Clubs Spring Meeting.
: The largest attendance of the week was
that of Saturday The weather was very
pleasant, and everybody seemed to be good
natured. The days programme was long
one. and the horses were called up for the
unfinished free-for-all trot about l o'clock,
but it was half an hour later before they
began to score James Sullivan appeared
behind Albert W, in place of George Leihy.
The scoring was very tedious, owing TO
e Albert w. persistence in breaking into a
run before he reached the wire and it was
" not until the nineteenth attempt, when
horses and drivers were well tired, that a
start was effected for the
SMITH HEAT.
Albert w. took the lead and held il to the
quarter, but was soon afterwards passed by
Romero and Vanderlyn. At the upper
turn Vanderlyn was two lengths behind
the gray but was alongside at the three
quarters, where Goldsmith applied the
silk to Romero. The latter was unable to
respond, and Nanderlyn won easily in 2:304.
without having made skip, Romero sec
ond Prior to this heat pools had sold at
five to one on Romero and his defeat made
a great stir among pool men, who soon es-
tabllshed Vanderlyn as flvOrite. Each of
the horses had now two heats to his credit.

stood between Vanderlyn and Albert w

SEVENTH HEAT
Peter Brandow held the lines over Albert
w, Sullivan being tired out At the tap of
the bell Romero started for the lead, and
held it to the homestretch, Vanderlyn sec

three-quarters Albert w closed up, and
there was pretty race down the stretch,
Nanderlyn finally winning by length in
go, Albert w. second. The latter was set
back by the judges for running, and Ro-
nero was given second place and second
money.
