carried off the Twin City Oaks purse, at
a mile and an eigth, with the utmost
ease. The track was still heavy, al
thong in surprisingly better condition
than had been anticipated by votaries
of the racing course. This accounts,
in measure, for the fact
that the distance was not made in bet
ter time. 1t required 1897, but 70
Tambien ran under a strong pull
throughout. True, the only other can
didateS were Natalie and Lillian Bea-
trice, but 1t should be borne in mind
that the beautiful daughter of Joe
Hooker-Marion was giving weights in a
liberal degree. To be specific. she car
ried 122 pounds. while Lillian only had

betting was made with 70 Tambien out.
and then Natalie was played some at 2
to and Lillian Beatrice at to ). Some
bookmakers placed these two in the
field and made the odds 10 10 l against
them. But Yo Tambien could beat
them out with top weights and all and
romp the entire distance. Such was the
result, with Natalie in second place.
AS whole, it was not favorite's day.
They were laid low in three instances.
The slate was broken in the very first
event. l. j knight came to the track
with proud record and pedigree that
must inspire confidence, but he proved
a dismal failure, and the talent was
driven almost distract by his quit
ting like a dog, while PiccolO. we'll
bred and All available candidate, it is
true, won hands down, and Knight did
not even run to a mark. He simply quit.
Coda, prime favorite, beat out
Linda, Prize and Dave G with ridiculous
ease. but the odds were such that the
that she carried. SullrosS, so well
thought of, and Kildare, who made
sensational race earlier in the meeting
against Costa Rica, Pat Conley and a
good field. disappointed host of ad-
mirers. Kildare had defeated Costa
Rica SO easily that one would be dubbed
foolish to play Costa Rica against him,
and still Costa Rca won yesterday just
as easily, and neither SullrosS nor Kill
dare showed up. To go back, Sullross
had also defeated Costa Rica, Carmen
and a good field. But fate stood i'll all
its CHASTITY array, defiant to the judg-
ment of the talent yesterday, as
was again eXempiified in the
race wherein Cevertop, the pride
of the Kendall stable, and the mate of
70 Tambien, was defeated in mile
race by Bolivar Buckner in .1:47. No
one could have dreamed that the great
Ceverton could have given such an eX-
hibition of abject helplessness, but so it
was. Had even Brown Idle, a 100 to l
chance been driven out, the chances are
that Thorpes mount would not have
shown. Bolivar Buckner won with
Carroll Reid III the place by fully six
lengths. This was not because the
track was exceptionally bad. but be-
cause the horse either had no heart, or
Thorpe went to sleep ell route. This
problem must be left 10 the public to
solve
Roman had run well for his class at
Hamline. He chased l orient and Forest
TO the wire i'll their sensational race, and
he had shown excellent bursts of speed.
Naturally he was the choice of the
talent. but third place was as good as he
was able to get yesterday against such
outside performers as Dave PulSlfier
and Bret Harte. 1t was day of sur
prises, and the talent will now begin to
take chances on long shots and pay less
attention to breeding and past perform
aDceS in this meeting.
The Meeting Continued a Week.
The season has been success all in
dll-d plOHOuUCGu OuCCCoS-ClSC Vic
management would not have concluded
to prolong the meeting another week.
Yesterday the announcement was bull
defined that the races will be continued
throughout next week. 1t IS known
that several stables of excellent racers
will be shipped at once from Chicago
and other places to start for the
rich purses that the club will
offer next week. The mere dec
Iaration in Chicago yesterday brought
numerous kilograms for stable space,
and the patrons of the track will hail
the announcement with delight when
they learn that score or more of the
purse and stake winners of other tracks
Horses that have never ran here, will
be started next week.
A notable incident Of the day was the
bidding on Costa Rica in the selling
race. She had been entered at $500
only, but she was run up to 5000, or s40O
over her entrance sum. and she was
bought by her owner.
k Talents First Break.
