FOUR SENSATIONAL HEATS
SOME GREAT SPORT IN THE FOR
 TY DOG STAKE COURSE.

A match race for $500. a forty dog stake race and a balloon ascension race and parachute drop within seeing distance were a few of the many specta- cles that contributed to the enjoyment or a tremendous crowd at Ingleside Cours- ing Park yesterday The initial perform ance attracted the greater interest al though there were stages in the big stake race that made 1t a close second in point of interest.
 As anticipated, the betting on the out come of the match between Patria and Moondyne was heavy Both dogs had a large following, and before the rundown the excitement was intense. AS the rivals were led to the slips by their respective trainers they were closely examined and found to be in superb fettle. The dogs were slipped to fast jack but it was quickly overtaken by speedy Moondyne and killed. In. the next round Patrla evened matters by scoring ten points to her rivals four in chase after long hare. Patria' s win giaddened the hearts of the "ShortenderS, as she was played at to $.
 a slight favorite. The dogs were in such good condition that the Jack was killed before it had made much progress. Judge GraCes decision undecided" was greeted with loud applause, as bettorS were given another chance for their money.
 An hour later the dogs were slipped for their final heat. Moondyne led up. and took the turn by three lengths, gaining wrench" when Patria shot forward and killed" spelling her chances of landing the big purse. Moondynes score was to Patria' s 212.
 Experts were of the opinion that Moon- dyne won the race on his merits They believe him much faster and stronger than his rival, but qualify their asser- ! tions by adding that Patria is not far be- hind him in both essentials.
 The feature of the stake race, and there were many during the afternoon, was the course between Matchless and Pat Nal loy. The last named dogs chased back and forth across the big park for six minutes and thirty-five seconds and stopped from exhaustion, the hare scampering tC the escapes. This course was one of the longest ever witnessed at the park, and created a sensation. Judge Graces steed became tired following the long chase, and the man who bestrode it, fearing fatal results to the hounds, or dered them stopped. This was an easy task, as they were barely trotting. Pat Malloy was awarded the flag, but was afterward withdrawn.
 In the minds of many Matchless might have ended the course earlier in the game and won but for the long run he experi- enced in the previous round.
 Favorites landed often, but the infre- quent victories of the 'shortenders'' add ed spice to the betting.
