commences on Tuesday Of this week. As the
opening day draws near, public interest in the
races heightens to degree TINT foreahadouE
their entire SUCCESS. Every indication tonds te
strengthen the belief that the meeting, as q
whole, will be memorable event in the sport
ing annals OF the country. The running and
trotting trseks are in splendid condition E1-
perienced turf-men say that their equals do not
! exist anywhere. The stands arc comfortably
fitted up, and arranged 80 as to afford accom-
mediation to larger number of people than
| ever BEFORE Tho old fences have been re-
paired, and new ones introduced where neces-
sity for them existed. Paint and whitewash
have been spread around with I'D nnsparing
| hand, and every pieca OF rood in and
about the PARK looks clesn and cheor-
fpl. Better than all, the horses
! entered for premiums are in good health, and
doing well in their "work." A great many peo-
pie imagine that because Goldsmith Maid and
Lucy will not be here there will be no extra fast
time made. This is an exceedingly erroneous
idea The meeting will be better OFT without
those mares, for it is \ wel1-moBn fact that
their racer together are hippodrome afaira. In
their stead Ye bave the famous mare American
Girl, with record Of 2:177, and d general zepu-
tation equal to that Of any horse in the world
The equally famous stallion Baahaw, Jr., is also
here; backed by record Of 2:21 on q short track
a'al1; and 2za54 On 1aa one. Ihe bay horse Henry
great things are expected OF him. In recent
trial ho made mile IN 2:22s1 without
being pushed very hard, and is liable
to do better. He is 1epreeented to
breeding in all his movements. He was pur-
chased on Friday by Mr. Alexander Lewis for
$4,000. Clara G., another noted t1otter, will
appear during thu meeting. She WAS formerly
Mr. Richmond, Of Buffalo. Her best time, a:26,
was made in the third heat Of her first race.
The Eastern horse Sensation is among the
entries for fasshorsea. and is repoted to be
good ono. His best ti1no was within = fraction
Of 2:23. The Chicago horse Bodine, owned By
h1r. Goodrich, is TT companion Tor any, Of
those named above. His record is 1905, but
he can boat thGt easily now It is not long since
he trotted tlA in 2:26. and hs improves CON
stantly. We have mentioned only fe" OF the
equine celebrities which ara to take promi~
nent part in the meeting: There are
grcat many more equally deserving OF /
de7ote to them " can readily be seen, how
