Second Heat-All five appeared at the call Of The

and was in front for about 200 YARDS but Tarquin
went also TO work, and having the heels came in
front at the conclusion of the sweep ATLANTA close
upon him, Bergen next, r indeer fourth, and Cham
pagne bringingup the rear.

upon the second mile swept roand the south bend in

and heade! Tarquin. They now went along the back
stretch at COED pace the rider of Tarquin taking
strong pull if for second wind. When rounding
the north sweep, Reindeer past Bergen and went
upnext to Tarquin Sd, Champagne making a long
tail. In coming up the front stretch, Reindeer went
close up 10 the mare VINO continued 10 lead past fhe
stand Tarquin 3d., Bergen someway behind 4h, and
Champagne evapora,ed. The three leading horses
went thas well round the South turn and along the
back run. They now passed the half mile pole for
the last time, and went up the hill strong, and in
good style, which brought them once more to the
| north bend Here as before Reindeer made dash,
wentpast the mare, followed by Tarquin, who in turn
made play and challenged, they ran together Is the
last turn which they made well together. Tarquin
continued to make severe running up the greater
