PROFITABLE AFTERNOON FOR CUNNING TURF.
MEN
The starting at Morris Park Yesterday mex
pressibv bad. and the railroad service worse.
OF all the patient people known since Job sat down
the ashes and took at poisherd. the meek
and iowly men and women who go to the races and
iese ,hcir money 10 the booimakers superatve-
ly unrepining They are angry, they are
never even peevish. They submit without muir
rur 10 wrongs and injuries from the railroads and
the tracks and the starters and the officials and the
trainers and the jockeys and the bookmakers griev-
Gus enough provoke the frieze OF the Parthenon
to violent and vocifcrous protest. Few more singu-
lar and whimsical things IN American life be
discovered than the bewdering humility and
docility with which supporters OF the turf in this
State submit to the most insolent. the most OBJ
trusive. the obdurate and officious OF unfair
dealings from railroad managers and from various
other persons
Maher had a mount IN every at Morris Park
yesterday. He second the favorite Brass
in the first affair and he rode Brass like stray
eft in a mud puddle. Properly ridden that favorite
Brass could not have failed to be first.
The start in the second race was distresslngly
discredtable 10 the starter and 10 the racing off,
Gals who permit such starter 10 play such pranks
as a Park Row newsboy In a mood of mischief
could not excel. Maher the favorite Autumn.

got second place Well ridden by competent
Jockey Macleod OF Dare would have had no grave
trouble IN getting first honors Autumn. geld
ing was carrying l2l pounds while Macleod OF
Dare q colt was carrying only H. and Macleod
of Dare is one Of the most promising two-year-olds
in the country. and VIII probably win important
stakes in 1889.
Burns was on May Burns in the first race She

and nobody knows why she was started Even
Sloan could not have ridden May Burns into third
place IN that vaudeville performance CiaWson' on
