NORRIS PARK, June lit Is hard to
estimate an attendance at Morris Park.
because the place is so vast in its pro-
portions A thousand people looked
like a handful by the time they were
scattered through the grand stand, in
the paddock and in the betting room.
There were, however, at least 1900
people present at the track today, and
fully 5000 people came to see the
Princess Eulalie watch the races. The
other 1000 paid but little attention to
the royal visitor, but devoted them
selves to picking winners from an eX-
celIent card. The programme had two
features, the Toboggan Slide handicap,
which included all the fast sprint
ers, and the Sea and Sound stakes, in
which some of the best of the three
year-olds are entered. The weather
was superb and the track in fine condl-
ton. The opening event was scram-
bic for two-year- olds, in which very lit
tie interest was taken, poor lot being
entered. The Mars-Banquet duel In
the second race was grand one. Ban
ouet out-stayed his rival, who was all
ont at the finish. The time was very
fast.
The Toboggan Slide handicap proved
a surprise. Yemen was backed as
though it was all over. There was a
delay of fully twenty minutes at the
post before the red flag went down and
the thirteen contestants began the
struggle for the rich
TOboggan Slide Stakes.
Sirocco was the quickest to move,
with G.. w, johnson, st. Florian and
Yemen in close attendance, and set
killing pace to the last furlong post.
Siroc3o then began to hold out signals
of distress. Prince George went to the
front, and after a severe struggle won
a good race by length. Yemen, ridden
out, beat G. w. Johnson, VINO was slow
in getting away. by neck for the place.

ard Croker.
In the Sea and Sound stakes Chorister
jumped away in front and then dropped
into third place, while Comanche,
Tapped to the throat by St.D0mlngo, went
out and set the pace. A furlong from
home Chorister moved up, and again
light pressure, and won by length and
a half from Gov. Foraker, who beat st.
Domingo head for the place. Results:
