racing day But the number Of losers was not SO great

generous and genial qualities and constancy under the
acverost blows Of fortune have made him of tho

manner in which the of Virgil and Kentucky Belle
ran Yesterday proved that only the deploablc collision
with Welcher on Tuesday gave the great Lorllard

Then the public made his colt Blackstone the favortc

instead of engaging Hayward Hughes who had
served him in the pre- yOus races. he put up Mckinney
whose claim to the title of the worst rider in America
is almost undsputed. Of course Mckinney pulled |
Blackstone far back that he had no chance. This
