The cELERR.TloN,

A large crowd gathered in the city this
morning for the races and base ball
games. Headed by the Mechanics Band
the procession marched to the grounds
at 10 O'Clock.
The first race was three-eighth dash,
which proved pretty race. Five horses
were entered but only four started, Pad
dy O'Rlen, Bellinger, Joe ID and Scamp.
The latter named, fine bay owned by
Shultz Bros took the pole, but soon lost
it, and Joe D., Salem horse, gained the
lead coming in ahead by a small margin,
Paddy O'Rien second and Scamp third.
This afternoon the gentlemen's road ster
race for $50 and the free for all trot were
to come off beginning about o'clock,
both having filed.
Owing to numerous "kicks" the first
base ball game was not played in the
morning, but was postponed until
O'Clock, the two games being played in
the afternoon.
The first game Of base ball was called
at 2 o'clock between Scio and Albany,
John Simpson, of Scio, umpire. At press
time five innings had been played as
follows, Albany having an easy thing of
