which caused much OF the best racing to
be in the middle and on the outside Of the
course The track could not have been
called fast. but the improvement over
conditions Of the day before was so great
that many marveled that so great !,
change could have taken place in SO short
a time

made that seriously affected the sum

Our Nugget was third and paid as high
as > 70 for show. He was completely

Ciief Bartlett, the third horse to nose

tast-going finisher. Troxier waited until
a little too late to make his run or else

Silicic the Good Thing.
Myles O'connell had the lions share of
the good wishes in the five-and a Ealf- fur
long dash that furnished the sport in
the fifth race. Myles O'Connell had
nothing In the race TO beat but Lucille
R., but Mr.. Hutchinson's chestnut mare
was raced into absolute submission and
was several lengths away at the end.
Silicic. who was entirely disrega.ded, paid
big money for show. Grandissimo Sir
Edward and ChippeWayan were all liked
but We're o,Itcllssed by the tried and
true entry from ". r. Carson's barn.
The worst upset the public suffered
came with Hibernicas poor showing in
the distance race Of the day, a run of a
mile and & sixteenth Hibernica raced
for six furlnngs as If he were far tie
best of the lot. but he wore down when
Warner Griswell overlook him and col
lapsed utterly. Eibernica opened at 10
to 1. but an early plunge quickly cut this
figure in half. and he rated with Dona-
ton, the favorite, at post time. Lois
Cavanagh was magniflcently ridden by
TroxleI. and got the second best bit OF
the purse. Ornamosa was third. The de-
feat of Donation was a surprise, but
nothing to compare with the jolt suf-
fered when Hibernica was beaten War
ner Griswell was known to a good many
at the track, and those who had fol-
lowed him in seasons past were we'll re-
paid for their trouble.
