Beechwoo d, Daughter of 81 kwcod,
Is First in the Pacing
Event.

WILLOWS, CAL, Aug. 14.-There was
the usual large attendance at the track to-
day, but although the male population was
well represented in the ring, the betting
was lighter than on the previous days of
the week. This can be accounted for by
the fact that the various rondo and dice
games absorbed the attention OF much of
the crowd until the running event was
called.
The caliber OF the sport was quite up to
the standard of excellence that has
marked the meeting from the outset. Ad-
Olson, the steady going son of James Mad
ison, captured the 2:24 trot in straight
heats, and Beechwood, brown mare, one
of the first of the get of the great Silk
wood to race, placed the 2:40 pace to her
credit after dropping the first heat to Ed
Lafferty. Zamloch, q sprinter raised in
this county, scampered away with the
running dash, selling from So to $5 IN
pools of $25 and tonight the local sports
have money to burn. The hotels are rap
idly being filled to overfowing, and to-
morrow, the closing day, pro misses to be a
big affair.
Dan McCarty of white hat fame, the
travelling mpanion of Lord Talbot Cliff
ton and the hero of half hundred es-
capades, arrived on the noon train, and
during the day gave the ladies an exhlbi-
ton OF his skill as a reinsman, plotting
Bonnie Bell for two heats. The local band
enlivened the DAYS racing by rendering
some popular airs and tomorrow the
leader promises card arranged especially
for the occasion.
The Jud Wilkes stallion, Harry Win
chester, was big favorite for the 2 IA trot
bringing $40 against $6 for the entire field,
consisting of Duke, Auditor, Addison and
Grandissimo. Addison took. the first heat
in 2:19L, with Auditor finishing second
and Harry Winchester third. In the fol-
lowing two heats he took his revenge on the
latter horse, which had lowered his colors
a, Petaluma, leading Harry to the wire in
both heats in 2:18A. 2:18H.
There was no betting on the pacing
event previous to the first heat This was
taken by Ed Lafferty in drive from
Beechwood by a half length in 2:24lI.
Moth withstanding this unexpected turn.
Bonnie Belle now sold pronounced
choice at $40 with the field bringing but
81 Beechwood shook off Ed Lafferty
after passing the hall i'll the next heat
and won easily in 2:2l17. The crowd still
stuck to Bonnie Bell, but Beechwood was
first past the judges in the next two heats
ard took the purse. Bonnie Bell, driven
by Dan McCarty in the last two heats.
was second on both occasions.
Pools on the five and a half furlongs
dash showed the field selling fayorite at
SIS, Gladiola going for $40 and Zamloch SO.
The latter horse, excellently ridden by
Ames, was first away, and in hard drive
won by scant length from Rose Clark in
the very fast time OF l :08. Gladiola was
close third. Mntuals paid 81 so.
