THE KENTUCKY DERBY.
The Fayorite Ornament Goes Down Before
Typhoon II,

Louisville, May 12.-The % Kentucky
Derby has passed into history and along
with it the winner and spring calcula-
ton of the talent. Ornament, the much
touted son of Imp Order, lowered his col
ors this afternoon before gamer and a
better animal Without being touched
and with only little shaking up near
the wire, Typhoon, II. landed the coverted
prize. The finish was not of the sensa-
tional kind. Tpyhoon's victory was won
with an ease that clearly proves his su-
periority over the five other colts contest
ing for the honor. 1t was a good betting
race, but Typhoon, through second
choice, carried but little of the public
money.
Last nights heavy rain made the track
about three seconds SLOW. The winner
is by Top Gallant out of Dolly Warden
and is, owned by ]. G. Calm of Memphis.
Ben Brown was sold by owner Furst to
Fleichman, the Cincinnati millionaire
horseman before today's race. Eight
thousand dollars was the price paid for
him. F'llrst retaining one half of his win
ming in the Louisville, Oakley and La
tonia Derby.

3-year-olds, foal of 1884, guaranteed value
