Something like 500 people wit
messed the races at Surry Park last
Sunday, among the number being
from Opelousas, New Iberia, st.
Martiuville, Broussard aud other
nearby towns. Several good trot
ting races took place on that day

those in charge.
The first race, the one in which
the most interest was manifested
was the trottiug match between

by Ed. Bulliard, of st. Martinville,
and "Shake," owned aud entered
by Paul Breaux of Broussard, for
a purse of 800 90, one mile heat,

was easily won by "the Admiral"
and the mile covered in 2:29. The
second heat was, still an easier
victory for the St. Martinville
horse and this time the distance
was covered in 2 :27.
When the first start was made
in the second heat the two sulkies
collided and the one attached to the
Broussard horse was smashed
and the driver, MIR. Wallior, of
Opelousas was thrown violently to
the ground but fortunately escaped
with but slight injuries.
The st. Martinville horse elected
much admiration aud was the OBJ.
