CHICAGO, Oct. IS. = "Yo Tambien
WINS" and howl of joy went up from
ten thousand Threats at Hawthorne to-
day, as the magnificent mare, with
arched neck and splendid stride, went
under the wire in the one and one
eighth-miles race with Lamplighter
something less than a block be-
hind. when the timekeeper's watch
snapped at 2:0l4. The great trian-
gular race between the two horses
named and Eugene Leigh's Clifford had
been postponed. Mr.. Leigh thought
the track was too slow for his colt, de-
spite the fact that the other interested
owners were willing. The postpone
ment was satisfactory to Mr.. Leigh,
but was far from pleasing to the
ten or fifteen thousand people
VINO had gone to the race track to see
that particular race. and it was fin
ally decided to let 70 Tambien and
Lamplighter go mile and an eighth as
the fourth race on the card for a purse
of $500 and entrance fees of $1,000
each. Lamplighter, the crack of the
East, had many hearty supporters ID
the crowd. but they were i'll the
minority, and did not make showing,
as to noise, with the 70 Tambien peo-
pie. On her the odds were to 10, while
on Lamplighter even money was readily
taken. The placing of the coin was
free, and tonight there is Job lot of
financial stringency to be found in the
ranks of the Eastern horses hackers.
Shortly before $3.50 Lamplighter, with
Fred IaraPS ll9 pounds up, came swing
ing around the track and past the grand
stand. He was greeted with rouSing
Cheer, which was moment later for
gotten i'll the roar of applause that
struggled with the autumn breeze when
70 Tambien, under Sammy Dog
gett. pranced past the judges, her
l19 pound rider Juggling hard at the
reinS. A tally-ho coach, gay with flags
and flying bunting, was driven up along
side the track, and into it climbed an
enthusiastic crowd of Fasteners, all
happy in their faith in Lamplighter.
Promptly at $3.50 the red flag went
down, and the two great runners
thrust out their noses and settled
down to work. AS they flashed past
the grand stand, 70 Tambien's sOrrel
coat cleaned a half length ahead of her
enemy, and she staid ahead all the way
around. AT The half, Lamplighter's
rider lifted him a half length nearer
the leader, but the gain was more
than lost in the stretch. Yo Tam
bien apparently had not the slightest
thought Of losing the race. and as she
neared the wire she drew further and
further away from the Eastern crack,
until, at the finish, there was fully
three lengths between the two horses.
The Judges announced 70 Tambien'S
victory, the time, 2:014, was run up,
and the great crowd went wild with
delight. The winning jockey was
ShoWered with congratulations,
and bouquets, and the Lamp
lighter crowd thai had occupied the
tallo-ho fol ed up Its flags and silently
stole away. It, is probable that the re-
suit OF tOday'S race will materially alter
the complexion of the betting on the
coming race, as regards Lamplghter.
1t is generally believed that Eugene
Leigh will mol let Clifford run until he
is satisfied that the track is in the best
possible condition for his colt. Re-
