Race and Finishes First
at Hawthorne.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHICAGO, Aug. 24.-"Pa" Brad
ley's filly, Allie Virgie, furnished an
amusing incident in the first race to-
DAY at Hawthorne. Just as the field
left the barrier the mare unseated
Jockey Larsen. This did not discon-
cert her and she went along with her
beld. Cyprienne, the well-played ia
Vorlte, set the pace, with the riderless
Allie Nlrgle, we'll up, in second place.
turning for home Cyprienne led by
llVe lengths. AS the final eighth pole
was reached Allie Virgie began to
make her run. The crowd in the
grand stand cheered her on, and,
buoyed up by the applause, she gained
inch by inch, just as thoroughbreds do
at times when jockeys are using whip
and spurs.
Twenty yards from the wire Allie
Nlrgie joined Cyprienne. For mo-
ment Aubuchon began to ride his
mount, not knowing the horse about
to beat him was riderless. Amid cheers
equal to that given any Derby winner,
Allie N1rg1e crossed the line first by
a neck. Cyprienne was of course,
placed first, as Allie Virgie did not
have UP her allotted weight.
An unprecedented incident occurred
in the fifth race when a horse that
finished outside the money was dis
finished second to Exclamation, was
set back and Apple placed second.
Langford James finished fourth, but
was disqualified with San Reno and
the show money given to Farmer Jim,
which was a furlong behind the win
ner at the finish. Summary:
