HARNESS RACING, LORD DERBY'S $10,000 RACE-BURSTS OF SPEED BY THE HAMLIN TROTTER AT BRIGHTON BEACH-JOE PATCHEN BEATEN AA" Div» Five thousand spectators saw the opening of the New-York Trotting Association's first meeting at the Brighton Beach racetrack yesterday afternoon. Horsemen of prominence from Maine to California in the crowd, and all were delighted with t they saw at the finely appointed Brooklyn course. Better transportation facilities, better ac commodations at the track, better horses and better sport have not been enjoyed by the followers eof harness racing on any track this year. Monday's heavy rain left the footing quite heavy for the har ness horses early in the afternoon, and extreme speed was out of the question. Some stirring fin ishes were seen, however, and the heats followed each other in such rapid succession that the spec tators were well entertained from first to last Although a great many spectators were more in terested in the special pacing race between Joe Patchen, 2:013, and Anaconda, 2:02%, than in any other race of the day, the most important feature of the long programme was the $10,000 free for ali trotting race, which hrought together the famous horses Lord Derby, 2:07, and Charley Herr, 2:07. Old Joe Patchen, the conqueror of Star Pointer, 1:59; John R. Gentry, 2:00, and Robert J., 2:01, proved to be no maich for his younger rival. He acted sore and tied up in his warming exercise, &@nd looked fifty pounds too heavy for heat racing. Anaconda acted like a pacer fod on dynamite, He was fairly boiling over with ambition to go, and his gray haired driver, “Jack” Trout, had to lie almost flat back in his sulky to hold the racy bay gelding at all. The betting was $100 to $50 that Anaconda would be the winner. When Frank Walker, the starter, gave them the word, Ana conda stepped right away from the gallant old black, gaining a lead of three lengths as he paced the first quarter in 0:30 with his head pulled around to one side. The bay was at the half in 1:01, in creasing his lead at every stride, until Trout got 2 new grip on the reins and succeeded in bring ing him back to a clip which would not distance his rival. He finished the mile in 2:07, pulled up to jog. Distance was waived by mutual consent before the second heat, and Trout let his horse go a fast mile. Without being driven at any stage of the heat Anaconda passed the first quarter in 0:30, the half in 0:593, the three-quarters in 1:30% and the mile in 2:03%. To the surprise of the horse men, Joe Patchen made a better showing in this heat than in the first, finishing the mile in 2:65, separately timed. It was the opinion of many turf men that Anaconda could have turned the track in 2:02 or better if he had been driven out with a runner to spur him on at the end. E. B. Rice, the twenty-one-vear-old Boston college student who owns Anaconda, was present to see Lis horse per form. Betting men pinned their faith to Lord Derby, 2.07, through thick and thin in the $10,000 free for all trotting race, and he justified the confidence of his backers after losing the first heat. In the auction pools sold before the start the Hamlin horse brought $100. while Charley Herr, 2:07; Georgena, 2:07%, and The Monk, 2:08%, brought ‘$50 in the field. The first heat developed one of the closest finishes ever seen in a trotting race. Charley Herr broke wildly before reaching the first turn, and was never in the hunt. Geers made no move with the favorite until well past the half mile post, Georgena and The Monk racing off in the lead at a 2:19 clip. When Lord Derby moved up to try for the lead he found The Monk full of trot, and though Geers drove him as hard as he ever drives a horse, “Fred” Gerken's good Speed way trotter stalled him off until the wime was passed, winning by a nose amid cheers from the crowd. The time was 2:08, over a track that was wery heavy from the half mile pole to the wire. There was little change in the betting after this heat, Lord Derby's backers remaining confident in spite of his defeat. Geers made his drive a trifle earlier in the two succeeding heats, and won easily with a most impressive show of speed on the upper turn. In each heat the other horses took the upper turn so wide that Lord Derby was enabled to steal through next the rail and take the short route home [Under the rules of the New-York Trotting Association, which send all horses except the heat winners to the barn at the end of three rounds, Chariey Herr and Georgena were ruled wut before the final heat. It was The MonK that trailed l.ord Derby to the head of the homestretch this time, “Fred” Noble refusing to send his borse off in front 16 set the pace, as before, The pace that Lord Derby set was a 2:38 clip to the quarter, 2:22 clip to the half and a 2:20 clip to the three quarters. Then the speed quickened, and in a Brush for the wire the (wo trotters sped down the homestretch in 0:31, a 2:04 clip. Lord Derby never appeared to be under a drive, The winner is to meet Cresceus in a race at Baston next week, and §t is the opinion of many horsemen who saw him trot yesterday that the champion will find it no easy task 10 defeat the Hamlin crack. In the heavy going the pacers of the 2:12 race tired badly when the heats were split up, and though Hsaroid H. won the first heat in 2:10, he was beaten in 2:21% in the fifth round. He was strong favorite, having won every race and every heat in which he had started this vear. It was said the hosts Was sick. He certainly paced poor race, as did all the others, Captain Sphinx, the winner, being “dead on his fect" at Ting end, while Dark Wilkes, winner of the second heat in 2:08, was distanced for lack of speed in 2:213;. Nigger Jack, owned by James Shevlin, and James Shevlin, owned by former State Senator John Mc Carty, were the contending trotters in the 2:14 race} Mr. Shevlin's big black trotter won the first two heats quite handily, out. his namesake proved to be the stouter horse, and ip the three succeed ing rounds Nigger Jack weakened at the finish and was beaten. Senator MeTarty's horse sold cin the field at $330 ainst §50 for E. E. Smathers's Speedway trotter and $65 for Nigger Jack. The owners and of all three horses were present, and there was lively betting on the result.

