He was ridden by Smith and, in front almost from the start, won handily from Blackthorn, a 15 to 1 shot. Possart, which closed fa- vorite, finished an indifferent third. Titug commanded some respect, but Tommy Butler got him down in the deep going and he did not prove dan- | gerous. It looked as if Galanthus held ‘the other starters in the six and a half furlong event safe, and was according- ly installed a 7 to 5 favorite. Reeves with quite a chunk of weight off from his preceding race, looked the horse to beat, but under mild handling ran i\i Hulford with “Big Bill” cheap third. Knapp looked troublesome for a time, though finally led out two lengths by the favorite. early speed. With anything like falr racing luck Jimmy Coffey would have taken the next purse also, for his Foxy Grandpa, the 9 to 10 favorite, was much the best. Soon after the start Buxten, who rode the black colt, was bumped and his mount almost thrown. In the stretch Travers, on the second choice, Harbor, | passed Box Elder. Later on he was brought to a. hard drive in order to get the decision from the first choice. Buxton, on the latter, rode a very un- decided race through the stretch, get- ting jostled or cut off repeatedly, or he would have scored anyway. Jack Littie took show honors. Several defeats did not cause the pop- ularity of Horton to wane, as the little horse closed a 2 to 1 favorite for the mile and a furlong selling event. He was beaten several lengths at the fin- ish and at no stage looked like a win- ner. The ring laid the extremely long price of 10 to 1 against Gateway, and Tommy Lottridge's three-year-old dis- posed of Idogo, another long shot, by nearly a length.

Powell handled the 10 to 1 shot Past Master with ex- cellent judgment, winning ridden out frem Petrolia, also quoted at 10 to 1. Young Morello was third. NOTES OF THE TRACK. The purse won by Gateway did not benefit Tommy Lottridge any. The three-year-old was bid up $300 over his entered selling price by Charley Mec- Cafferty. Hulford, the clever three-year-old owned by Harry Stover, is a full broth- er to Gaviota, a useful performer on the New York tracks last season. As a yearling Hulford was knocked down to the bid of P. Ryan for $2200 at the Napa Stock Farm sale. The latter es- tablishment recently lost a suckling brother of the two horses mentioned. Mat Storn was at the track again vesterday after another severe spell of illness. Mat says he will be fit and able to pick some winners in a day or S0. Ed Lanigan states that Miss Reel foaled a fine looking bay colt by Rubi- con at Brentwood farm on Sunday. Jack Martin's ride on Solanug was a vast improvement over his effert on the same colt when beaten by Satlor Knrot and Celebrant on March 14. To a close observer who watched that last mentioned race it was clearly apparent that Solanus was the better horse and should have won. Only last Friday Gateway decfeated Anirad.

RHEUMATISM JOINTS AND MUSCLES SWOLLEN AND STIFF A disease so painful and far-reaching in its effects upon the human system as Rheumatism, must have a deep and well-laid foundation. It originates and develops in the blood, and, like other diseases of the blood, is fre- quently inherited. The poisonous acids with which the blood is charged circulate through the system, breaking down the health, irritating the nerves, settling in joints and muscles, and causing the sharp, cutting pains peculiar to Rheumatism. Unless the blood is purified, joints and muscles become coated with the acrid matter and are ren- dered stiff and sore, and the nerves completely wrecked. 1355 Mt. Vernon Ave. R. H. CHAPMAN.
