A Day or
The last day's races of the May running
meeting wcro run at the driving park yester
day , and a large number of spectators were
in attendance. The day was very pleasant ,
although the track wnt In rather poor con
dition , owing to having been used whllo too
wet , nnd it was therefore badly cupped.
However , the time made was very good and
the races wcro the best of the meeting. A
largo force of policemen wcro on the grounds
to preserve order , although their services
were scarcely needed beyond keeping the
traclt clear. The races and their results are
given In the order in which they occurred :

Eight horses wcro entered and three
started , placed as follows :
Council Pint , 115. red , whlto nnd blue
Carlisle.
Mackenzie , 115 , blue and whlto Hurholder.
Mabel II. , ll'i. bluo-Halleck.
After considerable scoring , a very fair
start was seen red with Mabel II. slightlv In
the lead , Mackenzie second and Council Plat
In the rear. This order was quickly
changed by Mackenzie jumping to the
front within the llrst 11)0 ) yard. < As the turn
was sounded Plat forged ahead to second
place , and Mackenzie's lead was Increased to
several lengths. The run down the stretch
was uninteresting , several feet of daylight
showing between each horse.
Council Pint und Mabel H. wcro disquali
fied for not trying to win , and llrst money
was awarded to Mackenzie , who came under
the wire at an easy lope in liODJl.
Council Plat was in no condition to run ,
being slightly lame from an Injury received
several days before. Mackenzie sold 10 to 0
against the Held.
TIM : snroxo iiAcn.
Purse $12:5. : One mlle for all ages. Tnoro
were four entries and all started.
Myrtle , 113 , orange nnd blue Ulley. Jessie
J , 117 , white jacket , blue nnd whlto cap
Miller. Chancellor , 102. white jacket , red
stars , black cap Carlisle. Sunday , 122 , blue
jacket , red cap Johnson.
Jessie J. was the favorite in the pools , sell
ing 2 to 1 against tlio Held.
It was the general Impression that.Tessio J.
would have a walkaway , and great odds had
to be offered to get any money up on her.
As the horses came up the fourth time they
were sent off , with the favorite about two
lengths in the rear. By the time the buck
stretch was covered Miller had allowed .Tes-
sio J. to fall back six or seven lengths behind
Chancellor , who still kept the pace very
lively. Miller doubtless thought that the
leaders would soon give out and ( hat his turn
would come on the homo stretch. At the half
milo post ho began to push a little
und soon laid alongside of Myrtle , and ran
neck and neck with her around the turn.
Chancellor had meanwhile drawn away from
Sunday and had a daylight lead. As Miller
urged his marc down the stretch ho began to
rcnlbo that ho had held off too lone , and al
though Jessie J. was m prime condition and
ran splendidly , her efforts only secured her
third place. Sunday taking second by a , neck ,
and Chancellor holding llrst place by a lend
of n length and a half. A largo sum ot
money was lost on this race. The time was
1 : T8 , and could have been lowered by at least
two fioconas tail Ctsiiwllor KT.cn ilusii'"i '

blue. Only Dare. 131 , blue and pink Sea
man. Forrest King , 115. wine jacket , blue
and white cap. Pruirio Queen , old gold and
bluo. At the start the horses paired off in
the order of their places. Only Dare took
the lead at the upper end of the stretch , and
the only real contest was between Forrest
King ana Lottie F. for second place. It , vas
a hard light for position , but Forrest King
got second by n nose , lapping the winner as
ho went under the wire. Only Dare was the
favorite In the pools , nnd won considerable
money for his backers. Time 1:03 : .

This was simply an exhibition by the colts
and fillies of the Stewart stable , and
wus a line run by the two-year-olds
Va-Tout , Vcndour , Vcngcur und Lady Gay.
Tlio colts broke away finely at the word , but
Vengcur Immediately fell back from sonio
unknown cause , and it was thought for a
time that he would fall , but ho soon recov
ered and ran well the remainder of the way ,
although distanced at the ilnlsh. Tlio lead
ers came in Lady Gay first. Va Tout second ,
Vedeur third. Tiino 54Jf.

