There was, however, on the grand stand
benches more black forms and fair faces
than on any day of the previous week,
though this did not count up more than 300
or 400 people.
The bill, while not brilliant one as far
as fast time goes, nevertheless had six en-
tries in the trotting race. four in the pace
and four in each of the running races.

marred by D. D. Johnson, the starter. get
ting at loggerheads with the spectators
and Jockeys under his thumb This was
largely the result of poor judgment and
lack of familiarity with the rules which
gave the fault-fnders an inch, to take an
acre when the decisions were intended to
be perpendicular.
Sam Mcintyre was again in his sulky
and handled the ribbons over Coxcomb, who
was true as steel under whip anu whaling,
and won first money against five compel
itors in three straight heats.
Brine Tricks an Ogden horse, was an
easy winner OF the $3.50 pace, though he

in the pools 2 to to to win the i've eighths
dash, but Its JOCKEY dumped the talent by
Indifferent riding, allowing Nora G to win

the crowd that there was more money in
the pool box in these small dash purces than
in running for the money.
