BRIGHTON'S SEASON OVER.
CLOSE OF A SUCCESSFUL MEETING.
SOME IMPROVEMENTS THAT MIGHT BE MADE AT

SOME IMPROVEMENTS THAT MIGHT BE MADE AT
THE TRACK-THE LAST DAYS RACING.
Brighton Beach. so far racing Is concerned. will
not be heard from again until next year AS the
meeting excelled all others ever held at the track
the racegoers who patronized II so literally Ter
vently hope that George Engeman. the proprietor.
Will dispense with his numerous stan OF ADVISERS
and endeavor to elevate the standard OF racing at
Brighton. II he Is wise he will loose no time In
tearing down the unsghtly, dapidated structures
called the grandstand and betting ring. and burn
up the debris Every one OF the old stables should
be removed and replaced by new ones. The entire
track should be reconstructed. so as to have the
grandstand face the ocean and 20 have wider turns
and stretches with three-fourths OF mile chute
He certainly should erect new number and jockey
board. so that racegoers may be able to decipher
the numbers and the names OF the Jockeys. 1t Is
not at all likely that Mr.. Engeman will make these
changes. some OF his chief advisers ambitions
do not above 800 purses and electric light
racing over half-mile track. IL Is TO be hoped
that the vigorous policy OF the Brighton stewards
Will be continued at the other racetracks
Throughout the meeting the races have been az
fairly contested as on the tracks OF the Jockey
Club Although the purses were small. as rule
the money divided among many owners. The
following stables won over 5000:
NJ +. Dwyer. $500; Oneck Stable. A.li5 Blemton
Stable. S.475: w. J. Roche. 1890 w. jennings.
$780, w. +. Jennings. $500: George Forbes s2475:
&32j w. NJ. Barrick. $3.50.
The total amount offered in purses by the associa
ton was slOl 700 AS the net profits averaged about
$500 a day. making a total OF nearly s22ioo horse
owners believe that the management should give at
least 5000 in purses every racing day As some Of
the more pretentious racing men who are Inter
ested in racetracks are no more liberal than Mr.
Engeman. II IL probable that the purses
will be increased than that the track and It's sur
roundngs Will be changed.
ANOTHER JOCKEY UNDER A CLOUD.
There are reasons to believe that the stewards at
Brighton Beach will report another jockey to the
stewards OF the Jockey Club II the jockey Is re-
ported the difficulties experienced by the Brighton
stewards in eradlcating fraud will be partially ex
posed. The case Is a peculiarly pathetic one. ana
