DONCASTER SEPTEMBER MEETING.

TUODAY.

The prospects of • great meeting at Doncaster were per-
haps never more apparent than on Monday, when the
usually dull and uninteresting town assumed an aspect of
bustle and .excitement. That the inhabitants were fully
prepared to commence their harvest was fully evident from
the painting and renovation of the various streets where
apartments are usually let. The whole of the trains from
London and elsewhere were crammed • indeed, the Great
Northern Conspaus7, to facilitate the Sniffle on their line,
despatched " specials" before the ordieary trains. Although
the arrivals at the station were frequent, and the trains
heavy, the arrangements were such that much confusion
was obviated, and passengers were enabled to reach the
cabs and other conveyances without risk of accident.
Lodgings were found to be as scarce as usual in the
town, and, as • matter of course, " war prices "
were asked and obtained for accommodation. Oa none of
the journeys down had there been any betting at the
newel places of refreshment, and where in previous years
many transactions bad been recorded ; consequently the
voyageurs, sager to learn the latest movements respecting
the St. Lger cracks, Hermit, Achievement, and aubau,
were content to take • hasty toilette, to be at the rooms
in good time. The attendance was large, but it was sonic
time before the business began, not even an °e'er being
made. Of the St. Leger horses the name of Vauban was
first canvassed, one speculator offering 2,000 to 200 against
the son of Muscovite, which was rie&y accepted, as were
also the same odds to a " monkey." Taking them in the
order of favouritism it may be mentioned that Hermit was
entrusted with • lot of money at 5 to 4, the principal bets
about him being 550 to 400 and 500 to 400, laid twice. For a
place Mr. Chaplin's horse was backed several time', some
of his friends laying 5 to 2 and 3 to 1 on him, one
gentleman entrusting him with three " monkeys."
Achievement', price during the evening never varied one
fraction, although she was backed to win something like
10,0001., and it is believed that had she been entrusted
with three time, that amount which could without much
difficulty have been got on, she would have been no better
favourite. Her price was 7 to 4, the Marquis of Hastings
being am her supporters, accepting 7,000 to 4,000. For
1,000 to 400 was laid on the mare. Vauban re-
:turned almost stationary, at 8 to 1, hut had • point more
been forthcoming he would have been supported for • lot
of money, as he would also have been for a place had the
bookmakers been willing to advance upon 7 to 4. Chal-
lenge, too, had his friends, and was backed for a large
Make, first at 1,000 to 30, then at 3,000 to 100, and 25 to 1,
!nay at 1,000 to 40, which was taken several times,
so that it is computed that the son of Trumpeter
and Mrs. Alice could not have been supported
for much less than 25,0001. His owner, the Marquis of
Hastings, also backed the horse for an even thousand
against Julius, only one to he in the first three. Should
both obtain places the bet will be off. Fora place, 2to 1,
and occasionally 3 to 1, was obtainable about Julius, but
he was not entrusted with any great amount of money.
An unlooked-for competitor was introduced Leto the bet.
tins in the "dark " Longchamps, who was backed at 1,000
to 10 and 1,000 to 12 to win close upon 30,000 f. Tibthorpe,
the sensational winner of the Goodwood Steward,' Cup,
wee likewise supported at the outside price of 1,000 to 10,
whilst the Palmer found a friend who accepted 1,000 to 15
about him. Fervacques, to win, was friendless, though 4
to 1 was taken about him for • place. The
Great Yorkshire Handicap was somewhat shrouded in
mystery. At one time sto 1 was taken about Seville, but
it subsequently oozed out that she would not be among the
Marten, and amulet any odds were offered against her.
For some time it was doubtful which was the favourite,
the transactions being of so rnywerious a nature. The
Derby was also touched upon—Court Mantle, Blue Gown,
and Manieloke each being backed at long prices. The
only transaction upon the autumn handicaps which come
under our notice was the seaplane. of 1,000 to 10 about
Minster.

