Affords Some Exciting Sport
FULL MOON WINS EASILY
Angus Cissus Captures Belle
Brandon Cup and POcatelli
Lands the Consolation Stake

Interest and enthusiasm ran high
among the large crowd at Union
Coursing Park yesterday afternoon
and the big triple event-Belle Bran
don Cup. California Plate and Consola-
tion stakes brought out some of the
fastest ones that have been seen in
action for many moons. The Belle
Brandon Cup event went to Angus
Cissus, Pocateni captured the Conso-
l;.tion stake and Full Moon won the
California Plate from Tillie r by de-
fault
When the fourth round of the latter
stake had been run down, only four Of
the best hounds remained, Tillie r,
Full Moon. Mount Rose and Sea Lion.
Sacramento Boy went out in the first
course after a great run against Tillie
r, and Mount Rose easily lowered the
oolors Of the speedy Palo Alto by
score OF IL to 4.
Mount Rose was withdrawn after
his run with PaIo Alto and Tillie R
got bye in the first round. Full Moon

interest was centered in the course
between him and Tnlie r. But TiIie
was worked hard all day and the day
before also, so her owner, w. T.
Raught. was forced to withdraw her
and therefore forfeited the stake to
Fun Moon.
Flower Girl was the favorite all the
way through for the honors in the
IN
sus proved to be dark horse and kept
coming strong all the time. He had
everything his own way up to the final
round and when he went up against
The favorite he led her all the way and
won the stake as he pleased
The Consolation stake was a hotly
contested affair and nearly every
course was wonder for excitement.
POcatelli, the favorite, was there all
the time and won without much effort.
1t looked from the first as though he
would be up against Ragtime or Lord
Brazen for the stake. Brazen beat
Ragtime in the semi final run, but
when he went up against Pocatelli he
looked like a third rater and never
scored point Following are the re-
