CALIFORNIA HOUNDS BEATEN
Last Day Of the Interesting Contests
on the Plains of South
Dakota.

HURON, S. r., Oct 1.-THE last day of
the coursiDg for the first American Water
loo cup was as perfect one as any lover OF
coursing could wish for. It rained quite
hard last night. making the ground nice
and soft. The hares ran like demons ex-
cept in few instances. and led the hounds
a merry chase.
Gilkirk and Diana had good courses in
both instances. Minneapolis had extra
hard courses. st. Claire did not run with
a vim and disappointed the spectators, as
he was looked upon by the talent as sure
winner. The Alameda kennels have been
very unfortunate with their entries, as
San JOAQUIN and Emin Pasha had to be
withdrawn and Wayfarer was far from be-
ing Sin it,
Glenkirk stock is on the top heap and
among coursers it is all Glenkirk. Mr.
Peyton has added five to his string, hav-
ing bought Master Glenkirk, Charming
May, Banker and two puppies. 81. Perigo
has bought q fine bitch puppy out of
Royce's Canary and Jim of the Hill, and
expects in time to have Waterloo win
ner.
Following are the courses as run:
w hbC1iOO CQpY iOultA1 IACo--Ss n IlOOIIl-
sons Diana and NJ. Aliens st. Claire ran
beautifully worked course, st. Claire
leading to the hare, taking two turns and
placing Diana, who also did lot of work.
Diana won the course. The hare escaped.
Warren and Fish's Master Glenkirk and
Melrose and Durbins Gilkirk ran finely
worked course. Master Glenkirk led to
the hare, placing Gilkirk, when 1t was give
and take, and after q long and finely
worked course Gilkirk made the kill and
won the course.
Finale. A Robinson's Diana and Mel
rose and Durbin's Gilkirk ran an unde-
cided short course, a mixed kill. They
were put in the slips Immediately and
slipped to crackeriack who led them all
over the field. Gilkirk led, took posses
sion and Diana was never in it. Gilkirk
turned the hare and Diana made the kill,
one-sided course.
Purse, second ties-Woodhaven kennels
Dakota and Eastern coursing kennels
Trilby-Trilby was withdrawn, as she had
an injured foot. Dakota ran with Bed OF
| Stone good course, but lost it. The jack
escaped
| d. o. Miiler's Sunol ran bye with w
c. Peytons Flying Buck. Buck led to the
hare, took two turns, placing Sunol, who
made three points. when Buck passed him
out and worked the hare all over the field
! clearly outstaying and outfooting Sunol
and winning easily. The hare escaped.
J. H. Rew's Ragnarok and r. L. Donald
were slipped TO a fine working hare. Rag
narok took the first turn and it was tit fol
tat, with Ragnarok getting the best of il
and winning the course, Donald making q
beautiful kill.
Emin Pasha was hardly fit to run. Yes
terday he won his course and seemed all
right, but this morning he was entirely
off, He is full of fever ana disappointed
| his many friends, for he made game race,
and if he had been in condition would have
made the winner run for his laurels. His
owners withdrew him and Kirkglen ran q
| bye with Fear Not. As there was no judge
| it was impossible to tell who won. 1t was
very long course.
| Third ties-Woodhaven kennels Dakota
and D. o. Miller's Sunol ran a pretty
course in plain view of every one.
Sunol led and did a lot of work. Dakota
also got in and did the same. Sunol was
the best worker. He won with kill.
| ]. II. Rew's Ragnarok and D. 0. Miller's
Kirkglen. like the previous course, ran in
plain view. Kirkglen won, but it was q
close decision.

Dennis and ]. H. Rew's Frank Green went
