TICLTER KILLED.
TIL. snort AZ Cedarhurst yesterday was une1ccp
t,onaL The Rockaway stecplechase Association was
again favored with blue Sky and the brightest sun
shine by some freak OF nature, the contests were
close and exciting, and the multitude was grained
by seeing a death the track True, 1t was only
the death of horse, but yet 1t afforded some little
qualification. ]. II. Lewis, tr's, old gelding Chantf
cleer died in his harness, after making remarkable
effort The poor old nag fell at the outset OF the last
race picked himself up overlook his opponents amid
the cheers of the spectators and then went 10 MS
death As the gallant old racer fell over hurdle,
after safely taking the wateriump and the sfono
wall, and broke his reck, 1t was strange tnlhg 10
hear those who checred his efforts but moment
b.fore rroan-not I'm sympathy but from regret that
their patry stakes had been lost And oth-f betters
went frantic in the other way, because they had
won a few dollars by Chanticleers death And yet
we cry down tho brutality OF the bull-fght
