Johnny Weber, the popular !ockey. arrived
from Los Angelica yesterday, where he has been
residing for some time with his parents.
Johnny lately joined the beuedicts, having
taken &c his companion IA life Miss Durfee Of
the southern city, daughter Of Charles Durfee,
well known IN trottiug-horse circles as the
owner Of the stallion Mckinney. The jockeys

lit is the glorious uncertainties Of horse
racing that make it such a popular sport,
then yesterdays card at the track can be
voted a great success. The management
endeayor TO cater TO all tastes, and yester-
day was no exception. Three long shots,
two fayorites, a second choice and an acct
dent should satisfy the most fastidious.
The mishap occurred in the wo-year-old
race, and that it was attended with no more
serious results than one boy suffering the
fracture Of an arm was certainly remark
able. AS the field were nearing the turn
into the stretch Marionette in some way
stumbled and fell, and Virgie a and the
Lenoke fell over her. None Of the horses
were hurt, but arose and galloped in rider
less after the field. Thomas H. Williams
Jr. showed his solicitude for the fallen
riders by mounting 10 the seat OF hack
and taking the reins drove down TO the
scene Of the accident at break-neck pace.
The only one of the jockeys TO suffer in
Jury was young Frank Coady, who had an
arm broken. The lad, who is very popular
with racegoers, seems 10 be singularly IN
fortunate, as be had but recently recovered
from severe accident caused by fall in q
race during the muddy season. Lloyd and
Bob Isom escaped with severe shaking up
The mile and a sixteenth handicap, the
event of the card, was taken by the TO
favorite Lovdal. The favorite with the
second choice, Midas, went ont In front,
racing heads apart until well around the
far turn, where Midas developed a streak
Of "yaller," and began backing up. In the
stretch he was passed by both of the other
starters, Flirtilla and McLight, the former
carrying but So pounds, getting the place
two lengths in front Of McLight, and about
the same distance behind Lovdal who ran
the distance in 1:47H, within quarter OF a
second of the coast record.
With 30 to / against him, Claudius took
the opening race at seven furlongs, in a
drive from Mulberry, who came from last
place, and was beaten but q neck. Red
Glenn, the second choice, quit badly while
leading hundred yards from the wire, and
finished third.
There were a number OF tips flying
around on the second race, fiye-furlong
scramble with twelve starters, the strong
est played of which was the one on Gypsy
Girl, who was booked from 20 down to
9 to !.
After getting away fast, she ran through
the bunch, and led into the stretch by
three lengths. She tired near the finish
and was passed by Neryosa, Blue Bell and
Lulu, the latter post favorite at TO 2.
Neryosa was first past the stand half a
length in front OF Blue Bell, the favorite

The four and half furlong race for
two-year-olds was taken very cleverly by
