Tho weather has been pltiIess TO the Brooklyn
Jockey Club. Not for many years mas any reens W

Quality Of the racing brought together great n'sus

excel,ent racing First and foremost OF the
of the day was the Incompatible running VI 'n"' s

th. comic opera beast Fenclon TO the post TO compete
with The Bard and Hanover OF course fcneoh was
last all the way and never had any moro chanoe ha

from the race-course. ihe baru was ,,a,.or

Well where arc the first class ones then W.
Hanover cou,d do nothing against The Baru "0

The Bard set and piteble wreck j" 'iio ""s.
hslfmiIe But he still had speed ana siasihs 49,
enough to ourin volantc by dozen iens'hs' anu o"s
on Inaccessible and paralyaing piece Oh 49,
on McIaughln's part enabled Volsnte 10 re. ,he
n,sca from Hanover When Mclaughlin realized tns'
no had as much chance Of catching The Bard as an
Aipne glacier which moves foot each year. mas y.
overtaking stroke of lightning. he eased inc son VI
lI,ndoo and Murphy, on Volante, caught MN ofoa"
ing and Just snatched the place from HIM IDS eauseu
much unpleasant talk Really there was no shaoo"
of excuse for Mclaughlin but even tho oes' VI h'i
can Jockeys at times makes mistakes
The track was a swamp, deep In mud ana WAFER
and the rain fell necessarily. But there were some
bright spots in the general gloom one was ino
Bard's MAGNIFICENT running Another was NicLaosn
Inns riding of Seymour to victory In the hith race
although Sheridan gave the twO-yearolds tho most
rcprchensible start of the meeting, shutting out mar
,isbure and Miss Cody altogether But why inc
trainer, of Montana Miner Morrisseys stable shoulo
have mt q green boy, whose talents are haruly up
TO tho level of pumping water for the hiy 10 orinh
on the back Of Miss Cody is past hndng OUT MISS
Cody ought to have won the race out Win suoh
rider she could hardly have kept pace with an hrie
canal boat whose traction mulc power had deserted
H. servia seems to be common junk She was no
where. .,u
Then. too Mclaughlin, riding with Portiands
speed proved an nvincible combination In the last
rece, although for some incomprehehsiDio i0aooA WV
publIc made Brambleton the favorite.
The favorites in tho first three races were ueiea'e
one after another to the unbounded delight OF ths
bookmalers, who profted largely Lady Primrose
succunnbed to the lightly weighted Golden Reel All
McLauchn's skill could not get Favor homo oeioie
Dry Monopole although the trainer and the friends OF
the raz stable did not expect the little horse 10 out

Governor Bowels Belle dor could undoubtedly nave
