pioue and Brambe to make the three-quarermie con-
test for the sweepstakes for twoyeards of $3.50 each
play or paw with 800 added. provided three or more
horses the property OF different should start the
second horse TO save his stake. lnasmuch as only TWO
started under the conditions the Si00 was withdfawn,
leaving the prize to be merely $3.50, the stake OF

victory, there no opportunity LOT auithnu-
ing over the start. Brambe being quick TO get
Roadway and securing full lengths adyantageat the
outset Bramb!e set voIy fast pace, apparently In
tending 10 force the running TO end while Pique ran
easily length and half behind and made no effort TO
cope with her adversary until well down the home
stretch Brambe would have been pleased to have
stopred second or two for BREATH but his rider piled the
whip and spur il there wasn't time, while Pique
rushed past without urging, and won handsomely Dy
