REPUBLIC SPECIAL
New Orleans, Nov. 25.-The favoritcs did
not have such a good thing of it to-day
at tie Fair Grounds. but the books that
got away with much worth talking about
were few and far between. Charlie Eli
son helped the unfortunates who hang up
prices by turning out two smoking hot
ores. Lady Ellison and Pawtucket. Both
finished third and the bookmakers
breathed easier.
Nearly all the winners, however. were
well played. except Lampoon. who. by the
grace of Starter Fitzgerald, bodied up a
winner at 20 10 /. He did not get off too
WELL. and ran a very fair race, but he
was vastly serveo by the fact that Federal
and Rcveille were both left at the post.
When the barrier WAS released, Cardinal
Wolsey was off flying and held his lead
TO within fifty yards of the finish. He was
very tired then and, when Lampoon came
with a rush, he could not stand IL off anu
Lampoon won.
The feature race was easy for Dick Ber-
nard, who was backed from evens to 4
TO d Optional made the early pace but
could never get away from tie favo!ite.
Dernham's mare passed il up at the three
eigbths pole and Dick Bernard went OIL
about his business. Mayor johnson was
an easy second over Au Revoir.
Jade was n pronounced fdvorite in the
fifth. but was never in the hunt. Co
to-Win raced in front TO the stretch turn.
then quit to nothing. while Janeta came
upon the outside and won in a Gailop. She
was probably the best-backed winner of
the day.
Mimosa was regarded as such a good
thing in the first race that the Eastern
division readily accepted . to 5 and less
on ha- Tla,
RED about the result. as she had things
her own way throughout. Charlie Ellison
tried TO cut a watermelon with Pawtucket
in the second race; but the best he could
fielu, came on when ready and ga!loped
home.
