4 “MONMOUTH PARK. Capital Racing at Long Branch and Fine Attendance. FASHION AND FICKLE FORTUNE. ur Interesting Contests and the Favorites Beaten Three Times. Searcher, Ozark, Bob Woolley and Di- avolg the Winners. Excellent sport, a geod attendance and genial weatber were the prominent characteristics of the meeting at Monmouth Park yesterday. In- ceed, it might well compare with any of its pre- decessors in polmt of pleasure, excitement and enthusiasm, and apart from the betting fra- ternity, whose disease 1s chronic 365 Gays in the year, few present at the races yesterday tailed to appreciate the delightful and mvigorating sur- roundings, the admirable arrangements, the von- testa, and, above all, the harmony and good feel- Ing that prevailed throughout It was a glorious Gay, and the events on the card were suMcieptly attractive to bring together a numerous asgem- biage. What with the large complement frem New York, conveyed to the scene by both boat and train, and the avasually large attendance from the Branch itself, the track and its vicinity wore an exceedingly animated ap- pearance, even long bdelore the hour an- bounced for the first race. The grand stand, from which @ splendid view can be ob- tamed of the entire course, was thronged with ladies; and, as the contests were altogether ofan exciting nature, It may de inferred 'hat they were inverested in the resuits. A band of music ‘ent its aid to the general feeling of enjoyment, and if music had any charms a3 ail to soothe the savage breast it is to be hoped that the charming strains ofthe trombone had their traditional effect upon the an‘ortunstes who pad taken the wrong “tip.” The tip, 1t should be noted, is a great institution in its way, though it is to be regret ted that pro- fane language often follows ita possession, As a rule old gentlemen—tnat is, gentlemen of expe- rience on the turf who are versed in pedigree and blood relations since the days of the food —these ancient prognosticators are full of “tips,” and only to confidentizl friends do they impart the Seeret that is to open the way to fortune. Strange as it may seem, however, the “tip’’ ‘es Mke the phiosopner’s stone—something we often read about, but rather seldom see. A ereat dea! of mouey changed hands yesterd: The scenes in the victnity of the poot selling es- sablishment were oj the usual character, and, a8 on preceding days, favorites commanded a large mare of attention, “How did you make out?” was just as familiar as “How do you dof? In- feed, few had time for che customary salutation, and from noon until the last race was terminated the bustle incident to the occasion was main- tained. For those who are fond of snch fan as the Southern negro can dest dispizy the fence of the qoarterstreich is the best piace.

The track was in very good order for racing; not remarkably fast, but safe and sure. The weather was very suitable for fast time, the sun shining brightly, with a \empering breeze wafting over the course during the afternoon. Four races Were on the card, the first a dash of a mile, the second the Ocean Hotel Stakes, one mile and three-quarters, for three-year-olds; the taird mile Beats, and the fourth a hurdle race of two miles, The first race—the Trial Purse—had five entries, comprising Jo Donabue’s bay horse Cariboo, 5 years oid; R. W. Cameron’s bay mare Inspiration, | 4 years old; John T. Chamberiin’s bay nily Ver- Dango, 8 years old; Kobinson, Morgan & Co.'s bay | colt Searcher, 3 years old, and J. 3. Uattanack’s | bay coit Selaps, 3 years ola. Searcher was a great favorite over the field. He won the race in fine style, Inspiration second, Selaps third, The time of the mile was the fastest that has been made at this meeting—1:44%—and may be set down as most excellent considering the condition of the track. The second race was the Ocean Hotel Stakes, for three-year-old colts and filles, to carry 9 lbs., one mile and three-quarters, The stakes closed with thirty-five nominations, four of which came to the post, These were A. P. McGrath's chestnat colt Ans tides, by Leamington, Gam Sarong; John F. Cham- bderlin’s bay coit Tow Ocbiliree, by Lexington, dam Katona; Thomas ruryear & ©o.’s brown colt Leader, by Leamington, dam Jessie Dixon; Joho M. Marney’s brown colt Ozark, by Pat Malloy, dam Sunny South, Aristides wasso great 4 favorite that he was left out of many of the pools and the other horses #014 without him. Pools sold without Aristides had Ozark for tavorite, Tom Ochiltree second choice, Leader fetching very small figures, Ozark took the lead soon after the drum was tapped, and was never dedim the race. He Won im the easiest possible manner, Aristices being unable to get near him. Leager doled as he came into the homestretch avd lo: consider. anole ground, but notwithstanding this mishap, ‘was close up to Arisudes at the finish, Tom Ochil- tree was fourth.

