In the second dash at four and a half furlongs the Mecca was made red | hot favorte at evens with Silverdale next in demand. The latter won at the end 1 from Zack Ford with the favorite third. Algol, one of the best handicap horses | in the west, opened favorite for the third race a six furlong dash, but his price gradually receded to twos. Gold dor closed favorite at to 5. The latter made all the running until well strengthened out l for home where Highland Lad and Algol challenged him and in a bruising finish Highland Lad won by head from Algol. The time, 11rk, breaks the local track record.
 The Mississippi handicap at a mile and sixteenth brought five starters to the post.
