Frat Hest-Tar River had lhe inside and
took the lead, but soon reinquiShed it to

mainder of the heat nv II length, winning by
about that distance. They ran the first mile
in l56. the second 1:33 and the third l:63-
making the entire heat so.
Sscoud H<st.-The odds were now greatly in
creased on Cheatham, and oxe hundred to
twenty went begging. There was in reality,
however, no reason for such eYtraYagant odds
Cheatham soon took the lead after the start,
and 1t the quarter pole was about Il length III
advance. Tar closed him on the back
stretch, and tapped him at The half-mie pole,
where he lay around the turn and up the home
stretch until they reached the stand, when
they were head and head. Going into the
second mile Tar River went III front about Il
length, and retained 1t to the three quarter
pole, where Cheatham Tapped on his flank, but
was unable to pass him, aud Tar came up the
home-strrtch and passed the stand one length
in advance, making the two miles III 3:t2. IhIs
advantage he retained until on tho bac X stretch
" hen the contest became iierce, aud Cheatham
Tapped Tar and made an unsuccessful attempt
to take the lead They ran into the home
stretch in this way, Tar still leading, when
another and more successful eiIorI was made
by CheathaIn. who went by Tar and won tho
heat by Il length, in 5:37. The following is II
