JUST been broken for the magnificent
new race track of the Westchester Rae

is to he called, in Nassau county. Just
over the line from Queens, on the ia

many kinds will be employed in the
building of what doubtless will be the
most magnificent establishment dcvot-

any other country
Tho plans involve an expenditure OF
about S+500,000 between now and the
opening Of the season In 1865. al which
time August Belmont and his friends
hope to enjoy racing under conditions
that will be as nearly ideal from Il
physical point Of view as money will
provide.
There will;bo six distinct tracks, and
the park will cover 6GG acres. This
area is larger than Prospect park and
pretty nearly as large as Central park.

Infants Robe 4587.

The day when infants were dressed
in robes made mass of elaborate
lace and embroidery belongs to the
past. Fine materials, dainty hand
work and simple trimming now are
held correct and are both more fash
ionable and more sensible. This very
pretty little model is made of Persian
lawn with the frill and bands of fine
embroidery and is charmingly attrac-
tive, but it can be reproduced in any
one of the fabrics used for the pur-
pose.
The robe is eminently simple and
consists of a square yoke. to which
the full skirt portion is attached. Over
the shoulders are wide frills that give
breadth and dignity to the baby fig
ure, and the neck is finished with a
yellow frill' of lace. The sleeves are
full, gathered into narrow wristbands,
edged to match the neck.

The waist proper is laid in one box

and any of the materials used for the
undergarments of real folk are suit

The set consists of two petticoats,
corset cover, chemise and drawers,
each of which is cut and shaped with
care. The chemise is the fashionable
one in sacque shape. The drawers are
