HOW IRISH LAD WON
BROOKLYN HANDICAP
Xeiv York, May 28. —Irish Lad won
,li,, seventeenth Brooklyn handicap at
Gravesend to-day in 2:05 2-5. Ridden
by O’Neil with perfect judgment, he
bore the colors of the Westbury stable,
-i partnership of Harry Payne Whitney
and H. B. Duryea. Rated oy the
hrindlcapper highest of the 3-year-olds
entered, Irish Lad carried 103 pounds.
Gunfire, 111 pounds, winner of the
Metropolitan handicap, and favorite in i
to-day’s race, was second, beaten by
not more than three inches. Burns rode
her for W. C. Whitney, father of the
winner’s half-owner.
Lengths behind the pair—eight, ac
cording to the official figures—came W.
g Fanshawe’s Heno.
Irish Lad lowered the record for the
race, 2:0614, made by Banastar in 1899,
and equalled the record for the track,
made by Gold Heels last October.
John E. Madden owned and sold the
first, second and third horses in to
day's Brooklyn handicap. Mr. Madden
bought Irish Lad as a yearling for sl,-
500. The price Messrs. Whitney and
L>uryea paid for him has never been
authoritatively stated.
Worth gross $18,150, the winner's
share of the Brooklyn handicap of 1903
was $15,150, the second horse taking
$2,000 and the third SI,OOO.
No more evenly judged race was
ever run, as the fractional time shows:
Quarter 25 seconds; half, 0.50; five
eighths, 1:02 1-5; three-fourths,
1:14 2-5; seven-eighths, 1:27 1-5; mile,
1:401-5; one and one-quarter miles
2:05 2-5.
Irish Lad led practically from post
to finish, successively stalled off the
challenges of Oom Paul and Igniter
and won after a final bitter struggle
from his companion. Both trained by
J, W. Rogers, the Whitney horses were
the only real contenders for first hon
ors after the field turned into the
stretch.
Irish Lad was away well at the start,
and O’Neil, rushing clear, took him
over close to the inside fence. He led
as they passed the stand.
Irish Lad was a length in front when
the run down the back stretch began,
but Oom Paul challenged at once, and
the two raced side by side for three
eighths of *a mile. Then in a moment
it was all over, but for two horses.
Igniter and Col. Bill fell back and Oom
Paul’s green and white jacket was hid
den by Burns’ blue, as he took Gun
fire into second place.
Irish Lad led into the stretch by a
length Gunfire close behind and Oom
Paul still within striking distance, but
apparently beaten. When Gunfire drew
alongside the 3-yar-old a sixteenth of
a mile from home and Oom Paul made
a last effort, the outcry from the
stands was terrific.
With every muscle strained and rid
ers doing their utmost, Irish Lad and
Gunfire raced to the wire. The filly
gained on the colt inch by inch. Twen
ty feet from the end her nose was in
front, but with one splendid burst of
courage Irish Lad leaped forward in
the very last jump and won by a
head’s breadth. One jump from the
wire the race was a dead heat.

