BIG CROWDS.
There were many excursionists who
passed through here on the various lines
OF electrics yesterday. Not only were
the lines 10 the various shore resorts
We'll patronized, but those running to diff
ferent points in Massachusetts, and to the
Pawtucket line were also well patronized
The crowds bound for the down the
river resorts, started in early and by the
time they usually commence TO come the
cars were all crowded. with passengers
standing on the running boards and
| cinging 10 everything which would af-
ford an opportunity TO hang on.
There were several excursion cars from
| various points in Connecticut which
passed over the Warren avenue line en-
| route for Crescent park.
The Brighton Beach meeting is sure TO
eclipse those that have preceded 1t in the
Fbig circuit The horses Will be better
classified than in the earlier races and
| the winners will have 70 step as they
never had 10 do before TO win. The as
ISOLATION has spared no expense and Sec
| retary McCuly has secured everything
| that there is in sight in the way OF
| special attractions
The entry list for the Readvtle grand
| circuit meeting is not only the largest
| ever received by a grand circuit track.
| but is superior in quality to any that has
| ever been made to a harness meeting ALL
everything points to the best meeting Of
| the year at the Breeders track next
| week
The star event OF the week will be the
| $500 Massachusetts stake In which l3
| trotters. the"pick OF the country. will
| comretc The Massachusetts, has always
been the hardest fought and best contest
| ed OF the big fixed events. and this year s
| race promises TO be no exception to the
| rule. The fastest OF those entered. by
the records. is Billy Buck (2:o7h), Ed
| Geers' unbeaten gelding but there Is not
| one among the l3 trotters that are eligible
| To start that has not shown his ability 10
| beat 2:10. and IL Geers trotter wins the
big purse he will surely have TO take a
/, record that will put him among the first
! flight OF trotters.
