TRACK RECORD EQUALLE0.
Terrell 8. too Much for the other
Horses in the Free for All. Ex-
cellent Day, Splendid Races,
and Good Attendance.

Yesterdays races were even better
than those of Thursday, which is say
ing good deal, as the first day s rae
ing was all that could be DESIRED
the features of the second day we're
the free for all and the 2,20 trot ana
pace. the track record being equalled
in the first heat of the free for all.
The third race was also good one
but'there being only three horses en-
tered there was not as much interest
taken in it as the others.
The free or-all was got off at 200
after the horses had scored five times
and throughout the three heats 1t
was interesting from start to finish.
"Tcrrell S" proved to be too much
for the other four horses and showed
himself up as a splendid race horse.
The great controversy which has
been going on for SO long ia reference
to e. +. Knott and Goliath was de-
cIded yesterday for all time as the
former showed his heels in good style
to Goliath. In this race although
Mr.. Lasell's horse had things all his
own way he had to hump himself to
keep in the lead as Knott kept in
touching distance all through and in
fact in the second heat passed HIM at
the quarter. Not only this but the
interest centered in the other horses
for second money as there were some
close finishes.
The 2.2O race brought out four hor-
ses but the first money laid between
Tommy L. and Florence H., they
having rafting race all through,
but the former won handily as after
the second heat the Mortified horse
could not keep her feet. In fact if it
had not been for a wonderful squirt Of
speed in the second heat she would
have been distanced.
In the . 20 class Werewolf pivoted
too much for Ethan Wilkes, who was
too tired to do his best and could not
push the former any, whereas Ger
trude S. acted the same as usual and
went in the air just as she was ia IA
nice position.
All through the day the 1900 pee
pie present commented On the excel
lence of the racing and went home
perfectly satisfied with their out
ing.
Il. II. Wason the starter is to be
complimented on the work done by
him as he had some nasty horses to
deal with. The three Judges also
need some of the praise as they filled
their position in an excellent man
ner.
The summary of the races is as
follows:
First race, free-for-all trot and pace

The record for the track was 2.14l,
made by Goliath in 1899, and was
equalled yesterday by Terrell S., al
though it was thought by many, if
the latter horse was pushed he would
have taken couple of seconds off
this easily.
The pace was too much for Robert
u in the second heat Of the free for
all and he got distanced. In the = 20
class the distance was waived by CON
sent of the drivers, owners and man
agement so that North Star, allhouph
the flag was dropped on him, was
given fourth money.
