for this break h9 would have beaten 2:06. As It was he took the Iowa i-tite reoid fcr pacers over a half mile track. The former record was made at Marion, this summer, by Harold H. MAKES RECORD FOR IOWA PACERS ON HALF MILE TRACK.

It was one of the fiercest and most exciting matches that has ever been pulled off in Des Moines and both men went in for blood from the very start. Burns obtained the first fall. Parr got the second and the third was given to Burns, but there was considerable dispute among those present, and Parr himself, a-s to the fairness of it. Doc Fillmore refereed the match and gave Burns the last bout on what is known as a pin fall; that Is, his shoulders touched the mat and immediately came up again, giving the appearance to the untrained eye as If there had been no fall. A large crowd was present to witness the bout and were well satisfied in the way of fast wreatllng and good head work on the part of both men.

The match was a hot one and although Burns finally got the decision, Parr, the plucky little Englishman, put up one of the stlffest and gamest fights lat Burns has been up against In some time. Just previous to Burns' second fall Parr was In a ftilr wy to put Burns to the mat and for a time It looked very dangerous for the Iowa farmer. However, Burns managed to squirm out of the Englishman's hold and later won. The first fall went to Burns In twenty-four minutes and came as a result of a crotch and hammer lock hold. It was a good full fall and Burns completely mastered his man.

At all stages of the first tout Burns was the more aggresslvo but whenever Parr had the opportunity, he rushed matters considerably and showed some verv clever work. The second fall went to Parr In thirteen mlputes and came frm a half-Nelson and a bar lock. Although Parr had lost the first fall he came up for the second fresh and full of ginger and went to work with plentv of determination. In this bout arr thowed that he was not only Burns' equal In strength but he was very quick and pushed his man rafd In that respect. The third fall went to Burns In, nine minutes and was the result of a crotch and English cross lock hold.

The bridge position was also used and Burns is particularly clever with It. as was proven. When the third decision was given a liirge number of the people appeared to be clssatlsilel and wanted the thing to be wrestled out, but Fillmore had given his decision and would not retreat. Burns save the referee gave his decision and he has nothing tr fay. Parr says its a robbery, although he would have taken the same stand Burns took under the same circumstances.

Other Bouts Arranged. This evening Farmer Burns will meet Madiscn. the man who stnyed with him fifteen minutes last Monday evening, and Burns agrees to throw him twice in fifteen minutes or forfeit Burns had all that he could handle last Monday. Tomorrow evening Jim Breoton, who recently became a saloon proprietor, will taken on bv Jim Parr.

The contests were similar to the double-header of Tuesday, in that the first was well played game, in spite of the hard hitting, while the second was character-lied by dumb r'aying, Colorado Springs being much the worst offender. Two games were played today Instead of one today and one tomorrow, that Des Moines may get back to Omaha In time to play Saturday. There were no special feature In today's games, unless Graham's rank work In the second game might be count-ed as such.

In addition to four costly errors, he committed several other offenses that could not be recorded In the score book. On the whole, the Des Moines team has played better ball than any other visiting team during the present at home series, and there are a few wise ones here who are picking the Politicians to land the pennnnt.

An attempt was made to rob one bookmaker but It failed. The Inlured are: Frank Williams, left foot lacerated. Mitchell Bruno, right foot lacerated.

A. M. McOlll. received a severe scalp wound and was badly bruised in the panic. None of the Injured Is seriously hurt The first explosion was caused by Williams, who.

while walking through the east side of the ring, stepped on a cap. It exploded, tearing off his shoe and lacerating his foot severely. He fell to the floor with a cry, and Instantly there was a shout that an Insane man was discharging his revolver at random. Immediately there was a wild panic, and while the bookmakers, seeing their cash boxes, went low to theii booths, the crowd rushed across to the south fide of the ring in the effort to escape. Just as the thick of the throng reached this side of the ring Bomebody trod on another cap and the crowd tore back to the place where it had started on the first this rush and wr.s trampled upon, his rush and was trampled upon.

A third explosion took place some minutes after the panic had been allayed. It occurred lust beneath a chair on which Bruno was sitting, throw him to the floor and a portion of the cap striking his foot, tore it badly. While the excitement waa at Its highest a man made an effort to grasp the cash box of a bookmaker doing business under the name of the Chicago club. He was knocked down by a clerk and ran awav before he could be arrested. A search of the betting ring, made after the inlured had been removed, revealed a number of caps lying about the floor.

Champion Jeffries said tonight: "No plays for the grand stand this time. I will bo satisfied with a decision as well as with a knockout. I den want to win on a dangerous punch If I can win easier on a decision. While I shall fight the bert that Is In me. It will be cautiously.

People who are betting on Ihe number of rjunds will get no consideration from me. I don't care how many rounds It takes as long as I win. I am emphatic In my decision that I will not start if Mnnroo tries to use anything but soft bandages on hands." Munroe said: "I am In as good shape as it rs posslhle for me to be.
