the rest of the field have scored and
reached him on trot. Then he shoots
ahead, and usually has the pole by the time
( they have reached the quarter mark. It
was not so Yesterday. however. for in the
! first heat William Deveson's Baron Dell
took the pole and showed the way to the
three-quarter post, where Willy reached
even terms. They came down the home
stretch like a pair in double harness. but it
was easy enough for Willy 10 put several
lengths between them at the finish. The
, time was not fast in any of the heats for
( q wind which amounted almost TO gale
swept The course and the track was hard
In the next heat Willy took the lead at
the word Go" and never relinQuished his
advantage from start to finish. He trotted
the second heat in 2:10l2.
H K Devereux's chestnut mare TeaseI

she held General II. second, Alice Roose-
Welt third and Demarest fourth. Miss
Baratone drew the pole, but she made a
break almost a the getaway which put her
out CT the running The General took the
pole at the three-Quarter post and he came
down the hOmestretch at clip that dis
tanced Soprano and put Teasel in fourth
place at the wire W j Andrews sat be
hind Soprano, and in the next heat he got
Up behind TeaseI and drove her a mile
which made her eligible for second money
She was forced to divide the honOrs with
Alice Roosevelt. however, and second and /
third money was split up between them as
was fourth money between Demarest. with
his score Of 3-6. and Aquin, which finished
SIS
The first split heat race of the meeting /
was the 2-05 pace, when Ess H Kay.
black stallion By Direct Hal. was forced TO F.
abdicate in favor Of T y. Murphy's Baron I
Whips in the first heat. Ess II. Kay was
leading in the first neat. with Richard Della /
fields newly purchased Walter Hal just at
the wheel Of his sUiky. when the bay stall |
ion went up in the air and Walter Hal |
took the lead at the half mile mark He
maintained his advantage until he turned /
into the homestretch, when Baron Whips /
passed the rest Of the field and first /
place Walter " finished in second place /
in this heat and in the next heat he took |
the lead, with the BaTCn in second position.
Ess H Kay had the race practically won,
however. "a the three-Quarter post, and !
though T y Murphy urged his gelding
with whip and voice, the best he could do
was a good second.
There was a misunderstanding in the next
heat. for all Of the entries answered the
bell prepared to start in and win a heat If
they could. They were not allowed TO start,
however. and finally the two heat winners,
Baron Whips and Ess H Kay, took matters {
INTO their own hands and went away WITH
out the word. apparently oolIvlous TO the
changing Of the bell After long consulta-
ticn il vas announced to the eXpectant

would be allowed 10 stand ESs H Kay
won easily, a I'd II was apparent that ne
