cano showed signs Of recuperation, and
was seen running neck neck with him
Mt the throe-quarter post. an exciting
race followed on the home stretch, Pom
pey, however, passing tho string In the
first mile about half u head In front OF
| the fnvorite.
But before tho quarter in tho second
mile was reached, Volcano had reas4
serted his superiority. Pompey being u
! couple Of lengths behind. On the back
stretch Pompey made u gallant effort to
come up aud only partially succeeded,
Volcano keeping ahead and winning tho
heat finally, in II lppe aud five lengths
ahead Of Pompey. Mamie Il. was no
where in tho race. but, rs it proved sub
sequeDtly, was in no condition to run.

Second HeM Pompey's defeat In the
first heat sent up tho betting on the fa-
vorite still higher, and there were many
that considered tho result u foregone
conclusion. But in racing, probably
more than in anything else, man Ia
doomed to disappointment. ponpey
again took tho lend, keeping 1t to the
half-mile post three lengths in advance
Of Volcano, who closed up ut the home
turn, and ran under the line one length

neck -a-neck, running under the whip
in the same exciting positions to the

| Third Heot. Probably owing to evi-
dences ot the physical disability of tho
favorite, the betting changed heavily
against him. Indeed, when Volcano
came out OF tho paddock for this last
heat, he was so lame that even the inno-
cents noticed it. Hedging on the part
Of tho knowing ones was therefore all
the go. Pompey had the lead Mt the
turn and kept it. At the half mile Vol

THIRD RACE. In short while the
third race was called. Kiliburn, Survivor.
| Capt Hutchinson, Falmouth, Capt.
! Reeder, Caribou, and russ BrOtdnux AS
! the starters. CariboU very restless, and
Capt Reeder behaving SO badly that the
| general opinion was that his chances
were m mythical. This w,s the one mile
dash for u club purse Of $500, second
and third, respectively, to receive $50
and 500 Klburn and Survivor,
until the close Of the pools, alternating
in the appreciation Of tho betters, with,
! however, u slight difference, on the av-
crage, in favor Of this latter. At the
/ leap CaribOo got the start, Kilburn
second. At the quarter pole Kilburn
was in front, Cariboo second and Fai-
mouth third. On the back stretch Sur
viyor made for the lead, but only got
second place. After they had passed the
/ half-mile post Survivor was running
| fully up with Kilburn. Pus5 BroadDax,
who had occupied the second place for
moment near the half-mile, gave way
| TO Falmouth, who now found himself
running close behind the favorites On
rounding tho turn Kilburn, appreciat-
| ing the value Of the home road, took
the front, leading Survivor one length
under the string Capt. Hutchinson
third and the remainder shut out All
came in under whip. Time as.
