RUNS OF THE RACERS.
Good Cards offered at Brighton Beach
and Saratoga.

Brighton Beach Race Track, July 23.-
The weather was clear and pleasant here
to-day There was percepHble diminu-
ton in the attendance, however, due
ID largely to Saratoga rivalry, number of
regulars having decided TO take an inning
at the spa. The talent played in luck for
the two first races and were in high
feather, but afterward they did not think
they knew quite so much.
South Side was made an odds-on favor
lite in the third race. He was backed as
II the race were over, but the faithful did
not get a run for their money, as their
choice got left at the post. Dauric set
out as the taskmaker, and kept it up uu
I'll the last sixteenth post, when King
Gold, a TO |, shot, forged to the front
and won the race by nose.
The faithful again went wrong in the
fourth race, which was won by Billy S.,
10 ] chance and they were also hit
hard IN the sixth race, when logan. an
oddson favorite, finished in the ruck, the
honors being carried of by Micmac
Queen, a 10 to /, shot,
The talent, though, reaped some salts
faction out of the result of the sixth race.
Llfeboat, the favoFite, was pushed very
hard by George Dixon throughout the
race, and the faithful were kept on the
anxious STOOL but they gave sigh Of re-
llet when the decision was announced
That their chance had won by head.
