.PARKV|LLE HANDICAP
MERELY A GALLOP
FOR FLEET bLANDY
Belmont Horse Beats Oxford.
Proper and Rams Horn
Cleverly.
Senator McCarren Makes a Kill
ing With His Colt
Master Lester.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK. May 25.-Blandy is run
ming in his best form again. He carried
11S pounds today and fairly ran of with
the rich Parkville handicap at Gravesend
track. Behind him, leg weary and ex-
hausted, were such fast horses as Oxford,
Proper and RAMS Horn The race was
worth 1855 to the winner. The result
of the race showed that racehorse, no
matter how fast he is. must be in per-
feet condition to win races. Blandy was
badly beaten at Jamaica by poor horses
through lack of condition. This was no
fault of his trainer, Jack Joyner. That
expert did all he could to make Blandy
ready, but the horse refused to train.
1t was only by constant racing that he
became fit. He was in good shape today
and set such fast pace from the start
that he soon had his field groggy After
the first six furlongs he merely galloped
and beat Oxford by two lengths.
RAMS Horn was the favorite, but he
cut sorry figure in the contest and fin
ished sixth. During the race he was
jumped on by Merry Lark and this in
jured the chances of both horses.
Senator P. H. McCarren won many
thousands of dollars with his colt, Master
Lester, and beat fast field of two-year-
olds in the fifth race. He made one of
his periodical plunges and forced the colts
odds from to down to even money.
Opposed to the Senator's colt was big
Tim Sullivan's Frank Lord. The political
chief of the East Side was equally con-
fident that his -year-old would win.
He sent big commission into the ring
and Frank Lord went to the post second
choice. These colts had the race between
them all the way. Master Lester showed
the way from start to finish and beat
Frank Lord in a romp by two lengths.
Summary:
First race, five furlongs-Miraza
won, Carriers second, Alto Farola

ALCOHOL MIXED WITH
COFFEE IN THE NAVY
Accused Ensign Tells Of Strange Drink
for Breakfast on the BattIeshIp
Ohio.

HONOLULU, May 25.-T III. Lindell.
ensign on the U. S. S. Iroquois, has been
sentenced to five years hard labor by
Circuit Judge de Bolt for felonious
assault. In making a plea for mercy on
the ground that he was drunk at the time
of his crime, Lindell told of getting pure
alcohol aboard the battleship Ohio, on
which he formerly served, and said that
the men drank it in their coffee in the
morning. Lindell said he secured a can
of the stuff from the paint shop and took
it aft, and that a number of the men
used it in their morning coffee. The
painter indulged until he went crazy, and
Linden himself said he was six days un-
conscious in jail
Judge de Bolt made the sentence the
occasion of temperance lecture, in the
course of which he said that no greater
benefit to the world could occur than the
complete banishment of all intoxicating
liquor, adding that the little good it does
is mixed with so much evil that 1t could
well be spared.
Lindell has a wife and child in Brook
lyn. His offense was one for which he
might have been given twenty years un-
der the laws here. He has a medal for
services in the war with Spain.

brisk pace, Harvard rowing thirty-five
strokes to the minute and Cornell thirty
six. AT the quarter-nlile stake Cornell
was in the lead and soon had pulled her
she'll one-quarter of a length ahead of
Harvard.
Shortly after this both crews reduced
their strokes slightly until at the half
mile Cornell pulled at thirty and Harvard
at thirty-two. AT the mile stage Cornell,
with her long and deliberate stroke, had
made the lead one and quarter lengths
over Harvard. Harvard kept at good
speed and at an encouraging word from
Cockswain Blagen tried bravely to re-
cover some of the lost distance.
The attempt was fruitless, however, and
Cornell continued to edge slowly away
In the last quarter of the race both crews
made magnificent squirt, but Harvard
was unable to do better than keep down
to three lengths the gain of its oppo-