This morning opened somewhat sharp and cold, but
nevertheless thin was an lausimas amembLip on the

moor to witness the morning gallops of the competitors for
the big event of the morrow. Hermit was, of course,
the lion of the hour, and as be took his
gallop, led by Target, he was followed by an
eager crowd. The crack went very well, and evidently
pleased the critics, who by the aid of lorgnettes watched
the gallop throughout. Achievement had not arrived,
and the most notable of the other horses who went the
St. Leger coarse was Julius. The sales in the horse mar-
ket, by Mr. Tattersall, occupied oonsklerable attention,
several first class lots being disposed of. The Rooms,
too, were well attended, and the bookmakers appeared
anxious to transact business, which, however, was only
dulL The feature was the " coming" of Thalia for the
Great Yorkshire. Seville occupied a mysterious position,
even money being betted that she did not run. Anent the
Leger, there was a somewhat sensational movement. Her-
mit had not pleased some of the knowing ones in his
gallop in the morning, and they alleged that he had
tired much coming up the straight. In consequence
of this fi to 4 was at one time laid, but he speedily re-
gained his position, and left off at 11 to 8, at which price
be was backed to win some money. Achievement was the
subject of one investment, 350 to 200 being laid against
her. Julius seemed to have taken his work so kindly in
the morning and gallopped so freely that there was quite a
rush to get on hint for a place, the very disproportionate
odds of 2 to 1 being accepted that he obtained a situation,
whilst 20 to 1 was offered against his winning. His
trainer, Mat Dawson, is confident that the colt will run
into a place. This was the bulk of the business done. The
racing commenced with the Fitzwilliam Stakes, which
produced a very goodfield, and was won by perhaps the
handsomest horse in training, Friponnier. He
bad, however, some difficulty in disposing of
Sundeelsh, who seems to retain his form, and even
improve with advancing years, like that evergreen wonder,
Moulsey. The Filly Stakes proved what it appeared, a
foregone conclusion for Athena ; and the Glastriw Stakes
fell to Donaldbaiu. The Champagne Stakes caused a good
deal of excitement. owing to the unexpected result.
Speculum gave a further proof of merit as a fair two-yr-
old, by winning the Revival Plate, and Master Willie, a
complete outsider, gave the followers of Kenyon 's mounts
a rare turn, which they have not bad for some time. The
ridiculous match between Tremble and Nike at even
weights, which looked a hundred to one on Nike on paper,
ended the day's proceedings by Nike winning in a common
minter. Below are appended full details :

Betting: 6 to 4 apt Friponnier, 4 to 1 apt Viridis, 5
to 1 agst Speculum, 8 to 1 agst Xl, and 100 to 8 eget Sun-
deelah. A slight delay preceded the actual start, which
was effected on the most equitable terms, Janet
Rawcliffe being the first to show in advance of
Friponnier, Sundeelah, Viridis, Blueskin, and Scotch-
man's Pride, Xi and Catiline bringing up the
rear until approaching the Red House turn, where XI
ran forward, but immediately afterwards dropped into the
ex.reine rear. Janet Rawcliffe held the advantage round
the turn with Friponnier next the rails, Viridis and Sun-
deelah being next, Beauty on the outside being well up.
Rounding the turn into the straight the lot spread out
musideribly, the colours of Speculum being prominent in
the centre of the course, attended by Scotchman'a Pride,
Friponnier next the rails, with Sundeelah on his left.
When fairly within the straight the two last-named drew
away, but " Frip " always having the best of the struggle
won cleverly by a neck. The Miss Sarah colt passing the
eased boron was • bed third, Speculum fourth, Scotch-
man'. Pride fifth, Janet Rawcliffe sixth, Beauty seventh,
Viridis eighth, Blueskin ninth, Catiline next, and Xi
lad, the lot pulling up.

Betting : 100 to 30 on Athena, and 6 tolagstJenny. The
latter held • slight advantage of the favourite in the
centre of the course to the distance, when Athena beaded
the French filly, and won, after the semblance of • struggle,
by • length. Buttercup was defeated • similar distance,
the Braxy filly was fourth, and Leis, who threw her jockey
before startingwas last all the way. Snowden was not
hurt by his fall, remounting in time for the start.

