Perhaps II was owing to Mr.. Naginn':
sapient action in raising the weights Of
riders that hinloch Park furnished one Of
the best days racing seen about st. Louis
IN years yesterday. Aaayhow. the form wa
clean as a whistle. the riding Of the boys
excellent, the starts immense. Compared
with the sweetness. serenity and mirth OF
yesterdays racing at Kinloch the chime OF
the famous marriage bell OF ST. Pauf's is
a mere harsh and discordant jangle. Not
since the famous Hector was a pup and
Rome a cash in the hills has there been a
neater days horse racing seen ii Missouri.
Though the class OF the fields was not very
high. the riding was good. and the best
horse won every tine. The fun of IL was
the bettors could always get 4 good price
against hin. If they picked the wrong
horse at a short price. as they did Lime
light. who had no license on earth to be a

Proceedings began when Mr.. Chinn made
one of his beauty starts. He sent twelve
horses of as General Chaffee used 10 dress

They got of fine in the very first attempt.
Miss Lyman LOOKED like a l TO s shot If she
was right. She was. but few knew IT,, for IL
was her first start in some time hereabouts.
Chiffon. another good horse, was also a
natural choice. but her form was not pub
lie. As good as S TO 1 could have been had
against these two. Padrone, at 3 10 L was
favorite. .Asoka was backed at 2Ds. They
raced In a bunch to the turn. Then Miss
Lyman drew up. went past and ran OF with
Il. Chiffon was second. Asoka third and
Padrone fourth. Every horse In the race
finished just where he or she belonged.
schreiber's First Race in Front.
Many people were glad TO see the familiar
purple. yellow sleeves and red cap of 3.
Schneider finish In front. even il the infalIi-
bic stewards OF WASHINGTON Park did splat-
ter an ugly ink drop on the fair white
sheet of reputation which it took the
Dutchman ten years to upbuild. Without
making an inquiry into the right and
wrong OF the Fly by Night case, the spec
tators generally seemed TO be glad that Mr..
Lucas saw Mt to disregard the action Of
Washington Park and allowed Schneider to
race on his track.
Curd Gillock's good race against Miss

Although the third race was an apparent

Again In the fifth race Necklace was a
hot Il at eyens. though she could not show
why Lomond had friends at tnrees and he
did seem to have a chance. As it turned out
II was a weIk for the best horse. Henry OF
Frsntzmar. Necklace had 1t easy to the
stretch head. Then Lorond and Frantzmar
closed on her. Dominick could not hold her
esromed into Lomond. who was coming up
on the pole. 1t was a foul, but it seemed
as IL Kfey had no particular license taking
the chance OF getting inside with Lomond.
Meanwhile Frost was riding Henry of

side. DOminich in turn tried to stall him
on. but Frost fairly outrode the Goose Hill

Nance O'Nein was a warm favorite in the
last race but she never Was in IL. Terralene
was the proper favorite at eveHs. Marie G.
Brown had followers at 2 to i, but she did
not seem TO stand a chance. Terralene won
handily. Dominick again could not keep his

track
In every race the start was perfect and
every time the best horse won. 1t was a
fine days racing though the class of The
fields was poor, which would show that a
liberal scale of weights will work well.
