BALTIMORE. Md. September 2s.-
Long shots kept up their winning streak
at Ravre De Grace today. three of them
coming over. The first to tally was Roy
al Meteor. in the running Of the mile-and-
seventy-yard race. and he paid + to l..
AS result Of the mile-and-a-sixteenth
handicap Col. Holloway was home first
and the bookies laid him at to 1. The
climax was reached when Onager romped
home first in the Observation-Disclosures
dash for three-year- -olds in the fifth event.
and his price was 10 to l.
The running of the handicap brought
surprise. for the heavily played favorite.
Patton. was beaten. However, he ran
third. Col. Holloway trailed Light O. My
Life and Chester krum for the first half
mile and then drew away into a slight
lead. Chester krum was on his heels and
refused to be shaken off. The drive in
the last sixteenth between Holloway and
Krum was an exciting one, but Chester
could never get up speed enough to pull
down the Colonel. who won by half a
length. Patton was pocketed on the far
turn and when taken to the outside lost
too much ground to get near the leaders
to challenge.
Poor work on the part of Jockey Schut-
finger probably cost Samuel Ross a race
in the two-year-old division, which was
the third number on the card. Carousel
was snatched up by Schuttinger just as
the barrier was sprung, and Montresor
got such a commanding lead that the
Wilson colt could never be overtaken.
Carousel managed to gain a little lost
ground gradually, and finally passed Jew
el Of Asia In the last furlong.
Billy Garth, who trains Ross horses,
came very near putting over a winner
in Exton in the last event, which was
for maiden two-year-olds and over the
five-and-a a-half-furlong route. Mimesis
was first of and Exton in close pursuit.
In the last furlong Exton, try as he
might. could not reach Mimess. who won
by a length. The largest crowd of the
meet was present, and Washington sent
an unusually large delegation. The Penn
sylvania ran three sections from Balti-
more and two from Philadelphia. The

Penn Rolls Up 35 Points.

PHILADELPHIA, September 2S.-Penn-
sylvania rolled up score Of 35 points
to none in the opening foot ball game
with Gettysburg College today on Frank
lin Field. The upstate players were ex-
pected to give the Philadelphia eleven a
hard tussel, but in the first two periods
they hardly afforded the home team stiff
practice, Pennsylvania making four
touchdowns. Gettysburg was very weak
in the line. In the third period the
visitors showed more spirit and kept
Pennsylvania from scoring and several
times held the heavy line. In the last
quarter. with numerous substitutes. the
"Quakers'' resumed their agsressiveness
and made their fifth touchdown. Capt.
Mercer played a fine game for Pennsyl-
vania The new rules worked smoothly.

winners of the 2.1S trot, 2.11 pace and
2.12 trot, respectively, with which the
program for the fifth day Of Columbus

sic Bee We're in higher favor than the
winner.
Belle Ashland was one of seventeen in

first heat from fourth position and won.
Belle Ashland advanced from fourteenth

out in the second heat to the front be-
fore the half was reached. From then
on until the finish she had the lead She
and Auto are Kentucky owned. Miss

Thistledoune was the first choice for the
ID trot, which drew eleven starters. He
was never beaten home and made entry
into the 10 list by stepping the second
heat in 2.O9A. Dorchester tried hard to
place, but Robert Milroi was second in
the last and Country Tramp secured sec
