THE WATERBURY, RACES.

Two Glasses Decided in Three Heat.
Each-Program for To-Day - Next
Week at Now Britain.
The three minute class, with five starters
was first on the program at the third day
of the races at the Waterbury Driving
park yesterday afternoon. The judges
were: George A. Hayden of Hartford
starter; Alfred Hicks of Providence and
Judge E. F. Cole, associate judges. The
attendance was good, when the other at
fractions of the afternoon are considered.
The parade, review and picnic of the fire
department of Waterbury undoubtedly
kept many people away from the track. A
very large number of teams were inside
the half mile circle, some of them being
fine pairs and many of them very nice
single horses.
There was good patronage at the pool
stand, where Auction was barred, as he
was considered sure winner. Cheshire
sold at $40 against $40 for the field.
Only three heats were necessary to de-
eide the race. Auction won first money,
$3.50; Cheshire Boy second money, SIS;
Thetis third money, $40; Lolita 2. fourth
money, $50.
