Stake Race.

Perfect weather, q fast track and an ex.
ceilent racing card. with the Juvenile
Stake included, rnade the sport yesterday
afternoon at the Fair Grounds very en-
soyable.
Jockey Talley celebrated his reinstatement
by landing three winners. Jockey Morse
was successful on two, and, OF course,
Pinochle, with little Jimmy T. Woods UP,
had to be ON hand, as usual. g winner.
The juvenile Stake, q selling sweepstakes
at six furlongs, for ?-year-olds. was carded
as the star feature Of the sport. but the
short odds offered on the Calm entry OF
South Breezs and S8rd made ii rather
tSrdy speculative event, and deprived the
bookmakers of many dollar which they
might have retained had they been nervy
enough to take a chance. The performance
of South Breeze in the stake was q disap-
pointment, as he never cut any figure Is a
contender. Fred Hessig took to the ira
at the start Of the race, and went sailing
free by two lengths TO the stable turn,
where Sard buckled up with him. and the
pair entered the stretch head and head.
The hot pace told on both. for as the
eighth pole was passed. Jockey Morse, on
Golden Harvest passed the ur!ns couple
and came on TO the scoring point TWO
lengths to the good. Jockey Dale, on Ade-
lante. put up some good work in the run
home for he slipped along the raj! and
nipped second money from Sard by a snort
nose.
The race which probably created the most
interest. and which was the best specuI2-

a rush up the straight and n;pped show
money from Duty.
Miss Mae Day was chalked Up a 7-to-lo
shot for the third and was well backed at
that price. Many fancied Charlie o'Brien
and he was literally supported at 70 2.
Charlie O'Brien was unfortunate, for short
ly after the start he had jostling match
with Crossmolina, which hurt any chance
he might lave had at the finish for he I'm

straight as string and weakening.
Jockey Talley pulled his bat a couple Of
strides before tbs winning post was reachsa.
At that, the performance Of Miss Mae Day
Was remarkable. for she broke the track
record for mile and seventy yards, run
ming it in las. q half second faster than
Leader Bans race OF September To- 1886.
Charlie O'Brien finished grand second and
some good work can be expected of this
good son Of Trafalgar and Lucy Lewis.
Crossmolira beat Sir Rolla away of far
third money.
The Light. another odds-on favorite, won
the last race very easily by a length from
Winnebejour. with Lady Curzon third. The
Light had TO be pounds the best to win this
race. for Jockey Dale on WinnebejoUr came
near putting her over the fence at the
stretch turn. Jockey Dale was put on the
ground for ten days for his rough ride on
Wimbledon.
