The Golden West Clubs Fall Meeting at
Ocean View.
The members Of the Golden West Club
had great day at Caravans Park yester-
day. There were two stakes on the pro-
gramme, an alleged and puppy stake the
former having twenty-five nominations and
the latter fourteen. The all-aged had most
of the best dogs in the city in it, but never
al any meeting run at either of the inelosed
parks was there such downfall of favor
ties.
The day was all that could be desired for
cOuTsing, and the hares were great-no bet
ter could be wished for by the most exact
ing There were fully 400 people present,
and the betting on the various courses was
snguarly brisk.
John Grace was judge and James Wrin
was the slipper. Two rounds of the all
aged was run down and one round of the
puppy stake. twenty-seve courses in ala
great days work-and the first pair of dogs
were not slipped till 80 o'clock in the
forenoon.
FIRST ROUND.
T. Brady's Tom Moore and T. Cox's Port
Costa Bell were the first pair slipped. The
hare was fast one. but Tom was too fast
and too clever for the Port Costa lady and
won fine course.
J. j. Edmonds' juno and c. Ii. Cows
IT.
Prince led TO the hare by three lengths and
worked his game splendidly, running up
seven or eight points before he let his OPP
ponent in. The hare was demon and took
both dogs over the field twice. The little
pup stuck to his side, though, and eventu-
ally passed him, took the hare clean away
from him and won one of the greatest
courses ever run in the park.
Z. Canty's Play Boy made short work Of
Lady Corbett, easily winning his course.
-
DOugherty's Lackawanna had a sharp but
short course. The latter made pretty kill,
which sent the white flag up in her favor
j. j. Edmonds' Plppin Jr. and NJ. Shana-
hans Nelly were slipped 20 lively run
ner, which made both dogs put their best
foot foremost before they succeeded in turn
ing her, and then it was seen that Pippin
had the best of it and finished it with
smart kill.
J. Byrn's Nelly Bly, andSF Cox's King
were then sent in chase OF traveller that
Salvador could not catch and he led the pair
such a dance that by the time he went
through the fence neither of them were sorry
that he disappeared from their gaze. Nelly
got the course.
Edward Canovan's Blanco and D. Quilts
Listowell Boy had a pretty run, but BlancO
had too much foot for his opponent, and
won good course.
T. j. Cronin's Dan B and P. Browns Tip
perary Clipper had also good run, and the
Clipper was very near upsetting Dams
chance, but after the third turn Dan made
up his mind evidently to do more work, as
he had no slouch to deal with; he then put
on a squirt and won good course
L. ID. Nolan's Dashaway and z. Tiernan's
Glentarron mad great course, but Dash
away scarcely allowed him point in long
course, ana finished up by fine kill.
G. Dougherty's Peter Jackson and P. d.
Nolan's Dandy Jim had fine course, both
doing some splendid give and take work
jackson eventually getting the flag.
7. Iiernan's Catherine Hayes and T. J.
Cronin's Jennie G had short quick course,
which Catherine won with lots to spare.
T. j. Cronin's Cathleen and j. Cranston's
whip were let go to flyer that made Cath
leen show her great speed before she was
able to bring puss around. Whip was not
in it with her.
J. Walsh's Blanche ran bye and finished
the first round.
SECOND ROUND
Tom Moore and Juno were the first pair
In the second round. The latter was hot

was going a-begging for 81, but that seemed
not to affect his running power one bit. for

Play Boy made short work of Limerick
Lass, and won by sharp, quick course.
Pippin Jr. and Nelly Bly, were neXt:on the
list Both these dogs are well known on
the coursing fields. and Nelly would be

against Pippin almost at any odds, yet She

ment of ali and the utter disgust of her
hackers. He fairly beat her both In run
ming and working.
Dan b made a show Of Blanco, never al
lowing him point from beginning to end
of a very long run.
Dashaway and Peter Jackson were now
brought out, and from the extraordinary
turn Of speed the former dog showed in his
course against GleDfarron in the first round
he was looked upon by all as deaG-sure
thing in this course and sold at to L; but
the irony of fate seemed to follow all the
favorites The slip was a long one-too
long, indeed-and before the dogs could pos
sibly get near the hare they lost sight of her
in the depression in that portion OF the
field and consequently the dogs veered from
the line the hare took and Peter, more by
good luck than otherwise, managed to find
puss again, and before Dashaway could
possibly come up got in some two or three
points, killed and won.
Catherine Hayes made short work of
