taken in SuppoSing it was when he
siewed the array of bright. Interesting
excited feminine faces in the long row
OT boxes, and many of them were there
to back their Judgment. Indeed, the
ladies have been unusually fortunate
as rule, and several st. Anthony bill

But today will be ladies' day again.
and woe to the bOokmakers, if the fair
ones are as fortunate as they have been
the past days of the week.
The handicap was somewhat Of dis
appointment owing to the fact that all
the bang tails that had entered drew out
save Jugurtha and Eli KindIg. This
gave the former a tolerably easy thing
of it. although had Freeman saved Eli
for the finish instead of forcing him to
extend himself aQuarter of mile away.
the result might have been different.
e Kindig is a spurter, and Jugurtha is
quite the opposite. lie is a staid colt
and slayer, but when it comes to flying
over a short distance he is not in it. AS
ii was, kindig made the finish eXcitingly
close.
There were two surprises yesterday.
The first c; m in the very first event,
when Maud outran Corinne Kinney
and Alice ID at the very finish, when
Alice d had carried the bulk of the
money. Corinne seemed to be the
prime favorite with horsemen and was
out to win, but there can be no QueS-
ton that pretty Alice was also due to
win if she could. 1t was driving and
sensational finish. and the same can be
said of two other events. 1SSie 0,
backed mostly by stable boys, because
they knew she was as fine as silk, beat

and then Torrent defeated Forest and
Goldstone III order by a nose and a
length respectively. As whole, the
day was a delight. There was but one
: real walkover, and that was won by the
great Van Buren,. and he ran at pro-
hibitiye odds i'll the betting.
The train service is improving, much
to the pleasure of the patrons of the
track. For the first time during the
meeting the train was landed in time to
witness the first event without running
post haste from station to grand stand,
and ill the evening the train did not
wait for darkness to close in before re-
turning. Ii this service is continued
the attendance will be much larger.

parse. However, Alice ID was the
general favOrite, and some money went
in on Van because CT his run the other
day. while IronrOd found abundance of
friends in the place betting. Maud b
was not well thought of and she carried
but little money at 20 to l, and even
greater odds at times: Crab Cider was
backed on tip at to l, but there was
no playing on the others.
Alice ID got Il fine start and began by
showing the way from the flag. Maud
B came second and with a rush was on
with Crab Cider third. Around the
final turn Crab Cider ran his length.
He spufted and came after Maud so fast
that cry went up ali along the line,

him. Alice ID still held the coign of
vantage as the stretch was entered, and
Maud B, running handsomely, came
third. 1t was whipping finish. Maud

whalebOne and spur and won 10y half
length over Corinne Kinney, who fol.

Alice ID came iii third.
