GRAND CIRCUIT RACES
A Meager Attendance on the
First Day at Cleveland.
ONLY TWO ARE FINISHED
Chanty Wins the 2:14 Trot and Maxi
MILAN the 2:16 Pace-The Street
Railroad Strike Has a Disas-
trous Effect on the Crowd.

Cleveland, July 24.--The grand circuit
races began to-day under favorable
weather and track conditions, but the
attendance was somewhat .disappoint-
ing. owing. in the main, to the street
railroad strike Only two of the four
races were finished, one being post
poned entirely and the other going over
unfinished. The race of most interest
was the 2:14 trot. Altoka was a hot
favorite before the race began, but he
only got one heat, and, after hot fin
ishes between Charley Herr, Donna
leila and Altoka, Chanty finally landed
the race. Maximillian, the favorite,
would have won the PIG pace with ease
in the first three heats but for an acct
dent to his sulky in the first heat. The
heat was finished on one wheel and Nc
Carthy was thrown at the wire, but no
other damage was done. 1t took the
favorite until the fourth heat to recover
himself, and then he went out, winning
as he pleased.
The 1927 pace was the most disap-
pointing of all for the talent. Harry
O. was picked as a sure winner and
was played vigorously at any price.
Sphynx S. was too speedy, however,
and he won the two meats, nnlSnlng
after exciting contests with Harry o.
in the first and Grin B. in the second.
The 2:19 trot went over until to-mor-
row. Results:
2:14 class, trotting, purse $4,000
Chanty won fourth, sixth and eighth

SANITARY WORK IN THE SOUTH.

The movement inaugurated here
for cleaning, sewering and draining
the city has not only benefited New
Orleans, but promises to be OF great
advantage to the entire south.
No municipal improvement sug-
gested in the last half dozen years
has been discussed, and more widely
advertised; and it Is natural that the
determination OF New Orleans, the
largest city in the south, to improve
It's sewerage and drainage, which pre-
sents so many serious and diricult
engineering problems, should have a
stimulating effect on other towns,
Perhaps. too, the quarantine
troubles OF the late two years NAV
have had some stimulating influence
on sanitary work.
We have already noted the SAM.

number of southern cities, aud each
day chronicles new ones- showing the
determination of the people to nut
their towns in order. Houston, Tex,
