Special to the MORNING. CALL.

The riding was about on a par with that
Of the first day, except that the riders
seemed to have had some practice with the
lauces. They rode at the rings with more
speed, and had learned to hold their lances
with the proper end foremost, which they
did not DO on the first occasion.
The participants were Misses Lockhart,
Reiehing Glannhan, Emery. Ward, Kemp
and QaarrelS Miss Peters, who rode the
first day, was Ill and did not ride.
After riding singly, doubly and in group
the hurdles were brought out and the horses
showed what they did not know about get
ting over them in proper style. With few
exceptions they baked, and were only IN
duced to 60 over by a liberal application of
the whip. Then an exhibition Of expert
riding was given for special prize.
Upon consultation the judges made their
awards as follows: First prize. Miss Clara
Reichling; second prize, Miss Efie Klemp;
third prize, Miss L. E. Ward; fourth prize.
Miss Emery; fifth prizA, Miss Frances
Glannhan; sixth prize. Miss Della Lock
hart First Juvenile prize, Bessie QuarTels.
The srecial prize for the most expert
rider was won by Miss Efde Klemp.
Last of the BanGtaiIs.
a large crowd saw the last of the bang
this afternoon. The weather was cool, fine
and delightful. The track might have been
better. Tie feature of the day was the
heavy betting and the downfall of the clever
division. After their losses of yesterday it
was very bitter for them to have to swallow
tie pill they got this afternoon. With enc eX-
cepuon, the third race On the afternoons
card. in which only two started. horsemen
were 1t fault. They were kept guessing all
the time and tley never guessed it right.
1t was Gas o'clock before the fourth heat
in the fTee-for-all pace was decided. and it
was then so dark that the horses were
barely visible, and the race had TO be post
pOHed until tomorrow.
The running races, notwithstanding the
upset Of the favOrites, were splendidly
contested, and better days sport could
not be desired. The starting again was
above criticism, and every event was got off
sharp on time, each 10 a magnificent start.
Star ter Tom Jones is entitled to another
word of praise.
First Race.
The first race was the Autumn handicap,
one mile, for two-y ear-olds. Floodg gate ruled
faForile bat there was plenty of money for
Castro and Grandee. At the fourth attempt
Tom Jones sent them on their journey to a
dead even start. Hill made play on the
favorite, Castro lying second length be-
hind, and 4 like distance away vas the gray
colt. Thus they ran until nearing the half,
where Grandee and Castro ran right up to
FlOOdgate and they were punched in the
lower turn. Floodgate drew away again
and was first into the hOmestreteh. Castro
here showed signs of distress. Sullivan

every pole winning one landed the race in
= big galop by five lengths from Grandee,
who beat Castro two lengths for the place.
The time, 1:42A, was very good for young
sters.
