 New Orleans January 27.--The 2-year- old black, who ran an excellent race the last time out, gave a surprising exhibition of his powers at the Fair Grounds to- day. Going to the post, the colt unseated Jockey Frank ONeil and ran away six furlongs. He was led back, Jockey Free man substituted, and won easily. Miss Custis fell soon after the start and break ing a leg was destroyed. Hannibal Bey, St. Valentine, Columbia Girl and Charlie Thompson were the winning faVorites. Phil Finch shouldering top weight and fairly we'll supported, won the New Or leans city handicap at one and one-six- teenth miles and worth S1650 to winner, very cleverly. DeReszke, the well back ed favorite, was sadly deficient in speed. The Owners handicap. the third event. was practically a two-horse race, St. Valentine outgaming Goldsmith and beat ing him out a head at the end.
