No fpeu June weather was dreamed OF by poet
than that # yesterday, and the final afternoon was
full of fun Tho attendance was large, tho pe''ihs
keen and the interest in the sport OF the sharpcs'
One conspicuous feature OF the day was the admfaoe
riding Not Jockey Numbered, not finish was thrown
away and the best horses at the weights ana distance
won al, the fat races In the steeplechase, tho rider
of Harry Mann went down at the Jump, In fronf OF
the clubhouse, where Pope fell on Moncay' Inc
horses back was broken and he was dead In few
seconds but the jockey after some meditation IN me
grass by the track and the collection OF his scaereu
senses got up and limped away little hurt Referee
dropped his rider In the south field, and hins
Trouber and I,epeater also stalled at various
points. SO only three got bome Uncle BilF DAYS
Willie Palmer. ridden by the iireprcSslblc money

Mann was horse OF little value and must have vel
coined death eagerly as a relief from stceplechasing
So few tears were shed him. and as 1t was learned
that Pope the steepechase jockey, who was stepped
on by a horse on Monday, WAS recovering, general
happiness prevailed. The body OF poor Cross' VINO
lost his life in secplechase last week. was prop

supposed to have thing but he was beaten easily
by MI Haggn's Ransom. who was so little thought 81
by the stable that he was not backed for douai'
hayward ON his namesake and Garrison ON Ransom
rode superbly Their finishes were twenty four carats
fine but neither colt Is within twenty pounds OF
French Park
The start for this race perfect and all Mr.
Cadwelps work was faultless. He is trained to tho
hour now and is doing work never approached In
America
Only three ran In the second race and Brown Dukc