The flftu and last race was a consolation
dash , % mile , for beaten horbcs. There were
entries placed as follows :
Hello 1C. , 115 , red. Thorp.
Forest King , 115 , wine Jacket , blue and
whlto cap. Dowy.
Derby , 120 , green jacket , red and blue cap.
McKlnno.v. .
Ueppo , US , brown Jacket , rod and whlto
cap. Drane.
A splendid start was secured with hut
little Jockeying , and the finest race of the
day was run m 1 : H3J . Hello 1C. took the
lead and held it until tlio upper turn was
reached , leading up the back stretch by
n length , but as they straightened
for the homo run Forest King came
up , and soon took the lead , holding it the
rest of the way. As the horses neared the
wire Hello 1C was urged to her best , and was
barely able to keep second place , Derby tak
ing third. Hcppo was practically out of the
race. Hello K ran splendidly for the first
half but was unnblo to hold the pace , owing
to insunlclent training.
At the close of the horse races n foot race
of seventy-live yards was run by three of the
members of the freo-for-nll hose team that Is
to go to Clinton Lozicr , Koss nnd Hugh.
After much delay the men drew up in line to
start at the crack of a pistol. When all was
ready Lozior gave two or three jumps and
the pistol wus fired. With n start of twenty
feet Lozior could not fail to win. It was the
rankest sellout that was ever sprung on an
unsuspecting crowd.
Notcfi.
The half mile track was the scene of sev
eral scrub races during the day , and some of
them were very lively ones.
The famous pacing mare , Mattie Harlo ,
record 2.18 , was on the grounds , and was
jogging slowly around the track under the
saddle. There wcro but few of those who
were unacquainted with the little grey , who
had any idea of the bpeod possesbod by that
nervy flyer.
The great trotting stallion , Cyclone , was
driven around tlio half mlle track a few times
during the afternoon , and showed to perfec
tion.

The last day's races wcro the best of tlio
meeting , and the largo number present ap
preciated the fart.
There was a fair sprinkling of ladies In the
nmphilhoatcr , nnd also u largo number of
the fair sex who remained In their carnages
along the quaiter stretch ,
Dalby's military band was in the amplthcn-
tcr during the day as on the preceding ones
and enlivened the time between the race *
with some of their choicest selections ,
It was claimed that the trouble with the
Stewart colt , Vongour , was duo to inexperi
ence , it never before having been sent from
a standing etait.
Considerable interest was manifested In
Wndo Gary's three standard bred trotters ,
Norway , King Humbert and Prince Ivanhoo.

For Pcncliiff or Kniling.
As a product of Council Bluffs brains
and enterprise the invention of C. J.
Bookman is fast taking a place in the
load. His simpjc device needs but to
bo seen to convince any ono that it is
just what is needed in every fence in
tlio land. In this city there are many
of his fences already put up , showing
how his patent lock holds the bars of
mils , and no one now thinks hero of
putting up any sort of a fence or railing
without using his patent. Ar.-.ong the
recent samples of his work is a vorv
neat railing put up in front of II.
W. Tillon's . residence on Fifth
avenue , opposite the court house.
Now that so many of the fences
ai'6 oSlng lafcoiTa-way from in fr.Q"t of
lawns and private residences , these
railings are rapidly taking their places.
With Mr. Beckman's patent the rail is
held securely , is given a line finish , and
yet whenever desirable a rail can betaken
taken out by a minute's use of the screw
driver. The same is true whenever his
locks are used. A section of a fence
can be taken right out. and as quickly
replaced , at any time , with no trouble
or expense. At the same time weather
or time cannot cause any weakening or
springing of joints. Best of all is , the
expense is so nominal that one does not
hayo to consider it for a moment , it
being really cheaper than to do without
it. Mr. Bcckman has struggled hard
to get public attention directed to the
merits of his patent , but ho is now suc
ceeding , and the invention promises to
he ono of the most popular and profit
able.
