At the first jump Mentmore refused as nsual, while old Bob Miles amused the crowd by turning a somersault. Going up the hill Elphin was leading by forty lengths, with Jake Shipsey second ten before Hercule; At. the third jump they were going too fast for Killarney and he fell, leaving only Elphin, Shipsey and Hercules in the hunt. When well in the field Shipsey bolted, and as his bridle broke Mara ‘rolled off in the mud. At this time Elphin. was a quarter of a mile to the good, but at the next jump ecked badly and Billings rolled off aad his jorse gotaway. Hercules being the only one left came on, and to make matters more inter- esting refused the water twice before he could be induced to try it. When he did jump he} landed in the middle, right on the hard con- crete and must have jarred both himself and his rider badly. Meanwhile Ben Pope, Elphin’s trainer, was trying to catch his horse so that he might put Billings up and let him gallop over for the 3150 place money. Officer Slack, how- ever, much to the disgust of the crowd, arrested him. While Slack was busy with Pope some oue else caught Elphin, Billings remounted and finished second, half a mile behind Her- cules, THE YOUTHTUL STAKES developed a good colt in Davis & Hall's young- by Longfield-Bavaria. The manner in which he squandered his field stamps him a colt of more than ordinary ability. ‘There wasa long delay at the post caused by Tom Finley, who has already developed quite a | temper. When the flag dropped it was to an excellent start. “Spider” Anderson at once took Bavarian to the front. and the race was never in doubt, he winning in the easiest possi- ble manner from Insight, who was one length ennessean With Jay-Qu-El close up. 3 SALVINI'S RACE. The talent and the public could see nothing in the first race but Tom Hood, and he was vked all over the ring until at the close the t that could be had about him was 7 to 5. King Crab's people thought he had quite a chance, and backed their opinion, but the Crab was never in it. When Mr. Caldwell dropped the flag the order was, Hood, Salvini, King Crab, Going up the streteh and, and never being he adily by a length from Biggonet, who beat Pocatello four lengths for the pl om Hood, King Crab, and Annie Claire finishing as named. Time, 1:17. THE WANDICAP was a great race and was won amid the greatest excitement in the grand stand. Le Logas showed the way till well in the stretch, with Boaz and Bess lapped a length away. When well in the stretch the pair drew out, ‘and after 2 good tinish Hamilton landed Boaz by a short | head from Bess, who beat Le Logas four lengths for the place. Time, 1:45. It was a foregone conclusion that Patrocles would win the selling race, and as the book- only offered 1 to 3 against bis chances ic looked for a place horse to back, ud finally sottled on Litretia, while some little public money went on Wynwood, and the fol- lowers of the blue and orange piked away at Boc the handsome. When the flag fell Patrocles jumped out in’ front and won with the grentest ease by four lengths from Boc- caccio, who beat Litretia a length for the place, after a good fight.

It is evident that Manager Morrill is trying experiments with his team while away from home, He is playing first base himself, with vin right. Two of these men are almost indispensable on the team, Morrill and Carney, but Sweeny, while he has played third all right. so far, is cer- tainly not vet a league player, although he will doubtless turn out weil. It is hoped that the Senators will bring at least one game away from New York, before they return to play Boston four games, begin- ning on Frida New York leads the league, with Philadel- phia and Pittsburg second. Washington, hav- ing lost all of its games, is iast. . first base at Indianapolis, and if he does not come up to time will be released. The necessary postponement of the game be- tween the Reporters and the Policemen from yesterday to Thursday on account of the rain was a sad disappointment to quite a number of people, who made the journey to the grounds under the delusion that the eighteen. pieces of humanity were going to sacrifice their good looks and their health by scrambling around in the soft soil of the diamond. ‘The great bulk of the ticket holders, however, remained at home. NEW YORK COMMENTS. * The New York Sun says of yesterday's game: Ebright canght his first game for the Wash- ington club. Although he is a fair back stop, he goes to pieces when there are men on the bases, It was owing to his weakness New Yorks got the lead early in the game. He redeemed himself. however. with a home-run hit, when two men were on bases, and put his club where it had a chance to pull out ahead, but his weakness reappeared before the game 8 finished, and it was that which gave the Yorks their last lead, and finally the game.” he World says: “At two separate and dis- tinct periods in the game it looked as though Washington would win. Ebright, the new shington catcher, heid the game in his hands times and monkeyed with it as a Japan- ese jugg! ndles the’ flying kniv With Washington in the lead in the second inning, he tossed of victory to the home team by disastrous passed bs He then brought his club to the front again in the sixth inning with a long home-run hit into the Ro- man ruins, Once more, in the eighth inning, he gave the victory to New York by mnfting O'Rourke's foul fly, and this time the che pions clinched the gift with four runs, The Funeral of Dr. Harvey Lindsly.

The blood, laden with impurities which have been accumulating for months, moves sInezishly through the veins, the mind fails to think quickly, and the body is still slower to respond. Hvod's Sarsaparilla is just what is needed. It purities, vitalizes and enriches the blood, makes the head clear creates an appetite, overcomes that tired feeling, tones the nervous system, and imparts new strength and vigor to the whole body.
