HARNESS RACES.

The marvellous work being done by the
PAGERS this season is attracting more than
ordinary attention to the turf this season,
and, indeed, for popular bigness, pacing
events seem 10 be taking the lead over
both trotting and running. Certainly
the king OF the turf today, OF all classes
is that marvellous young, big, strong
PAGER Joe Patchen, whom we expect TO
have the privilege of seeing in Rhod
Island in September, when the State
Fair opens. II is not to be forgotten, of
course, the new mark that Azote set for
the gelding championship in trotting,
the splendid work of William Penn, and
the record OF Bauzetta, the unbeaten
hlly. But elegant Joe Patchen is simply
worlds champion over all.
The early season achievements OF the
harness horses have caused good deal OF
doubt of their ability to hold out until
the big series OF fall events in which
they are expected to participate. Robert
j., who was the pacing monarch until
Joe Patchen captured the honor, the
other day, is, it is said, knee-sprung, and
will be withdrawn. AS matter of fact,
Of course, the gallant little animal was
never especially reliable as to legs, for
all his speed. And, in connection with
the concern as to the endurance OF the
flyers, has come up again the old discus
sion over racing by heats 1t has been
pointed out convincingly and often that,
1t the present speed, three-heat races are
100 severe tax upon both trotters and
oacers and the record of the running
urf supports the conclusion that at no
Instant day this method OF racing will be
lbandoned. AS horses came to run faster |
md younger, with corresponding In.
rease OF strain, distances were shortened |
nd heats dropped. During the last so |
ears the trotter has made very much |
'reater advance In speed than the run
Ter, and to repeat his heats now puts a
greater tax upon his legs.
ooner or later, not unlikely, the harness
vents will be conducted as are the run
ing races.
