PRINCEWOOD WON
But His Driver Had to
Be Changed.
Dustin Succeeded Smith in the SuIky
and Then Beat Alviso, the Fa-
yorite-The Summaries.

There was not great deal of Interest
manifested in any of the trotting races yes
terday excepting the last, which was won
by Princewood after good deal of shift
ing aud switching and laying up of heats.
Alviso on his performance at San Jose,
where he trotted heat in 2:26, was the
favorite, selling at $50 against $40 for
the field and $40 on Prncewood. In the
first heat he was not out, aud good, honest
old Pattie p was allowed to win it in
2:30%. Princewood was second, and he
was so palpably laid uD that the judges
cautioned Smith, his driver. Alviso was
still the favorite, and the ease with which
he won the second heat seemed to justify
the confidence placed in him. Princewood
was close up though. and in the next heat
beat the favorite through the stretch and
won by half length. Alviso tiring badly.
Then the money of the hedgers went on
Princewood, but he was beaten in the
fourth heat. Those who had bet on him
raised fearful howl. the result being that
Smith was taken out Of the sulky and
Dustin substituted. Whether or not Smith
had pulled his horse or Dustin was several
seconds faster driver. of course could
not be settled. At any rate the change
ked well, for Princewoud took the
next two heats, although he tired badly In
the last one. and it was only by careful
nursing that Dustin brought him first
under ihe wire
A big pot of money was lost on Alviso
by men who do rot always bet on the
fastest horse in the race.
The two-year-0ld race was won by
Swlftbird, who broke badly in the first
of IN ol huf Inh
Bury, who took the heat, was made tre-
mendous favor;te. but he proved to be a
counterfeit, and finished last in every
heat but the first.
In the special pace Vidette was picked
out as the winner, and she was played at
$40 against 81 for Like Like and S4 for
the field. These odds prevailed even after
Daisy Nc captured the first heat, appar-
emily in hollow style. Vidette then wont
out and won as she pleased.
