De Mund was slow to break, but Upton
rushed him to the front in the first quar-
ter and opened up a gap OF two or three
lengths rounding the turn. The big horse
began to tire In the last furlong. but the

enough to win in a hard drive from Chief
Hayes. Royal Onyx was third, four
lengths back.

10. made show of Live Wire and Mar
tin Doyle. the only other starters in the
Hotel Herman Purse, at one mile. E. Du-
gan waited behind the pace with Juggler
for six furlongs, and then let the old
horse go to the front to win by five
lengths.
