I'm Five Heats-CIose of Grand
Circuit Meeting.

READvILLE, Mass, Sept. S.-The Grand
Circuit meet closed to-day with two full
races, five heats in a race that came over
from yesterday and three heats in a race
that was declared finished on account of
darkness. With the exception Of the 2:15
trot, which Aloes won with ease, and the
race that was called, extra heats were
necessary to decide the winners, while it
took seven heats in the unfinished trot. This
latter race kept every one guessing for
nearly half the afternoon. Jasper Ayres,
after winning two heats yesterday in easy
style, slipped up on the first heat to-day.
the third heat in the race, and Cut Glass
came in a winner. In the next one Ayres
went further behind and Georgiana led the
field under the wire. Much Ado took the
fifth heat, and, after winning the next one,
was looked on as the probable winner of
the race, but in the deciding heat he acted
badly and Jasper Ayres although breaking
almost at the finish, recovered himself and
took the necessary third heat and the race.
Courier Journal vas the favorite in the 2:OS
pace, but Giles Noyes proved too fast for
the black stallion. although losing the Sec
ond and third heats through breaks. Courier
Journal almost nailed Noyes at the wire in
the fourth heat and lost the fifth heat and
won in straight heats by Aloes, Serpol alone
coming anywhere near the son of Allerton.
Indiara took two heats in the 2;11 pace in
easy style, but made a bad break in the
third The gathering darkness put an end
to the sport and the judges took advantage
Of the rule and declared the race finished.
