favorite at $2S, and $50 In the field. The
heat was exciting. Hancock broke on the
start and fell to the rear and LongIellOW
Whip took the lead, followed by Viliette and
Harry G. In this order the horses went into
the cut aud came out. On sthe home-stretch
the whip went up and Villette passed him,
taking first place, followed by Harry G, who
fell in a close second. TIE horses were
punched to the wire, but Villette was on her
mettle and won by half length, Harry Q
second Longfellow Whip third and Hancock
fourth. Time, 2:27%.
Fourth Heat-Pools were selling with Harry
G and Villette favorite at $40 and $50 in the
field. The horses started well and it was no
body's race to the quarter, when V1uette
made a bid for the lead and took it, closely
followed by Longfellow Whip, Hancock and
Harry G. On the back stretch Villette aud
the Whip contested for first place, but the
bay mare held her own and went into the cut
ahead. Near the half Hancock went off his
feet and was passed by Harry @. The horses
came out from behind the hill in this order,
and the race from the three-quarter post be-
tween Villette and the Whip was u hard one,
but the mare won. Time, 2:261..
Fifth Heat-Even now pool buyers were
loath to believe that Villette would win the
heat and the field was greedily bought at $50,
while Villette brought but $40. AT the start
Hancock went of his feet, Longfellow Whip
took the lead at the pole, but Villette drew
up on HIM and robbed him of the lead. Harry
@ was u close third and Hancock brought up
the rear, running on the outside, and he kept
it up TO the quarter. The race was good
one to the finish, but Villette held her feet
splendidly and came in good winner. Time.
2:25.

THE TWO PAGERS.
But two heats OF the special pacing race
for purse of $1,000 between Mike Wilkes
and Little Mac were paced, and each horse
had one heat to his credit. The third and
decisive heat was postponed until to-day at
l o'clock p. IN. The exhibition was inter-
esting, but from the way that the horses
were sent around the course it was evident
that the Detroit gelding was too speedy for
the Saltwater bay,
ONE HEAT EACH.
First Health the pools Little Mac was the
favorite at $40 and Wilkes S13. The horses
were sent away IN grand shape and went
neck and neck to the quarter, when Wilkes
drew ahead, taking the poll and keeping
lead of two lengths to the wire. Time, 2;1S.
Second Heat-POols sold even at $50. Wilkes
took the lead from the start and Little Mac
followed him around a length behind. 1t
looked as though the Saltwater horse would
viii easily. On the home stretch Little Mac
left his feet but soon caught, and just then
Wilkes went up, and before he could settle
down Mac had passed him and led to the
finish, winning the heat. Time. 2:l9.
