In THE EVENING.

The best audience of the season was
present Saturday night The boxes in
front with all seats filled and the seats
behind in the same condition, gave
things a very gay appearance. Blue
jackets from the three American men
of-war in port occupied the front rows.
The lighting OF the park was excellent
and the events of the evening were run
off in good style.
FIRST RACE.
Mile novice for Navy boys. There
were five starters, the three men-of-
war being represented. Rutherford of
the Yorktown took first place with
Barnhardt of the Wheeling, second.
There were TO have been three heats
but not enough men turned up. Ru-
therford was an easy winner.
SECOND RACE.
First heat-One-third of mile pro-
fessional, (open). Entries: Geo.
Martin; A. Jones and D. E. Whitman
Won by Jones; Whitman, second.
Time, so 2-5 seconds
Second heat-Entries: G. Sharrick

Sharrick at the finish.

cap) Entries: Fred Damon, scratch;

ond. Time, 2.3S Is.
Second heat-Entries: King and
Giles, scratch; Porter, so yards; Jack
son, 125 yards. Won by Jackson;
King, second. Time, 2:33.
There was too much of handicap
given Jackson and he kept in the lead
the whole way. King made a good at
tempt to catch him but couldn't make
it.
Damon and Ludloff Won by Damon;
King, second. Time, 2:47.
FOURTH RACE.
Two mile handicap, professionally.
Entries: Jones and Sharrick, scratch;
Sylvia, Is yards; Whitman, 100 yards;

man; Sylvester, second. Time, 4:05.
Sylvia stood good chance of winning
the race, but an unfortunate accident
took place. He was on the last turn
of the fifth lap when Whitman cried
out to slacken the pace, as he and
Jones, Sharrick could not catch up.
Sylvia turned his head losing his bear
ings, went into the water.
FOR A RECORD.

ing START. paced by Damon and Por-

amusement of all.

At 10 O'Clock Thursday night an alarm
Of fire was sounded, flames being dis
covered in q house occupied by F. G.
Huxley, north Of A. G. Jastatt's residence
In the north part of the city. The hre
originated from heated stove pipe run
ming through closet, which ignited the
frame work. Damage was dose to house
and household goods BY the, fire and
water.
Friday noon another house took fire
from defective hue. The house Is loca-
ted Just north Of the Episcopal church,
and belongs to W. w. MunseA of Chi
cago. 1t was occupied by &. D. Cutting.
a railroad man. Mrs. Cutting, who q
few days previously had given birth to
child, was carried to neighbours house.
The contents of the house was saved.
The building was nearly consumed. The
fire company did good work. The
wind was blowing at the time, and a
severe confagration was averted by the
fire company's promptness. The stone
church building probably prevented
spread of the flames. The water pres
sure was good, and the men poured on
two heavy streams. A frozen hydrant
prevented the use Of the third hose.
There was no insurance on either house
or contents.
