Good DAYS RACING
Usual Attendance at Meeting Of the
Gentlemen Drivers.
MAGNOLIA ONE OF THE winners
Events Captured by Two Favortes
and Two Outsiders-Frank Haz-
Yards Dash Was a Ringer-Jack
and Frank n in the Leading Divi-
sion A Fast Track and Good
Fields-Oetails of the Sport.

The usual number OF persons wit
messed tho races OF the Gentlemen's
Driving club yesterday. Generally,
the heats We're closely contested and
the track was fast
Although the first race was announc.
ed to 10 called at 2 o'clock 1t was
nearly u half hour later before the
horses were called to the post for the
first heat and the last heat OF the last
race was not decided until 545
o'clock. Without disparaging the
efforts of the club to provide clean
and spirited sport. there is a
vast field for improvement in
being more expeditions. The twenty
minutes allowed between heats OF pro-
fessional races is to give the public
time to make bets and is the custom
where mile heats are trotted. At the
Driving clubs races only half-mile heats
are driven. and with a 5-minute wait
between the heats OF each race the
animals would have Commute rest
between heats.
That is the way the grsndstand audi
ence of yesterday commented, and as
the success Of the clubs races depends
upon its ability to please the spectators.
the proper officers will probably rectify
the matter at future meetings.
DASH WAS A RINGER.
Yesterdays road race and 2 50 event
were won handily by Frank Hazards
Dash and DR.. Hills Jack. The former
made his debut on the track and went
both heats under strong pull. He
clearly proved himself eligible to the
$50 class and will probably be ad'
yanced to that event the next time he
starts
The 3.minute and 2 40 classes devel
oped the best events of the meeting.
|. required five heats to decide the
former, st. Nick being scratched after
being driven two heats and Kitty be-
ing withdrawn after coming in hope
lessly last in the first heat The three
horses remaining were never separate d
by more than few lengths in the last
three heats and kept the crowd on tip
toe until the race was decided,
The star performers of the day ap-
peared in tho 2.40 event, and proved
conclusively that horse racing purely
conducted is indeed the sport of
kings" Magnolia proved herself the
speedier of the high grade quintette of
entries. Three heats were trotted, and
never until the stretch was reached at
least, was q heat a sinecure for the
winner. Magnolia's victory was pop
pular one. as she had host Of admir-
ers among the spectators, but the re-
suit might have been different II Aba
gail had not had fit Of the sulks after
capturing the first heat.

Dash might have walked in and won
the first race. Fr-d. considering that
| he was unfortunate in securing
positions in the scoring, made the
best showing Of the others. When Mr..
Dunn overcomes the stage fright, so
peculiar to a drivers first efforts, his
horse will yet win primary grade
race.
In scoring for the first heat of the
second race, Mr. Ssamans turned in
front of the field and in the collision
which followed the pneumatic of Dr.
Wentz came to grief. Jack won, with
Duke and Pet Hand rs his most dan.

Billy, Poor Richard and Frank II
were the only competitors in the 3 90
class after St. Nick and Kitty had bsen
withdrawn, Each had turn at lead
ing during the third heat. Frank H
went the distance to the quarter pole
in forty seconds fat, with Poor Rich
ard for close company. Billy made up
considerable lost ground and got

have been beaten out by Billy il the

quite easily. the poor behavior of
Keeley and Abigail leaving Johnny

lUC..l idnie Catlning Iiy last wor,.s,
this politician asked III loud, impressive
tones. What is the loss to few thou
sand woolgrowers compared to the gain
to 20, 900, 900 of consumers"
''Ah, | said, but You lIust remem-
Der that those 20, 600, 600 Consumers are
also producers. They produce the arti-
Giles which the woolgrowers consume.
The benefits are mutual, and all have
employment and money with which to
buy the products of the others. To see
the effect as whole you must apply
the same argument to everything. To
be consistent, If not wise, you would
have to make everything free. Then all
your 20, 900, 900 consumers would soon
find that they are producers also For
eign goods would take the place of
home products in our markets until our
people, thrown out of work by the ruin
of all our industries, would be too poor
to buy even the products of European
labor
We're not talking about free every
thing, - returned he of Cleveland stat
ure. I'VE don't want everything free,
so we don't have to apply 1T to every
thing. We're talking about free wool. "

abled to append to Hirst's biography OF
