Special Dispatch to The Cali.

Los ANGELES, Oct. 1.-THE grand
stand was gayly decorated with the ma
uonal colors, the red, white and blue was
everywhere conspicuous and a large crowd
assembled at the park to-day TO welcome
home the returning Seventh Regiment
which was expected to march to the
track and perform some military evolu-
tons. But the gathering was disappOint-
ed. Colonel Berry, marched his troops
from the depot 10 their armory, and there
they broke ranks. Without them, the
afternoon dragged YEARLY on, and the
sport evoked but little enthusiasm.
Thompson captured the special trot and
the black colt Direct Heir enjoyed a walk
over for the Semtropic stake. In the
running events, Miss Daily and Masoero
were the only winning favorites.
In the opening heat of the trot, Thomp-
son looked like legitimate favOrite, and
he opened as such in the ring The edu-
Gated harness-horse set, the rawest set OF
mechanics the turf ever saw, sent their
coin in on Our Jack, cutting his price
from to l down to even money. In a
finish that would cause blind man to
regain his sight, Bunch, behind ThOmp-
son, allowed Sullivan, holding the ribbons
over Jack, 10 beat him head. 1t was a
coarse piece of grating, ana the Judges
promptly decided it no heat, and Driver
Bunch was fined 500. Thompson was then
sent out, and won in straight heats.
Jockey Lew might ride barrel down
some hillside, but he should contlne his
future operations to the middle-man act
for some undertaken in the betting ring
and keep away from the saddle. he rode
his tllly, Inola, to . taVorlte, IN the
first running dash, and made a bad botCh
OF II. Peter Weber, an TO l shot, had
him beaten long Defore the wire was
reached, but s.werVed the last fifty yards
and Lew worked the old-fashloned bluI
of pulling up. and in doing so was led out
for the place by Ellen Wood. The judges
then disqualified Peter Weber, giving the
a Ellen Wood. II a most
caled-fOr decision.
one of the worst punches of crabs ever
gathered together lined up in the five and
q half furlong scramble following. Miss
Daisy, ridden by Mike Hennessy, backed
from to 10 . to 3, won through superior
riding in a hard drive from NhlStle BIRD
the second choice
The downfall of Rubicon in the five-fur-
long spin was the hardest blow of all.
The chestnut horse had a big following
that backed him al short odds. Caldwell S
work with the gate, which all along has
been ragged, was in this instance bad.
Amasa, a to l chance, Slid away IN the
lead, and at the wire won almost easily
from the odds-On choice. MOrinGa, me
second choice, was almost left standing
still.
Ivy Powell, a young man with a belated
idea slumbering in his brain that he is q
rider, will find out ere long that he has
been relating strange tales to hlmSel1: Ht
had the mount on MaSoero in the ma
run, a six and a half furlong affair, anC
the price against the morse stroiIed bacF
from to o to 21z TO l. The judges lner
replaced Powell with Piggott, and Maso
ero won easily from Pat Murphy. 1nt
latter was at one time dead but aWak
ened when the shift came Denny Lyncf
and the smart set had their checks dowr
on Kaiser Ludwig, forcing MS ODDS IRON n,
