p,erre Lorllard has had few successes on the Vl
s,s year that IL was pleasant surprise TO almost
.very one at Jerome Park TO see the famous OLD han

us slly Kildeer won the Elizabeth Stakes Tor thee
r.Srod lilies, and his gelding Srocco eaptureu l"o
, race Mr. Lorillards trainer however. feared lia'
reckon would defeat Kildeer, and consequently Mr.
Io4llard backed his FLY for place only ana RAINIER
,,r,idly at that Reckon the favorite ana Neile
or second choice. By the conditions Of the race oo'
we're giving Kildeer ten pounds, and she won eaSnS.
7ne heavy SPECTATORS seemed to forget that III 'e
M,umouth Oaks on July g. Kildeer at 1l2 pouhuS' was
ooud to Nellie BLY,, who with Taral up carried 1l0 -

Reckon at III perfectly safe And she dld. oo~e
hasty inferences too hatering TO Reckon had been
drawn from Reckon's with Potomac In the BaThe

Great one and Hamilton took things easily IN that race
Then too Reckon has had great deal Oh hard racing

Ii was a delightfully."- cool and pleasant July al'er

snactators was larlentably small. The Harlem Rail

II Is reported that Jacob Rupert. the well-known
49, a. roinc into racing on an extensive scale. he
will he heartily welcomed The turf needs far larger
number of owners Of ample means. whose wealth VIII

All Is peace now between the McLewee Stable and
lanes Mclaughlin. The famous Jockey has signed

sum Of $500.
The racing began with an upset. Long Dance was
,,s tovorite in the first race at odds on, but was
beaten with amazing ease by captain Browhs Dig
strapplng s-striding colt May Win who looks as
IL he might develop into weIl-furnlsheu ana lor-
rnidable animal Kingmaker was poor third and mas
fallen far below the promise that he indicated at enc
time.
Deuuth carried of the Harvest Handicap without
The least difficulty and his advantage over Raceland
Of a dozen pounds in the weights made him an over
rhelning favorite. The betting opened at TO on
and when the horses started 1t was 3 TO on MS
time Demuth was ridden judciOusly, without choking
the speed ont of him by strangDg pull in the early
part Of the journey Murphy let him go on steadily
a: his own pace and Raceland could never get near
him The time was fast for this traCk-2 Ia "a
Ha'penny ridden by Murphy was the favonte at
10 on in the fourth race but came in weak third
10 Fremont and y. Strauss strangely named colt
Aciloam CIajOlca spelled backward. John DAILY and
his friends felt sure Of winning on Hapennys Morris
Park form But the colt probably missed Bergen, who
rides him 20 perfection, while Murphy was never on
his back before. But Fremont has plenty OF speed
now and Aciloiam Is improving.
Murphy however, rode two winners Demuth and
Silver Prince The latter was successful favore at
odds on but Mr. sass pressed him hard, and possibly
might have beaten him II Taylor had not accidentally
dropped his whip, mishap which the judges called him
up 10 explain.
Patrocles was rapid Splinter when Davis Hall
owned him, and A J. JOyner, his present possessor,
made no secret of his faith that Patrocles had re
covered al Of his old speed. He was backed heavily
both in the city poolroons and at the track. But
srocco outran him ceverly, and he swerved so badly
near the finish that he lost second place 10 Daisy Wood
ruff. Ii is rarely safe 70 put much confidence in
cheap Splinter in his first after so long retire
ment.
sirocco was entered to be sold for 81 500 The bid
ding on him a. sos, which he was bought In
