SPEED RING.
Yesterdays races, both in number and
interest, exceeded the opening day. A
much larger crowd was present. the
weather was ideal, the band played
well, and the track continues to grow
faster as it is used
In addition to the racing the manage
ment introduced Professor Aava Wilson
OF the West Side, who gave a very fine
exhibition of fancy and Gong distance
shooting. A still more interesting nov
city was the celebrated PAGER, Alba
tross, in an exhibition quarter, without
Sulky, driver, rider or mate. On being
turned loose he struck a fast pace, came
down the stretch as steadily as clock
work, never swerving or breaking, and
made the quarter in 30ls A similar ex-
hibition with a longer distance will be
made each day.
Many people who read the announce
ment that the racing would begin at 1.3O
sharp, evidently did not believe 1T. and
as a consequence missed several OF the
first heats. This year, at least, the rae
ing begins as advertised and in order to
see IT all one must be there at 1:30

When the finish heat of the POI trot

derson's horse would make them go II
they wanted the race. 1t was guess
ing around to the three-quarters pole
when Heir Medium and Padchen Wilkes
Maid began to move up on Manvil. 1ne
Maid was coming up well 10 the nag,
but Manvil was too game. Maid broke
and fell back to third place by a neck
from Heir Medium. This gave the heat
and race to Manvil. Time 2:1S.
In the second heat of the 2:28 trot
there was no competition for st. King.
Lapham sat back on him an the way
around, but there was pretty battle
for second place between Star Medium
and Bud Hopeful. They finished as
named with Lady Westbrook trailing.
This was a walking heat in 2:26.
The race of the day was the two-year-
old pace with two entries. Among the
''turfiites" and in the pool rooms plenty
Of money was placed on Red Seal and to
all appearances he was the winner The
Searcher soon changed their minds, for
when ne came in two lengths ahead in
2:19H moving easily, and not a hair
