most desirable point of view. The
mount board showed that but four
horses would start, and there was gem
eral regret for the loss of Chief Justice,
who had many admirers. The Kendall
stables scratched Ceverton to save en-
trance money. sure of the victory with
the peerless colOr-bearer of Smiths fine
string. Shortly after the call the crowd
rose up. the better to view and greet the
entrance of the Derby candidates.
Leon was the first to appear, with Clark
up. The colt Is bright bay,
rather small and very showy, but
winner from the start. Freeman then
dashed by with Buckner, and the red
polka-duts in white provoked general
cheer. Newton, the dashing son of
Billet and NaSSar, was heartily cheered,
BrlttOn getting special round from his
previous victories of the day. Last
came the wonderful filly, selected by
every one as the victor of the day. The
beautlf I'll three-year-Old, with her chest
nut coat cleaning and her shapely head
tossed proudly up, was evidently in the
pink of form, and though there was no
sign of nervousness, 1t took all Charley
IhOrpe's muscle to keep her quiet. Be-
fore the crowd had ceased its applause
the quartette was away up the stretch
and lining up at the three-quarter pole
for the start. Not sound came from the
vast crowd as the four animals wheeled
into place. They're off?'' shrieked a
voice. But it was breakaway, New
ton standing still.
Now They're Off.
Again they lined up and then the flag
fell to a beautiful start. Contrary to
her usual custom, Yo Tambien did not
jump to the front. Leon took that posi-
ton and wlseacres shook their heads
over the unknown quantity" At the
head OF the stretch, Yo Tambien, who
was tearing at ThOrpe's arms in her
eagerness, pushed out and assumed
command, and when the bunch passed
the stand they were strung out in single
file. YO Tambien leading Leon by
length and Newton and Buckner fol-
lowing in order. The pace was hot
| around the turn and Newton soon tired,
surrendering 10 both colts behind him
before the quarter pole was reached. At
that point Buckner and Newton had
brief tuSSle, and the latter surrendered
second place. Down the back stretch
they thundered, Yo Tambien running
easy under double wrap and leading
by an open length. No change was
shown at the mile. At the head of the
| stretch Freeman made bold dash
with whip and spur, and Buckner re-
sponded with burst that landed his
| nose level with Tambien's saddle girth.
Thorpe had picked his ground and was
carrying the filly on the outer edge,
where the ground was higher and driver.
| AT Buckners nervy challenge he shook
out one wrap and drew his whip. The
| catgut never fell on the game filly,
which responded nobly. Three leaps
opened gap of length between her
tail and Buckner's nose, in which relat-
I've positions they drew down the
stretch and passed under the wire. The
| great racer was never in distress and
actually won under pull. Newton
ambled in third by fifty lengths. beaten
Off. while Leon was distressfuiiy wan
dering along at the head OF the stretch.
