~ 6 NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, JULY 5, 1879.-WITH SUPPLEMENT. MONMOUTH PARK. First Day of ths Furst Summer Meeting of the Monmouth Park Association. A MULTITUDE OF SPECTATORS. Six Exciting Races—Annie Augusta, Rosalie, Baronet, Jericho, Bramble and Danicheff the Winners. As early as six o'clock yesterday morning hun- dreds out of the thousands who were at Long Branch began to show themselyes about the bal- conies of the many hotels waiting anxiously for their breakfast bells to ring, so that they might get off to the race course, four miles away, to find out, if possible, which was the best horse to lay their money on. Every kind of vehicle—and the Jerseymen have almost every kind that human in- genuity could invent—was brought into requisi- tion to take the people to thecourse. The races were announced to begin at two P. M., but at nine A. M, the gates at the track were open, nd the admirers of turf sports began to gather. At that early hour many of the trainers of the various stables had not got through with the morning gallops of their horses; the saloon people were jumping about put- ting their several departments in the most attractive shape. The natives ‘to the manner born” were evi- dently the most patriotic of the crowd, the old fire passing from sire to son, As an illustration, a good tized Jersey youth, with homespun suit and wide rimmed straw hat, passed through the crowd uncon- scious that any one noticed him, with a “ong nine” In his mouth, He would tuke from his coat pocket a firecracker about every five minutes, light it with his cigar, throw it on the grass, and, giving & jump at the explosion of the cracker, would skip along with the happy feeling that he was celebrating ima proper manner the anniversary of his country’s independence. Jerseymen are horsemen also, as well as patriots, and they have bred some of the best racers that ever ran in this country. William Gibbons imported Trustee, the sire of Fashion, that beat Boston, four mile heats, over the Union course, snd who also begot Revenue, the sire of many of the best race horses this country has ever produced, Commodore Stockton, snother Jersey man, imported Mercer, a son of Emelius, and gave the services of the horse to all his neighbors, |#4 which had the effect of producing a class of service- able animals that can be seen even at the presont day doing all kinds of productive work. One of a team yesterday morning drawing a heavy barouche from Long Branch to the track with a load over the heavy roads in quick time, and when asked its age the dri- ver said it was two years and 4 half old. It had not turned # hair with the journey of four miles, and no doubt helped its companion to many more jour- neys during the day. So much for thoroughbred blood in New Jersey. But to the races, Punctually at two o'clock the bell sounded for the firnt race, which was a dash of three-quarters of » mile, with allowances for maidens of all ages. Five edme to the post and the race was won handily by Mr. G. L, Lorillard’s chestnut filly Annie Augusta, as we predicted in yesterday’s paper. The Puryear stable crowd made a bull of Bulwark, ason of Bonnie Scotland, who had given them a private trial under a fast watch, and he turned out to be, as one of his enthusiastic admirers and losers called him, “s duffer; which is no name for him!” The second race—the Hopeful States for two-year olds—was one of those things that ‘a feliow cannot under- stand.” Thirteen came to the post, and while the young things were gallivanting about ever so many lengths apart when the starting judge dropped his flag. Everybody was amazed, but nobody more than Messrs. Withers and G. L. Lorillard. Mr. Withers’ filly had the best of it, Mr. Lorillard’s Rosalie second and none of the other eleven were inthe race. Rosalie overtook Mr. With- ere’ Castagnette filly on the homestretch and won the race: but none of the others “had a shy for their white alley.” The third race was for gentlemen riders, and the way that Mr. Belmont Purdy showed the other gentlemen how to wait and win” in arace ‘was something that will not be soon forgotten. The fourth race, the Long Branch Handicap Sweepstakes, adash of a mileanda quarter, was won in gallant style by Mr. D. J. Crouse’s three-year-old Jericho, = youngster that has been working his way in the esti- mation of turfmen during the season. He has met in thestakes and has been beaten by Harold and Spendthrift, but neither his owner nor his friends considered the colt disgraced by being in such com- pany. When asked yesterday morning what he thought of his colt’s chances in the present race Mr. Crouse emphatically replied, “He cannot be beat, sir, in this race;” and still we do not believe that the ld gentleman laid a dollar on his horse. He is not “of that sort.” ‘The fifth race—the Ocean Stakes — was won in s canter by Bramble, the others being unable to make him stop pricking his ears nor make him shut his mouth during the race. ‘The sixth race fell to Danicheff; not that Danicheff was the better horse, but because Una and Ken- ney ran themselves to # standstill in a mile and a half and went back to Danicheff on the last quarter, The seventh race on the card did not come off on ac- count of tailure to fill. The following were THE OFFICERS OF THY DAY. Judges—Messrs. Oden Bowie, Carroll Livingston, D, D. Withers, A. Belmont, Jr., and A, Cammack. Timers—Messrs. J. G. K. Lawrence, J. G.

