EI Paso, Tex., February S. -An attractive card was provided at Juarez today by Secretary Jasper for the large crowd that went over the border. The chief racing feature was the running of the Yucatan Stakes for two-year-old colts and geldings. The day was balmy and springlike and the racing up to the high standard that the Jockey Club Juarez has been giving its patrons right along. Jefferson Livingston won the stake race with Ed Howard, one of his entries. Ed Howards stable companion. Tod Cook, met with interference at Wv start and failed to place. James Kutler had two carded to go, but scratched Apple, leaving Superhuman to carry his colors. Superhuman was not ridden to the best advantage, as jockey Taylor applied his whip altogether too freely on the colt. He hustled him away quickly and never let up on whipping. Xaturally the colt weakened under the gruelling punishment near the finish. .Jockev Ford, en the other hand, rode Ed Howard well, ile waited with him until the final eighth ami then his mount responded, with the result that Superhuman was beaten a length. Only one favorite, and that at odds-on, succeeded in scoring. The finishes all were close.
