carnival of racing at Brighton Beach beginning to-

The meeting win last only six days, but in that
time some OF the most important stakes that re-
main to the waning season will be renewed and,
in addition to these fixtures, John Boden, jr. sec
retary to the association has framed up series OF
overnight contests which, from their conditions
seem likely to bring about some excellent racing
before the scene shifts TO Gravescnd.
The famous Brighton Cup. at two and ne-quarter
miles; the Cup Preliminary, at one and one-half
miles; the two divisions OF the Produce Stakes the
first for colts and geldugs, the second for hlles
the Mercury Handicap, the Chantilly Steeplechase

ties for the members of each different branch of
the army of thoroughbreds to distinguish them

lodgings The stakebook shows that many OF the
most ilustrious of them have accepted.
IF the Century and the Annual Champion, decided
at Sheepshead Bay, may be taken auguries the
