The Iron Hill gates were orencd to a
good crowd Yesterday and some good
racing was witnessed. There were but
five races on the card. but the talent
found them enough. The battle between
them and the books was fierce one, it
only lasted five rounds. the talent had
much the worse of the bout.
Round first Oracle was good thing
and he was heavily played by the talent,
but he was giving away too much weight
to that game thrc-vear-old Monroe Doc
trinc and was fairly beaten. Books had
the best of this round
Second round. Gold Dollar and Finn
water opened even choices at So apiece,
but the talent thought Finnwater good
thing and played her strong. bnt she
boltcd at flag fall and that blow sent
them to the floor, but the bell saved
them.
Third round. Meadows was an easy
mark for the much distressed talent and
they went at him with all the power they
had left The blow was a good one and
the books were forced to the ropes. This
was the talents round.
; Fourth round. The change in things
helped the talent and they went in to
finish their opponents. From the
start this blow had; it looked like win
nar but it failed, and as they passed un-
der the wire the talent was very groggy.
Fifth round. The talent had two new
blows up their sleeves, Francis M. and
Black Hawk, were their names, but the
books were not to be caught this way
with victory in their hands, but just
landed peach called the Farragut upper
cut and it was bird. The talent was
clearly knocked out; 1O2 seconds was
counted by the time keeper, but the last
, blow did the work; it was all over; books
received the decision.
