The grand stand was filled to the limit during the afternoon and there were possibly 1,500 or 1. 000 more in the bleachers. But there was lots of room left. Probably 8,000 mora could have obtained seats to watch the races. But there were hun dreds standing on the west, side of tha f randstand ana nunareas more in me ong line of carriages and automobiles lined up along the track inslaa tne potato fields; It was an enthusiastic audience, ready to cheer at the slightest provocation.

In the 2:09 pace for the Rose City purse of $2,600 the western record for the five fastest heats In any one race was splintered by the records made of 2:06. 2:08. 2:08, 2:0714 and 2:08.

Introduced by Wills was ridiculous the council this morning killed It by a vote : of 12 to J. Mrs." tola G. Baldwin, In an. effort to have' the ordinance passed made the . startling statement on the council floor that there are 100 saloons In the city which cater to the trade of women and that 1,400 young girls and women nightly patronize the liquor stands. : he said she had visited the saloons between the hours of 10 p. m. and 1 a. m. during a period of several months and the figures she gave, she said, are conservative. , The Wills ordinance proposed to eliminate every entrance and exit to the saloons excepting through the front ioor. It further provided that chairs and tables be tabooed and that a full and 'unobstructed view of the Interior be given from the street. Councilman Baker and Wills Indulged In a word tilt In which both made use of the personal expletive variety of re partee and bodlnage. Bakec contended that the ordinance would put the sa loons out of business and Wills and his adherents declared that it would only prevent the women from entering places where liquor is -sold. Tlie charges against W. Thlbaulf, pro- firletor of the Newmarket saloon, were nvestigated by the council and after a lengthy interchange of the usual vapid "latitudes, ware re-referred lo the liquor license committee. The ordinance prohibiting the trans fer of liquor licenses from one person to another was re-refefred to tke liquor license committee after Councilman Baker had moved to indefinitely post pone consideration of the measure. Sara Maxuroscky, the auctioneer, pe titioned for a license but the council refused to grant It by voting flown the adoption of the majority report 9 to 5. Franoblse Is Told.