The horses ran in this order up the three-quarter track, and as they entered the regular course at the half-mile pole Kadi had added somewhat to his lead of four lengths, Gallagher one length in front of Colton, Jr., Baronet two [oy or further off, Mr. Purdy knowing exactly what he had under him, Kadi kept gap of four lengths open around the lower turn, and came into the homestretch with all ot that advantage, Baronet second, Mr, iy at this time beginning to put in his work; Colton, Jr., third, Gallagher fourth. The race up the homestretch was highly interesting, The manner that Mr. Purdy came away at the right moment and won by a length was applauded to the echo by the crowd of spectators, Kadi was three lengths ahead of Gallagher, who was four lengths in advance of Colton, de. ‘Time, 1:2234. ‘THE FIFTH RACE was the Long Branch Handicap ‘Sweepstakes of $50 each, half forfeit, and only $10 if declared by June 27, with $500 added; the second to receive $150 out of the stakes.

Jericho showed the way around the lower turn, closely followed by Zoo Zoo, Vagrant a good third, Oriole fourth, the others struggling on, but practically out of the race. Entering the homestretch Zoo Zoo and Jericho had the race to themselves, and it was good betting as to which would get home first.

After a number of ineffectual attempts to get the horses off on account of the fretfulness of Belinda the flag fell to an even start, Bramble taking the lead, Monitor second, Susquehanna third, Lancewood fourth, Belinda fifth. The horses ran rapidly up to the judges’ stand, end as they passed that point Monitor was showing his nose in front, Belinds second, Lancewood third, Bramble fourth, Susquehanna fitth.

Going down tne back- stretch Kenny took sides with Una, and they ran head and head past the half-mile pole and into the lower turn, when by this time they had whipped each other and began to “come back” to Danicheff. ‘The latter kept on at a rating stride, and inch b: inch he gained on them up the homestretch, until at the seven-furlong pole he had practically won the race.

SECOND DAY OF THE INAUGURAL MEETING— FIVE THOUSAND PERSONS PRESENT—GLEN OGLE, IKE BONHAM, ALLEVUER AND DANDY THE WINNERS. The races at Brighton Beach Fair Ground yester- day were satisfactorily decided, and a gathering of fully five thousand, one-half being ladies, seemed particularly well pleased with the several contests. During the past week, the track has been greatly im- proved, and in due time it will be made as safe as any in this, vicinity, and not behind them in show- ing creditable time. The management, so soon as practicable, should provide a place for reporters, that they may witnoss the races without interruption, and the sandy stretch in front of the grand stand should be gravelled and rolled, or otherwise laid out, so that walking over it may be a mat- ter of comfort. It is now very unsightly and particularly disagreeable, especially to ladies. Everybody knows it requires much time to round off all the many things about s new race course, but a few matters are in such cases #0 urgently needed by the people who patronize the place and by those whose business calls them there, that no time should be lost in putting them well to rights. With careful supervision the Brighton Beach Pair Grounds may be made one of the most popular of the many attractions at Coney Island. Four races were on the programme. The first of these was a dash of three-quarters of a mile for a “purse of $300. Five appeared at the post, and 8. D Bruce's Gien Ogle proved the winner. The second event was » dash of one mile and a half, and four faced the starter. J. McMahon’s Ike Bonham won without difficulty. Four also responded for the third contest, a dash of one mile and an eighth, Ayres & Sutcliff's Allevuer capturea it with good deal in hand. A handicap steeplechase wound up the day’s pleasant sport. Five ran, and amid much excitement Bennett & Co.’ Dandy finished first. The judges of the day were Messrs, A. G. Swain, C. 8. Green and M.G. Thomson. The timers were Messrs. Harmon Storms and James White; tne starter, Mr. Simeon Hoagland, and the secretary, Mr. R. R. Wheatly. THREE-QUARTERS OF A MILE. The opening race was a purse of $300, of which $50 to the second horse; entrance free; horses not having won this year a race of the value of $1,000, aliowed 5 Ibs.; those beaten, and not having won at all, allowed 10 lbs.; maidens allowed 15 lbs.; dash ot three-quarters of a mile. 8.

Bay Rum soon assumed the lead, but before reaching the half mile pole he began to falter, when Glen Ogle showed the way, At the ppper end of the bend into the homestretch Glen Ogle for # second or so yave way to Allevuer, but then again jumped to the tront, and coming along very nicely won by two lengths. second, Miss Malloy third, Higgins fourth aud Bay Rum fifth.

