Bunch Of Exciting Races.
1t was the racing card which really
accounted for the presence of the
great crowd at Kapiolani Park yester-
day. That everybody came away sat
isfed with the results of the races
goes without saying.
The officials, especially the real pro-
moter of the races-Homer Smith
worked like Trojans and though it may
be hard to believe il still there were
pulled off more races than were origin
ally on the program. The rule is in
variably the other way but yesterday
turned out an exception.
The pacing race, half a mile, natural
ly excited the greatest interest among
the turf men. No time was taken of
the first and second heats, but the
time of 1:06. Prince Cupid IS entry,
Walter p. was scratched, leaving Ha-
rold D., ]. T. Silva owner, J. Gibson
driver; W. Wood, J. F. Colburn III.
owner, driven by Colburn; Ghappo,
VIM. Larsen owner, driven by G. Ward,
and sgd Abbott, owned by DR.. G. I.
Straub and driven by b. Gallagher.
In the first heat Harold d. won by
a length ahead of w. Wood, with Sgd
Abbott and Chappo third and fourth.
The second heat went 10 w. Wood by
the prettiest and closest finish seen
here in many long day. Harold D.,
sgd Abbott and Chappo finishing in
the order named. In the third and
final heat Gibson gave Harold d. a
free rein and finished ahead of ChappO,
some three lengths in 1905; sgd Abb
bott and w. Wood coming in third and
! fourth. The winner of this race takes
a cup offered by the Fourth of July
committee.
The one-fourth mile race for Island
bred horses was won by Dora D. in
! 241a in pretty finish. Dora ID. is
owned by Medeiors and was ridden by
Quni, fourteen-year japanese jockey
of but sixty pounds weight who was
sent down from Paia, Maui, especially
to ride in this and another race which
was also won by the same mare. Buck
skin, A. Magoon owner, came IN sec.

One-half mile race, for imported
horses only Won handily by Clara G..
entered by Patawella, in 90 fiat; Racine
Murphy, l.. Warren, second and Love
dale, Caeser Comes, third. Prize, $50
What was probably the prettiest run
ming race of the afternoon was the
three eighths 90 which took the place
of the half mile three for all. Buck
skin, entered by A. Magoon, took thu
place of Racine Murphy, which was
scratched. Dora D., again ridden by
the diminutive Quni, won by half
} neck from Dixie in 3S12. The THIRD
horse was Buckskin and fourth Kalih
Girl other entries were Clara c., and
Lovedale.
The Japaense hack race was called
J off, the iehus being too busy coming
: money elsewhere in town. The drop
ping of this race was more than made
: up by the running of number of ex
citing and entertaining cowboy race
as well as polo pony race and a novel
. ty stunt described further on.
