strated SO clearly at the Bay District
track yesterday afternoon that disgust be-
comes a mild word to express the feelings
# many followers of the turf.
This uncertainty was demonstrated in
the last race, a mle-Leat trotting event.
1t brought out Princess, hne-looki in &
gray mare by Woolsey, the property Of
James g. Fair, uera. Pet, Erin and Aban-
teeo. On last Saturday Princess started
in a trot for the 2:2S class.
| Those knowing of her speed backed her
/ heavily and made her strong favorite.
a man named Crawlroth, who had charge
of the mare. drove her, and she was igno-
miniously beaten. La fact, she flushed
sixth and was distanced, Flora winning
the heat in 9 :27.
In yesterdays race Princess was again
made a lavorite. but the opportunity 10
| win money ON her was greater than Oh
! Saturday. She sold for $40 in the auc-
/ tons, while The field brought $50 and Erin
| SIC.
! Princess outclassed her field and trotted
| in the lead from tiagfall to finish, beating
! Pet. who finished second several lengths
back, in the coed time of 2:20H. Erin was
third. while Hera and Abanteeo were dis
! tanced.
In the second heat Crawfroth evidently
sent Princess after a record, for he urged
the mare all the way. She trotted the
mile like an old campagner, going the
route without skip or break i'll the fast
time of 2:19A. This is tho best mile that
| has been trotted at the meeting. Just
think of it. Can Mr.. Crawfroth explain
how 1t was that on Saturday Princess
could not trot a mile better than 2 80 and
three days later can negotiate one In PISA -?
| The attendance at tue races was rather
| slim and the netting WAS rather high,
The first race, the three-year-od en-
couragement dash at q mile and SIX
teenth, mad ten entries. 1t WAS found
necessary TO divide it, so Sidlett, Secret,
Bird Button, Tiptinious and Lit1y y
started in the first division.
The shrewd portion of the talent had a
good thing in the race. 1t was SidleIt, a
Good-lOOklng daughter OF Sidney. Sidlett
was an overwhelming favOrlte, bringing
$50 in the pools against So for Bird But
ton and SIS for the field.
1t was simply a eakewak for Sidlett,
who led around to the stretch by nearly
| furlong. and won walking in 2:45. Bird
Button WAS second and Secret third.
Maud Alameda, Phantom, Moorzouk
Atwood K and Wlilema were the starters
in the second division. The field sold for
$50, against $50 for Maud Alameda. an

from end to end, just as easily as Sidlett
won hers. Maud Alameda was second
ana Phantom third. Time. 2:40H.
The mile heat trotting race brought out
ItncewoGd, AYood X, Electionetta,
kodack. Humbng and Mollie Patton. III
the first betting Hunbug was favoriie,
but the talent evidently thought that he
would not belle his name, for before the
betting closed ElectoIetta was selling
fayorite at $40, against $40 for Hum bug
and $40 for the field.
Hho

WOOD third. MoilIe Patton was distanced.
it was then Electionettas turn to break,
so, after leading until we'll in the stretch,
she left her feet twice, thus resigning the
the heat 10 koklack. " ho beat her in 1874

bug got the distance flag.
The talent now hedged out a lot of their
money, making Kodiack q favorite. he
won easily from Electionetta In 2:37A,
Princewood, as usual. finishing third.
The mile and quarter dash for PAGERS
induced Dave Benton. Loupe, Matte b.
Zephyr and Pascal to come to the post
Matte Il was held in high estimation by
the talent, who installed her favorite al
So against S11 for Pascal and So for the
| field. After a fair start Dave Benton wen,
to The front, and going up the backstretch
was so far in front of his field that it
seemed that he would win to a certainty
