The last two heats Of this race were rotted Thurs.
day morning.
No accidents of note marred the pleasure
Of the day, and few intoxicated men were
seen. The fireworks in the evening were
fitting close TO first-class celebration. To
the enterprise of II. A. Rugg, manager Of
the trotting park, is largely due the success
of the programme carried out at the trot-
ting park, which was one of the largest
given in New England, and was varied to
meet the wants of all. The track having
been altered, was not in the condition in
tended by the manager and under these
considerations 1t was impossible for Fac
tory Boy to break the state record. He
will make another attempt on the same
track next Friday, with better chances of
success Manager Rugg announced to the
public his inability to furnish band as adj
vertised. This was due to the fact
that some of the members of the Gran
ite City Band had Joined the new
Barre Cornet Band. This explanation was
satisfactory to everybody. The crowd was
the largest ever upon the grounds and
grand stand, with the exception of the day
Forepaugh's circus was in Barre, and there
was a noticeable lack of the kicking GUS
tomary on such occasions. Excellent order
was maintained and no arrests were made.
