THE RUTLAND RACES.

seven appeared on the track. The result of
the race was disappointing in more ways
than one. Those who expected close
contest we're disappointed in seeing old Joe
Brown walk right out of the bunch Of |
horses behind him on every heat Those
who expected very great speed were disap- |
pointt TO see him win In 1921, which |
though the fastest time ever made on the |
track, is slow for horse with 81 record. |
Lastly, those who put their money on Jer- |
ME Holton, and there were plenty Of them,
we're sorely surprised to see her win third |
money. The race itself, however, was a
good one and good deal of interest was
shown. The entries were as follows

60" shouted the judge on the sixth
score, and away they sprang. Joe and Cas-
tie Boy drew on out of the clump, leaving
tho others some lengths behind at the
Curve, while they sped down the back
stretch like the wind. At the quarter
Castle Boy led, Joe pressing him hard I'M
der heavy blows of the whip. st. Charles
came on third, and back nearly the last OF
the cluster was Jennie Holton, the favorite,
breaking badly. Around the curve they camo
t. the half, Castle Boy still leading and trot-
ting 10 fue shape. Joe was close on him,
hardly half length between them, while
behind came st. Charles, leading the van
of the tagging horses, with Jennie just be-
hind him on level trot for the first time.
Ga they sped to the three quarters, Castle
Boy still leading, and Joe pressing him
holy. Just beyond the pole the work was
too much and up he went In the air. Be-
fore he could regain trot Joe was by and
leading into tho curve to the cheers of tho
stand Down they came over the home
stretch, tho Boy doing nobly, but he could
not regain the advantage he lost on his
break and Joe passed under the wire two
lengths ahoad in 2.S22 St Charles was
third, Jennie Holton fourth, Bar
ney Kelley fifth, Aunie Collins

complaint of Joes driver whipping, which
was kept up almost throughout the heat
but the positions were given as they came
10. After this heat pools sold briskly, aud
strange to say, with Holton as favoriie
she selling for twelve against ten for Jot
{ Brown, and eight for the field.