Getting imo straight work on the homestretch, Leader bolted across the track, at which time Aristides’ jockey was using the whip, it being evident that the colt wes ia troabdle, A moment more and it was plain that Ozark was to de the winner, a8 he was running well in hand, while all the oihers were being uselessly punished.

THE NATIONAL GAME. ar leading educed WONDERFUL GAME BETWEEN THE MUTUALS AND THE ST. LOUIS CLUB. The most extraordipary game of base ball of the present season and one of the most remarkable in the record of pro essional contests was played on tne Union Grounds yesterday. The centestants were tne St. Louis Cluo and the New York Mu- | tuais, The xudience was one of the largest seen on the grounds tills season, and the splendid play of both pines called for whe beartiest cheers and clapping of hands, while at certain stages of tne | game hats were sent flying into the air as tokens of the uncontroiabe excitements under which their owners labored, The game was the fourth | of the series, the St. Louis Club having won the | others, on theirown grounds, by ibe respecuve scores of § to 2, $ lo 2 and 11 to 2, In yesterday's game St. Louls lost the toss, and | therefore were first to the bat. The first four innings resulted in blanks ‘or both sides, the fielding being unexceptionadle. In the fftn tn- ning Booth and Nelson scored runs for the Mu- tuals on their own fine batting, aided by base hits of Matthews, Gibrey and Holdsworth, Ia this inaing, through a misunderstanding, nobody ran jor Matthews, and although bis kit was @ clear one-baser he was nabbed at first base, a piece of stupidity that probaoly cost the Mutuals tne game. In the sixtn inning Cutnbert talued an unearped run jor St, Louis, which the Matuals offset with thiee runs, ail earned by the hard basting of Hicks, Bootu, Nelsou, Giuney ana Hoids- worte.

The Sailing Qualities of the Vese- sol Admirably Tested. Madeleine Wins the Schooner and Vindex the Sloop Prize. The sun, which this morning arose in tts splendor, was pecullarly acceptadie to the damsels on shore, but was discouraging to the yachtsmen afloat, as it indicated diminished chances of a breeze, and this was wanted to make the Cape May regatta a grand success. A fatality seemea to be connected with yacht races here, In 1871, when the experiment of the first reunion was made, & dense fog caused repeated post- ponements, and now tle absence of wind was very provoking. The yachtsmen, however, were early preparing for the contest, hoping that the light air from the west ward was but the introduction 0 a iresh preeze that wonld test the sailing qualities of the racers, The officers of the squadron early returned {ro/ the breakiast given them by the Regatta Com- mittee at Congress Hall, and the Brooklyn yachts found their way in good season from the inside anchorage, of the steamboat dock, to the start- ing poins in front of the hotels, Allon shure was excitement and interest, The ladies came down to the beach in countless numbers, aad were de- lighted with the appearance of everything on the water. Great attention was directed to the move- ments on board the yachts, and whether it was the massive Mohawk or the saucy Eva, there were pleasant remarks for all, Approaching tea o’clock the Tallapoosa, with the Commodore on board, splendidly dressed with bunting, steamed around to her position outside a stakeboat, and auchoring, fired tne first gun asa signal to get ready. At 10n, 28m. every sailor on the fleet was busy asa bee, aud on the alert for orders to commence the race. THE COMPETING YACHTS. , The yachts entered were a3 ‘oliows:— THR SCHOONERS.
