 Special Trains to Convey Passengers
 Direct to Park
 From time immemorial good horse races have been popular with all class es of people. Interest in the splendid sport has never waned, and, when giv- en under auspices which inspire confi- dence in their integrity, horse races still hold the foremost and most honor ed place in the category of contests in skill and endurance.
 Commencing this evening, July 3, and to be continued tomorrow afternoon and tomorrow evening, July 4, under conditions of Aladdin-like wonderment, the lovers of horse, racing of New Ha- ven and adjacent towns will have an opportunity of witnessing at Hippo drome park, Branford, formerly Bran ford Driving psrk, the very finest, cleanest and most meritorious exhibi- tions of their favorite pastime.
 Louis A. Fisk, the managing owner of Hippodrome park, has spared no expense, time, skill or energy in mak- ing these impending events of a charac- ter so exceptional in their entertain ment as to impress them forever in the memory of those who will be fortunate enough to see them. At a tremendous cost Mir. Fisk has converted the park Of fifty-tlve acres into veritable fairy land of light. It will be illuminated by electricity and made so clear to the vision that every portion of the races, every horse and every driver, as well as every act of the fine vaudeville bill, can be seen as clearly and distinctly and enjoyed with far more relish than if they, took place in broad daylight. The list of entries appended and the reputation of Mir. Fisk for a square Ideal afford sufficient guarantee for com tests Of a high character. The vaude-, ville bill will include the following:
 Daredevil Castellane, whose hair- raising act in Ieaping the gap, looping the loop and jumping the chasm on his bicycle has excited the wonder and ad- niiration of all who have seen it. j. Luelitta, the appropriately named ''queen of the high wire" will perform marvellous feats at a dizzy altitude, such as suspensions, head-stands. and walking in baskets. r.s.s..s. Roman stand and chariot . races, faithful reproductions of those historic equine performances which made Rome famous in ages gone by. ,sA..
 The Baker family-five-whose feats on. the cycle have brought them we'll earned renown.
 All these and other features will be produced this evening and, tomorrow evening under electric illumination, and during the evening of tomorrow, July 4. !
 Concert music will be discoursed dur ing the meetings l.sa ,t4$
