Fine Weather, Big Crowd and Good Rae
ing Favor the Event.
CINCINNATI, Aug. 29.-This was a lovely
day for the ushering of the long fall meet
ing of the Latonia races. Over $500 people
went to the beautiful track to witness the
sport Never in the history of this track
was it in better condition than to-day. The
grand stand was bouquet of gay garments
and bright faces. A very large number of
women were present. Merchants, judges,
physicians and lawyers-all the professions
were represented in the crowd of men
that thronged the grounds between races.
The races themselves were nearly all well
contested, and the decisions of results gave
perfect satisfaction. J. G. Sheridan served
with his well-known ability as starter.
There was some disappointment in the fail
ure of Chief Justice and Kingman to start in
the fourth race, but otherwise the day
passed without incident worthy of mem
tion. Results follow:
First race. one mie-Fleur de Lis first. Donnel
second, Corinne Kenny third. Time, 1:454.

HARTFORD, CONN, Aug. 29.-Though
Charter Oak Park had touch of bad luck
yesterday when the rain prevented con-
tinuance of the grand circuit meeting it was
clear and cool this morning, SO that the
well-drained track was quite dry at noon,
when the horses were summoned for their
last engagements The card which included
four class events and several specials was
disposed of in good season. G. j. Hamlin's
triple team carried off the honors for
speed at the trotting gait by mile in 2:15H
and Hal Pointer lowered the race rec
ord for the track py pacing heat in
2:I2. The triple hitch was to be Belle Ham,
lin, Globe and Playboy, but the latter was so
unsteady that aftera few scores, Justina was
put in his place. Geers rated the trio to tho
quarter in 3S seconds, made the next two
quarters in S4A seconds each and then came
home In SO seconds.
The 221 class had Illinois Egbert and
Jesse Hanson for choices, but the latter was
not equal to a heat. Fred Folger won the
first by two lengths in 1904 but Illinois

QUITE A CONTEST.
The Wilkinsburgs Defeat the Mansdelds
After Hard Fought Battle.

The Mansfield and Williamsburg County
League teams met yesterday for tho second
time this season and divided the honors,
Williamsburg winning Yesterdays game after
close and hard play for nine innings, as the
score below will fully show. The game was
close and exciting throughout. being tie
until the ninth inning. The feature of the
game was the beautiful and marvellous play
of Third-baseman Allen, of Mansfield, who
will play al! around some men now covering
that bag for National League clubs. Allen
is beyond all doubt the best thtrd-baseman
in the County League to-day. The play of
Miller and McElroy, of Williamsburg, was of
the fine order. CreiS, McGovern and Per-
kins won fresh laurels for themselves, each
doing his part in the most appoved style.
The score:

SHEEHAN DEFEATS WHITE.
The Veteran Wins a Good Race by q Short
Distance.

Inc veteran WINS u eOOu race Dy . snort
Distance.
There was quite a good attendance at
Homewood Pa TX yesterday afternoon to
witne IS the race between d. r. Sheehan and
Grant White. They ran 100 yards for $500
side and the former won after considerable
excitement. John j. Quinn was referee and
George Smith pistol firer.
The betting was quite lively just before
the runners appeared on the track. The
Sheehan party seemed to have lots of conf
dence and backed their man exceedingly
well at even money. Unfortunately when
the men got set at the mark White got away
before the pistol and had to be put back
yard. This caused the odds to go on Shee-
han. When the runners got started good
race began. White struggled and gained
little after so yards had been run. Sheehan,
however, who is about 40 years old, ran with
remarkable speed and finally won by q half
yard amid great excitement.
Several persons who timed the men had
their time 10 Is seconds and one man had it
101a. The White party lost considerable
money.
