THE TROTTING.
The races both days were fairly in
teresting. Those Of Wednesday were the
closest, but the best time was made
Thursday. An experiment was tried in
the free-for-all, the winner of each sue
cessive heat dropping out and the
money going according tc the heat won.
The purpose was to develop speed and
honest work. The speed came in the
leading horse, but the others held back
and the effect was tame. Common Voter
took the free-for-all in 2:19. II he had
beaten the track record, 2:18, he would
have won q special prize Of $50. There
was really more fun and interest in the
quarter-mile heats between the three
lads on Shetland ponies than in the
trotting. They surprised everybody with
their speed, but showed a comical ten
dency to veer on to the barn when
they reached that point on the track.
The starter was c. D. Smith OF Troy,
N. Y; judges, L. w. Morris of Brad
ford, J. E. Hoban OF Barre and F. w.
Dunsmoor of Manchester, N. 81.
