tiresome scoring to begin the first heat Of
this class, Dolly Il. showing a propensity to
run 10 getting away; Finally they got the
break to start With, bat steadying down to
close conflict with st. James. The latter,
however, kept the lead, although 1t was
close all through. AT the close st. James
came first. with Dolly H.. next, breaking
some, while together aud long distances be-.
hind were Milton f., and @. 7. NJ. close
pressed by Dick Clark.

ter than others, as all three last horses, Nil
ton H., Dick Clark and Q. T. NJ. were dis
tanced.
The first heat had been so disastrous that
the two survivors, St. James and Dolly H.,
were able to get away without any scoring.
st. James went ahead and kept the lead
through the quarter and half. But Just past
the half st. James broke, allowing Dolly ii.
to come up. But st. James soon steadied
down and resumed the lead, which he kept
throughout. Dolly IL. broke as they came
down the home stretch, and was running as
M
st. james and Dolly Ii. got away In good
order and very nearly together. st. James
soon broke and Dolly II. got the pole tempo
rarily. But Scribner soon put st. James
ahead, IS Dolly FL. broke at the quarter. At
the half the two were well together, ST. James
leading. For the latter half Dolly III. broke
considerably, but managed to keep close to
st. James, and down the home stretch came
up abreast Under this pressure the latter
broke and Dolly IL. went an inch ahead but
also broke, and the two horses went under
the wire running.
The race was given to st. James as he had
trottet an honester race. The summary:
