Columbus. O., September 0.-Russell Boy and volga were winning favorites at todays opening of the Columbus Grand Circuit races. Russell Boy did three miles around 2:03 in taking the King stake and Volga set a years record for two-year- old trotters with heats in 2:117s and 2:09st when she won her division of the Horse Review Purity.
 Nineteen starters in the 2:11 trot make the field the largest the Grand Circuit has known for nine years. Duchess, first choice, won the first heat and stepped away from everything but vaster in the next two. The gelding took them by scant heads, but the final one was not so closely contested.
 Bessie R. came out in the 2:14 pace. She took the first two heats, getting the earliest one in 205A without being extended. Camelia, the first choice, got a flying start in the third heat and man aged to ward off Dwight Logan, beside her all through the stretch. Bessie R, cut or at the start, finished fourth. The race had to go over and will be the first thing taken up tomorrow when the Hos ter Columbus $10,0o0 trotting stake and the Review three-yea futurity trot, worth $So00. are to be decided.
