"A SERIES OF HAIR RAISING
FINISHES AT THE TRACK.
THRILLING FINISH IN
THE SECOND EVENT.

The second event furnished another
hair-raising finish for the spectators,
and when the three leaders flashed I'M
der the wire fifteen lengths in front
of the other two entries they were
heads apart, and as several yards
space was between each abreast, it
was a hard matter for those in the
stand to tell just who was entitled to
the purse.
The event was five and a half fur
long dash, with five entries. The race
was really a three-horse affair, be-
tween Tally H., Kentucky Middle and
over Again, with over Again favorite
in the betting. She also got off first
and made all the running to the head
of the stretch where Tally H. chal-
lenged, with Kentucky Middle close
up, coming fast. The three could have
been covered with a blanket as they
struck the turn into the stretch at
terrific pace. Kentucky Middle was
next the rail- with over Again next
and Tally H. on the outside. over
Again swerved badly, carrying Tally H.
to the middle of the track. and giving
Kentucky Middle clear sailing.
Both boys on the outside horses went
to work with whip and spur. Neck
and neck they raced down past the
last furlong pole, and the great throng
rose to its feet and cheer after cheer
went up. Tally H. never faltered, and
stood the punishment gamely. Inch
by inch, he crept up on over Again,
who was beginning to falter when
within ten yards of the wire. With
one final, supreme effort the big chest
nut gelding sprang across the line a
head to the good, with Kentucky Mud

plenty in hand to land him across the
wire a winner. Ketchum was pounds
the best and could have won further

Ermack ran an impressive race, get
ting off last and closing up much
ground in the stretch, finishing a good
third to Doc Mayer. Mayer also came
strong in the stretch. but was unable
to catch the flying leader.
Red Spider who was touted for a
good thing few days ago, and played
heavily had much early speed, but
seemed short. She had many hackers.
She was left at the post the last out.
Dock Mayer opened at 3 and went to
fves.
The six furlongs were covered in

KINGFULL RAN
SURPRISING RACE

The surprise of the day was when
Kingfull. who has been performing
poorly recently ran Kohnwreath, the 8
10 favorite in the fourth to a stand
still, and only lost by a head. 1t was
a rafting good finish, and with five
more strides T. o. McBride's chestnut
gelding would have won the big end
of the purse.
Kohnwreath was looked on as pipe,
and even though 3 to was the best
that could be had about her plenty of
money went in on her. The field was
off to a good start all together.
Kohnwreath made all the running and
had to be shaken up in the stretch to
stall off Kingfull who responded gamely
to Carmacks urging.
There was heavy play on Bedlam
who finished third. Most of the money
went in on him to show. He had
to hustle in the stretch to stall off
Joe Buckley, who was coming fast aft
er losing much ground in the turn into
the stretch. Fade Meny seemed track
sore and stale.

LILLIANETTE WON
BY AN EYE LASH.

The third event, a five-furlong dash,
was another finish of the sensational
order, Lillianette and Dick Ripley,
equally favored in the betting, being at
2 to 3, racing down the stretch neck
and neck, the filly winning by an eye
lash. Pinkey B.. the best of the others,
finished third, and was coming fast.
Ripley was badly interfered with at
the stretch turn, and was nearly knock
ed from his feet, and in the crowding
lost his stride. Lillianette was we'll
ridden by Head, who made a spectacu-
lar finish with the filly.
The start was a perfect one, all
breaking together. Sinclaire took Rip
ley to the front and led all the way
until he reached the stretch turn,
where Lillianette and Pinkey B. came
rushing up for the lead. There was
considerable crowding, with Ripley in
the middle. He lost his stride, and
was soon a length behind the flying
filly. Sinclaire went to the whip and
was closing up inch by inch when they
flashed under the wire noses apart.

the decision over Tommy Feltz, of
Brooklyn, tonight, Joe Cherry of
Saginaw, Mich, earned the right to
have bout with frankie Neil, cham
pion bantam weight pugilist of the

Neil had agreed that he would meet
the winner of to-nights fight before
the Metropolitan Athletic Club of De-

hard for the decision. Cherry landed
more often than Feltz, and though
both men finished strong, Referee Ed

There was very little money put up
on the fight, and the few bets that
were made were at even money.

the decision was a rank robbery.

His age, So years, mitigates against his
recovery.

permitted to go to the post, as will
none of the other horses here under

Judge Russwurm imposed a fine OF

here under his charge will be permit

The assault was unprovoked, and there

been barred off. This is one of the
most serious infractions of rules around
race course-to engage in an alter

Whiten had an excellent chance in
