...first event, the half mile scratch, was run in two heats. The men loafed, each waiting for the other to set the pace and the times made were very slow. In the first heat H. B. Hewitt was first with H. P. White second; time 1m. 31 3/5s. The second heat was won by H. H. Brown with L. de F. Smith second; time 1m. 25 1/5s. The final heat was won by H. B.

Jarvis and Kilpatrick had a terribly hot race for second place, and went around the last turn of the mile as though they had just started out on a 440 yards dash. The pace was tremendous and Kilpatrick, notwithstanding his race in the half a little while before, was able to get second place...
