WHAT promises to BIZ the greatest
w season in the history of the light
harness horse racing was in
s%ugurated over the various half-mile
tracks in the metropolitan districts
yesterday.
The number of starters in all the
classes was large, the racing first-class
in every particular and the reported
attendance at each meeting was far
beyond expectations. Ideal weather
conditions prevailed, and while the time
made in some of the events was par
ticularly fast at this season of the
year. 1t is hardly probable that any
of the horses were driven fast enough
to hurt them in the opinion of their
trainers. This, in most insta--ces, indi-
Gates some very fast work before the
close of the season.

black pacing stallion Edward T. won
the event, stepping the second heat in
2:15A. a remarkable mile under the ad-
verse weather conditions which have
prevailed his spring. The local entry,

the United States can have per-
