a Bad Day For the Favorltes-The Small
End Wins.
The attendance at the races yesterday
was quite large, although the weather was
warp1--a sight breeze blowing from the
north. The running races brought large
number of men around the pool-stand.
The first race announced was the running
three-quarter mile dash, $3.50 added, Sl00
to second horse third to save stake. This
race had the largest number of entries of
any during the fair and ten finer-looking
racers never appeared on any track than
did Daisy D., Sleepy Dick, Peregrine, Ap-
plause, Welcome, AL. Farrow, Extract, Not
Idle, ldalene Cotton and Edelweiss Pools
varied. The first one sold: Peregrine, $40;
Sleepy Dick, Sl4; Extract, S12; field, S2S.
The second one sold Field, $50; Peregrine,
$40 Sleepy Dick, $50; Extract SIS. After
that all tour alternated in choice, first
one and then another going as favor
ite, and pools selling as rapidly as the sell
ers could make change. The horses were
all saddled in front of the grand stand, and
each WAS surrounded by groups of admir-
ers.
At 1870 the horses were taken to the quar-
ter-pole for start The colts were restless,
some of them very unruly. On the third
attempt, when AL. Farrow's rider attem pied
to pull him up, he jumped the fence and
cantered off toward the center field. He
would make good hurdle horse and his
jockey a steeple-chase rider.
After several Intellectual attempts, the
horses had a very good send-off, and all
went well together until in the home
stretch, when the rider of Daisy d. went
to the front. and won handily in 1:143, Not
Idle second, Applause third.
