BRILLIANT GATHERING
At BENNING TRACK
Opening Day Points to a
Successful Fall Meeting.
CROWD IN GOOD SPIRITS
Events An of a High Class-Runnels
Withdrawn From Columbia
Handicap.

Washington, that is, horse-loving
Washington, turned out IN large num-
bers yesterday afternoon, and gave to
the opening of the fall meeting of the
Washington Jockey Club its unqualified
Endorsement. 1t was a brilliant begin
ming of what will no doubt prove TO be
a most successful meeting.
Grandstand and clubhouse We're COM
fortably flied before the hour set for
the races to besin, and when the Co
lumbia Handicap was run, it had been
augmented percepubly. Il was a jovial
good-natured. enthusiastic crowd, and it
came away from the race course in ex-
ceeding good spirits
The track was in splendid condition,
and the races provided sport of high
class. Naturally. the interest centered
In the Columbia Handicap, which was
the fourth race on the card. II proved
good betting event. for all Of the
horses appeared TO have a chance and
there mas not one that went to the
post unbacked.

of this action was shown when High
Chancellor came through his field in the
final furlong, and catching the firing
Castalian won the Columbia handicap
easily. in the fast time of 1.2S It was
said that Mr.. Drake won many thou
sands on his horse.
This race gave the spectators the first
opportunity to see a race run over the
new Columbia course. and 1t resulted In
a satisfactory contest all around. The
horses had plenty of room on the back
stretch 10 move into good positions, and
there was TO crowding or Interference
There was but one opinion regarding the
new course. and that was that the local
Jockey club has the finest stretch Of race
track in the East. 1t was easily per
ceptible that the change in the going
from the new course to the old had its
effect on the runners, for many OF the
horses that held prominent places to the
turn backed up quickly when they
struck tas deep sand in the homestretch
The Bladensburg SteeDlechase Handi-
cap resulted in a splendid race from be-
ginning 10 end although the contest
was robbed Of much of its interest by
the withdrawal of Mr. Colts horse La
vator. Then. too. the favorite, Con-
over, fell az the first jump. and more IN
terest was taken from the race. I'M
