STOCKTON, Sept. 21.-The attendance at
the track to-day was much larger, and as
the racing grows more attractive the crowd
will doubtless increase daily until the grand
climax on Saturday
The proceedings TO day opened with the
stock parade, which. owing to the number
and amount Of the premiums offered, was
unusually fine. All the PRINCIPAL stock
raisers of Northern California are here and
the pick Of the herds were paraded this
morning.
The racing opened with an interesting
fve-furlong dash, which was captured by
Alfred b in fair time. The two-year-old
trot was practically walkover for Aaron ),
but the three-year-old pace and the 2:25-
class trot brought out interesting contests
The weather, opening in the mo rnlng sultry
and hot, changed suddenly during The alter
noon. and greateoats and wraps were In re-
Quest before the spectators left the track.
