(By John W. Lyman)
Fifteen thousand or more spectators
assembled at The Spriogdale
Course last Saturday afternoon to
witness a thrilling finish of The Carolina
Cup Steeplechase Meet. In this
big timber 'chase of three miles the
vast gallery stood almost with abated
breath as it watched "Fink Tipped,"
an aged chestnut mare, owned by
Richard K. Mellon, of Pibtsbipfc, Pa.,
expertly ridden by William Strbett,
of Middleburg, Va., flash across the
finish line outdistancing Mrs. W.
Austin Wads worth's "Hotspur II,"
winner of the recent Washington's
Birthday Plate, by barely half a
length. It was by fur the most thrill*(
ing and dramatic of finishes ever seen
over The Sprin-gdale Course. It was
then that the spell of silence waa
i broken and a mighty cheer that followed
thundered forth loud enough to
| 1 echo through the hills.
Seldom did two horses make such
a stubborn finish, and in the final
o seconds of the duel it certainly looked
as if "Hotspur II" would add his second
victory of the Camden season
over the famous course. Perhaps had
"Kahler," Canjbell Wier's noted timber
jumper, ncft bad the misfortune
to yo down on the last roumf, the
veteran Jim Ryan would have jvon.
"Kahler," at the time of the mishap,
was going strong and gaining ground
steadily. The favorite "Vander Gold,"
owner! by J. W. Y. Martin, and ridden
by Holmes Alexander, of [Baltimore,
was third. "Vander Gold," said bo
be an "in-and-outer," did not run true
to form. He turned in a good race,
however, and there were times when
>he gave his admirers plenty of 'hope.
The big surprise of the star event was
( the expert riding, as well cus nursing
/ along of Ernest L. Wopd ward's entry,
the aged "Dream Maker." Piloted by
Morgan Macey the old podnt-to-podnt
runner came through to fourth place,
and as he romped over the finish line
the Camden folks, who knew him so
well, did not fail to let forth a cheer
and a round of applause. ? "Dream
MnkeT" deserved it.
There was no question as to the
* popularity of Mr. Melon's vie tori oua
entry, and there were several little
side-llights to add in making it so.
First, her rider, "Bill" Streebt, came
'Vinto Camden Friday evening. He had
ever seen "Pink Tipped" up to that
time, and the first glance he had of
W the aged timber topper was the folM
lowing morning. Until he rode her
M out of the paddock on the way to the
w post, it was the first time he had
ever felt her gait uftder him. In fact
it was the first official introduction
of horse and rider. But .evidently
they got on well together as (results
showed less -than ten minutes later.
"Pink Tipped," under Streebt, certain^
)>' speeded a swift three mil^e, finishing
the course in 6 minutes 52 4-5
seconds, clipping from "Trouble Maker's"
time of last year nearly SO seconds.
The race started off at a stiff
clip and the horses lined out
over the first jumps jn easy fashion,
H each mount showing excellent condiH
tlon and trained to stand the distance
H with plenty of reserve for the final
spring. At the second round "Kahler"
B began to show his class. He took the
lead up until the time of his downfall,
B caused by taking off too faT from the
fence. With "Hotspur II" and "Pink
Tipped" right behind immediately
brought forth the mighty duel beB
tween them. Ray Woolfe, who knows
H "Hotspur's" style like a duck knows
his water, took advantage of his
chance and shot his mount at full
ftPeed, but he could not shake off the
prime<l little Pittsburgh mare. She
stuck closer to "Hotspur II" than an
infuriated ex-spouse argues for her
B alimony, and when it came to the
final bid for the tape "Pink Tipped"
proved she had speed enough bo forge
ahead in the closing twenty-five yards.
H It was a great victory for Mr.
Mellon, but then he was not the only
victor from the "Steel Gity." A newcomer
in the racing world is Mrs.
B Lewis A. Park, who added another
victory when her speedy grey gelding,
Qundrel," Bobby Young up, dhow ad
B her heels to such horses as "Passive,"
owned by W. D. Cleland; "ArmagedB
don," owned by R. H. Covington, in
the second division of Hie Camden
*te' 8,x 'urlong. on the flat. "Quad^
r?l made the Usee is I minute 18
and 3-5 ?o6ond?.
The ft rat division of this race waa
won by the favorite, "Optimist II,
owned by W. B. Ruthrauff, of Red
Bank, N. J. The New Jersey horse
to win had to put forth hte very beet
effort? and up until the time be ?roes-'!
ed the finish line he was pushed to
the speed limit by S. A. W. Baltazzi s
"Whit? Lightning," with Ray Woolfe
in the saddle. In this race it vya*
another duel between Jockies Churnd'
White and Woelfe. J. W. Y. Martin's
"Satinette," with the popular Frank
A. Bonsai, Jr., riding, also ran close.
By the time everything was ready
for the first race, The Palmetto Maid-|
en, 2 1-2 miles over timber, the crowd i
was Mill coming. Oars were appearing
from all roads. Some of the,early
arrivals, so it is said, did their paiicing
as early as 1 a. m., and by daylight
there was already a considerable
line of autos resting on the knoll
facing the course.
The winner of The Palmetto Maid-,
en was "San Romolo," owned by that
popular and aristocratic young sporty|
woman, Mrs. John Hay Whitney, the I
former Mis? Elizabeth Altemus.oof)
Philadelphia/ While her husband was|
in England no doubt regretting he had
sold his remarkable jumper, "Slater^
third in The Grand National the
day before, she had the satisfaction
of coming to Camden to see "San
Romolo," with Henry Frost up, beat
out -a field consisting of "Miniator,
"Pennyweight" and B. L. Behr's "Sir
#ohn." "'San Romolo made the distance,
finishing hale and strong, in
6 minutes and 4-5 seconds. . I
But three horses went to the post
for The 'Springdale Steeplechase, two
miles over timber. The trio belonged
to members of the Camden winter
colony. Two belonged to the Bams
Head iStable, of which Carroll Basset
is an owner, and the other entry
Mr?. Lucy P. Deans. 0
Mr. Bassett, up on Peacock, was
the winner; Mrs. Deans' "Netta Run, .
with Ray Woolfe riding, was second
and the other entry carrying ^
Ram's Head silks, "My Cw," ridden
by James Ryan, was thirdv in

number of entries. The ?me wa., *
