GOLDEN GATE FAIR.
Nero, Applause, Gambo and Lur.
line Win Their Races.
A Fast Seven Furlongs Run by Two-Year.
Old-Mat Storms Luck Changes-Another
Setback for the Talent.

The attendance yesterday at the Oakland
track was the best of the meeting. Nero's
seven furlongs in :27A was a great per
Torrance over not extra fast track for a
two-year-old, and the Palo Alto people evil
IDENTIFY have another good one to follow Flam-
beau and Ra cine. Mat Storms success in
running second in two races and winning
the last was most acceptable to the public
and all honest turfmen. His horses invarl-
ably are run to win, and when beaten no
suspicion of their not trying is ever enter
tanned. Mat has been in somewhat hard
luck for the past few years, but turn
seems to have occurred in his fortunes, and
that yesterdays successes are only the pre-
cursors of many others is the general hope
Of the public. Honors were divided evenly
between the favorites and outsiders yeSIer-
day, though the defeat of the Pao Alto
stable in the last race, when heavy first
choice. cost the talent many a dollar.
