The Races.
The attendance at the Park to witness the
afternoon races was the largest Of the
season. Every seat on the grand stand was
filled and many stood in the aisles. The
special stand was well filled, the quarter
stretch, inside track and paddock full of
people, and the free seats on the cattle sheds
well patronized. The track was in prime
condition and very fast. The weather,
although somewhat warmer than any pre-
vious day Of the fair, was pleasant, a slight
breeze prevailing from the south
The first event of the day was running
dash Of one mile-the Sunny Slope stake
for two-velr-OIds. The entries were Muir
rays Estin, Todhunter u Aliens Alta
and Hill d Cries Arthur II. The horses
when they came on the track were perfect
equine beauties, all looked to be iii first
class condition, and the hackers Of each
felt confident Pools sold lively at about
the following average EstilL $40; Alta,
$50: Arthur H., ST %. The judges took
Alta in charge, complaint having been
made that Estill and Alta both belonged to
the same party and that he would not be
run to win the race. Monroe Johnson,
who was to ride Alta, was deposed and Geo.
Howson sent FOR. This seemed to givev very
general satisfaction, and made Alta 60 up
in the pOOl-boX until lac sold even with the
favorite This action ON the part of the
Judges before the start of the horses was
loudly app.auded and assured the public
that there could be no Jobs if it could
be prevented. The horses were given posi-
lions as follows Alta the pole, Arthur II.
second, EsjiN on the outside. Alta was
ridden by George HowsOn, Arthur II. by
VIM. Applebv. and Estill by Patsy Duffy
The horses were started very evenly on the
second trial Alta led ON the turn, Estill
second, Arthur II. third Before they
reached the quarter Alta took the lead,
passing tie quarter in .Z5} Estill on his
llauk and Arthur H. a length behind
They went down the quarter-stretch at a
ratlijug -ait, the horses maintaining the
same position to the half, which was passed
in 30. Patsy Duffy did some pretty
riding on the upper turn and yain.y en-
deavorel ub-!n4the handsome chCstuutCOlt
alongside of his half brother the beautiful
black. Geo. HoWsJn thc rider ofAlta, passed
the score three lengths ahead of EStill in
the fast time of l.42l. Arthur II. q good
third. The Judges announced that ths5 was
the fastest time on record for tWO-year-OdS
When Alta came in winner there was q
wild shout from the grand and special
stands, and In fact from all portions OF the
race-c1urse even the occupants in the
judges stand participating. The sports had
put mp "a job to rob the people and had
IN mselye, been taken in. 1t was case Of
the bitter being bitten.
