By GEORGE n. MnRRIs

Havre de Grace, Nd. April 1Z.-Dr. ].
8. Tyree, the Washington chemist and
sportsman, put over Carbide at the Havre
de Grace track at the long price Of $3.50 90
for 81 ticket, and 1850 for a similar
ticket place. A few select Washington
ians were In on the good things" and
one In particular IL known to have had
$50 on straight. For this ticket he re-
ceived in the neighborhood Of s7.4oo. The
race was at six furlongs, and Willie
Shields Top o. the Morning ruled a pro-
hibitive odds-on choice. while ClapperbiIl
and Wiseman were well supported.
Little thought or consideration was
given the Tyree colt, and he went to
the post a despised outsider. When the
barrier was sprung Top o. the Morning
showed the way closely followed by
bide about two lengths back. Rounding
the turn for home Carbide moved up with
a rush, and caught the pair. and out
gained Startling within fifty feet Of the
wire.
AS far as Mutuel prices are concerned.
today will go down in history as q record
breaker. Seven favorttes out Of as many
races were bowled over, and every winner
carried with 1t prices ranging from to
l to 145 to 1. Gut Of fourteen races run,
so far at this course, thirteen outsiders
being Ambrose.
Eddie Mcbride put over Tit-for-Tat
in the baby race at a nice price today.
Tit-for-Tat had none the best Of the
break, as he propped when the barrier
was sprung. but was quick to get going
and won going away.
Edith Bauman ran the same game race
today as she did in her last start at
Bowie. She got home by q head today
in front Of Tdna Renna and Pin Money.
