NOTED MATCH RACES
OF PREVIOUS YEARS
Contests That Will Always Be
Part of Turf History.
Fashion Defeated Boston Over Old
Union Course Nearly 80 Years Ago
Saltwater Won From Tenny at
Sheepshead in 1890.

While the match race that Man O.
| War won from Sir Barton last fall, at
the Windsor track, probably stirred up
more interest than any other dual turf
event ever staged on this continent,
there have been other notable clashes
of the kind.
Nearly 80 years ago, in the days OF
four-mile heats, there was match in
which the five-year-old mare Fashion
beat the nine-year-old horse Boston In
two successive heats at the cid UntoE
course, Long Island. This has been
written into American turf records as
the first great match race and it was
duel between North and South for $780,
900 a side.
Thirty years later the Harry Bas-
sett-Longfellow match at Saratoga was
the talk of the turf world. This was
match between southern and eastern
owners, after an unsatisfactory race
for the Monmouth cup at two and one
half miles, which Longfellow won cas-
lily. A few weeks later they met again
at Saratoga, N. Y. This time both
horses were in prime condition. There
was third horse in the race, but he
cut no figure in the running. Early in
the race Longfellow twisted the plate
on his near forefoot, but finished game
ly on three legs, to be beaten by bare
ly length at the finish.
One of the most-talked-of match
races was that between James B. Hag-
gins Salvador and David T. Pulsifer's
Tenny, at the Sheepshead Bay track
in 1890. The match was at a mile and
quarter for $1,000 side. Salvador
was ridden by Isaac Murphy, won by
inches only, although at the one-mile
mark he seemed to have the race well
in hand. Tenny, ridden by Snapper"
Garrison, made a wonderful sprint
through the final quarter Of mile,
which was covered in 25A seconds,
and the sensational finish of that race
has been written about in song and
story ever since.
The dead heat between Domino and
Dobbins and a similar finish between
Domino and Henry of Navarro were
turf events which furnished thrills for
the spectators in subsequent years.
At Pimlico, Nd, three years ago,
when August Belmont's Hourless beat
the late Wilfrid Viaux's Omar Khay-
yam in a special match race, the re-
suit came as a surprise to many thou
sands, who believed at that time that
the Canadian-owned horse was irwin
chile. The race was at one mile and
quarter, and Hourless made "a new
track record for the distance.

the smartest fellows we ever had in
the ring; not alone smart wielder of
the mitts but a smart thinker. He
made boxing business, or, in other
words, he played the game, just as
many glove men do, simply for the
coin that is in it.
But Welsh wasn't constructed like
most other fighters. For man who
reached the top rung of the ladder he
was rather frail in construction. For
that reason he found out early in his
pugilistic career that if he was to get
