W. Hodges, of Benson, N. C, and driven by Moore. This made the ninth straight victory in as many starts for this good pacer. The Judge, owned and driven by W. H. Cane, of Hacken sack, N. J., finished second in both heats of this event, and Frank Thomas drove Dr. Starter into third place. An extra heat was necessary to decide the winner in the Country Club Trot after Baby Ruth, owned by John McKinnon, of Laurin burg, N. C, and driven by Hawkins, and Let Fly, owned and driven by Cane, each won one of the first two heats. Let Fly won the deciding heat and the race. The running track was muddy from the showers during the night and the mud larks had their inning. Uncle Sand, entered by N. S. Hurd and ridden by Snyder, outdistanced his field in the five and half furlong race, and St. Jude, the recent acquisition of Miss Helen Waring, displayed a sparkling performance in winning the seven furlong event in 1 :31 over the muddy track. Kate Glenn, entered by the Red Gables Stable, and ridden by Norman Smith, scored her sixth victory of the present season in the steeplechase event, defeating Misfit and Ray-O-Light. The latter made a bad landing at the eighth jump and lost his rider. The summary: Sand Hill Pace Love Berry (Moore) ; 1 1 The Judge (Cane) 2 2 Dr. Starter (F.