The following alas ran :—Weiton, Brother to Knight of the

them, Tate Royal. and Ironmaster.
Betting : 2 to 1 apt Blue Gown, 11 to 2 apt Vale
Royal, 7 to 1 each against Mercury end Virtue' 10 to 1
agst Marmaluke and Ironmaster, and 100 to 6 apt Bel
Giorno. Several false starts occurred owing to the
fractiousness of Lady Highthorn, and the Parson, who re-
f fused to join his horses, and eventually, when the flag
fell, the latter whipped round, and was left at the post.
After a few strides had been taken Ironmaster, next the
rails, took up the running, closely attended by Lady High-
thorn, Virtue, and Bel Giorno; just in rear of this lot
being Blue Gown. On the right, lying well up, were
Pace, Vale Royal, and Mercury. As they came round the
turn sfameluke was observed to be several lengths in rear
of his horses, but the front division underwent no change
until fairly into the straight, where Virtue was slightly
disappointed, having to pull round Bel Giorno. At
the distance, however, she beaded Iroumaster and
Lady Highthorn, who dropped away beaten, leav-
ing Blue Gown on the rails, and Bel Giorno
and Mercury in close attendance on the daughter of Stock-
well and Patience. At the half distance, Wells riding
the favourite with admirable patience, brought him up
inch by inch, and, answering with wonderful gameness
when called upon, Sir Joseph Hawley's colt shot out and
won very cleverly by three-quarters of a
_length. Bel
(barna, racing to the end, was beaten • head only by
Virtue. Manieluke, running through the beaten harems
at the distance, was • bad fourth, Brother to Knight of
the Closeout fifth, Ircemsetar sixth, Vale Royal seventh,
Pace eighth, Mercury ninth, Welton tenth and lady
Highthorn last. The Parson walked in, not having taken
any part in the race. On returning to scale it was found
that Wells was overweight, he having overdrawn the
21bs. allowed, and Blue Gown was disqualified according to
the 38th rule of rasing.
THE GREAT YORKSHIRE HANDICAP of 25 soya. each, 10

Mandrake and Weather Star, 16 to 1 apt Grand Crow, 20
to 1 each apt War, Honeymoon, and La Dauphine, ant:
25 to 1 apt Lessee. A few seconds' delay occurred before
the flag was lowered, which it eventually was to • fair
start, Seville and Thalia being the first army, but after
going • few strides they were pulled back, and Montt/ems
took up the running, followed by Seville, Thalia, and
Mandrake, next to whom came Knight Errant and Breda-
nutnte, the rear being brought up by War, Weather Star,
Grand Cross, and La Dauphine, the latter of whom was
several leegths in the rear. After going half • mile,
Leases ran up to Monitrees, and the latter immediately
improved the pace, the pair being clear of their }ones,
who were still following in the order enumerated above,
with the exception of Grand Cross, who had quitted
Weather Star, and taken his place In the ruck. No
change occurred until approaching the Rifle Butts,
where Leases gave way, leaving Seville Thalia,
Mandrake and Knight Errant, in waiting upon
Monitreas: who retained the advantage until round-
ing the bend into the straight, where the rsquire's
mare was beaten, and Thalia was left with the teed to the
half-distance, where she was joined by Seville, Mandrake,
and Thalia, the four running a good race home; but the
moment Butler called upon Seville she answered gamely,
and won cleverly by half a length from Thalia, Mandrake
being defeated a length from Lord Westmorland's mare.
Bradamante was a good fourth, Knight Errant fifth, Mont.
tress sixth, Harry Brailsford seventh, Leases eighth,
Honeymoon ninth, Obnar tenth, War eleventh, Grand
Cross twelfth, La Dauphine next, the absolute last being
Weather Star.

The room was crowded and an immense amount of busi-

in great force, and the position of Achievement was de-
cidedly improved, she being toward, the close equally as
good a favourite as Hermit. Vauban was scarcely so firm,
12 to 1 being offered after 10 to I had been accepted. The
remaining feature was the backing of Longchamps, the new
French champion, to win several thousands. The follow-

PORTSMOUTH, Scrt. 10.
The Urgent, iron screw troopship, Captain S. H.
Henderson, arrived at Spithead during the night from
China, with officers and men paid off from ships on that
station, and came into harbour this morning to land them.
The Crocodile, iron screw troopship, Captain G. W.
Watson, was inspected to-day by Admiral Sir Thomas
PaeLp Bart., the commander-in-chief at this port, and
will to-morrow embark detachments for conveyance to
Alexandria, these being the first drafts by the new Indian
line of steamers and the overland
The Orontes, iron screw troopsemsltain Phelps, will
embark the 63th Regiment on the 14th inst., fox convey-
ance to Queenstown.

THE Carcnarrza.—The training ship Chi-
chester, lately moored at Erith for the reception of
homeless boys, is said to have already produced some
of the anticipated good results, and several young
lads, rescued from a life of sorrow and want, have been
sent out as trained sailor boys. But although these
boys are approved by the ships' captains, it is found
that until the boys can be taught how to deer a vessel,
as well as the other duties of a seaman, they cannot
be well received by the rest of the ship's crew. The sug-
gestion is made that a small vessel, say a ratter of 20 tons,
should be attached to the Chichester as • " tender." The
best boys could then be taught to handle the tiller by
voyages to the Afore. They would learn also the use of
buoys, beacons, and lights. They would have a powerful
incentive to progress in their bookwork, and the tender
would be most useful in carrying officers and bop and
stores to and from London, and thus save considerable
expense. This being a new proposal, it will be necessary
to have additional contributions for the purchase of the
Under.
