The National lsaguers Travelled a swift

STRONG HARES

Many Elude the Hounds
at Union Coursing
Park.
Sacramento Boy Is a Slight
Favorite for the In
augural.

The hares coursed at Union Park yes
terday showed greater strength and
speed than those RELEASED for some weeks
past and better trials resulted. Many of
the hares made good their escape. Slip
per James Grace performed his Iife-sav-
ing act, picking up one hare from its
pursuers and tossing it over a low fence,
where the hounds could not reach it.
1t was generally favorftes' day, few
OF the public choices falling to land for
their hackers. The most pronounced up
set was the defeat of Hickory Dick by
Bella Hill The latter was C to l in the
betting. She showed her speed over her
opponent and finally won by a score of
six points to five.

NOTES OF THE TRACK.

Just as everybody was talking of what
splendid rider Minder was. he seems to have
forgotten how. Is history going to repeat itself
again?
G. W. Miller, owner of Hungarian. claimed
Nigrette. Later on he swapped the mare back
TO Walter Jennings for coin, and last night
she reclined by her old fireside. What a
shame it is that every is a claiming
race?
Strange how change of track affects some
horses One day last year. December 80, the
form book says. over a slow track, Bonnie
Lissak came from tenth position and won q
six-fUrong dash galloping in u. with 109
pounds UP. Yesterday when Jim Gore stepped
off the first th-ee-quarters of a seven-furlong
run in 1:1S& and finished out in :31%, Bon
ME could not get up. And this with three
pounds less weight and the sort of a
track. Still horses not machinery, and
neither are their riders.

The weight bugaboo does not worry him
so he can enjoy the ocean breezes and
build up his vitality at the beach with

He wants to wager s160c of his own
