Gardner bid him up for ,€0D, under the impression that the coit was the property of "Sam" Hildreth. as carded, and Gardner wanted to even matters up because Hildreth took Gibraltar away from him. But Alsike was the property of W. F. Presgrave. Gardner ran Alsike in a mile and a quarter race a few days later, in which he finished last, and Gardner became so disgusted that he sold the colt to "Father Bill" Daly. The first time he ran in Dalys colors he won at a good price. Alsike was entered to be sold for ,000, and a bigcrowd gathered around the judges stand to see if Al-ike would be boosted. "Father Bill " stood there shivering, but no bid was made and the crowd cheered. Some thought it a question if he could beat Rare Perfume again if the old campaigner had had a better rider, but Alsike s showing against Herbert and Native on Monday-would indicate not only that he could, but also that he is a much better horse than most people supposed him to be.— Spirit of the Times.
