king Of the homestretch." His hour had come.
He knew it, and Burns, his rider. knew it. too.
So the crowd and those who had exclaimed that
Herbert was beaten now hailed the appearance
Of a new champion against the outsider. The
mile had been in l 40 fat.
Advance Guard swung wide about the turn
and Strengthened out for his final effort. He
was a length behind Blues. but the latter had
little 1gh. left in him and declined to answer
the challenge of the Great Tom horse. Ad-
vance Guard left the Sir Dixon colt behind in
ten strides. Monograph then weakened. and
Advance Guard left him. too astern, and set
sail for the flying canary jacket that bobbed
above the flly. Burns was driving him hard,
and nobly he stood the gruelling. But, do all
he could, he could not nute get up in time.
O'Connor had timed his dying effort to nicely
and drove his mount out to the last ounce. 1t
a narrow thing but Reina just did get home
by a nose and that all. In two jumps more
Advance Guard would have caught her. He had
made gallant run under discouraging crcum-

splendid performance, and there nearly
much appaluse for Advance Guard as for the
winning mare.
PENTECOST PRIMED FOR A KILLING"

Morris Park, seemed to be fit enough yesterday.

Sadie s O'Connor was lifted in the floral chair
and made his bow TO the appauding crowd, and
the Brooklyn Handicap of 1902 history.
The day began with a fearful accident that
ended the career Of two thoroughbreds and Sc
verey injured one jockey. The first race was
an all ages handicap at six furlong. Cervera
and The Musketeer were nearly even favortes
and made all the running AT the far turn they
just managed TO dodge big, yellow dog that
had straytd out upon the track. coming
around the near turn The Musketeer had a lead
OF half a length. but Cervera began to close up
the gap and looked like a winner. when, with
a gasp of horror. the crowd the chestnut
horse go down. Cunard leaped the fallen
horse and kept on IL safety but the next three
lucky. Lamp O'Lee and Sterling
Fox rushed pellmeil upon the fallen racer and
went down amid cloud of dust. Sterling Fox
got up and ran down the stretch Cervera and
Lamp OLee stumbled TO their feet. but sunk
down again. The Oddfellow gelding had fract-
ured his shouderblade and Lamp O'Lee had
broken a leg. Both of them had TO be de-
stroyed.
1t seemed impossible that the fallen jockeys
should have escaped death from the flying hoofs,
but Mchaels unhurt. Odom and DAILY were
carried from the track, the former unconscious
and the latter with three broken ribs. Odom
only stunned and bruised. however and
will be able to tride in few days. 1t will be
weeks before DAILY is In the saddle again. All
three boys are luck to have escaped with their
lives. Whether Cervera crossed his legs or
stepped a stone Will never be known. There
was no interference that could account for the
accident.

sixth race, running the mile and seventy yards

SquantO at 30 to |. was first by head in the
fifth race owing largely to the fact that Decora-

Turnpike showed a burst of early speed much
like Hatasaa's in the last race, and won with
