the suburban handicap of 1898. The favor
lite was badly beaten. chiefly because the
horses were kept a full hour at the post.
When the bugle called the contenders to
the post there was but little unoccupied
space in the great grand stand, on the roof
or on the lawn.
1t was almost 4:30 when the eleven can
we're In the hands of Starter Fltz-
gerald. and then came n wearisome wait.
After several false starts finally all came
down together. and they were off on their
journey. exactly an hour after they had
reached the starting point.
Tillo was quickest on his feet. and for
a minute his muzzle showed in front, but
his rider took him back to fifth. Royal
Stag came next, followed by Havoc, Ogden,
Don de Orc, Ornament and the others.
They did not settle down to work until
had passed the grand stand and had
reached the end of the first quarter, and
1t could easily be seen that the jockeys had
waiting orders.
AS the horses Strengthened out on the
back stretch. Doggett sent Royal Stag up
a little nearer Ogden, and Peep O. Day and
Imp moved up too, SO that us they passed
the half mile post in that order they were
heads apart.
Tillo was still in fifth place, attended
by Don de OFO, Havoc anu oIldihthl' u
the latter seemed to be overpowered by the
weight he was carrying. Ben Holiday, too,
was in the rear, while the rest had long
been hanging out signals of distress. The
sole exception was Semper Ego, who was
doing well in the rear, but seemed to be
pocketed.
TilIO Moves Up "a Notch.
AS they neared the three-quarte pole
Ioppilion urged OGDEN "A hit. and as they
flashed past the mark, he was a length TO
the good. Imp showed her head in front
of ROYAL Stag, while Clayton moved Til!o
into fourth place. 0rnamen. was actually
in last place. and Sloan was driving for all
he was worth.
1t was only a short distance home aud
there seemed to be no chance for him to
win. Foot by foot Ornament cut down the
| lead of the others. and when he had worked
| his way up to eighth place, Sloan evidently
saw it was useless and gave up a badly rid
den race. .-~1r
1t was but a short drive around the turn.
and then their noses were in the stretch
with Ogden a length in front. Clayton, on

way through the maze Of flying hoofs. and
almost before the others knew it he was
overhauling them rapidly. There was but
e furlong to go and Ogden began to waver.
In a few strides !Tillo had the front rank
and it could be plainly seen that it was all
over. He passed the. wire half a length in
front of Semper Ego, who had snatched sec
ond from Ogden in the last few strides
through the good riding of Maher- Don de
Orc was a bad fourth and the others were
beaten off.