The horses were started in full view of the spectators, and then runuing across the field in & northwesterly direction they soon met the tirst obstacle, a brush fence, which all got sately over, ‘The second jump was quickly reached, also brush fence, when Dandy was in front, aud all fol- | lowed his example of clearing it prettily but Pilot, who, not being ia jumping humor, refused it. His | jockey made him tace the music, however, but the ground lost was impossible to recover if the Jeaders escaped accidents, The horses made the circuit of the inner field to the westward with the several leaps creditably taken, when they wheeled for the water jump, in front of the grand stand. All cleared it, including Pilot, who was being sent along, though victory in his case was out of the question. Then they ran to tne wall, almost a fur- long to the eastward of the water jump, with Dandy leading, Brave Allie second, Ventilator third and Lizzie D fourth. Dandy landed safely, as did all the others, but Pilot again refused, The same ground was again gone over, Dandy leading all the way, though Ventilator now went into second e and stuck there persistently. The second time the water jump was reached the citement was intense. Dandy shot it well, then Venulator, next Brave Allie and last Lizzie D. The wall was also safely interviewed by Dandy and Ventilator, but Brave Allie came to grief, and, stumbling, threw his jockey, though without With two other jumps the horses went on tne track near the quarter pole, and then raced home Dandy stayed well, and though Ventilator tried hard for the front Dandy beat him out a length, Ventilator ten lengths away from Lizzie D, third, and Pilot a long way off, fourth.

J., July 4, 1879. The Long Branch Gun Club christened their new shooting park, near Deal Beach station, this morning by pigeon and glass ball shooting, The club is made up of New York gentlemen and members of the New York Gun Club, whose new shooting park is at Bergen Point, There the spring and fall shooting matches are held. In the hot summer months the larger portion of the New York Gun Club members take up their residence at Long Branch, and for a long time they have felt the need of a shooting ground in closer proximity’ than the one at Bergen Point. Consequently they selected the site for a park opposite Deal Beach station and only a few miles from Long Branch. The grounds are beautifully situated. A pretty fence surrounds the Park, which has gates of admittance for persons and equipages. Near the entrance a handsome club house of Swiss chalet style of archi- tecture is being built, a canopied pavilion answer- ing that purpose for the present. The club house wiil have upper parlors and balconies for the use of the lady friends of the members of the club who visit the Park to witness the sport of the flying targets. The traps are within forty yards of the club house, the boundary hue of eighty yards being one yard inside of the fence. The christening party arrived early in the morning, for the aim of the Long Branch boys was to get through the celebration in time t@ yive them a chance of ut- tending the races at Monmouth Park. There was a notable qunering: of gentlemen, and the ladies were present in numbers. EVENTS DECIDED, In honor of the event the members shot off s eral pigeon sweepstakes and glass ball ritle match Mrs. Arthur Sewell, the duughter of Mrs. Lester Walluck, doing akind and pretty act in keoping the scores of the first day’s meeting in the new shooting park, A five-bird sweep opened the day's port, nine going to the traps. ours. Edgar .Mur- hy, Dr, Zeliner, Joseph Lee and Walter Green illed all, the ties being decided on next sweep. The next was at three birds, the same gentlemen tic- ing again, when they agreed to divide the stakes. Dr. Zellner and Mr. Murphy then shot a match ten glass balls for $25 a side, the men using a Winchester repeating rifle, the glass balls being thrown crossways by hand. Both men tied on the first ten balls, the ties to be decided by tive extra balls. Before the tie was decided both men shot at thirty balls, making one of the most remarkable scores on record, Senator Murphy’s youthtul ‘Will- iam Tell” winning the match. PIGEON SHOOTING. Morgan's Statioy, N. J., July 4, 1879, The New York Gun Club and the Middlesex Gun Club held several shooting matches near this place to-day. The birds were good, and, although a stiff breeze prevailed, the scores very creditable. C. Mil- ner, of New York, won the first sweepstakes at five birds, H. Levy taking second money. In a ten-bird sweepstakes Messrs. Levy, Hazlet, Platt and Woods killed nine each, and on the shoot-off Levy won first money and Hazlet second. In a seven-bird sweepstakes Mr. Jacques, of the Middlesex Club, killed six birds, capturing first money. A team match was then shot between Levy, Woods, Platt and Milner, of New York, and Jacques, Selven, Oths and Tompson, of the Middlesex Club, at 15 birds each, the New York team winning by a score of 52 to 4% Referee, Charles F. Kellett. “CATBOAT RACE, INTERESTING EVENT PROMOTED BY THE CITY GOVERNMENT OF NEWPORT. [Bx TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD,] Newrour, R, I., July 4, 1879.

