Little Joe Jones appeared in the leading role at Oakland track yester- day, dropping in first at the wire on[ four winners—Prince Brutus, Redwald, Mysty’s Pride and Forest King. Joe is no novice in the saddle, for he rode on the New York tracks last season, among his exploits being that of piloting The Fiddler, claimed to have been a “ring- | er” and over whose victory the boul- rcoms throughout the country were mulcted of more than $100,000. The Eastern boy’'s character is above re- proach, and it would not be surprising to see him at the top of the ladder in/ another year. He rides equally well a front and his judgment of pace will| ripen with age. It appears to be the rule of late for | three favorites to reach home in front. well-backed horses now and then dis- | play marked lack of speed, and others | at long odds drop in second and third, reil played. Perhaps some owners im- e that as the season draws to a| ose the judges relax their vigilance. There are two or three riders at least that certainly think so, judging by their efforts. The card was a very trim-looking one and drew a large at- tendance. Sam Jones’ very useful selling plater ¥orest King turned the trick in the last race of the afternoon, at one and a six- | teenth miles, but it proved a costly win | for the Oregon turfman. Forest King was fourth choice in the betting, and! with Joe Jones as the pilot made all the running, and in a driving finish led Caronal, which opened favorite, fin- ished third. The winner was bid up from $600 to $1500 by Charley McCaf- ferty. Sam bid the customary $5, and there was no change of ownership. Crosswaite on Wistaria, a 10 to 1§ shot, captured the opening sprint. The filly took the lead turning into the stretch and at the wire won handily | from the 8 to § favorite, Colonel Bal- | lantyne. Kubelik, a 50 to 1 shot, ran| third. The Stewardess received consist- ent backing, but showed to no advan- tage. [ Prince Brutus, at odds of 11 to 20, ran aw from his company in the two- George P. McNear experienced no difficulty in beating Eduardo for the show, things were re- | yesterday. There was a very smart play on Eduardo for the third it, but beat McNear for the place. Now, | two-year-olds.in no country run this| way, and the race may recelve some | sifting. If one is seeking for consist- ency in racing, two-year-olds, if pos- sessed of a particle or class, usually | furnish it. Something from down in the orange country rang up a bullseye in the Fu- | turity course sprint following. Agnes | a winner at Los Angeles, was a clever piece of racing| material, and at one stage of the bet- ting ruled equal favorite with Picka- way. Later on her price went to 6 and 7. See can do well with this sort, for he had Agnes in front all the way, dispos- ing of Nullah by less than a length. Aunt Polly was third. Pickaway ran out on the stretch turn with Cross- waite, or he might have won. Billy Magrane's Redwald eloped with the mile and fifty yard pursc in race horse fashion. The gelding was a 9 to leading throughout, downed the two grand performers, So- linus and Moor, very cleverly. Pierce J, with See in the saddle, trudged along in third position for a time, then went on a strike for higher odds. Even Jack | Little beat him out for fourth moaney | | | | Lady Kent came a long, long way from defeating Misty’s Pride in the| fifth, a six-furlong selling entertain- | ment. The Oregon mare closed favor- ite at 9 to 5, and with Jones up tiptoed her field from the time Jake Holtman sprung the barrier. Mimo and Louis Wagner, two long shots, fought it out for the place, the former receiving the verdict by If a length. St. Winni- fride, Hainault and Lady Kent all ran indifferent races.

There is no doubt that Dunshee committed sni- cide, as he has been in financial dif- ficulties and had been drinking heav- ily.
