SEVEN FAvORITEs WERE TRIUMPHANT.
AMAZING RESULTS OF RACES ON THE SAND
DIMES


The age OF miracles came back for once at Brigh-
ton Beach yesterday. Seven favoritcs were sue
cessfu In seven races Hence everybody appeared
to be happy. except the bookmakers. The start
ing was prompt and satisfactory. the betting was
lively. and the races were well contested. with
the exception Of the so-called hurdle-race. which
was nothing more nor less than farce. Michael
+. Dwyer was a spectator He bet as heavily
ever. and had what the sporive element
terms good day. Mr.. Dwyer laughed at the re-
port that he had lost so heavily at Saratoga that
he was embarrassed and was forced TO ask for a
few days grace from his creditors. Mr. Dwyer said:
Il was not successful IN Saratoga. and did lose
quite large amount on The races. but won
enough on Ben Brush to cover most OF my losses.
The reports are untrue. But. then. you know. some
newspapers could not exist without sensational
