Want an Earlier Start
The Jockey Club officials are entitled to
the greatest credit for their efforts in max
OF a large attendance every day. The one
objection offered yesterday was to the de-
lay in starting the races. It is argued that
500 p. m. is too late an hour TO call the
first event, and that 2:30 p. m. would not
only please everybody, but would allow
time to get back to the city before dark.
Starter Mars Cassidy has a new net,
which worked smoothly yesterday, and bids
tions going and returning sre splendid, and
the Columbia Railroad management is &C
tually giving rapid transit and plenty OF
cars.

there will be five events each day. The
track officials are as follows: Judge, Clar-
ence Mcdowell; handicaper. ". S. Vos-
burgh; starter, Mars Cassidy; paddock and

retto; clerk Of the course and scales, H. G.
Crlckmore. The stewards for the meeting
are S S Rowland. Samuel Ross. Jesse
Brown; secretary, F. o. Hanlon.
