McChesney and Other
Former Stars
Compete

SHEEPSHEAD BAY, N. Y, Sept. g.
Not less than thirty thousand people
took advantage of the holiday and
spent the afternoon of Labor day at
the beautiful grounds of the Coney Is
land Jockey Club. Two good stakes
were on the card besides four other
events of considerable interest, and the
day passed off to the satisfaction of
all, even though the favorites were
beaten in three of the six races. The
betting ring swarmed with eager spec
ulatorS with commissions from the
clubhouses and grandstand.
By far the most important race of
the day was the Ocean handicap, at
one mile, in which nine well known
racers started, including the once great
McChesney, still required to carry as
much weight as If he were really the
McChesney of last year; the patched
up Kentucky Derby winner of two
years ago, Alan-a-Dale; Colonial Girl,
conQueror of Hermis in the $4,000
Worlds Fair handicap at ST. Louis;
High Chancellor that eccentric racer;
New York II, Adios, Collector Jessup,
Dolly Spanker and that sterling mare,
Dainty. There was an exciting finish
between Dainty and Alan-a-Dale, the
former winning by a head, with Dolly
Spanker good third. Summary:
