All this time Ben Holiaday laboring with Jefferson in the rear. George Keene and Filigrane, heads apart, continued to hold their places as pace makers in the third furlong, and Banastar was still their most danger- ous competitor, though they had in- creased their lead over the son.of Far- ondale to a length and a haif. Maher sat sphinx-like on his handsome apparently satisfied with his po There were no changes in the positions of the others, except that Imp began to lose ground as the leaders swung around the three-eighths pole in 37 sec- onds flat—the third furlong having been run in exactly the same time as the cond. 1t was evident that both Clawson and McCue had no waiting orders, for their mounts were steaming to the utmost, and it was only a question of which would stop first. No horse could live head and Bana through that terrific pace. Nobody save Banastar behind them appeared to | threaten, but there were still many game and tried ones in the chase. and the backers of Bangle, Algol and Don de Oro were beginning to shout the names of their favorite. Spencer was using his daintiest art on the Don, and though he was running eighthandabout that many lengths behind the leaders his supporters were not_without hope.

George Keene and Filigrane were still head and head, and Banastar was hold- ing his own, with Algol straining cvery nerve to keep at his neck. And there were others behind still hopeful of im- proving their positions. “The next eighth must see a change,” said an old, gray-haired turfite behind 0 three-year-old can stand that The fifth furlong did witness a change, but it was Gecrge Keene who began to show the effect of his magnificent ef- fort. Clawson was at him and the Paget -horse was féeling the sting o home alone three lengths to the good, amid piercing shrieks and shrill cries. Lanky Bob was second, a full length before the game but tired Filigrane, and Don de Oro was fourth, two lengths away and only a head in front of Bangle. Then came Algol and Ben Holladay. the latter never a factor from the fall of the flag. The California mare Maxine (for- merly Fleur de Lis), with Doggett up, fourth at the start, quickly drop- ping back, and finished twelfth. She was never prominent in the race. In the betting Maxine was 40 to 1 straight and 10 tc 1 for the place. The time of the winner, 2:06%, is a new record for the race, the of Dry Monopole having been made in the first running of the handicap in 1887. The time, 2:06%, might have been a good bit faster had Maher desired to make it The record of 7 has stood since 1887, when Dry Monopole, Blue Wing and Hidalgo ran nose and n to the most exciting finish ever witnessed. The Brooklyn handicap is a stake of $10,000, of which $8000 goes to the win- ner. The other winners have been: The Bard, Exile, Castaway II, Tenny, Judge Morrow, Diablo, Dr. Rice, Horn- pipe, Sir Walter, Howard Mann and Ornament. The other pectation, ike on the card was the for two-year-olds, at four and a half furlongs.

C., May 27.—Accord- | $i%t inging to news received by the steamer City of Topeka this morning Messrs. Sloss and Wilson of the Alaska Com- mercial Company, who are en route to Dawson, received letters while at Skag- uay from representatives of the com- pany both at Dawson City and St. Michael confirming the news of the big strikes reported from the vicinity of Cape Nome. The St. Michael agent of the company says the first news of the strike was brought to St. Michael in December. | “Late in that month,” in his letter to Sloss, “three tawny- looking prospectors came to the settle- ment suddenly and unheralded from | Snake River, the leading waterway of the new gold fields, which enter Bering Sea near Cape Nome. They looked like deadbeats, and when they ordered big outfits and no small amount of provisions I got leery and wanted to see the color of their money. They produced without delay, dropping a bag of dust on the table which must have contained some $1200. This, the trio of miner aid, v the product of a month's work and they wanted their outfits in a hurry to get back to the rict. Day after day miners con- | Unun'(l to reach the settlement with | wonderful tales of lucky finds along | Snake River and its feeders and all had | 1d-fo back up their stories. | It was not long before the whole | settlement stampeded and I went, too, | together with the North American | Trading and Transportation Company’s | men. We got in early and staked some | good properties.” | The letters received from Dawson say that according to advices received by the agent of the company there the | whole district in the vicinity of Snake River is richly studded with gold. Gold is being found on every creek, and even | along the seashore miners are rocking out dust and nuggets. Great excite- ment prevails all along the lower Yu- kon and crowds are hurrying to the new-found placers. Preparations are being made by the fortunate claim- owners for development. Rows of sluice boxes are to be seen and numbers of men are hauling in provisions. Quite a town has grown already at the mouth of Snake River. It is being | laid out in lots and many buildings are | under way. The stampede has already hampered the captains of the river steamers. The crews deserted and joined the stam- pede and the companies cannot get men at any price. Prospectors at work in the hills to the north of Boulder Creek, which runs into Snake River from the north, are reported to be taking out from $15 to $22 to the pan. The agent says Boulder more than rivals the richest of the Klondike creeks. The agent says that a stampede has begun from Dawson and the camps on the American side and more will follow shortly. Num- bers are awaiting the opening of the river to float down in small boats. DIS”I‘RIC'I" FAIR FOR STOCKTON. Wearied of Waiting for Gage, the Cit- izens Take Action. STOCKTON, May 2i.—Stockton will have an old-time fair this year. It was intended at first to wait until Governor Gage appointed a new board of agricul- tural district directors and let them put their shoulders to the wheel, but as the time is short the business men decided to take hold on their own responsibility. An organization has been effected to lease the Fair Association property and give a race meeting and a pavilion exhibit. The organization is officered as follows: George E. Catts, president; Neu- miller, vice president; J. W. sec- retary and treasurer. it will be known as the Stockton Driving Club. Business men will be waited upon at once for pledges and contributions in or- der that the long neglected track may be put into condition, and the pavilion' re- paired. Contributions are coming in most satisfactorily. It is the intention to of- fer 35000 in purses at the track, and to bring the best horses on the coast here. Arrangements will be made to secure the old fair dates, which are the third week in_September. Horsemen all over the country will re- member the famous kite-shaped track, on which many turf records were won. This track may be put into condition, but it is more probable that the circular mile track will be repaired, as it is not in auite so dilapidated a condition as the other. B R. T. Brodek, late prop.
