STOCKTON, Sept. 20.-The second days
racing of the fair was poorly attended, and
lt is evident that the people are not thor
oughly warmed up for the annual carnival
The day was beautifully sunny, with a
cool breeze blowing, and the track hard and
fast
The racing was somewhat tame, being
very one-sided and confined chiefly to dis
trict horses in the slower classes.
The short-enders' luck seemed to have
come with them from Sacramento. and
those of them who were induced to make
books had ample opportunities for doing so
and making sure winnings.
The district yearling trot was won by the
Mount Vernon FLY Sadie Nc. driven in the
best time Of 3:05A. First rate for young
ster.
Speculation ruled very lively all the after
noon. The directors have wisely retained
the services of the First Artillery band from
Sacramento, and they played selections be-
tween the races in their well-known artistic
style.
First Race.
The opening race was the special trot for
local horses, and four came up for the
seore-Lulu, John l.. Sullivan, Maude and
Anterum. John l. was fav0rlte at S25,
Maude brought 81 and the field 81. There
was an even, start at the fifth attempt.
Maude with the pole trottng ahead, half
length lead of the favorite. This pair led
ell around to the stretch in the same posi-
ton. jonathan made drive on John

a break, an open length in front Of John l..

John l. breaking at three different stages In
the heat. Time, 2:3Sh.
There was race in the third heat, Billy
jonathan driving John l. right upto Maude,
looked like Maude'5 race. The Boston boy
came very fast in the stretch again and was
at Maude's wheels 100 yards from home, but
broke and swerved, frightening the mare,
and she mixed it up. too John caught
the quickest, and coming on took the heat
by length in 2:S7h. The Short-enders
were JubIant, as Mauda bad been selling at
500 against S25 in the field.
The fourth heat furnished some excite
ment, the field now selling first choice.
John l. went ont in front and stayed there
to the drawgates. Maude broke on the
first turn and again on the back stretch. but
came at a lively rate. gaining on the Dugil-
istc equine every second. Just then the
latter made terrible mix up of it and
Maude, trotting squarely, passed him and
won the heat and race in walk. Time,
2:37h.
