stances.
The phraze, "under the circum-
stances" is used adyiscdly, for it is the
expression that is heard in this connec-
tion from almost every second person
met on the fair grounds.
What is meant is land as the question
IA on tie lips of so many hundreds OF
people, it should have general public
currency that with the restrictions as
they exist now on the carrying on of
THE fair, it is matter of wonder to
visitors, to horsemen, and to those who
frequent the great fairs of this circuit,
that the managers are met with such
fine attendance at the Wilmington Fair
as is seen.
The estimate Of attendance yesterday
is between 5000 and 1000.
The races at Hazel Dell yesterday
afforded ample interest TO those fond of
the exciting incidents of the track. The
first race passed Off without incident,
when, in the first heat Of the second the
spectators were suddenly filled with
horror over an accident which threat
ened at one moment to result very seri-
ously. The sulky Of Linkwood Chief
broke down with crash before the
'three-quarter pole was reached, and the
driver, X. T. Meginnis of Baltimore
was hurled headlong to the ground. G.
N. Barnard of Avondale, Pa, drove
klogul, and, on account of the dust, was
unable to discover the accident to Link
wood Chief until too late. Then there
was crash, and the driver of Mogu
lalso went down in the collision. Iii
was able to resume the next heat, how
ever, while the driver Of Linkwoo(
Chief retired from the race.
A feature of the races were the whee
events, which were not without an acct
dent. This occurred in the one mil
handicap when a collision occurred il
which five wheelmen were thrown Il
the ground. In this race j. II, Drape
of the Park Avenue Wheclmen, sus
tanned fracture of the arm which viii
prevent his riding in any more race
this season.
In the 2.30 class Nodne had yer
little difficulty in taking the race i
three straight heats. His best time wa
.2.251. Orange Chief took the 2.29 clas
race while Hattie H. won second none,
The third race proved an uninterestin
one. In the first heat Hermes A., Mis-
Woodford and Sonora were all distance
by Remolla and retired from the rae,
This left the event wholly betwee
Femolla and Wilton Greenways hors
Bronze, The former easily won in thrc
straight heats. The best time made WI
2.395. The summary follows:
