MACAO RACES.
3RD EXTRA MEETING.
[BY RAPIER.}.
Although there are not many Hong Kong ponies entered for the above races there will be a big crowd of visitors from this Port. The pacing has so far been very good and the Course is excellently situnted and is one of Macno's coolest spots. Every Meeting brings some improvement in the arrange ments for the comfort of the public and there must be very little left to do in this respect. The Sul An leaves here at 0a.m. and the Taizhan at 10 a.m. and both these vessels arrive in sufficient time to rnable passengers to see the first race, which commences at 1.30 p.m. With their usual generosity the Officials are giving a number of trophics for riders but I cannot help thinking that this is not a practice to be encouraged where gentlem jockeys are concerned.
WEEK-END BASEBALL.
TWO STRONG TEAMS TO CONTEND.
[BY BONOLULU RID.] The week-end ball games will be between the Filipinos and the Japanese at 4 p.m. at the Happy Valley diamond. The South China Tigers will meet the Americans to- morrow at the same time and place. The game between the Filipinos and the Japanese will provide some The sons of thrills for the fans. Nippon are very aggressive and the Filipinos are no less so. Both teams will be out to do their best, and although the chances of winning the game are with the Japanese, the Tagalo boys will not give away the game without a struggle.

Cresta Rua's Undoing. Cresta Run was in one of her worst moods. She had arrived unaffected by the journey from Newmarket, and indeed appeared all right in the paddock. Nor did the crowd upset her on parading, but an irritating delay at the start ing-post proved her undoing.
