Johnston were actively employed
| around the Judges stand and by their
attention and care did much to make
the races satisfactory.
THE PARK HOTEL.
The Park Hotel was thronged during
the day and the balcony crowded with
ladies interested in the opening of the
races. Whether the fair ones INDUCED
in betting at the exciting moments,
we do not know, but we SAW handker-
chiefs and gloves waved froantically
| and heard an immense amount OF vi
vacious talk, that almost amounted TO
applause.

Tormento was the favorite i'm the
pools. Tormento drew the pole, Prince

THE POOLS.
OF course "Chico,n Forster's gelding
''Tormento," was the favorite and
pools sold lively. The sporting men
of this city seemed to have implicit
| confidence in the mouse colored trot-
| ter and backed him handsomely. Mr..
Welch's entry was withdrawn, leav-
ing the race between Tormento, Glad
stone, Barbara and Prince.
THE TRoTrING RACE
After number of false starts the
horses got ofl'in splendid shape and
| had spirited heat, though there was
considerable breaking, but nothing
serious. Gladstone won the heat in
1:491
The second heat was not so lively as
the first, and the impression got out
| that Welch was holding TormentO in
to keep him fresh for the last three
heats. Barbara won the heat pretty
easily In 1852.
In the third heat Prince was dis
tanced and TOrmento won the heat in
2:45i Gladstone coming in second and
Barbara third.
The fourth and fifth heats were won
by TormentO in an easy jog in 2:444I
and 2:l2i respectively, Gladstone COM
ing in second and Barbara third. The
Judge announced that TormentO won
the last three heats and the race, Glad
stone winning second money.
THE RUNNING RACE.
The mare Aileen Oge was with
draYn OH account of sickness, and the
race was run by George Temple, Lady
Amanda and Chance, carrying respec-
lively l12, l0l and so pounds. There
was considerable betting before the
start between the friends of Lady
Amanda and Chance the latter being
| the favOrite.
In the first heat George Temple led
at the quarter pole, but soon dropped
| behind both his contestants, and the
heat was won by Chance in l:4Si, Lady
| Amanda second and George Temple
third.
GThe second and third heats were rep
etitions of the first as to order, and
| We're won by Chance in 1:48a and l.50l
respectively, LadyAmanda and George
Temple following.
| This closed the days sport, and the

joyed the fine weather and the races
hugely.
