RESULTS OF YESTERDAYS CONTESTS.
One of the successful meetings from /
financial point of view. ever held in this neighbour
hood ended at Jeron, Park yesterday. Its success

the plungers TO weep with him over the uncertainty
of racing when the class of the contestants Is on inc
level with the winter tracks. As a rule, the DOCK
makers will continue as heretofore to have a cola
bottle and hot bird with their luncheon. Inc
