HARRY SMITHS TRIUMPH
His Horses Win in Three
Events in Brookline
Yesterday.

Brookline. May 27.-Harry w. Smith
figured prominently in the opening day
events of the annual spring race meet
of the Brookline Country Club, yester-
day. In the first event of the day, the
hack race at one mile, purse $3.50, his
chestnut mare Naviculine was an easy
winner in 1851. The great events of the
day, the Country Club steeplechase,
Mr.. Smiths King T. pushed Trillion
from the start, and but for falter in
the last hurdle in the fiat would have
given the son Of King Ernest a diff
cult race to beat. In the three-quarter
mile fiat race, Mr.. Smith rode his bay
gelding Fuscho, finishing in third posi-
ton. Jack Dandy, Mr.. Smiths entry for
the Myopia steeplechase. was unable
to run on account of sickness, and Mr..
Smith rode Harrison H. Gamers St.
Rudolph.
The races were favored by fine wealth
err, and the good crowd saw seven eX-
cellent events The track on the fiat
was fast, while the two steeplechase
races were hotly contested from start
to finish The famous Liverpool wa
ter-jump proved easy for all the horses
in the Country club steeplechase, and
the hot race between Trillion and King
t. up the hill, after the second hurdle,
was one of the features of the after
noon. This race was run in almost
record :101s-which shows that
the Worcester man pushed the winner
hard throughout the entire race. In
the opinion of spectators, King T.
would have overhauled Trlllion had the
course been so feet longer.
The MVODia event which followed
proved killing to three or four of the
horses that led for a round. The big
field of eight horses got away nicely,
Mr.. Smith on st. Rudolph, setting the
pace, but the second time round, Red
Hackle, who was tagging in the rear,
jumped through the field and came into
the stretch with good lead, finally
winning out by six lengths over Lati-
tude.
