the admission to the Grand Circuit OF the Gen.

ID at Old Fleetwood Park. and OF Detroit. OF
which Daniel J. Campau is the leading shirt.
III was the purpose OF the meeting to incrense
the earning capacity Of the trotter and to de-
part from the stereotyped ways pursued so
many years for the framing OF stakes and
CLASS races. Mr.. Hamlin is ambitious to make
'ne buhalo meeting the leading trotting
attraction OF the year. and he asked
Tor two weeks instead. Of one. as
heretofore. in which to show that the
city near Niagara Falls is able to support
nrst-class sport. He intends to offer purses

OF Fleetwood Park. and there is every reason
to believe that the new people In tho manage.
ment are going TO give the lovers of %trotting
most ardentiy. for years. In September the
thorouchbreds will be at Sheepshead Bay, and
Fleetwood will catch many a stray dollar that
would otherwise GO. to the bang tails should
the races be on Mt Morris Park. which is only a
few miles from. Fleetwood. 1t was uncon-
sciously n very clever move to give Fleetwood
from sept 5 to &. All that New York wants
now to make tho trotting horse as popular as
ever Is a driveway. and that must come in the
natural course OF events.
