known to this force and as soon "a one is
seen he is promptly elected from the

There has not yet been n case, as far as
known, Of any one having lost anything
at the hands of pickpooket.
AS usual the races were the biggest at
trhction for the crowd In the afternoon.
The grand stand, however, was but little
over half allied. They were exciting, en-.
pecially the 2 40 class which had 10
starters ont 10 entries.
The first raoe was the 2.24 class, which
was won ia straight heats by Decorator.
The next race, the 2.34 clsss, was also
taken IN straight heats by Adelaide. The
30 class for Peninsula horses was a
procession almost from beginning to end
and was ap easy victory for Rosa Lee.
After tho latter race, the owner of Matte
Morgan, which horse finished third
| offered TO het s3l00 that his horse could
beat Rosa Leo IN special race. The
latter's owner refused to accept. The
40 class was exciting from beginning to
end and was posip med until tomorrow
afternoon on account OF darkness
AlEoma and Volonia each won two heats
aud Frank @ one. The racers had con-
siderable trouble In starting and at the
conclusion Of each heat, nearly all of the
driyers made claims Of foul. The sum-
