Los Angeles herald., 1892-10-08

There was no end OF chaff over this race
and everybody was in good humor
After three or four Intellectual attempts
away they went again, and Butler sc
sail for the land of victory. His patl
was far from being an easy one, how
ever, and Pasadena Belle kept him yer,
busy to the half mile, where che CAV,
up the chase, and old Draco came righ
along like blue streak. The rally dowr
the home stretch was agood one, bu
Butler had q little steam left ir
and won by two lengths in 1855. L
was now dollars to doughnuts on Butler
$5 on the field being the best obtainablt
against $25 for the hero of the spoons
1t was far from being a walk-away fol
him even in the last heat, however
Nick Covarrubias went at him with The
old stud and broke at the quarter, &C
fast was the battle. Then up came 9
horse called Fred and gave him Jolt to
the halt-mile pole; and by the time he
was pumped out and ready to send fol-
! the bellows-mender, here was old Draco
again. The last half mile was hard
enough, for Draco kept coming all the
time but Ben carried him to q
break at the draw gate and won
the deciding heat of the race and
first money in 2:38. This closed
up everything but the hurdle race, for
which Shelah was decided favorite. The
hurdles we're covered with cypress brush
80 inches high, and, in the earlier part
part of the day, would have been just
what was wanted. But it was about :l5
when the race was run and the horses
would have seen them palmer had they

hue. They got off all together and She
lah took every hurdle in the race, while
those who came behind her knocked
them down. She won very cleverly and
had pretty finish through the
stretch with Fanny. At the last hurdle
but one Ngaro came to grief and threw
his jockey, McGlorick, who sustained a
fracture Of the collar bone. We append

ToDAY's PROGRAMME
has four races, the chief of all being the
$4,000 purse free-for-all trotters, for
which Shylock, Richmond Jr. and Nc
Kinney are to start; and for which the
son OF Alcyone is deservedly first choice.
They may beat him, but it is far from
probable. Richmond will probable take
the first heat, and then cold Mac" as
Durfee calls him, will 20 on and win the
race.
Mr.. Edward Ryan, yesterday. an
nounced that he would give purse of
$500, entrance free, for Silkwood and
Our Dick, $1,000 to first and $500 to Sec
ond horse. His object in doing this was
to give Mr.. Willets the benefit of a
single-handed race, as that gentleman
and his friends have complained of a
collusion in Wednesdays race. Mr..
Willets did not want any of it, and will
ship his horse home today.
