The San Francisco call., 1904-06-15
Defeats Africander and Eu-
genia Burch, Running the
First Mile in 1::39 1-5.
Special Dispatch to tn. Call.


GRAVESEND, June 14.-Three of the
five starters in the Brookdale Handi-
cap to-day are engaged in the Subur-
ban on Thursday and OF these three
Hermis alone made an excellent show
ing. He won easily, running the first
mile in 1:39 Is and the full nine fur
longs in 1852 As.
For about seven furlongs Redfern
had a stiff pull on Hermis. After that
the pull was not quite so strong and
at end Of the nine furlongs, the last
Of which was run in 13 3-5 seconds,
there were many who said he would
not stay the Suburban distance. In
this his owner is unfortunate, for the
weather has been all against Hermis,
who needs a warm atmosphere to help
fit him for competition.
Judged by his easy defeat of African
der and Eugenia Burch neither should
be near Hermis at the finish of the
Suburban Hermis' fractional times
to-day were: Furlong, IL As seconds
quarter, "a As seconds; three furlongs,
80 As seconds; half mile, 40 secoAds;
five furlongs, 1:01 six furlongs,
1:13 2-6: seven furlongs, 1:26 1-5; one
mile, 1:SS Is; full distance, nine fur
longs, 1852 As. This is a shade slower
than the time made in 1902 by Morn
ing Side when she won. The track rec
ord is 1852, made by Contend two years
ago. Summaries:
