DON ALONZO'S VICTORY.
WINNING TIE SAPLING STAKES EASILY.

EUT TARAL WAS IN THE SADDLE, NOT MURPHY.
The heat did not prevent the attendance OF large
number Of spectators Monmouth Park yesterday, and
they found plenty OF entertainment In the races.
Don Alonzo properly ridden at last. and won the
sapling Stakes in a Canter IN fast time. When he
was ridden BY Isaac Murphy he could not win STAKE
In rs, with Taral In tho saddle he captured the
sapling Stakes under double pull In l3 81 People
who apologize for MurphyS riding forget that 10 l7"o
he was 50 drunk In an important race when he rode
Fircnzi. that he fell on the mares back. and was
suspended for thirty days by the racing authorities
He has never been OF any real value ms jockey
since. and his wretchcd riding Of Don Monzo,
Yorkvile Boc and other horses has cost the Ehret
Stable this year at least $4,000 which the stable
would have won with n competent Jockey on us
horses. Never the riding of Jockey more
thoroughly exposed than that Of Murphy by Don
AlOrszO's extremely easy success in the Hapfhs
Stakes in fast time. With Murphy mp,
this colt has been beaten. In stake
after stake by a head in slow time. With Taral mp,
Don Alonzo the Saplng stakes uuder double
pull In fast time. The inference is e,sr. But there
is not the slightest danger Of the Board OF Control
