The Ist, 2nd, sth and 7th races were won by the horses of Concordia Stables, on which success we have to congratulate our live sportsman Mr. H. Me Kay through whose efforts anc c... 0,, ..t to say liberal activity, this popular pastime of St. Croix has been revived and main- ‘ained. The 38rd race was won by Mr. E. Brown’s ‘‘Sparkle’” and the 6th by the famous O’Girl of Mr. S, Hodge one of the leading sportsmen of Frederiksted, who, however, was not attended with his customary suc- cesses yesterday. On the whole a wvery enjoyable day was afforded and while the pocketbooks of many were depleted by reckless betting, many also were replen- ished and everybody is looking forward to another such day of public entertain- ment. Music was furnished by the Fred- eriksted Century Brass Band. The theatre was crowded last night when the last six thundering reeis of ‘‘The Flaming Disk’’ were presented. There was screened a slide promising a com- plete drama featuring Marie Walcamp in 6 reels on Thursday night. Look out for programme.
