On the Other Good Things They
Were Thrown Down.
ECLIPSE, JR,, BADLY HANDLED
Every body Expected Her TO Win, but
Her. Jockey Was Fake-OXford
and Odd Socks Also Disappointed
Everybody-Guest Rode the Latter
Like Clothes Horse.

The first three races at the st. Asaph
track yesterday proved so easy for the talent
that they were led to think they would
beat the card. One after another they
got down their bumps on the good things
and had the pleasure of seeing them come
home the easiest kind of winners.
Their good fortune did not last long,
however, as they fell down hard on the
third race, and then did not land a single
winner from that tine out Joe Mack was
the one TO upset their calculations III the
third. He would have hardly done it but
for the apology for a jockey who had the
mount on Eclipse. ir.
Eclipse jr. was touted as the good thing
of the day; at least the handicdppers fig
ured him such. That they were way off
in. their calculations was proven by the
result. He was very heavily played, not
only on the track, but in the pool rooms
all over the country.
oxford and DAD Socks Were the next
favorites to throw their hackers down
aud they did it j n the most approved style.

get Off badly aud did not make Il move to
better his position until he knew that he
was so far out of the race that he could
not hope to get up.
AVER DEAD CORPSE.
The last time that this horse started
he beat Irish Pat aud Wyoming. He ran
all around his field coming from very nearly
laStposition a nd winning somewhat handiy.
If he was not a dead Que yesterday then
there was never such a thing on race
track
During the early part of the afternoon
it was very hot in the stand and betting
ring, but later a breeze blew up and cooled
things off considerably.
On form Tanglefoot figured pipe in the
opening race and was made the favorite.
The heaviest play, however, came i'll on
Jilson, who was backed from to 1 down
to to and then went back to to 1.
rhe favorite beat the flag and they never
got to him. He won by two lengths from
Clair W., who was a length and a half
before the good thing"
Eleven two -year-olds faced the starter in
the second race, with Inheritance the choice
out OF the bunch in the last hundred yards
and getting the decision from Little Ralph
with Rapids third, a length away.
NOSTRAND RODE CLEVERLY.
On the strength of the good race with Joe
Mack, Renaissance had the call in the sew
en-eighths event. Little Nostrand rode
him, and going out in front on the first
turn, was never headed. The youngster
rode him well, and got all the coin. Wy
oming was second, three parts of a length
before DeTvish.
Joe Mack defeated Eclipse, Jr., in the
fourth race, and in so doing upset a red
hot good thing. The latter horse was mis-
erably ridden by boy named Burkhart.
With decent jockey he might have had q
chance to beat the fast Westerner. So
nora was third, twenty lengths in front OF
Herndon.
Oxford had all the call in the fifth race

plete returns from all the election dis

election of DIR. j. w. Herring, the Dem

Il majority of seventeen votes. The
election was a special one, held for the
purpose of selecting successor to the
late Senator Pinckney J. Bennett, who
died suddenly few weeks after his
election i'm November as a Democrat.
On the contest depended the political
complexion Of the State Senate, which
meets in January. If the Republicans
had won the Senate would have been
composed of thirteen Democrats and
the same number of Republicans. AS
il is. the Democrats have majority OF
two votes and will thereby be able to
prevent much of the legislation which
the Republicans would otherwise have
been able to enact. The contest has

NEW YORK, Dec. 2l.-A rumor was
put in circulation by an evening paper
to the effect that there was a proba-

who interviewed Secretary Ely, OF the
Stock Exchange on the subject, was
informed that no suggestion of such a
course had reached that officer, that
no meeting of the members of the EX
change had been had to consider such
a course. and that he saw no reason
to expect any meeting of the Stock
Exchange to consider the proposition.
Concluding, Mr.. Ely said: "The Stock
Exchange will be open as usual every
business day of the week"
