VI. Tiernan's Catherine Hayes Takes
First HonUrs.
The meeting at Newark yesterday was
truly a representative one. At 10 cnursing
meeting for many months, indeed it might be
SAID years, has there been such a gathering
OF the genuine Representatives Of the leash
as the crowd that met at Newark Park
yesterday. About one huudged and fifty
congrtgated on the grounds. The day at
first seemed little threatening, but
toward noon the sun shone out and more
perfect day could scarcely lie found in tie
wide world outside California than that
which then followed.
The grounds Of the park we're simply
lovely, covered as they were with n CARPET
of grass Of emerald hue, richly intermiugled
with daisies pied and vioets blne.
And l5dy-5naCkS ali silver white
Ana cuckoo buds OF yellow hue
Did paint the meadow " lth delight.
The scene was one not easily forgotten.
and however keen might be the desire Of
many Of the cOurSerS to see the sport Of the
day commence, so really charming were the
Whole surroundings that il was some con-
siderable time before tie field officers sue
Ceeded in bringing the crowd within the
area prescribed for spectators.
The stake was not large one, only eight
dogs being entered for it, but many Of them
were the cracks of the greyhound kennels,
consequently great interest was taken in
city. There was $50 match also to be de-
cided On thls occasion between VI. Tiernan's
Wel-kuOwn dog GlenfarrFn and I. j. Gro
mans bitch Kathleen. Both these dogs
being considered among the best in the
State of course gave additional interest to
yesterdays meeting.
The hares did not run so well as was ex-
pected, at all events during the first half Of
the day, but in the second half and during
the many matches that were run after the
regular cOuTsing was over, they amply
made up for any Of the shortcomings OF the
first lot that were met with, and some very
fine trials were witnessed.
The pair in the match were the first called
up and immediately Glenfarrow and kath-
leen were taken In charge by the slipper
He had scarcely gone twenty yards when
hare started up, aad both d0gS were slipped.
The red dog took the lead and continued in
front for about three hundred yards, when
Kathleen closed up, and, by the swerving
of the hare, got first turn. A nice bit OF
give-and-take work then followed, and be-
swern them puss came 10 grief. The Judge
declared it undecided, and ordered the dogs
again to slip. A second hare was soon
found, but IN this course the bitch was
clearly too quick in all her movements ard
when the hare fell she was good winner.
The first round of the stake WAS then
commenced by RarenswOOd and FL Rey.
The former was the faYOrite at to /, but
ished the hackers OF RavenSwO0d, for to
their utter surprise he beat his opponent
handsomely in a shOrt-run course.
Woodsidc and Berkeley Lass were ths
next pair and when the dogs were Slipped
the Lass immediately made play, and il
looked asif she was going 10 upset Wood
side, but on nearing the game the latter
spurted, and in very few seconds passed
the Lass, and after a few feiuts killed puss
and won.
Whip ran bye.
Cath Hayes and Dexter were the next
pair slipped, but the big dog was in no con-
dtioD, and Catherine easily vanquished rim.
In the second round FL Rey and Woodside
met, but Ell Roy was too fast, and the hare
being somewhat of a poor one Fl Rey won
after a short spin.
Catherine Hayes and Whip were then
handed to the slipper, and in few moments
a good hare went flying before them. WHIP
went off with grear speed two or three
lengths before Catherine, but on wrenching
the hare he came terrible cropper, and
that settled it. Catherine having the rest of
the course TO herself.
The final course was then left to the two
flyers Catherine and Ell Rey, and consider
able interest was takec by tile friends Of
both dogs IN the result, pools being sold in
great numbers.
After the usual half hours grace both
dogs we're called up and bare was sent
away from the escape in the northwest cor
ner of the field. The dogs were let go in a
good slip, and Immediately Ell Rey went to
the front by two lengths and on nearing the
game Catherine spurted strongly, and just
then the hare swer red toward her and both
dogs came on the game very near together.
Here the dog lost ground in the turn, but the
bitch, being a close worker, came like a top.
wrenched and turned the hare and drove it
under the escape, aud the judge declared her
the winner.
The course was a very unsatisfactory one
for a final and was in no sense trial of
what either of the dogs could do. That
they are both good ones there cannot be a
doubt, aud whenever they meet again each
will have many hackers
