Saratoga. y. Y. Aug. 1S.-The Musketeer. rae
ing in the colors and name of Mrs. Frank Far
reI made a new worlds record for seven
furlongs on a circular rack at Saratoga to-day.
II was predicted in to-day's Tribune that
worlds record would be broken before the end
Of the Saratoga meeting, and the prediction
hardly cold in type before it was verified. The
Nusketeer ran the seven-eighths of a mile in
l:25 fat thus knocking two-ffths of a second
of the time made by Clifford at Sheepshead
Bay some years ago, and by Chuctanunda on
the Saratoga track last week. The time by fur
longs was follows: Oh 0.23 0:33 10 0:46 S-5.
O:59 Ill 40 and 10
The 'poolroom horse was the favorite and
Won with by 4 length and a half from

who was running for the first time in her new
owners colors. Delago7 closed strong enough
TO beat King Pepper for the place. Colonel
Peppers fast sprinter tiptoed his field for four
furlongs but O'Connor urged his mount a bit
and he soon overhauled the leader. wTested the
command from him and never in any trou-
bic thereafter. II was a better race even than
it looked as the Musketeer could surely have
bettered his time had he been pressed Bullman
broke the barrier before the start, and it cost
him $50 and one days suspension
The other sensational event of the day was
year-oIds and over, at mile. Blues was at the
impossible odds OF / TO 10 in the betting, and
most Of the speculation was the place. De-
spite this and the fact that he had an inferior
lot 10 beat. he was disgracefully defeated He
raced into a long Lead soon after the start, and
il looked as if il was all over but sending up
the numbers. In the stretch however, Huntressa
rushed up ard challenged and as soon as Blues
saw that the flly had caught him he curled up
like a negro caught in a watermelon patch
Odom was alert and rode him hard with whip
and spur but he would not respond, and was
beaten by a length and a half by mare at even
weights, weight for age And this is the horse
that many thought the equal Of Gold Heels
Gold Heels would have wont the race in a
canter.
There was a fine finish in the handicap be-
tween Douro, Baron Pepper and Ethics The
Baron had been especially prepared for the
race. and Louis Bell and his friends had backed
him from tens to fours. and they were dis
appointed group when he beaten neck in
2 hard drive by Douro. Rice claimed foul
against Burns, but the stewards gave the claim
scant consideration. Par Excellence ran so bad
a race that ii is difficult of explanation.
Andy Williams was left at the post IN the
third race. made up twenty lengths and finished
