The last event that closed the days
program was intensely exciting. Six of
the daisies" pranced, and capered about
the wire fora start Miss Payne, Nau-
cluse, Joybell, Frost, Edison and Carney.
Edison captured the start, and maniully
fingered in that position until after he
had turned into the home stretch, when
Nauclusc, who had been logging at the
brave sorrcl's heels, Tapped him, and pull
ed under the wire amid thunderous of
applause in l.5O Considering the condi-
ton of Edison, the horse certainly did
noble work, and aside from this was
carrying much more weight than Vau-
cluse. JOybell, the two-year old flly,
captured third place.
The races certainly were excellent, and
the interest manifested by the spectator
clearly proved such to be a fact
THIRD DAYS RACING.
The first event Of the day was Il run
ming race one and a quarter mile dash,
purse $3.50, with the following starters
Jim Casey, Vaucluse, Joybell and Frost.
After little pirouting the string were
sent away. The horses punched well
with the exception of Joyhell, who trail
ed antrun easy. On entering ON the
last quarter of the mile Nancluse bolted
to the outside and lost the little advan-
tage he had, following hoplessly in the
rear. He never recovered. Joybell, on
the contrary, improved her chances, and
on the last quarter shot to the front and
run home an easy victor, with Jim Casey
who had made hard fight, second, Frost
third, Time 210l.
The 80 class of trotters were next
brought into play Five responded out
of an entry of six, as follows Louise,
Ike Medium, Alice ADDISON. j. A. II. and
Efiie q. Before the start was made it
was well understood that the race would
be trottcd upon its merits, and surely no
one was disappointed in the end. Ike
Medium surprised many by his perform
ance. lie was very sore and should not
of been started. lie was distanced in
the first heat At the first turn in the
send off Addison scored to the front, but
before the half was gone Louise captured
the gamy mare, and carefully guarded
the coveted place gained to the finish in
2.35, Addison second, j. \. T. third and
Efiie g. fourth.

and the positions were materially chang
ed. Addison, with her usual good luck
took the pole at the first corner and al
though LOuise contested the ground from
time to time, Addlson's nose shot under
the wire in 233i Ellie q. opened the
eyes of the boys in this heat, as he gave
u fine exhibition of speed at the finish
of the heat, beating Louise, and chasing
Alice.
In the third heat Addison scored away
closely followed by Louise and Eilie G.
and before the first quarter had been
trottcd, Fife glided to the front i'm spite
ofopposition, and she came home an easy
winner in 2.3l, Louise second, Addison
third. and j. 4. 7. fourth.
Ellie led the quarter away in the fourth
heat. Every body looked to the little
mare to go right ahead and win, and
many of the sports laid their money to
that effect. One old blood from Balti-
more gave great odds, taking the mare
as "sure thing" The old fellows knit
jactet seemed TO ill-fit him after the close
of this race. The little mare undoubtcd-
ly had the speed but not the staying
qualities After sharp brushes between
Addison and Louise they passed Ellie q
on the home-stretch; Louise's nose under
the wire first 2.33, Addison second, Ellie
third After heat j. A. 4. was drawn.
Now Louise was looked for the winner
with few supporters for Addison, but the
gray mare revived the spirit of good feel
; ing that is always accorded her at the
fair and on the last half in the fifth heat
collared Louise, drew away, and came
under the wire handily in 1881. The
last heat was trotted in the midst of Il
thunder storm which came up suddenly
| after the fifth heat The track was in
. consequence, Il trifle heavy. Addison
scored away finely followed by Louise
and EiIic &. Addison had picnic in thi,
heat and logged under the wire in 2,4t
amid deafening applause, winning til,
race, Louise second, Ellie third.
The second running race of the day
was mile dash, and it had three nomi
nations: Miss Payne, Korcc and Mack
all of Baltimore. Korec won in easy
; style in l.52, Mack second and Mis-
Payne third.
