GRAND PRIX SAVED THE TALENT
The Track Record at Five Furlongs and Four
and one-half Furlongs Beaten-syracuse.
Peckie Merrill Colt, Grand Prix, Detroit,
and Refine dor the Winners.

About fifteen hundred persons travelled to
the Old Dominion Jockey Club race course
on Alexander Island yesterday and witnessed
some very fine racing. Those who made the
journey were very agreeably surprised when,
upon arriving at the end OF the Long Bridge,
they were informed that all local trains would
stop at the platform erected directly in front
OF the entrance to the race course. This was
great Improvement over the two previous
days, and should prove boom to the man
agement
The first race on the programme was five
furlong dash for all ages, and proved an easy
thing for Syracuse, the old horse romping
home three lengths to the good, Keystone, at
90 to l. for the place. being Il head before
Salisbury, third. Had the latter got of well
the result would undoubtedly have been Dill
ferent. As it was, Slack, who had the mount,
thinking it was no start, pulled up, thereby
losing the race, US he was practically out OF it
at the start.
The two-vear-old race. second on the card,
was won by Peckie Merrill colt, "a nice looking
colt by Albert-Peckie Merrill, and he simply
galloped home four lengths in front Of Katie
Gray, the latter length before Evelyn Carter
fllly
The third race proved to be the best of the
day. and it was only after battle royal that
Grand Prix managed to get up and land the
purse by short head from Some More, the
latter head in front OF Little Charlie. 1t
was hammer and tong finish all up the
stretch. and a blanket would easily have
covered all three. The race was run in Lob
which shows how fast the track is at present.
Detroit jumped Off in the lead in the fourth
event. and was never afterward headed, win
ming easily by n couple of lengths. A. o. IL.
was a neck before Red Dick, who came up
with rush from .sixth place, third two
lengths in front OF Postmaster. Furrow was
practically left at the post, but made up a
lot OF ground.
A six furlonG dash for 3-year-olds wound
up the days sport, the dor family again
forging 10 the front. Johnny, the fayorite,
was second, the others beaten off.
Taken all in ali j; was a good days sport,
but the bookies had all the best of the argu-
ment. as only one fayorite won. and it was
sad looking crowd that returned to the city.

Gotham Was 4 Great Disappointment to

New YORK, May 26.-The bright warm day
brought ont the usual Saturday crowd at
Grayesend to-day. and when the bugle called
the horses to the post in the first race at least
10000 people were present. The track had

Rowe got the six starters away in excellent

FAR before Gotham jumped into the lead with

had been run both Utica and WatZer moved
up and hung on to Gotham's withers for
sixteenth, when Gotham's heaN went into the

Lizard in the MiIk

Widow Mary Cummings, of $50 Court street,
called yesterday at the health Office in Brook
lyn with bottle of milk and three-inch
lizard, says the New York Sun. She said:
''On Sunday morning bought n quart of
milk at the grocery store of Charles Shitiel-
berger, adjoining my home. When 1 got
back took drink OF the milk and it seemed
all right. My sister poured out the remainder
in a dish on the table and we sat down TO
breakfast. Suddenly this little lizard crept
out of the dish and began running around
the table. We caught it and put it back in
the milk.
81 showed the milk and the lizard to the
grocer, and he explained that it went free Of
charge with the milk. and that IL any one was
to blame it was the wholesale DEALER
The milk and the lizard vera submitted to
Chemist Kent for analysis and investigation.

