HARDY HARES
 RAN IN FORM
 AT |NCLES|DE Fast Dogs Beaten
 by Stayers. THE TALENT WAS HIT HARD SEVERAL THREE-MILE COURSES ON THE GREEN SWARD. The Final Rounds of To-Day Will Doubtless Be Witnessed by
 Many Thousand Lovers
 of Good Sport.

The knowing ones, who seldom miss good thing in the coursing field when an opportunity is offered to scoop up the almighty dollars, got setback yesterday which opened up large cavities in their inside pockets, all of which will require stitching to-day with golden threads. Yes, 1t was a very chilly day yesterday at Ingleside Coursing Park for the mem bers of the talent who gambled and lost on what was generally supposed to be a ''sure thing.'
 Possibly if the courses had been short and speed had counted ahead of other points in the game which can only be at tained when the staying qualities of the contesting dogs are fully tested, the talent would have won hands down, so to speak. | But when The Call predicted on Saturday morning that the hareS would run like good fellows whenever a north wind blew | 1t hit the nail on the head, as better coursing than that of yesterday has sell dom been witnessed within the walls-or fences, better said-of a coursing de- | mesne.
 The hares? We'll, they literally flew over | the ground, and the poor dogs got gruel- | lers of the genuine order. The sprintlng dogs, although they led to game and | scored some points, were downed sadly l by their opponents which had staying | qualities, and finished up in grand style, much to the joy of the ''ones who do not know a thing about the game" but who | had taken chances on the short end. | Spectators who intend to gamble on the | final results of the meeting this afternoon will do well to play on form, as there will 1 undoubtedly be some very hard upsets | before the final flag is hoisted.
 | The hares at Ingleside are running in | the best form imaginable and 1t can be safely said that the dogs of good breed | ing that have an ample supply of Vi- tallty and backbone will meet in the final 1 round of the days meeting. The upsets yesterday were the downfall of Liberty defeat of Crosspatch by Kid Mccoy, l to shot; the defeat of Gladiator by Forgive, l to shot, the, defeat Of But But The he CaI w warned it's readers yester- 1 day to be careful of this course, as St. Michael, although young and new dog, of Royal Buck by Prince Hal, which was a 1 to shot: the defeat oI Sir Marmion by Red Cloud, to 3 shot; the defeat the defeat of Kerry Cow by Bona Dea, a to shot; the defeat of Mystic Maid by Mission Tip; 1 to shot. .,u
 Some of the courses were exceptionally long. The course between Red Cloud and Sir Marmion lasted minutes 12 seconds. and the course between o K Capitol and Myrtle lasted minutes 23 seconds.
