others followed in order-Trix, Ella Rowett,
Fleur de Lis and Baritone. La Belle came
under the wire with hands down, her rider
having gone without whip or spur, TriX
second and Ella Rowett and Fleur de Lis a
dead heat for third, and Baritone two
lengths behind. Time, las.

Now and again the three hind horses would
get into cluster, and again they would
trail. La Belle n had dead-sure thing:
None could head her. TriX, however,
closed up On her pretty well on the home
stretch under the spur and lash. The race
was finished with La Belle Y first, TriX
second, Ella ROwett third and Fleur de Lis
fourth. Time, 1:451l.

THE POOLS.
Another big crowd assembled in the ro-
tunda of the Nicollet house last evening
long before the time for selling the pools,
and when the deep bass voice of the seller
rang through the exchange the mods were
fast and furious. In the running race
Des Moines proved a favorite, with Pamela
second. The most interest was manifested
in the pacing race. John II sold generally
first choice for So, and Matte Stipp second
choice for So, and Niger third choice for
81. This was an innovation exceedingly
amusing to the turfmen. That third choice
should sell for more money than either first
or second choice is an enigma not explained.
In the trotting race Boston Davis sold
favOrite against the field, SO against 81.
When Boston Davis was barred Carrie B
and Western Maid went for equal money
with the field. That is. each would bring
SO and the field $40, making the aggregate
pool $50.