ROLLINS’ BICYCLE RIDE FROM NEW YORK TO SARATOGA, ‘The thirty gentlemen belonging to the Boston Bicycle Club, who were arrested by the police of the “Hub” last Saturday for “breaking the peace of the Lord’s day,” and the 140,000 amateurs of the bicycle in England, to say nothing of the public generally, will be delighted to hear that, up to present writing, Mr. Rollins, who left this city for Saratoga on Thursday morning, is in good health and fine working form. He was encountered yesterday afternoon at Sing Sing by # Heap re- porter just previous to his start for Poughkeepsie, where @ similar misfortune awaits him. The young gentleman is not a little displeasod with the notoriety given to his ip in the papers. He told the reporter that he had not ex- ected and did not desire the notices given him, "I ave been spending my summers at Saratoga for SS ir. Koliins, “and growing tired of the ats, tue cars and horseback riding as ing on his neck, and rolled over | ® means of getting there I concluded to go on a bicycle, I promised to meet some of the boys who Pace the aquatic race there on the 9th of July, and id them I would go up ona bicycle.

He does not intend to make a record” and is tanwalling by this novel way merely for enjoyment. the journey has any object at all it is the formation in New York city of aclub. The young amatenr hopes that his success on this trip, and he intends to be~ successful, will induce others to ven- ture on the “flying wheel. Newark, N.

The road selected by Mr. Rollins is 192 miles long, and when covered will be first on the list. Mr. llins says that the roud from New York to Tarrytown is “just perfect,” and that witn a club the trip could iy made within the day. He hopes during the fall « club will be organized to make the trip. At past five Mr. Rollins, regardless of the storm then breaking, started off from Sing Sing tor Poughkeepsie, where he is due this morning. Quite acrowd gathered to sce him start and wish him well.

THE ROYAL MURDERER, KING THEE BAU'S LITTLE JOKE—THE FUN OP THE BURMESE WATER FESTIVAL—SOUSING ‘THE IMPRISONED PRINCESSES—A MONSTER. [Mandalay correspondence of the Daily News.] Instead of getting crowned in the beginning of the Burmese year, as had been expected, Thee Bau, being primed for something, resolved to have some fun out of the Burmese Water Festival. It is customary at this feast for young men snd maidens to douse one another with water, a performance accom- plished with much good humor and laughter and not a little immorality. Thee Bau dressed up his Let-thou-dau, his pages of honvr, ig fancy costumes as lions and tigers and bellews, or monsters of all sorts, and, having furnished them with plentiful chatties of water, sent them off to souse the princesses in the palace prison, What might have been a joke, had the ladies been free, proved a most dismal busi- ness. At first they thought the end had come, but when it was discovered to be only a piece of coarse pleasantry there was a scene. Half of the younger women fainted away, and cowered shricking in a corner, while the elder ones stormed and scolded as only Burmeso women can scold. The King’s little pastime, therefore, proved a failure, and he was thrown in @ corresponding bad temper. The murder of a few children since then is ssid to be the result. Certain it is that two innocents not more than ten years old have been done to death, and possibly more may have shared their fate. Thee has obliterated the oue sign of human feeling he displayed in the February butchery. A little fellow, son of the Tsabin Prince—the mad prince, as he was called—was brought before the King to shakho to him before being handed over to the executioners. The r boy was half dead with fear, but when he raised his eyes to the throne and saw who was there, he cla his hands with delight and cried, “Oh, that’s Thee Bau; Thee Bau won't let them do me any harm.” A murmur of pity went round the ring of courtiers, and Thee Bau said, after a little pause, “What has become of the pony I gave you once?’ “Oh!” said the child, sadly enough, iF nowW—WO had to sell that.” So t hand, and the boy was days 0, by order of Thee Bau, s blow from s club on throat ended the poor thi misery. “DRUNK AGAIN.” Edward Carr, of No. 294 Broome street, was wend- ing homeward night before last, witha “wee drappie in his ‘ee,” and chanced to pass through Clinton place. As he neared Sixth avenue he heard @ voice announce, “Drunk again,” and at the imputation Edward wheeled about and made for the supposed captious mortal who had saluted him. But not a soul was in sight, and even as he clinched his fist and glared savagely sround, came once more the greeting, “Drunk again.” Edward Carr was av mad man, and his choler was in no wi Teduced when he es) & parrot perched in a cage at a window sill, who looked him square in the face and observed, with the utmost compla- cency, “Drunk again,” ‘Lo demolish the offending bird Haward tone, and was still vow! ey up vengeance when Officer Kennedy, of the Fifteenth precinct, appeared and arrested hima. As his demon- stration aroused the neighborhood, Justice Morgan you made him pay $10 for it. A SOMNAMBULIST'S LEAP.
