TrOtIing.

Jupiter Pluvius reigned Tuesday, and
for the greater part of the day threaten
ed to spoil the sport in contemplation.
However, at the appointed hour, GOOD
crowd wendell their way to the Rutland
Trotting Park, and or every side was
heard the anxious enquiry, ''Will they
trot ?" Mr. Danforth assured all that
they would, and, accordingly, the
HoOd-gates having shut down at about
three o'clock, and the sun coming out
bright, the horses were called for the
three minute race. The judges took the
stand. and after some little time was
consumed in weighing drivers, etc, the
preparations being completed, the race
began.
The judges were:
NJ. X. HotchkiSs.
Darwin Rider
c. c. Knights.
OF the ten entries, there were but six
starters. rs follows, in the order in which
they drew positions
II. Nichoss b. m. Maggie WhalebOne.
Henry Stones b. m ModOc Girl.
Narnum Whitcomb's blk. G. Black
Jack.
A. H. Dasforth's b. m. Maggie.
r. o. Coles s. g. Colonel.
Z. j. Browns r. m. Kitty Lewis.
The others entered-Daisy Thompson,
John Shandley, Young Whalebone and
Nellie-did not start
FIRST HEAT.
After one Intellectual attempt, a good
send-off was obtained on the second
scoring. Maggie soon took the lead, and
held it at the first, second and third
quarters, the others being strung out in
various positions. Maggie kept her
Roadway all through the heat, and came
up the home streatch at a rafting pace,
with Colonel second, some distance in
the rear, and Kitty Lewis third. The
others were so far behind that they did
not succeed in getting in before the dis
lance flag fell, and were therefore shut
out. Time, 2:53.
SECOND HEAT.
The first heat was over at about
four o'clock, and some fifteen minutes
after the horses were again called up.
This time the excitement was intensified
and the interest was concentrated in
three good horses. The track was in a
little better condition than before, but
not much. After four poor scores, a
send-off word was given on the fifth.
At first there was a sharp brush for the
lead, but Maggie soon obtained it, Colo
mel crowding pretty close, and Kitty
Lewis not far behind him. On the first
quarter Colonel broke badly, and Mag
gle increased her distance several lengths, |
and passed the half mile away ahead,
Kitty Lewis being close to Colonel. In
the same positions they passed the three
quarters, when Colonel made a squirt and
coming to his work well closed the gap
considerably, coming IN second, but
few lengths behind Maggie, and closely
followed by Kitty Lewis. Time, 2:53f.
THIRD HEAT.
The third and last heat was trotted
by Maggie and Colonel, Kitty Lewis be-
ing drawn. A good start we effected
the first time trying, and the two trotted
the first quarter pretty close together.
On the second quarter Maggie let out
and made an opening which the Colo
mel could not close all through the heat.
Maggie kept her lead well, coming in
several lengths ahead, Colonel Just saw
ing his distance. Time. 2:524.

The track was quite heavy and slip

made large difference with the horses

quite lively, the pools being small but
numerous.
The number of spectators was not
large, but among them were well-known
sporting men from various points.
SECOND DAY.
The weather was all smiles and sun
shine yesterday. Perhaps there was a
little too much of the latter, but it
came into play well in drying up the
track and makingit fit to trot on after the
thorough soaking of the day before.
The morning attendance was not large.
but the crowd in the afternoon was
good, number of ladies being on the
ground.
So far the meeting has been a highly
successful one, and to-morrow's races
will close a season of sport, such as we
have seldom had in Rutland. The whole
thing has certainly been a credit to Mr..
Danforth, and it is earnestly to be hoped
that he will not relax his efforts to
bring. the Rutland trotting park into

WINTER DINNERS FOR NEwsBoYs.

The New-York Juvenile Guardian Society
started about three weeks ago the plan Of giving all the
hungry newsDoys daily dinner For this purpose
room in the Downtown Relief Office was fitted, and
here every week day. from $50 to $50 boys receive good
plate OF beef and vegetable soup and piece Of
bread From to p. newsbOys. bOOtblacks, and
other needy urchins admitted 40 at time to
their dinners. They dsorderly naturally but under
the direction OF the Rev d. j. Robertson, Secretary Of
the Society, and 5. p Pratt, they come and go with
little confusion. The directors not content with
giving them good dinner hut also try, by suitable in
ducements encourage them In staying at home in the
evenings instead OF at theaters and gambling places
Each boy name and residence taken, and his
cumstances investigated and those who prove worthy
of help encouraged The original plan to charge
the boys few cents for the NEAL but when especially
during the late cold weather poor snverlng boys with
out cent In their pockets and hardly able 10 artheuate
the cold, presented themselves, IL not in the
heart OF the superintendent TO turn them away Now
the dinners free but disOrdery boys admitted
rooms will be used as Downtown Relief Agency.
