SURPRISES AT NARRAeANsETT.
Bad Day For Favorites at Grand Cir-
 cult Opening.

Bad Day For Favorites at Grand Cir-
 cult opening.
 PROVIDENCE, R. l., Aug. 27.-The opening days races at Narragansett park were full of surprises. and, while nothing startling developed, things went decidedly wrong for the favor ites, not one landing first money and in but two events winning a heat. On account of the action of the authorities no attempt was made at pool selling. The track was in fine condition, and very fast time was made in all the events.
 In the first race, 2:15 pace, Alice Pointer made 2:05az, but she was out of the running in the next two heats. which were taken by Williams brown gelding Hidalgo There were six start CTS in this event, the chief event of the day, with David Shaw's bay mare Alice Pointer the first choice. She drew the pole and won the first heat in fast time by neck, but the next two heats went to Hidalgo in slower time, Alice Pointer finishing second and third respectively in each heat. The black mare Reproachless, of whom much was expected, broke twice and finished far in the rear. The next event, the 2:20 trot for three-year-olds, was easy money for the gray colt Douglas, driven by Mcdonald, who easily outclassed the field and won in straight heats.
 The third event. 2:1O pacing, was taken by Leland Onward, the third choice. Thornway, the favorite, cap tured the first heat by head, but could only get third and fourth places in the other two heats. William O., driven by Ed Geers, came in third, barely nosing out the others.
 The last event. the 2:25 trot, went tc Tokyo, driven by Dickinson.
