ness Races at Columbus, Ohio.
COLUMBUS, ONO, Aug. 5.-The unusu-
ally hot weather resulted in generally fast
time being made at the Columbus Driving
Park races to-day, but no records were
broken. The weather was excellent and
the track fast. The average time OF the
days races is probably the best ever made
in one day since harness racing began as
a sport. The attendance was very large.
In the first heat of the 2:25 pace SILK
Woodruff fell and was run over by Red
Oak, who was just behind. Neither of the
horses nor their drivers was badly hurt.
Silk Woodruff was distanced, but the other
was allowed to remain in the race The
defeat of Clayworth in the 2:09 trot was
surprise, the horse being universal Ia
vorite and winning but one heat.
Tomorrow is the pig day OF the season,
Joe Patchen, Rubenstein and Robert j
going in the free -fof-all pace. The horses
are on the grounds and in good condition.
