H0ratius Is Beaten a Nose
by SchoOlmate at Haw-
thOrne Track.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHICAGO, June 24.-About 1000 peo-
pie attended the reopening of Haw-
thorne to-day and the booknnakers
were kept busy during the afternoon.
The track was apparently fast, al
though lumpy. The weather was clear
and hot. Burleigh, from S. c. Hill
dreth's stable, and the colt on which
he had built hopes of winning the
American Derby had he not gone lame,
took the feature event of the card.
The race was a six furlong sprint,
which was partially ruined by
scratches. Burleigh was made a red
hot favorite at 13 to 10. backed from
to 5.
The best finish of the day came in
the fifth race when Schoolmate. at
to l. beat Horatius. the to favor
ite. Horatius had all the worst of the
weights and the start, which was only
fair. Horatius was cut off twice on
the back stretch and was apparently
in a hopeless pocket. Entering the
stretch he was last. but Big Bill
Knapp set to work like demon and,
riding the best race he has put up
on the Chicago tracks this season,
managed to land his mount second by
a scant nose. In another jump Ho-
ratius would have won. Three favor
ties and two second choices won. Sum-
