AS THE CROWDS COME OUT.

AS usual verdi's music and the Hinrichs
Opera Company attracted and entertained
a large and fashionable asse mblage
last night at the Academy of Music. All
of the boxes Were filled.
The opera was 1.-THE Masked Ball. p"
There is q fine chance for the baritone in
this melodious opera, and SigDor Camp
anari as Renato rose to the occasion. His
closing scene and aria in the third act
was applauded vigorously and justly. Sig
nor Del Papa sang and acted well as
Richard. Miss Myra French's airs in the
third act and the fourth was Literally
applauded.
Madame Koert-KTonold presented Amelia
dramatically and musically with great ef-
feet, and her good work earned for her
an increase of reputation.
At the close of the opera, Canpanari,
Del Papa, Miss French and Madane Koert
Kronold were called before the curtain
The choruses in the fourth act were ac
ceptably sung. The opera tonight will

Pirate Chief seems to be rounding to
in great shape. He has been lame for some
time past, but yeste rday won his race
in handy fashion. c. Donnelly, who rode
him, was very sick, almost falling off
the horse near the finish.

In the third race Pomona Belle fen on

The fact that the Brooklyn handicap was
to be run yesterday drew out the largest
crowd which has been seen at st. Asaph
this spring Only ten boOkmakers went on,
and they had a hard time handling the money
that came in. The betting ring was filled
to the point of suffoeatIon, and during the
running of the GTavesend race everyone
crowded around the foreign book.
The racing at st. Asaph was of the first
class order, the finish in the fourth race
between Doc Birch and ValkyTie being very
close aud exciting.
Now that the Brooklyn has been run,
many OF the racing people who Went north
may be expected back.
MADE A HOT FAVoRITE
In the opening event Frederieks was
made a hot fayorite, being played from
to l down to L to 2. Pickaway was
the one most faueied of the others aud
went 10 the post at 5 to l.
To good start, Reynard, a 10 To shot,
jumped into the lead, aud making all the
running, looked n winner ten yards from
the wire. He was uriug rapidly. how
ever, and Frederieks came up with a ruso
and spatched the race by nose.
The secoud race, which was for twO
yearolds, looked to be simply a gallop fOI
Charma, aud she was made u 2 TO 3
fayorite. She got the best or the start and
was never caught. Loshade ran a good
race aud finished second
Murphy had the mount on Tonnage in the
third race and she was touted as u good
thing. When the bookies posted 4 to ]
against her the talent made a rush to gel
on, and by post time she was first choice at
to 8.
PLAYED SECOND FIDDLE.
When it came TO racing, however, the
best she could do was second to Fidget The
latter got off badly, but moved up rapidly
on the back stretch and won haRdIiy by
three lengths
All kinds of money went in on Valkyrie
in the fourth race, and she went from tens
down to to /. Plenty closed TavoTIte
at 13 to 8.
Leporeno went out and made the run
ming TO the back stretch, where VaIkyFie
came through and appeared to be winning.
Doc Birch went fast, however, and got
the verdict by nose.
For some reason Pirate Chief was not
much fancied in the fifth race and
receded from s to to 3 to I. Don
nelly got off in front with him and was
never caught, winning at the end by ten
! lengths.
Halcyon was the favorite in the closing
| event, going to the post at TO 8. She
| could do no better than fourth, however
| being beaten out by WoIcott, White Cock
| ade, and Matte ChuD.
