safety
II have been in the business good
many years, and | am hrmiy convinced
that 40 miles an hour is about as fast
as a train ought to 90. When ysu have
to run at so, go, or 10 miles an hsur, the
engineer is simply taking chances. The

more than q thousand green. red and

never have anything like safety in rail-

Watervilc, Me-, Aug. 11.-(SpcciaD.-|
1t was a disappointed crowd of people
which left the park, Thursday after
noon, just after the heavy shower had
postponemcnt of all races until Friday
afternoon. The heavy rain of last night
had left the track in pretty bad con-
diticn, but when the sun after long
struggle finally managed to get his face
through the clouds he proved a mighty
aid to the management who had been
doing its best all the morning to make
it possible to carry out the days pro-
gram.
The crowd began to come early and
proved much larger than that of
Wednesday, the great frec-for-all race
with some of the best horses in the
drawing card.
1t Was not until 3 o'clock that the
judges deemed the track in fit condi-
| ton to race upon and even at that hour
it WAS so heavy that any sort of fast
time WAS impossible.
The first race called was the Swear
! old, and only two colts came out, Bob
Nelson and Monthair. They were sent
away ON the second score with Bob Mel
son slightly in the lead which position
he held for the entire mile, winning i'll
a walk, in the slow time of 2.i6.
The next race was the go pace with
three starters, Claudia Hal. Altissnus
and Tonic ID. This heat was won by
Tonic D.. with Claudia Hal close up.
| BY this time the clouds which had
been gathering since l o'clock began
to send down their rain and the track
, was soon so slippery as to render fur
