MONMOUTH PARK RACE TRACK, Aug. A.
There was a comparatively small crowd
here this afternoon, considerable less than
5000 people being present when Banquet, at
eveus, won the opening race in easy fashion
in 1:5s. Despite st MichaeIs good race with
Uncle Jess and Spartan last Tuesday,he was
sent to the post for the Camden stakes, 9
to chance. He won cleverly from the u to
l shot Chicago. In the Trenton stakes
Hapenny and Air Shaft fouIed each other
all through the last quarter, letting Kirsch

1:3s, makes a new record for a mile over q
straight course.
Salvador made it in 1855 in his celebrated
race against time, but Kirsoh's race Of this
afternoon may be cnronicled as the existing
mile record. Many of the spectators left
the track very much in doubt as to the cor
rectness of the time, but a strong wind was
blowing down the track, and it greatly as
sisted the racers in the flight of speed.
When Kingston was added to the list of
starters for the Eatontown stakes, Demuth

RAIN STOPPED THEM AGAIN.
Wet Weather Deals Badly With the Buffalo
Grand Circuit Races.

BUFFALO, Aug. 4.-[SpeciaL 1.-The Grand
Circuit races for to-day have been postponed
until tomorrow on account Of the bad con-
dition of the track caused by heavy rain
early this morning. Eleven events are still
unfinished, including three stakes, and these
are to come first. as they must be competed
for after the 2:21 trot, four heats of which
were decided yesterday. The 5000 stake for
2:27 trotters is on, and then comes that for
2:23 trotters, with the 2:23 pacing stake
after. The delay will be serious loss all
around, as many of the horses here will not
have a chance to fill their engagements.
After Nellie r trotted the second heat of
the 2:29 class in 2:2lH yesterday, John e.
Madden bought her Tor reported price of
$500. She Is to go in at Rochester and
Springfield in her class.
A. II. Moore, of Philadelphia, has secured
the services of George W. Saunders as
trainer. Saunders drove the demon, Cling
stone, in his races against Edwin Thorne.
He was afterward in charge OF William
Rockaeller's stable. but went back to the
turf last year. He will have all of Mr.
Moore's flyers but Mambrino Maid, and she
has gone to John Goldsmith, who took her

MINOR M'KEEsP0RT MATTERs
Telegraph Pole War-Street Car Repai
Shops-Horse Thieves

Telegraph Pole war-street Car Repair
shops-Horse Thieves.
MoKEEsPoRT. Aug. 4-[Specia War is
being waged by the city against the Western
Union Telegraph Company, which is likely
to be settled in court. Some time ago the
Councils passed an ordinance which pro-
vided that only octagonal poles be erected
within the city limits. This was passed
when the street car company asked permis-
sion to put up poles. The ordinance referred
to the car company and no other particular
company. To-day the telegraph company
attempted to replace the old poles with new
ones. The workmen attempted to cut the
old ones off and dig new holes, but the
property owners rebelled in manner which
almost eliminated in a fistic encounter.
The Mayor being absent, the Chairman of
Council was appealed to, and work was
stopped.
The McKeesport and Reynoldton Pas
seuger Railroad will have shops of its own
in this city, having purchased entire new
machinery in Pittsburg. The building will
be erected once.
A gang of horse thieves have Deen oper-
ating In this city for some time, and, it
seems, cannot be apprehended. Last even-
ing the stable of John Martin, of Reynold-
ton, was broken open and a valuable horse
stolen.

p0CKsTADER's DEBUT
The Bjjou Theater, Handsomrr Than Ever,
Opens for the Season.

The Bjou Theater, Handsomrr Than Ever,
Opens for the Season.
The Bijou Theater, brighter and more COM
Portable than ever, was opened for the sea-
son last night, and an immense audience
filed every seat and most of the standing
room. Lew Dockstaders minstrels were in
possession of the stage, and they could
hardly have asked for nicer match than
the weather and the greeting-both were
warm. If numbers and enthusiasm go for
ythfng, Pittsburg showed last night that
she wants summer theatricals. The Dock
stader programme is new and entertaining
enough in the main. Lew Dockstader, as
usual, is the keystone in the arch, and
his humor is just as dry and rs infectious as
ever His songs do not include anything
very startling in the way of wit, or catchi-
ness, but good deal OF fun of one sort or
another. His broad caricature OF the Presi-
dent and Mr.. Cleveland is very Iaughable
of course, although the question OF whether
such things are in good taste or even
decency might be asked. In any other
country but this Mr. Dockstader would only
burlesque the ruler of the land once-just
think of such performance in Germany
whew! But it must not be understood for a
moment that Mr.. Dockstader is not funny
in everything he does He Is beyond all
question one of the brightest comedians
extant.
The songs of J. C. Harrington. the old
Irishma1's ballad German yodel song and
plantation darky ditty. were eXcellent; the
versatility of this actor is quite remarkable.
He is q graceful dancer also. william
Rowe's pedestal clog dance is a wonderful
performance in its way-an awfully warm
way last night one would think. There is a
weakness in the sentimental end of the pro-
gramme. Nothing so effective as last sea-
sons "Picture Turned to the WALL" WAS
trotted out, and while Harry Leighton sang
"My Mothers Goodnight Kiss" prettily
enough, and j. NJ. Woods rendered Bring
Back the Old Smile" with delicate express
sion and much sweetness, it cannot be said
that either song appeals to the heart. As
some minstrel songs have done. 1t is curl
GUS. indeed, how narrow is the channel Of
melody and matter with popular song
writer's nowadays. For topical songs Old
airs are still preferred.
In the second part the musical fooling of
Fake and Lemons was good, and Blocksom
and Burns mock gymnastic feats were sim
ply side splitting. Indeed, the audience
was in roars all evening, and the indorse-
ment of Dockstader's efforts could hardly
have been heartier. If any objection is seri-
ously to be made to details, the introd uc-
ton of an Objectionable verse into one OF
Mr.. Dockstader's songs msrits it. Surely 1t
Doesn't pay to offend against propriety even
in fun. The new drop curtain and decorations
OF the Bijou Theater, which have already
been described here, including the hew pro-
gramme. which is neat ana tasteful, were
greatly admired.
