were shy. The two first races were such
summers. and as the third paid "nothing,"
money was closed. Besides, the field was

different "tip" or winner. The auc.

He looked remarkably spry, and galloped
nimby past TO the starting point. There
were several false starts, for the large field
was restless and anxious to get of. At last
aeood start was made, and the thirteen
horses sprang away. Neufcbatel showed
first TO the front. with the red and white
colors Of Bowels stable on Oriole second,
then the violet, on Outcast. The
blue and red Of the Clabaugh sta
BILE, worn by Oden's jockey, was fourth,
while the other nine horses were all
in a bunch. Down past the grand stand the
great troop came. The crowd gave one
great cheer Us The horses flew by-almost
too quickly to place them. Neufcbatel was
still holding bis own, with Oden near him.
Al the quarter-mile pole Farley, with bis
orange Jacket. slowed Neufchatel In the
lead: oSeD, TbOra, Glenm0re. Ou'cast,
and OrioIe were near him. But Farley
knew his horse, and though one by one the
other dozen changed places, Neufchatel was
never hesded. Saunterer, on whom so
many relied. made squirt on the back
stretch. but it did not tell. and even ThOra
was lost In the crowd. Oden alone seemed

down the homesretcb, Neufchalel leading,
Oden came up second. The sight was a
beautiful one. The bright colors Of the
jockeys, the flying horses, and the large
number so close together, made the crowd
on the grand stand and lawn shout with
Holm hate and haa Irntt
chiefs with enthusiasm. Neufchstel passed