PREPARING FOR THE
YACHT CLUB REGATTA.
Hoard of Steward* Approve* Plan
and Appropriate* Money for Prt*e*.
At a meeting of thp Board of Stew
ards of the Yacht Club yesterday aft
ernoon the report of the special com
mittee, recommending that a regatta
he held June 9, was adopted and S2OO
was set apart for providing prizes and
meeting other expenses incident to the
occasion.
The special committees under whose
direction the regatta will be given,
have in hand the details and every
thing points to a very successful and
interesting occasion. The usual regat
ta was omitted last year, and it v,as
thought by some members that P**'
haps it would be as well to discon
tinue the races and let that fed^ e
of the club pass into history. But ear
lv in the spring there was a move
inent started to secure the return to
the regatta, and after having been
discussed in the newspapers for some
time it was announced that the pretty
nautical function would be resumed.
A great "many members are now much
interested in the coming event, and the
day of the regatta promises to be
memorable at the club house and o
the river.
As was told in the Morning News
some days ago the committees have
decided to allow four classes of boats
in the races and prizes will be offered
in each class. The entry lists will be
opened soon and while there are no
names yet on the books, it is expected
that there will be four or five boats in
each class. The course, also, has not
been fixed, but will be designated
within a short time. It will be differ
ent for the different classes of boats,
In order that the finish may be as near
together as possible. The small boats
will have a rhuch shorter run than
those in the first class, and each class
will start separately.
A steamer will be provided, for mem
bers and their families, to follow the
boats and the day will be made as
interesting and pleasant as possible. At
the Club House, after the races, infor
mal dancing will be the order.
READY FOR THlf FRAY;
Police Team Will Meet City Team
on Friday Afternoon.
It has been decided to play the first
game of baseball between teams from
the police department and the city and
county officers at the Bolton Street
Park next Friday afternoon. The pro
ceeds will go to charity.
Both teams have been practicing
hard and the game promises to be an
interesting one. Capt. Garrity of the
city team, and Capt. Wall of the po
lice team are both confident of being
able to say "I told you so," and sev
eral wagers’ have been made on the
result. The nines are practicing daily
and promise to put up a creditable ex
hibition.

playing an excellent game, were worst

couraged the Artillerymen, but prob
ably has given them a reason for do
ing better than ever to-morrow-. Some
changes in the line up may be made
and a snappy and interesting game is
certain to be seen. The Y. M. C. A.
team has played some games already
this season and the boys are In good
form. , ,

SAD END OF ROMANCE.
llrlile of Seven Weeks Hurled in
Wedding Gown.
Columbia, S. C„ May 28.—A romance
which had its inception in childhood
was abruptly ended yesterday in the
death of Mrs. Julius Matthews, a bride
of seven weeks, at Dillon, Marion
county. On April 8, Julius Matthews,
formerly a drug clerk of Marion, led to
the altar the girl of his choice. They
had known and loved each other a3
children and as soon as business pros
pects warranted the important step,
he and pretty Lilly Stalvey were made
man and wife. He took his bride to
Dillon, where life’s journey began most
auspiciously. Three weeks ago she was
stricken with fever, which ended in her
death yesterday. The bridal robes in
which, just seven weeks ago, she was
led to the altar, were yesterday her
funeral shroud. Her remains were in
terred in the family burial ground near
Marion, accompanied by her stricken
husband, mother, father, sister, and
her pastor, Rev. J. D. Grout, who so
recently performed the ceremony of
her marriage.
Three sudden deaths have recently
occurred in the vicinity of Donalds,
Abbeville county. Ed Gordon, the 18-
year-old son of a prominent farmer,
died vecy suddenly yesterday. He was
apparently in perfect health until he
fell in the yard and in a few minutes
was dead.
Dr. John A. Robinson, a prominent
physician, residing in the same neigh
borhood, died of apoplexy yesterday.
Dr. Robinson was seated at his desk
writing when he fell from his chair
dead,
William Taylor, living in the vicinity
of Donalds, dropped dead yesterday
afternoon. His death is attributed to
heart failure.
It is a coincidence that these three
men living in a few miles of each other
should die so suddenly and so near the
same time.
DOCTOR WAS FIXED.

Columbus, Ga., May 28.—Judge Butt,
in the Superior Court to-day, sustained
the judgment of Recorder Grimes in
the case of the city of Columbus
against F. V. Clerkley. Dr. Clerkley
was in charge of a consultation office
here, known as the British Medical In
stitute. He was arraigned before the
Recorder for not paying a license. The
local license for medical institutes is
SSO.
Dr. Clerkley said he was licensed
individually as a physician and was
not liable for an institute license,
claiming that he really conducted no
institute, he being the only physician
in the office. Judge Grimes said he
considered the office 'an institute, as
he had advertised an institute, and
imposed a fine equivalent to SSO. The
case was appealed to the Superior
Court.
OH Mill for Villa lin.
