Races and Balloon Ascension Postponed.

THERE was a good attendance at the | tle

Exhibition to-day, mnotwiths:anding

fact that the rain poured down in torrents |

The horse races and balloon ascension had to be postponed until to-morrow. STANDARD BRED HORSES.

Despite the rainy weather the judges «f standard bred and carriage hoises began their work this forenoon. The class of stallions, four years old and upwards, was tirst called. In this class only three were shown, the first prize falling to Hernando, the second to Belvedire, the third to Prin- cipal. Mr. George E. Hughes exhib'ted his tine two-year-old standard bred stal)jion Hernando and captured) a prize. The classes of yearlings and two year-old fillies, and the class of mare and foals were particularly guvod. The two-year-old Precepter filly owned by Richard Bagnall of New Glasgow, is a great beauty. She tovk first prize. The fillies of Allan McPhee and H.S. McLeod, the former by Preceptor, the latter by Westiawn, are fine ones, Mr. William McGrath's yearling and two-year-old fillies, both by Preceptor, were greatly admired. Mr, George J. Wright also showed a beau- tiful foal by Preceptor. A large and ex- cellent exhibit of horses was made by Ben-

jamin Heartz, who had sixteen horses entered, Several of his foals, and yearling

and two-year-old fillies (stamdard) by Pre ceptor are very fine and were greatly ad- mired by the spectators. Dr. Beer exhib- ited a splendid three-year-old filly by Hernando. Several owners of horses, ig- cluding the manager of the trotting mare Dot, by Administrator, declined to exhibit one account of the heavy rain storm. The judgment in other classes of carriage horsés was postponed until the weather clears up, and the races were postponed until one o’c’ock for the same cause.

WOKKS OF ART. There is a large collection of these. Some

of the. pictures were well nigh as bad.as they could be. A few were really well drawn. The _ coloring in nearly all was faulty. While it

was impossible to see anything very strik- ing or original, several of the landscapes exhibited proofs of talent on the part of the artiats, It is pleasing to know that so many persons in the community are culti- tivating the fine arts.

THE FLOWER SHOW.

The great beauty of the flower show was remarked upon by all visitors, especialiy by the ladies. This was promoted first by our fine open season, and secondly by Mr. Smallwood’s taste and care in arrange- ment. The exhibits proper were suppie- mented by contributions from Queen Square Gardens and from Mr. Small wood’s private collection. The rare and beautiful foliage plants shown by Mr. G. H. Lias- zard were greatly admired. Edward Bay- field, Esq., was an exhibitor of several of the most beautiful flowers; also Mr. Adam Fyte, of Summerside.

PHILHARMONIC CONCERT

The choruses sung by the Philharmonic Society last evening were heard by « tew appreciative listeners. The majority of the audience preferred, apparently, rather to talk about the exhibits and the balloon ascension than to hear the rendering of the finest music, It was, certainly, no fault of the musicians that the choruses were not of sufticient volume to command attention throughout the vast area of the exhibition building.

The balloon ascension took place about four o'clock yesterday instead of at noon, as was at first intended. The aseent was very rapid. When the balloon was about two miles above the earth, and over the land on the south side of the Hillsborough, Mr. Spencer, the zeronaut, pulled the cord which connected the balloon and parachute and let himself drop. He fell about three hundred feet before the parachute opened. The descent thus far was very rapid. After the parachute opened, however, the velocity,was not so great. The parachute descended gradually, swaying to and fro with its living freight until it dropped in the Hillsborough near Kelly’s Cove, some distance from the shore. The balloon landed some two miles further on,

in a sovth-easterly direction. The water was almost up to the top of the wronaut’s head where he landed,

and he had to hold the aneroid baro- meter, which he »lways takes with him on his aerial voyages,above the water tokeep it

from being spoiled. After reaching the shore, and a ranging with a farmer to go after the balloon, Mr.

Spencer rowed back to his wet clothes for dry ones at the Hotel and was abort as usual Jact evening. The arccnsion was witnessed

The man with the phonograph is doing fairly good business. The selections are very fine. ‘The story of the New York Irishman is particularly amnsing. Ten cents a trial.

There was a big attendance yesterday afternoon. The horse races are always @ drawing card. The rain, however, iwi'er- fered with the races arranyed for to-day.

The Artillery Band is in sttendance each

afternoon and evening, furnishing good music. Mr. Hawley and Mr. Knight also favor the audience with selections on the piano and civriouet. . David P.

THE RACES,

The races yesterday were, altogether, the best and most. hotly-contested ever seen in this Province. In every heat every horse was driven to win, if possible. Everyoue was pleased and detighted. Minnie Gray, a splendid mare, by Harry.. Morgan— reared by Mr. Isaac Thompson, of this Province, but now owned by Mr. W. Gam- mon, of River John—entered the charmed circle in the’ free-for-all, while both Lady Pilot and Lucy Derrick showed thesplendid racing qualities to be brought out by train- ing. Harry All Right in the three-minute class, and Brazil in the two-year-old futurity race, trotted beautifully. The are both colts of the greatest promise. Loot S, too, and Parnell, are grand trotters. The con- clusion of our report of yesterday is as fol- lows :

FREE-FOR-ALL.

Second Heat—This heat too was a hot one. Minnie Gray trotted steadily and beautifully, and maintained the lead, closely pressed by Lady Pilot and Lucy Derrick. The first named entered the 2 39 list, and Lady Pilot (who had a bad start) was not a half second behind, while Lucy Derrick was close up. Time 2 30.

Third Heat—In the first part of this heat Minnie Gray and Lucy. Derrick, had a sharp struggle fur firet place, but the latter broke up badly near the three quarter pole and fell tothe rear. La’y Pilot was again a good second, Time 2 30.

Summary.