There was jolly crowd at the National
ball park yesterday afternoon. The George
town college team gave the University Of
1s to g. The yirginians are lot of fair ball
players, but they are not strong enough for
the crack college team.
The weather was delightful and a goodly
number Of young ladies were present. The
coIors of the opposing teams were conspicu-
GUS, and even on the right field bleachers- en-
thusiasts of the home te am waved the gray
and the blue and echoed the college yell on
the grand stand. There were not few that
wore the black and yellow. and though
greatly outnumbered they came near making
as much noise as the friends of the home
team.
The glee club sang popular songs, and as
they went off the field there was chorus OF
Eighteen to two is the score Of the game"
to the tune Of John Browns body lies

1t was not until the fifth inning that the
visitors were able to touch Carmody, and then
singles by Nelson, Worthington, and Harper
earned the two runs.
The home team began work in the first in
ming, when Harley's base on balls and hits
by E. Mahoney, Cotter, and Dowd, and Park
er's error netted three. The same number
was made in the second. McGrath got first
on balls, and Harley was hit by the pitcher,
both scoring on L. Mahoney's two-bagger.
the latter being put out trying to make third
on the hit. Cotter singled, stole second and
third. and scored on johnson. Hits by G..
Mahoney. Murphy. McGrath, and Carmody

in five runs. Four runs were made In the
fourth on singles by G. Mahoney and Murphy,
two wild pitches and another muff by Watts.
An error by Marshall. Dowd's single, and
Murphy's double netted two in the fifth.
One more was made in the eighth on Nc

NEW YORK. MAY 26.--The most important
meeting of turfmen ever held in this country
has been called for Monday evening at the
rooms of the jockey club. and if there is no
change in the situation that exists at this
writing it is more than likely that all the
jockey clubs in the United States will come
in under one central head; that there will be
national jockey club, and that all the strife
among the rival race-track magnates will
come to an end.
Representatives OF the Washington Park
Jockey Club, of Chicago; of the Saratoga Rae
ing Association, OF the Brighton Beach Rae
ing Association, and Of the Hawthorne Park
Club will meet in joint session with the con-
trolling stockholders of the Coney Island,
Brooklyn, and New York Jockey Clubs, and
come to an agreement, If possible, on all mat
tiers affecting the administration of turf AZ
fairs
The western congress OF turf clubs has al
ready decided to stand by the rules OF the
jockey club, and SO if Messrs Corrigan, Wal
baum, Engeman, and their associates decide
upon them Monday night, there will be no
further clashing of interests. and the result
will be highly beneficial to the turf.

Eyes of the TYneMriter.

Typewriters, while they have done much to
relieve labor in one way, are. an eye specialist
of considerable reputation believes, not with
out their injurious effects upon the eyes.
These effects are caused by the incessant
changing back and forth of the vision from
the manuscript to the keyboard of the instru-
ment, which is muscular work OF the most
active and trying kind. 1t is for this reason
that it is important to keep the eyes as much
as possible upon the manuscript and pay lit
tie attention to the keyboard. For artificial
light this oculist prefers new incandescent
electric lamp, shaded by faintly-ground
glass. II kerosene lamps are used for night
work, he prefers the students lamp, ranking
the ordinary flat-wick kerosene lamp as the
poorest illumination one can use.-New York

not been secured. But the articles also pro-
vide for postponement in case Of an emer-
gency, and consequently holds good until the
final arrangements are made.

He Was Battcd for Six Runs in the Ninth
Inning.
BosToN, Mass, May 26.-An unusual game
of ball was played between Boston and Wash
ington here to-day, which was finally won by
the home team when the chance Of pulling
out was almost abandoned. Maui had the
Bostons at his mercy until the last inning,
when he eased up and six runs were scored.
The visitors tried hard to retrieve themselves,
but they could score only one run. Radford
was way of in fielding, and his errors, more
than anything else, lost the game to the Bos-
TONS
The game was brilliantly contested, the
batting hard and clean, and the fielding
sharp, Ward and Joyce doing excellent work.
The batting of Hassamaer and Bannon were
the features. Out of five times at the bat,
Bannon made four hits. one of which was
home run. another a two-pagger, and the
others both struck the left field fence and
came near going over for four bases. Joyce
became impatient in the latter part of the
game, and Umpire O'Rourke fined him S25.
