its summer meeting yesterday at Ocean
View. There were two stakes on the card,
q twelve-dog puppy stake and consola-
tion stake for the dogs beaten onthe pre-
vious Sunday. .z-~. - - :
The day was all that could be desired.for
coursing purposes, but the hares. with one
or two exceptions, ran rather weak. and
consequently the conFsing was notnear as
good as that which was witnessed ON the
previous Sunday. 49, ..:.:.....>>
The coursing opened with the puppy.
stakes. The first pair of dogs called up
was L. j. CrODin,S Jack Dempsey and w.
Perry's CoOmassie. As the slipper and
judge advanced into the field whole host
Of hares jumped up, and as a result
CoOmassie broke. away from the slips. Be-
fore she could be picked up she succeeded
in killing three or four hares and, Of course,
had as many. if not more courses. which in
a great way spoiled any chance she: had of
defeatngher opponentin the regua ar course.

Star. as soon as he saw the game, and Vida,
having all the fun 10 herself, deteI Imined to:
share it with her, but she was by far too
clever for him and won the course easily.
Both dogs then went on hunt, each for.
itself, and they must have killed at least
half dozen OF hares before they were

in the round and when slipped the GIL

too clever for her and won a niee-c0urSe..
In The second round Jack Dempsey and

Peasant Lass and Climax were The next
pair, and ON being slipped the former m ade
play at once in great burstof speed, reach
fng the game two full lengths ahead of her
opponent. Climax then came UP and put in
two or three good points, but nn.the hare

immediate chase ard picked it,upin a run
and, OF course, won. IL was then noticed
that she was going lame. and on being ex-
amined it was found slie had broken a toe.
Judge Morrow and Killarney Jr.~ were
the next pair In turn, and on being slipped
the Judge made runaway race of IT., pick
Ing up tile game without even allowing it: a
turn. This result left three dogs in the
puppy stake, viz, Jack Dempsey, Peasant
Lass and Judge Morrow.
The old dogs. were then called up but
owing TO very Indifferent hares there was
scarcely good course In all of the trials.
The only creditable racing was. with T.. D.
NOlaa's Whip, which ran all through with
the dash and vein of young dog and won
the stake, $40, beating in tie finish J. r.
Wren's Cyclone.
The young dogs were then called up
Jack Dempsey against Peasant Girl. but as
the latter was going on three legs there
could be no question as TO the result They
were slipped to poor hare, and in short
time made equal points. and were again
sent after their game but the dog leaped
to the front at once and never gave his
pretty little sister show. q.
Judge Morrow then ran a. bye, and after
the half hours rest Dempsey and the Judge
were led out When IN the upper corner of
the field three or four haIeS appeared, and
Dempsey gave q sudden jump, breaking
the bolt OF the slips.
Al this point the owner of Judge Morrow,
W. Creamer. made some very insulting re-
marks to the slipper, who at once refused
to proceed with The slipping and left the
field, followed by Mr. Grace.
Some considerable time was then wasted
before another judge and slipper could be
procured to finish this. the last course Of
the day. Even ntually John Gray consented
to act, the dogs were sent off. ana Jack
Dempsey won the stake SD and a Dair of
slips presented by =. e. Canavan; Judge
Morrow took $40 and Peasant Lass s.. -.
