TWO GOOD THINGS WENT BY.

Tuesday was not by any means an EVENT.
ful day at Delnar PARK. There was some
neat racing at that The evolution Of the
card produced almost one grand line OF
winning favorites.
The first three races went TO very decided
public choices. The fourth was won by
Beana. who. singuiarly, was exceeded in IA
vortisrn by Miss Patron. The latter was
made the choice chiefly through weight of
wise money. Every fly gazabe'' at the
track was betting Mr.. Firms filly. In
deed. If weight of sagacious currency could
make horse win, 1t should have done so
here. But Tommy O'Brien got lot more
out of Beana yesterday than Willie Dale
did the time she met Miss Patron and Peter
Duryea and ran third. So the wise money
went where all money eventually goes
into the Golfers OF the bookmakers.
This was the race OF the day, and II af-
forded splendid lesson OF the utter fool
ishness of paying attention to wise"
money. Bettors may he wise in some in
stances. yet it must be admitted that the
bookmakers are not fools all the time.
Was Not Truly Run Nace.
Last time Beana, Miss Patron and Peter
Duryea met they finished Peter Duryea.
Miss Patron, Beana. The Republic form
chart then said that the race was a false
ly run one. and that Beana should have
won. with Miss Patron second. Yesterday
event proved the absolute accuracy Of
this analysis. Beana won. or by herself.
and Miss Patron would have been second In
another stride.
With all due respect for Dale II must
be admitted that U'Biien outrode him at
all stages OF the game yesterday and that
Mr.. F1zer's mare made very much bet
ter showing under o Brien than under
Dale. while Miss Patron. coming from
under Lindsey, showed no Improvement I'M
DER Dale. Nor did Peter Drryea. coming
from between the eerie legs of Stockwell,
who is a regular Einkey. show any i'm
provement under Lindsey, who is not the
worst boy In the world.
The clever Mr.. Hayes put the good and
long-laid-up colt. Crinrean. over the plate
in the first race. Frank O'Neill looked very
smart and saucy as he came back to weigh
out. Crimean was much the best. w. L.

Harry Shaffer finished strong in third 20

the judges were in the best position te

Two Things That Were Overlooked.
Bulgarian was coy sleeper" In tht
NTH race. He started as a good thing Sat
urday and ran good race behind Menace
and Fairy Day, beating among others Lo
mond. who finished second to him yester
day. Singularly enough. Lomond was 8
toll shot yesterday. while bulgarian. wht
beat him under similar conditions their pre-
yious meeting. was held at to /.
The books were out Of line and We're mad
TO pay for 20 being. Bulgarian was backed
from s to 4 to ], and walked in. Lomonl
was a good second. Patient and lonS-suffer
eternal running second any longer. 30 h
went and bid Bulgarian UP to $6Uv and tool
him away from J. c. Mitchell, his forme
owner.
Ben Frost was q nice-loohing s-to-10 sho