WESTERN WOMEN EAGER TO ORGANIZE SEPARATE CHAMPIONSHIP. It is possible that before the women's national championship takes place at Baltusrol the Western Golf Association may enter the field with a cham pionship for the women of the West. Heretofore, in the absence of such a tournament, the title of Western weman champion has been conceded to the winner of the Governors’ Cup in the Onwentsia Golf Club's tournament. But with the rise in importance of other Western clubs the winners of similar trophies at Glen View or Exmoor might with equal propriety lay claim to the same title. This being the case, Western golfers are of the opinion that the time has come for an official award of the wemen's championship, such as is ade at the metropolitan championships of this city. Three so-called championships are now held annually in the West for women, namely, the com petition for the Governors’ Cup at Onwentsia, the “championship gold medal’ at Wheaton and the women’s cup at Glen View, but none is recognized as definitely determining the title. According to these at the head of the United States Golf Asso ciation, the national championships have reached a pent where some limit must be placed on the entries, and the fairest way of determining this seems to be by accepting only the players who have shown their fitness in preliminary sectional tourna ments. The metropolitan ehampionship operates in this way in bringing éut the best talent of the East, and the proposed Western championship would, in their opinicn, do the necessary weeding out at the West, Members of the boayd of directors of the West ern Golf Association ‘say that it is too late to establish such a tournament this season, but as the need of such a contest has been amply demon strated it is probable that they will designate one of the clubs yet to hold its annual women's tournament as the one to confer the championship title. Reports from various leading clubs in the Chicago district indicate that such action would receive cordial support, and that the outside entry would be ampie to make the contest a representa tive one. The move is being watched with keen interest by players in and about New-York, as the tourna ment, if held. will offer the first real indication of the kind of opposition that may be expected at Baltusrol, and more particularly the rivals that Miss Frances Griscom. the present champion, will be called upon to meet. MYOPIA HUNT CLUB COT TF Boston, Aug. 13.-- The announcement was made to day that the Myopiz Hunt Club will held its open goif tournament at Hamilton on September 27 and 28. Tt will be the biggest golf event of the fall in New-England. Competitors will play eighteen holes HE in the morning, the first eight to qualify for the Myopia c3p. the next eight to qualify for the con solation prize. There will also be a stroke compe Hion on Saturday, September 28, handicap limited to 24 yn CHANGE IN EKWANOK TOURNAMENT. 3... Manchester, Vt., Aug. 13 (Special).—At the last moment it has been decided to play thirty-six holes in the qualifying round of the tournament for the president's cup to-morrow, instead of eighteen holes. This will bring the first round, match play, on Thursday morning. The other arrangements have all been completed. The links are in excellent Lk condition and the weather conditions are favorable. The entry list now numbers more than sixty, so that everything points toward an exceedingly suc cessful tournament. Mrs. Gorham, of Philadeiphia. won a women's handicap tournament played on the Ekwanok links here this morning for a special women's cup. THREE NEW COURSE RECORDS Three course records were lowered last week at the links near Chicago—-Onwentsia, Skokie and Hinsdale—all being mad® in better figures than befere. James Griffis, of Onwentsia, made the nine holes of the Skokie course in 37, beating both the amateur and professional figures. This was made on the first round, and on the secend he did 43, giving a total of 80 for the eighteen holes. The second record smasher was Walter B, Smith, a former member of the Yale go!f team, who this year intends to make a strong bid for the Western “championship. Smith covered the Onwentsia links in 77. one less than the score made by Will iam Holabird, jr., in the recent open tournament at that course. The Hinsdale record was also broken in a practice match, E. B. Bliss and H. K_ Allen each making the round in 39. two strokes better than the best amateur record, previously held by S. O. Dugger. HOLLYWOOD CADDIES AGAIN WINNERS SR Long Branch, Aug. 13.—Considerable interest was manifested this afternoon in the caddy match on the Hollywood links between Deal and Hollywood.
