fair sky. The track was deep with
mud, and full of puddles. Fast time
was utterly impossible. The card was
poor one, but nevertheless proved very
satisfactory to the talent, az four strong
favorites, one second and one third
choice proved equal TO the mud and won.
The derby, worth $500, OF which 1886
went to the winner, was taken by Lag
zarone in easy style.

MUD-RUNNERs AT GRAvEsEND.
New York, May 24.-For five days
the Gravesend track has been a sea of
mud, and the 5000 persons who were
there today were thoroughly uncom-
Portable in the driving rain. 1t was
most despsiring day, and even the at
traction of tho Brooklyn derby could not
induce large attendance. The chief
event was the derby, and OF the six
colors on the card, st. Maxim and Horn
pipe declined the issue. There was a
| wild plunge on Sir Excess, and he was
finally made the favorite, with Assignee
second. Dobbins was neglected, except
by tnose who thought he was not up 30
his proper form in his other races, ana
at the close Assignee and Sir Excess
were about equally favored. The start
was prompt and good, and Assignee tooK
the lead, with Dobbius beside him. BIZ
Excess was getting the mud behind, and
was soon completely ous oil IL. AS the
turn into the stretch was reached, Sir
Excess gave 1t up, and then Dobbins
took a fe w long strides and was soon in
the lead. From that time on it was
procession. and Dobbins won in COM
mon canter from Assignee, with Sill
Excess beaten Oft.
