him. Constantine slao came up with rush
aud passed her rivals. The race from that
point to he last quarter was very close, Billy
G. getting the worst OF it. Hickory Jim
finally passed ahead and led into the home
| stretch, where Conssntins soon collsred him
and putting on pretty burst of speed, came
in an easy winner, Hickory Jim second, Jim
Turner third.
THE SECOND RACE,
| for the Cotton Exchange s. axe, one and one
| half miles, derived it's interest froa the
entry of Drake Carter, the famous three year
old who is selling high up for the Lousviile
| Derby. Japonica aud Willie E., who were
| aiso entered, were drawn, leaving only Joe
| s. and Sovereign Pat 10 go with the crack. 1t
was foTegone conclusion that Carter would
win, and the only diHerencs Of opinion wss
| in regard to second place. AT the signal
| Carter took the lead, wi Pat at his heels
snd Joe s. trailing three lengths behind.
| The same positions were maintained until
! tha heavy grade al the turn was rescued,
| when Pat threw up his tail and Joe sped
past him, taking just about his distance in
| Carriers rear. Il was evident that Carter
was running with perfect ease, and this
was even more apparent when The trio
rounded the three-qusrter pole aud headed
for the string. They passed around il the
s,me order, except that Pat kept dropping
| further and further bshind, and Carter won
by three lengths in : galiop. He is the para
goa of three year ODDS, well ma cled, clean
fimbed, and has the superb action that char
acler zed his great sire. He will make the
pace hot for Ascender at Louisville.
THE THIRD RACE,
a dash of FIVE eigaths of mile, for the Club
Purse, $3.50, drew out Lutte Fogle, BIckmas-
ter, EulaIie, Haddisco and Wild Kansas.
EnuIa hnf f.uorita threa 20 ,,,a
against the field, and the only doubt as
to his winning was based upon his we'll
known suikiness at the siarl. Aud he
fully deserved the DOUBT, for the
race MAS DELAYED nearly twenty miuutes by
the Efforts OF the starter and his assiFl ants 10
get the brute of. When their efforts were
iually rewarded with success, he made a
spriug as usual ane was lsrgh ahead at
the string, II addisco next, Buckm astsr, Wild
Kana as and Eulaiie following as named. He
bad the race iron the start, and the great
contest was ior second place. Haddisco
seemed likely to get it until Buckmaster
csllared him at the up grade and left him on
the summit. Eulalie then m ade play for the
prize, and passed ii sddisco after turning the
last quarter pole. The race 10 the flush was
between Fogle ana Blckmaster, but the
champion ker was moi TO be outcome and
he won "hsnds down."
THE sTEEPLE CHASE,
two-and-one. half miles, which closed the
days programme, was thought 10 be between
Eva A. and Florence D., the Memphis Sta
bies' entries, Twilight and Tennessee Girl
being backed only on the chance that the
favorites mig hit break the rules or their necks.
At first, popular opinion seemed in a fair
way 10 be sustained by resuits. Florence
got away first aud Eva A. next, the Mem
phis entries trailing far in the distance. The
hurdles add the water jump were taken by
all four very prettily, aad the distaucs be-
tween them wss unchanged uutii the stand
was cached on the second round when Eva
A made rush for the lead and laoped
Florence. the next urdle they mounted
together, but net with the same for
ture, for florence rider wsnt over
her head and executed four distinct somsr-
ssulis while che ran 10 the half mile. Eva
A, went on with sure victory ahead, but at
the place where Florence had halted she
went around the outside of the hsg out OF
bounds and had 10 go back to the hurdle be-
mind. Meanwhile tennessee Girl came along
and on leapiDg over in the field of disaster
wa, seized with the ill luck that
ruled it, and also went aslray. Twi-
light, who had followed close at
Der heels, was now master of the situation.
Walker, he rider Of The Girl, was put on his
back aud be went on in taking the hurd e.,
gsllzntly, followed at long distance by Ev,,
whoss rider remembered when il was t
late that he had undervalued his ant gonist.
He was never abe 10 recover his lost van
tsge, and Twilight passed uodsr the string
an easy winner. Tsnne see Girl was mounl-
ed aud made "far away" third.
