LYDIA 3. WINS TIE RACE.

and Takes the Sweepstakes.

The trotting race at Lasster's course
Yesterday evening was extremely interest.
ING and was witnessed by large crowd Of
spectators. Before the start had been
given Mr.. Fisher withdrew his nag, think
inc her speed insufficient, leaving the fol-
lowing animals to figure in the contest ::
Dashwood, owned by Lassitcr; Scotch
GIrl. owned by Mr.. Thomas Anderson, ana
LYDIA T., owned by Mr.. Preston Bclv.D.
and entered from the Acca stock farm.
Tho horses are nearly of ID size and their
speed is pretty even.
ONLY THREE HEATS.
There were only three heats. The colt
from the Aeon came out ahead in each Of
these. which won the race. the conditions
being that the horse winning tho best
three ont Of five heats should be entitled
10 tho stakes.
There was very little trouble in starting
the animals. They seemed eager for the
contest ana when 10 was over they We're
not tagged out or exhausted. as IS usually
the case.
In the starting Lassitor's colt took the
pole. but upon breaking lost II. Four
breaks in tho first heat undoubtedly ham
pered Dashwood, though lac pressed for
ward with great strides IN each heat. The
first mile circle was made by LYDIA B. III

behind.
WON WITH EASE.
In the second and third heats the colt
from tho Acca made easy victories IN 3:0sll
and 3:O5i !. respectively. though Lassiter's :
NAG made the contest quite warm, and but
for continuous breaks would probably
have made better speed.
The sweepstakes amounted to $500.
