OWNERS WHO DESERVE SUCCESS.
Four out Of the seven favortes in the seven races
OF the afternoon secured first money. but the
bookmakers Jared far better than on Saturday and
on Tuesday. In the first race Colonel Rupperts
Counter Tenor ridden by Taral. carried great deal
Of money, both for first and second place This
was all lost, for Counter Tenor. in spite OF all
that Tara could do like cur, coward and

high prices for yearlings in his efforts to get TO-
gether stable OF the loftiest quality He has been
most liberal energetic and enterprising In his
turf undertakings. II is deplorabe that after
spending much money, after exhibiting so gen
erous and prasewOrthy spirit on the turf, ana
after trying hard to secure the best stable pos
sible he has had so many severe disappontments
and so much Ill luck. Colonel Rupert thoroughly
deserves ample success the turf, and II is much
to be hoped that he will attain II at an early day.
