Great Sport and a Sem
SatiOn or Two at
Brighton.
FIZzLE OF THE SWEEPSTAKES.
Starter Rowe Causes a Little
Surprise In One Send-Off.

There was some excellent racing at Brtgh-
loh yesterday, and the people went home
highly pleased with the sport. In the star
event OF the day, that In which Longstreet,
Reclare Prince Royal ana Tea Tray started,
the race was very interesting, the horses run
ming In close bunch nearly the whole OF the
distance. Then Longstreet drew out and
won handily. Houston, Bellevue and Tanner
finished In line In the third race, and only
the practised eye OF the judge could separate
them Many thought Tanner had won, and
many thought Houston was first, but the race
was 100 close to admit OF any ones question.
Ing the decision OF the judges. Miss Colville,
Gertle ID. and Alarm Belle also finished almost
on line for third place In the sixth race, and
mere the judges had TO decide again, for the
public could no. separate them. The funny
part OF this race was that neither OF the
Jockeys riding wanted to he third The last
race also was of the sensational order. Gany-
mede WAS winning by lengths, when his
Jockey started to pull up and Kern almost
nipped him on the post. Taken altogether, It
was great days sport, even II the favorites
did 90 down.
As was predicted in this column yesterday,
the great sweepstakes race between Tenpy,
Longstreet, Eon and Riley will nzzle out.
Tenny's owner refuses to start him, and that
settles the whole business. The Brighton
Beach Association has withdrawn its otYer.
and so far as II Is concerned, the matter Is At
an end. Tenny and the other cracks may
meet Racine, however, later on.
Mr.. FoIhall Keene is TO be congratulated on
the singulaIly appropriate name he has
chosen for the spendthrift-K Kapanga my.
She is sister TO the great Kingston, and Mr..
Keene has named her Queenston.
Young Castle rode very pretty race on
Cascade yesterday, and won his maiden race,
as did Cascade himself. AT the head OF the
stretch Castle drew his whip. IL slipped from
his hand and flew up In the air. Castle stood
up IN the stirrups and reached for It as Il FELL
nnd missed IT, Nothing daunted he sat down
and urged Cascade, slapping, her with one
pretty race by neck.

horses IN the second race yesterday. They

Olotting out the blunder In the second.
