ing a Killing on the Race.

NEW YORK. July 25.-There was no
stake race to relieve the program at
Brighton Beach yesterday. yet the crowd
found plenty Of excuse for speculation
more especially in the handicap. which
was won by W. c.. Days Colonsay.
Colonsay's form has been consistent Of
late in that II has been very bad and
few fancied his chance even with the
100 pounds which Mr.. Vosburgh had as
signed him TO carry. His price opened
at S to /. and scared slowly to to l.
W. r. Condor was the even money fav-
orite. and even he was asked to give
twelve pounds by the scale to Days
horse.
Colonsay was quite some horse yester-
day. He went to the front at the COM
mencement. led by an open length the
entire distance. and won from W r.
Condor quite bandily in the fast time
Of 1:53 2-5 for the mile and furlong
Bar lie Due gave Condor a hard hght for
the place. the latter beating him in the
/ last few strides by head
Divination Wins.
/ The Mexican Stables Divination made
a runaway RAGS OF the first two-year
event, winning by length and a half
from the odds-on favorite. The South
erner. which was we'll played at to 8.
Divination won the last time out from a
big field. beating Pristina and field Of
/ fifteen. and 10 10 l looked to be a false
price against such a speedy Ally The
time OF the race was 1.13.
Another fast race was the lightweight
handicap at three-quarters Of q mile
won by F. Gebhard's Cay Boy in I:I2 As
Gay Boy carried the top weight. 125
pounds, and Is evidently just coming 10
form. He viii hold his own in any
springing company from this out.
Cincinnatus in a Gailop.
Sailor Knot won the two-year-old SELL
Ing race. at 10 to 1. but had little back
ing Oh the part of his owner H. F
Meyer. Such was not the case with
Cincinnatus, belonging to Terry Mccoy
ern. He. too. was at 10 to /. and was well
played by Pittsburs Phil and several
other good judges. He led ali the way
ana won gaIloping by two lengths.
! The favoTite players had a disastrous
day. Hyland the winner OF the sixth. a
maiden race. being the only one to get
home in front. Six Jockeys scored one
win apiece. these being Hicks. pullman.
Cochran. Fuller. DesOuza. and Burns.
But Fgller's victory in the fourth race
profted him little. since Starter Fitz-
gerald fined him 500 for unruly conduct.
He he'd previously been set down for
one day in the third race. Hack and
Dreamer aroused the starters displeas-
ure in the second race and were ordered
10 pay s25 to the fund; NYilkerson like
wise was fined S25 in the third race. and
\ Cannon. cleaner. and Cornell s25 each
in the fourth.
