which followed, an agreeable rose

was contest in which the answers

of 6 to 4

Three draws and one win were awarded
the Capital City Chess Club by the UNI
pire, w. S. Ryan. of New York. on the
four unfinished games in the telegraphic
chess match with the Brooklyn Chess
Club. This gives the match to the ia
nous Brooklyn organization by a score Of
to l. On the whole this is a fine
showing by the local club against what
Is perhaps the strongest chess club in
America. A curious feature is the fact
that Washington lost its last telegraphic
match about ten years ago against the
same club and with the identical score.
The final results:
Capital City Chess Chb-whitaker lost; Moor
man. lost: Zapoeon adjudicated draw: Walker. adju
dicated draw Lowell, sdiudicated draw; Pratt lost

at the trot by any horse at the track
this year was accomplished a few days
since by ]. A. Jones' mare, by Bale AK

the half was covered in los, and the last
quarter in 81 1-2 seconds. driven by Dick
Henchal, who has her in charge, and
who has literally entered her in purses

and owned her maternal ancestors. He
is I'd be heartily congratulated. Other
local horse news is that Herman Tyron
is much pleased with Michael Morris

good enough to trot in s:I5 or better this
year. 80 ..--...

was by the rising sire Bertini. 2:23 and

Boski was an unfortunate horse. Prin-
cess Orion was fast and game. Bred
by the late Gen. Z. F. Beaie, she was
sold when young to John Dugan. of West
Washington. Her dam was by Frank
Pierce, jr., horse that sired many good
brood mares. Princess Orloff, at death.
was upward of thirty years of age. -
The racing card of the Montgomery
County Fair Association was printed in.
The Herald of Monday last. The racing
committee annexed the local Juvenile
stakes, agreeing to pay SOD for each
stake. The stakes will give the associa-
ton two races for a nominal sum. taking
into Consideration the crowd they are
likely. to draw. 1t is reasonable to be-
iieve from what We now know. that fast
er time will be required to win each
stake than was shown last fall when
Hal Hardin won the three old stakes,
and Kushan, jr., won the two-year-old
stake. We know Of three <hree-year oids
entered that can trot miles In better than
go right now. The racing card Of the
association, in part. should suit Mont
gomenry County horse owners. and out
side horse owners as well.
