Garden City Stakes Won by Rose Tree

CHICAGO, Aug. Arose Tree, E. Corri-
gan's imported mare, at odds of II TO i,
won the Garden City stakes at Harlem to-
day in ZIP 3-5, the fastest race of the sea-
son at six furlongs over the local tracks.
Burnie Bunton was second, with Wanna
moinen third. Fifteen of the fastest sprint
ers in the West started in the race OF
these Jiminez, Constellator and A. D. Glib
son were added starters. Otis, Scorpio and
Flora Pomona were scratched. Toah was
always the favorite. He ran a good race,
after being outfooted the first half, and was
beaten only by head for third money,
although seven lengths separated him from
the winner. Burnie Bunton was second
choice, while Rose Tree was practically
overlooked in the betting, she drifted
from to l to Il to l at post time. The
stake was worth s., $40 to the winner. Dick
Welles retrieved himself in the second race
for the poor showing he made in the Test
stakes last week, by turning the five fur
longs in 100 fiat, eased up. Three favorites
and two second choices divided the other
five events Winners in order: L Etrenne,
q to 10; Dick Welles, 8 to 20; Rose Tree,
u to l; Walter Cleary. to 5; Bon Mot,
6 to L; Scarlet Lily, to l.; Ravensburg,

THE LATTER THE 2:12 TROT.
Rhythmic, the Blind Wonder, Still
Unbeaten-Cut His Record to
200 "a in the 2:3O TrOt.

BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug 4-The fourth
week of the Grand Circuit opened at the
Fort Erie track to-day with clear skies
and fast track. Three races were de-
cided, each in straight heats.
In the 2:3O trot Rhythmic the blind trot-
ter, was favorite, $50 against the field, $40
and when it came to racing it was all
Rhythmic. Both Directum Spier and John
ny tried to beat the favorite, but did not
have the speed. In winning Rhythmic re-
duced his record from 2:111k TO 2:O9s4.
Dan R. won the 2:OS pace just as cleverly.
There was nothing in the race that could
extend the sorrel PAGER. Dan r. sold at $50
against the field $40 and was always in
front. Geers could not do much with Fred
S. Wedgewood, and New Richmond showed
the best of those behind Dan r. The lat
ters record was cut a second to 2:o4%.
The PIP trot brought out a big field of
eleven horses, and there was tedious delays.
Dan L. had the pole and also the speed
winning in three straight heats, hard
pressed by Border Dan T. sold in the field
the first pooling being Hawthorne $50, Leola
$50, Lady Thisbe $26, the field $l2
