Five Exciting Events-Two Favorites
That Were Not In 1t.
There was good average attendance at
the races in the afternoon, the track being,
as usual, in fine condition. The weather
was pleasant, with gentle breeze from
the south. Between the races the First
Artillery Band discoursed excellent
music. The judges stand was occupied
byPresident Cox and Directors Boggs and
Green. Timers-Direcor De Long, w. II.

noon was the Fairy stake, for all ages,
three-quarters of mile. The starters
were X. p. Ashes Geraldine ia, l.. j.
Roses Motto liz, Jones u Dunlap's Joshua
10l, and Encino Stables Condo 96. In the
pools Geraldine, the old campaigner, was
the tavorite at $50, against s. tor Motto
and 50 for the field.
The horses were a long time at the post,
and when the flag fell Geraldine, the IA
vorite, had the worst of it. She ran easily,
however, and made no push for the heat
until the homeStretch was reached, when
she went to the front and won by a couple
of lengths in l:14t, Joshua second, Condo
third and Motto last.

SECOND RACE.
The next event was free handicap for
three-year-olds aud upward, one mile
and furlong. The starters We're Initia-
ton los, Fannie L. los, Sheridan u.s.
In the pools Fannie sold for 500, against
S42 for Sheridan and $50 for Initiation.
The horses were sent Oft at the first
breakaway. Under the wire Initiation
trailing. These positions did not
change at any time during the
race. Sheridan's rider, Spooner,
evidently thought he could afford to make
a waiting race of it, for when the head of
the stretch was reached he called on the
old horse, but the response was weak, and
Initiation had plenty OF speed TO hold her
own. Both Fannie and Sheridan brushed
up, but could not reach the leader, who
won easily in 1:55. Fannie second.
