THE HOUNDS HAD TO QUIT
FMIN PASTA AND SIR JOHN
ARNor PUMPED OUT.

Sir John Arnot and Emin Pasha will
feel for some time the effects OF a course
they had yesterday at Union Park. The
hare which was one of Merced'S hound
killers, ran the dogs up and down the
field opposite the slipping ground until
Sir John reluctantly dropped his head and
leaned against the fence TO support his
exhausted anatomy. His opponent Emin
Pasha continued after his game, passing
the grand stand in a lope. Emin's hano-
Ter followed, and not being sufficiently
spry of limb to overtake the dog, three
or four fresh hounds were cast off and
the game little hare was soon dispatched
Emin scored several points before Sir
John got in, but the white dog rapidly
closed the gap and was having good
lead in points at the time he was struck
with that tired feeling which frequently
occurs to dogs when they are exercised
on the plains of MERGED.
The first course of the day was COM
plete surprise to the players of the long
end. Culver sold at 81 as against IS on
Gilt Edge, but the last-named flyer quit
running after having scored the first turn
to long lead up to game. Culver then
got in and held first place TO the finish.
Hot Stuff defeated the favorite Montana
in rather short course. One Of the pref
test courses of the day was between
White Tip and Seldom. To good hare
the dogs were carried the full length of
the field, White Tip winning, with not
many points to spare. Lively betting re-
suited when HadiWist and that grand
| young dog, Victor King, were called to
the slips. Several dollars changed hands
| at even money, but the old dog favored by
the hare, proved too much for his young
opponent, although the King remained
right by his side up TO the time the Kill
Ace of Clubs Qate Blackstone defeated
Vigilant, a prime favorite, and Crusader,
after no course, won the flag of sue
| cess from Minneapolis. Minneapolis was
a strong faVOrite at Sc to 81 and in the
| final course she also was played well at
scored, as the hare was a poor performer,
and Crusader, who led to game, scored
the first turn and kill.
Ida beat Green Valley Maid. s. to 81
shot, and Bendigo, after no course, cas-
lily disposed of Winged Foot.
In the final course of the rundown Chile
Pepper, selling at 81 against 50, scored a
no course with White Lily In the runoff
the last named dog won in a very pretty
course. just as darkness was setting in.

There will be great speculation on the
winner of to-day's champion stake. Rock
Island Boy, if in good form, should give
False Flatterer a hard run. Mountain
Beauty will doubtless dispose Of Wait a
Little. To good hare-but 1t must be a
good one-Firm Friend should take flag
from Theron, and Right Bower, If he is
not euchred by too much elixir Of life,
should dispose of Royal Prize.
