THE TALENT DISAPPOINTED
SPECTATORS WITNESS SOME
HARD COURSES.

Bartels Brothers Macs Melody ran in
superb form at Ingleside yesterday and
added another stake to his already good
record. Pitted against him were some
famous hounds, but due to the clever
handling by ]. P. Thrift, his present
trainer, the white dog downed them all.
His victory was disappointment to the
talent" who picked Rocket to land the
stake. Their judgment was heavily back
ed, and when Rocket was put out by Jen-
ME Wilson,. the runner up in the stake,
there was deep wailing. This might not
have come to pass had not their choice
stumbled in the course, as he was leading
the bitch by many lengths. According to
those who were in the field Rocket fell
against the fence and was partly dazed
when the points were 8 to in his favor.
Before he could recover himself Jennie
Wilson scored two more and killed.
The long course between Mystic Maid
and Mira Monte was the actual feature
Of the day. The hare led the hounds up
and down the grand stand for four min
uteS and thtrty-eight seconds, and sought
safety in Slip Steward Halpin's paddock,
but his relentless pursuers followed him
in there and ended his existence, while
he was crouching against the fence.
Despite her long course against Black
Hawk on Saturday, Glen Chloe showed
great speed in yesterdays running beat
courses before succumbing to Jennie VIII
son. Her work was considered marvellous
by coursing experts, and Mr.. Deckelmah
was congratulated on possessing such
good bitch.
Another feature was the frequency with
which the shortenders landed. Rule Duke
beat Miss Skybali, Il; Glen Chloe beat
Brilliantine, AZ; Jennie Wilson beat
Interesting, 81; Fear Not beat Flying
Buck in a bye, II; Mystic Maid beat
Mira Monte, 81, and Dawn beat Macs
Melody in a bye at IL.
In the final course for the stake between
Macs Melody and Jennie Wilson both
dogs were slipped to a speedy hare. Macs
Melody led by three lengths, taking the
one point, and keeping possession for
eight more, when he drove the prey to
Handy & Smiths bitch for a turn and
killed, making the score u to 4.
Although a heavy fog rolled in about
o'clock in the afternoon, strange to
narrate it passed completely to the north
of the park and the view of the specta-
tors was unimpaired Despite the cold
down Jennie Wilson.
