RACES ABOVE THE AVERAGE
Alexander Island Events Productive Of
Close and Interesting Contests.
FORM FOLLOWERS FARED WELL
While Only Two First Choices Wore Success
full, Yet Those Who Played According to
Form Cashed on Both Kenyon and Florist
Odd Socks Was the Upset Of the Day.

The sport at the Alexander Island course
yesterday was highly interesting, and the
hackers OF form came out ahead on the day.
While only two favorites won yet in the first
and third races the wrong horses were made
the choices. Bee Line made his first appear
ance at the track in the opening event at 6 to
5, while as good as 8 to l was laid against
Florist. The latter led all around and won
easily from Vexation flly.
In the second race Little Alice was backed
to to and won handily at the end from Pot
towattomie. who ran wonderfully different
race from the last time out. Detroit was
plunged on to win .he third, while the best
horse in the race-Kenyon-w begging at
to 2. The latter got off badly but took COM
mand In the stretch and won with his mouth
wide open from Detroit.
The withdrawal of Naruna left but four to
start in the fourth, and Belle Blackburn was
deservedly made the choice, although Doc
Birch was backed down bet The 1avorlte
led from start to finish, and won handiiy from
Birch. In the closing event DIR. Helmuth and
Senator closed at 2 to ! each, while Odd Socks
opened at 15 to / and was played down to 8
to l. Senator led to the paddock, when odd
Socks got up and won cleverly by half
length from Senator, while Emily W. just
beat DR.. Helmuth for the place.
Tho attendance was much above the aver
age and the betting lively. Summaries:

TAIL.ENDERs BArTL1NG FOR PLACE.

Senators Won the Opening Game from
the Louisvilles with Ease.
The threatening weather yesterday had
much TO do with the small Saturday crowd at
National Park, but the thousand or more
present witnessed fine game. The dlstin-
guished Colonels from the Blue Grass State
had four new men, and the new leaguers did
themselves proud, Lutenburg covering first
in fine shape.
After the fifth inning the game went along
at a lively rate, and the hour and forty min
utes consumed IN its playing IVES highly de-
lighftul to the regulars on the bleachers.
Col. Pieffer changed to short with ex-senator
Richardson. Both men played their positions
in good STYLE and the latter was given an
ovation the first time at the bat. Joyce made
his reappearance, and his presence seemed
10 put new life into the men
Stockdale was in the points for the Senators
and ne was steady at critical times. With the
bases full il the third inning and only one
out he was especially cool and Lutenburg
went ont on 4 short fiy to Sebach and Rich
ardson's hard hit ball was felded to first in
time 10 prevent any scoring. Abbeys hitting
and Richardson's fielding were the features OF
the game, while young Dir. Clark gave great
exhibition of sprinting on his home run hit.
The locals began TO score in the first inning,
and after ShieSeck was fielded out at first
joyce went TO base on balls, and on Hem
ming's error Hassamer was safe. Abbey then
hit for a home run, and the inning closed with
three runs Hassamer singled in the third
and scored on Abbey's long double. The lat
ter stole third and scored on McGuire's out at
first.
In the fifth Abbey hit for two bases and
scored on Pfeffer's drop OF McGulre's fly.
The latter allowed himself 10 be put out at
second to end the inning.
The Colonals scored their first run in the
fifth. Hemming's drive to right bounding over
the fence.
In the seventh Richardson hit for base,
and on Cartwright's error he went to third,
scoring on Browns single. After Clark went
out Pfeffer reached first, and, with the bases
full, Flaherty hit 10 Schiebeck and Pfetfer
went out at second.
After Henming was retired in the ninth
Brown singled and crossed the plate on
Clark's home run hit to right, which Roar

of Prizes POSTPONED.

Of Prizes Postponed.
The attendance at Gonzaga fair and festival
last night was unusually large. The threaten
ing weather did not have the effect. as was
feared, of keeping patrons away, and the
number present probably reached {, 900.
Ths booths were all tnronged throughout
the evening, and the dancing pavilion was
crowded to its fullest capacity. The bowling
alley had more than its usual compile ment Of
visitors, many of whom participated in the
exciting sport. Being the last night for the
Midway Plaisance, the attractions drew there
largely increased patronage.
The swings and the flying horses also
netted an increase of receipts. The athletic
features were Of unusual interest, since sew
erai prizes in all-around contests for the Y.
NJ. c. C, were depending upon the results. A
broad jump, high jump, and one-mile
bicycle race were among the attractions,
added to which was a race for boys. distance
one-fourth of mile.
The award of special prizes announced to
take place last evening was postponed until

that in the bowling contest, will be awarded.
and the names Of the winners announced at
10 o'clock tomorrow evening from the grand

ing contest cannot be awarded until Wednes-
The programme for Monday evening prom
ises to excel in interest that Of any previous
evening. 1t will include cake-walk, open
to all; a slow mile race, also open to all, and

athletic list will doubtless draw large
crowd. Entries in each OF the contests may
be made, and should be recorded In advance,
with s. A. Beadle, NJ. F. Halloran, or G. c.
Callan, who have charge.
The energy and assiduous attention of
those In control of the Y. NJ. G. c. table have
resulted in netting larger amount in re-
ceipts than was anticipated, and the man.
ayers are justly proud of their success. The
ladies who have so ably contributed to this
result have the thanks OF the club. The fair,
as originally planned, closed last night, and
season tickets expired by limitation.
Much of the credit for the success OF the
fair is due to Mr.. Joseph Hummer, who has
