ters in the first race. Hester Prynne,
Isadora, FLYING Fairy, Trumps, lsirose,
Winning Witch and Floral Park were
in the field. Isirose's chance OF victory
was destroyed by her failure TO get
away with the others. Isidora was the
early pacemaker, but weakened at the
head Of the homestretch, leaving Hes
ter Prynne, Flying Fairy and Star JAS
mine TO fight it- out. Flying Fairy
would have won but for the interfer,,
ence of Hester Prynne, which crossed
her A sixteenth Of a mile out, forcing
Davies 10 pull over. Before Davies
succeeded In righting the mare star
Jasmine gained a lead Of head, which
she held TO the finish.
In the last dash Of five furlongs and
a half Major McDowelps Dark Flower
met Sea Shell, which had only recently
recovered from a spell Of sickness, and
catching her in the homestreteh, after
she had led for half mile, beat her
home. Miss Fielder was fairly close

Although Major Mcdowell did win two
nurses The day was not without dis

Mcdowell that it was improbable that
Delano would race again.

RIDING OF CLAVER
MARS A GOOD RACE
Major Mcdowell Wins Twice,
but Loses a Good Horse
at Saratoga.

Saratoga, n. Y, Aug. 6-The fastest
mile run in the East all season was
covered here this afternoon by Ricn-
ard 7. Wilson's four-year-old Tartar,
when he won the historic Delaware
Stakes, in the presence of crowd of
$500 persons.
With 100 pounds on his back, the
son of Ogden-Yankee Sister covered
the eight furlongs in 1897 3-5, beating
by one-ffth of a second the time hung
out after Buskins victory in the Met
ropolitan Handicap at Belmont Park
away back in the spring. And his per-
Torrance was in every respect credit
able, because he met about the best
lot of milers the seasons racing has
seen at the barrier.
Buckhorn, the winner of two of the
great handicaps; Ten Point, Gamer
Frederick L., His Majesty, Surprising
and Hedge were behind him at the
finish. Tartar's victory was not ak
pected by the majority OF the talent.
Although Tartar won fairly and
squarely, the race was not truly run.
Claver, a brand new jockey from UP m
Canada, shot Robert Bradley across in
front of the field at the elbow of
the chute and crowded nearly every
thing that had a chance into the fence.
Surprising, Punch Bowl, Frederick J..
and Hedge we're the greatest suffer-
ers. None of them but Punch Bowl
had a chance TO run at any stage OF
the journey, and he did not get out
of the zone of interference until the
field was we'll in the turn that leads
to the home corner.
Claver got six days and lost his badge
for the term of his suspension for
this bit Of rough riding. The pace for
quarters a mile was cut out by
His Majesty, but Tartar got to the
Cochran candidate at the turn fo-
home and beat him to the judges after
a spirited drive. Punch Bowl brought
up third, and it is not improbable that
he would have won if he had had 4
chance to run in the carly part Of the
race.
The Delaware, an oldtime Saratoga
feature, has been won by such good
horses as Blues, Chuctanunda, Molly
Brant, Dandelion, Sir John Johnson,
Lahore and Field Mouse, and Tartar's
time is the record for the race. His
contribution to the Wilson stable ex-
chequer by his victory was sl,655.
The steeplechase handicap at two
miles fell to Mrs. Payne Whitney's
good Ben Brush four-year-old Ballet
which met and defeated Juverence,
Abdon, Meadow Lark and Bill Andres
Will Allen rode the Ben Brush four
yesr-old, which was favorite, and she
jumped perfectly, taking the lead
from Meadow Lark at the end of a
mile and a half. and finally withstand
ing the belated challenge of Juve-
renee.
Major Thomas Clay Mcdowell, OF
Lexington, took two races in the
course of the afternoon, the first with
the fve-year-old Ogden mare. Star
Jasmine and the last with the Pla-
nudes filly, Dark Flower.
Star Jasmine, an outsider in the
betting, beat bunch of feet mares of
the three-and-up brigade at three-qusr-

ure-Red Feather a
Star Airedale.

Newport, r. l., Aug. 6.-The annual
show Of the Rhode Island Kennel Club
opened at the much lauded Convention
Hall here to-day, and the innovation
proved to be not quite so popular as
had been expected. NUMBER OF the
oldtimers expressed the opinion that
the Casino, IL not so spacious, was
more cosey. and it was rumored that
the next show would move back to the
old venue again.
Among the spectators was August
Belmont, the president of the American
Kennel Club. Mr. Belmont was greatly
taken with Mrs. Tyler Morse's Old Eng.
lish sheepdog, Champion Slumber, and
pronounced him, after a careful inspec-
ton, the handsomest dog he ever saw.
His opinion was substantiated later,
when Henry Jarrett pronounced him
the best dog in the show. Thomas Law
sons Champion Dreamwcld Centaur
was reserve.
Boston terriers drew the largest en-
try. The best Of the dogs was Bos-
tonian Model. and in bitches Winsome
Witch led. In Airedales a newcomer
appeared in c. +. Nelson's Rosecroft

German police dogs attracted much
attention and were well judged, Mrs.
Rubino winning in dogs, with Arthur
Won Konzigdorf and Benjamin Thrupe
in bitches. with Champion Herta Won
Ehrengrund, who afterward won special
for the best German police dog in the
show.
Pekingese were quality collection.

Twice in the final set the captain OF
the British Isles team was within q

back again by the Australasisn captain,
who rose to a supreme effort just when
IL looked as if victory was 70 so to his

Rarely have international matches

chances after he got there. Parke
was enjoying one of his rare streaks,
however, and his passing strokes capt
ured the crowd, which cheered him
generously.
Playing in the form that enabled
him to defeat Brookes in Australia IN
1912, Parke ran out the second set
at 6-3.
The inscrltable Brookes started tae
third set in the same easy, deceiving
style, Looping to the net, engaging IN
duel for the position with Parke,
and then repeating the performance,
point after point, game after game.
When Sail had been called Brookes,
playing beautifully and handling all
Parke's cannon-ball drives by a deft
turn of his racquet, first right, then
left, took the LIST three games and
the set, at Go.
Brookes's service was the greatest
of his game. He played with rare
skill. and poor Parke never knew on
which side the ball was going to land.
Overhead, however, the Australasan
was weak-weak and soft-yet Parke
did not dare to lob, but stuck to his
fast driving.
1t looked to the spectators as Il
Brookes deliberately let the fourth
set 60, for he only succeeded in get
ting one game, the sixth. But the fact
is the great player was firing fast,
whereas the sturdy Parke was as
strong as when he started.
Two sets all, and Brookes showing
signs of the struggle, with Parke
smiling genially and perspiring pro-
fusely. The Australssian captain soon
ran into lead of three games to one,
and it looked like the beginning Of
the end.
Parke electrified the thousands
itching the battle by taking the
next four games in a row with a
steady bombardment Of passing drives
down Brookes's de courts.
The Australasisn seemed on the verge
of utter tatigu', and almost everybody
expected to see Parke take the mateh.
Twice the Irishman was within point
of the match, in the ninth and teath
games. but Brookes. making one of
those finishes for which he is noted,
fought desperately for the points, and
won four straight games, giving him
the last set At Is and the match.
Brooke had overcome what seemed
almost impossible odds against one of
tn worlds greatest players, but it
was only by the narrowest of mar
gins, and the Australasian captain
looked greatly relieved as he shoox
hands with his opponent.

largest of the week, as a majority Of
