Before the close of the present week a new
and vastly important page in turf history
win have been written page that will
mark the advent into the race track family

most gorgeous, the most perfectly appoint

Further description of Belmont Park than
has been written is entirely unnecessary at
this time. For two years past innumerable
columns have been written of the parks
grandeur, of it's spacious stands, with a
seating capacity of nearly 10000; of its five
different courses for racing. of it's magnifi-
cent club houses, its vast inclosure train
ing quarters and jockeys quarters. Enough
to say that, despite all reports to the con-
trary Belmont Park has reached a state of
as perfect completion as d new race course
~can possibly be in and the most minute
details for caring for the greatest throng
that ever turned out to race track have
been arranged.
For the opening days racing there has
been prepared a program that will have
as its principal feature the running of the
Metropolitan handicap at mile, in which
are engaged the very cream of American
thoroughbreds. Among them are Stalwart
and Hermis, the pride of the +. r. Thomas

that the former lost patience and went
ahead with his game.
