Novel Feature In Harness RACINE DelightD
Maine Horsemeu.
PTrTsFIELD, Me-, Aug. IA new era in har-
ness racing was opened here to-day by q race
driven by women, who used bicycle sulkies, car
ried weight. and In every way strictly conformed
with the National Trotting Association rules.
The idea was one conceived by Col. W. G. Nor
rill, owner and manager of the Union Driving
Park, and the race was 30 very successful that
1t will be q feature Of all the leading meetings in
the State this season. The card included twelve
entries, and all were on the track and ready to
start, but it was decided not to let more than
four horses start on this occasion, as the race
WAS an experiment and there would be more
a small one. The women were all neatly attired
in bicycle costumes, and made o fne appearance.
1t was about 4 O'Clock when A +. Merrill. tho
starter, announced that the women's race would
be the next event on the card. The four drivers
came down the stretch and were introduced.
Each was received with round after round of
applause. The drivers were then called tn the
judges stand to draw positions and receive in
structions. They came down once and were
called back. Then they came down neck and
mock and got the word. Summary:
