Off Two Purses.
Piguante, Haymarket, Faro, Prince
Henry and Border Lassie Were
Yesterdays Winners.

The fields ruled small yesterday. four oil
the five events having only SIX starters
but the finishes were, with one eXceptlon'
close enough, and there were also haro
fights FOR place and show honors.
a. B, Spreckels' colors were twice car
ried first past the wire viz: in the first and
last events of the day. Piduante, chest
nut flly, by Flambeau out Of Phoebe An
dersou, won the first race of half mile foT
two-year-olds in handy style from the
favorite, Lady Jane. and Borden LassIe.
that game and speedy daughter OF imp.
Cheyiot and Cosette landed the last event
run over the Futurty course in gallant
fashion, after being collared and appa-
rentIy beaten just past the eighth pole.
She came again in rare style and won In a
desperate drive by a head, owing to heT
sheer gameness. Felix Carr rode both
winners and had big hand in their win
ming.
There were two mile races yesterday,
the favorita in both instances being
beaten Crawford was a strong first
choice in the first of them, being backed
heavily at even money and to .. with
Esperance substantially supported at twos.
Morton was at fives and George Roses
grand finish, heads separating the quartet.
Haymarket gaining the verdict from Nor
Ton by the shortest of them. The last
named, had Williams made his effort 4
tri6e sooner, would surely have Won.
The other mile race saw Ragner hot
favorite at to 8, but she had 10 be con
tent with third position, behind Prince
Henry and by Dy, the former winning
easily by two lengths.
The other event. third on the pro
gramme, six furlong race, fell 10 Faro
by scant length from Nictress, who
nearly furnished the surprise OF the day,
another example OF the careful and CON-
petent handling the PIeasanron string is
getting under young Joe McCarty's per-
sOnal supervision and work.
Barney Schneider received congratula-
tioDs on all sides on his having secured a
lease of Wildwood. 1t is understood he
paws $4,000 for two years, and gives c. A.
