not in il, as Orland won the third heat ana

standing that he had beaten her last

and finished on break. The Paris mutual

Third Race.
The great free-foT-all pace now attracted
the attention Of the spectators Our Dick
sold choice at $50, Tom Ryder brought Sl2.
and PlugEett Princess ALICE and Dl. Swift
were bunched in the field az IS. There
were several treSOme scores, and when
they were tapped of Ryder had a lot the
worst Of 1t. Plunkett was half a length in
front of the fayorite. be a Ike distance
ahead Of DR.. Swift, as they passed the quar-
ter. At the half Preached in :06), 0nr Dick
and Punkett were pacing like a donole
team. aud from tina. point they raced even
~ TO The turn fer home. Down the stretch
they came nose and nose. "Jehoshaphat,
how they are g0lDg! exclaimed one Of the
excited timers, and so they were. 1t made
one Zzy TO look All them. Mr.. 0ttinger's
grand horse, Our DICK, gradually drew
away from Piunkett, and won in
splendid style. Heating handling the
Ieins like the true artist he is.
A great cheer went up when the wonderful
tine of PIP was announced. II was really
better than W. Woods 211A over the kite
shaped track last Monday, as it was paced
over the regulation.
The talent now had to pay $50 for Our
Dick against SIG the entire field. There
was a lovely even start, Our Dick and
PlUnkett showing the way TO the half-mile
pole, where the former broke very badly,
and Heating could not get him settled down
Until all the others had passed him. The
heat now resolved itself into match be-
tween Plunkett and DR.. Swift. and a pretty
tuSsle It was. Finally Corey and his
Doctor" landed the heat handilY by an
open length in 2:13. Our Dick finished last.
Tie cry was S25 now for Ottinger's Cham
pion against S. the balance. Newton drove
Tom Ryder out in front, and he led DR..
Swift length at the quarter. the favOrite
on the DOCTORS wheel. Dick was second TO
Ryder at the half, and soon after he assumed
the lead, which he maintained to the wire,
pacing the mile in 2:I3k, going like hum
mlng-bird. jonathan made great drive
with Princess Alice, but she broke at the
kite track crossing. just as she seemed 10
have show Of winning the heat.
Then speculation practically ceased. The
fourth heat and race was a mere walkoVeT
for the favoTite; not one Of the band could
live with him-he waltZed in by eight
lengths-Tom Ryder finishing second. Plum
kett was distanced for running. The race
was fitting companion to McKnneY's great
tT0t yesterday, for both are the fastest seen
on this years California circuit.
