colt Box, in the betting. The horse is
sulker, and never goes TO the post
without causing long delay. To-day
he seemed to have the last race on the
card at his mercy, but he showed his
usual disposition to sulk, and the best
he could do was to get third money.
Four favorites and one second choice
were the winners. Weather fine; track
fast.

TROTTINC AND PACING.
HARTFORD, CONN, August Sl.--Every
race at Charter Oak Park to-day was
battle, although two OF them were won In
straight heats. Even in those races, how
ever the finishes were close, and the
leaders had trouble shaking the other
horses off their heels. Alcidaiia furnished
the surprise OF the day by winning the
PIP trot in straight heats with such
horses as Grace Hastings, FRED. kohle,
Queechy. and Fred. IL. in the field. Grace
was picked out to win, but she was not
I'm the best of moods. In the third heat,
however, after starting far behind the
others. she closed up the gap and gave the
winner a hot chase to the wire.
In the trot for 3-year-oids there was an
impression that American Belle, the win
ner had few links Of speed which she
was not compelled TO show. Thorne and
Timbrel set the pace for her. and gave
her three lively brushes coming home.
