Double I cam Event.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SACRAMENTO, sept. 13.-The card this
afternoon was a trifle off color, but the
usual large crowd was in attendance, spec
ulating quite as freely as if the fields were
composed of stake horses instead of plat
ers. First choices in the betting almost
scored a sweep, taking all but the double
team event.
This latter number. the first called,
proved quite an attractive feature. Mar
guerite and Fanny Putnam, driven by
Jeffries. enjoyed the honors of favoritism
when the horses first scored up for the
word, but never cut much Of a figure in
the race. The Sacramentans strung their
coin on the chances of Vet" Tryon be-
hind Primrose and Regina f, and it was
like receiving a legacy from a long lost
uncle, for the pair cakewalked in two
straight heats. George Berry held the
reins over DR.. Frasse and Mamie Riley
hooked to an Ordinary and his pair, the
only duo using the diagonal gait, made a
brilliant showing, twice finishing a credit
able second,
There were but five contestants for the
2:lS class trot. Before the first heat, a
light plunge chopped the to l chalked

furlong dash. The Boots entry, Enjoy
ment, was a pronounced favorite and
strangely enough Morse landed the filly
winner over Mandamus, after Tres Jolie
had cut out the pace for two-thirds of the
journey.
The event following was also five-fur-
long spin for two-year-old maidens, with
a bit better assortment lining up. At post
time Flamote had a slight call over FL
Arte in the ring. Sullivan on Ell Arte suf-
fered from heat prostration or bookmak-
ers' fright while at the post, allowing
MaCklin, astride of Flamote, to beat out
Tagalog in d drive. Fairfax led into the
stretch and then blew up.
Harry Whitman finally managed to get
his sprinter Chihuahua in with some of the
lower set and the concluding siX-furlong
restraint to the stretch he soon assumed
the lead, winning cleverly from Rapido.
Morse, the wizard Of the saddle, with the
leg on Donator. the heavily played sec
ond choice. pulled his mount up without
apparent cause at the start and should
have been summarily punished.
