Blond had been passed , Ihe sulkies of Gov

Bulky came within an ace of going over , but
fortunately did not do so , end after changing
pulklcs the horses came out again and nftor a
counlo of scorings succeeded in gctllng a
beautiful send-off. Gardner milled to the
front almost immediately and at the first
quarter led by ix length , Bond D'Or second
und Governess third. In rounding into the
lialf Governess took second place. Gardner
lioro broke , but Instead of loblng gained.
Notwithstanding vhis advantage the litllo
brown mare kepi well upon his neck wllhout
n skip In the whole milo , and came under the
etring but n beau in the rear of the fiery
Gardner , with Bond D'Or with his uoso m
Ihelr wheels and Golden Wing a length in
the rear. On account of Governess' cquuro
work und the extreme closeness of the finish ,

In approaching the three-quarters Golden
"Wing displaced the brown mare , as did
Gardner , whllo Bund D'Or came climbing up
nt n rattling pace. Pcta Gardner was given
the silk at Iho head of the stretch nnd by n
beautiful snurt passed Golden Wing and took
ilrst. Aud right hero Bend D'Or showed the
line stuit there is m htm by rushing by Gov
erness nnd Golden Wing and challenging
Garduor for Hrst honors. Ho wus hardly suf
ficient for the task , nnd Pete beat him out by
