ANAcoNDA's GREAT FEAT.
PAGES Mile at Readville in goo Ia,
Defeating Searchlight.

Boston, Mass, Aug. 25.-The grand
circuit meet at Readville closed Friday
with the notable featrue of Anaconda,
a ge1ding owned by the East View
stock farm, at East View, N. Y, pacing
a mile in 2:0215, thereby winning the
1904 class and defeating by a very mar
row margin Frank Bogash and Search
light. The figure breaks the Readville
track record OF 2:045z. made in a race.
Anaconda was the favorite, but the
public heavily backed Frank Bogash
and Sarchlight, as their past perform
ances showed they were fast to an I'M
known degree.
The other great race was the 2:0S
trot, in which Arion, owned by J. NAL
colin Forbes, was brought out of re-
tirement after six years and sent up
against Charley Herr, the game win
ner of the Massachusetts stake last
year, and Grattan Boy, the great horse
from Macon, Ca. Arionywas speedy in
the first heat, but fell down badly in
the second and was then drawn, leaving
Grattan Boy and Charley Herr to fight
out a royal battle, in which the Lex
ingtOn horse won.
