' By RUSSELL PHELPS.
Troverbial Old J. Pluvius reared up
oil his hind legs yesterday and was
successful in putting a crimp in the
opening day's program of the Omaha
Driving Club's Great Western circuit
harness race's at the Benson track.
The, program, however, positively
will be continued today, as the show
ers abated shortly after rain checks
were issued to the enthusiastic race
tans, ".' wlip flocked to the track. A
little sunshine this morning will put
the ' half-infle oval, admittedly the
fastest in the country, in excellent
condition. With decent weather the
remainder of the week, Benson plant
atiould witness the largest crowds and
the fastest races in' the history of har
ness events in the middle west.
Driving club officials decided to set
each afternoon's program ahead just
one day, bringing the windup and net
away clay on Saturday instead of Fri
day. The oemaining heats in yester
day's .unfinished events will be raced
today, as well as the free-for-all pac
ing. classic and the 3-year-old trot.
-Soldiers1 In Evidence.
In spitt of. the .lowering clouds,
thunder claps and flashes of lightning,
a big crowd of race fans, includ
ii)g a generous sprinkling of soldiers
and society folks, was on hand when
the program got under way.
The curtain-raising event, 2-year-old
trotting class, Biugcn Silk purse
of $500r brought out a field of throe
starters. 1 A bay fitly; by Main Sheet,
'entered by . the Hildrcth stables of
Omaha, was scratched at the last minute.-leaving
the competition to Alta
Donovan, u local horse, and Dr. Nick
Riul Toots Burke, a couple of visiting
stepper. , . .
l Thomas' horse. ' with the old
campaigner liimdclf in the sulky, was
easily the class field and had no
trouble in taking the initial heat. Dr.
Nick bcu out Tooti Burke for sec
ond in the heat. Alta Donovan's time
for t'-c mile, 2:1914 was good for
the c'-r.i-5. . , -
Only three colts started in the 2-yca'-old
pace. Castle hotel purse of
$4lXfc a"1' Karhvin, the favorite, lived
up to the dope and captured the heat.
Daila Warrtm and flower Forbes,
both Xchr.-.i!:a animal:;, hail to be con
tent with sjcoml and third positions,
respectively.
. Pacen Are Handicapped.
At this tta-jc of tiie afternoon's
racing the rainstorm broke, and by
the time -the starters in the 2:22
J free-for-all pace, for at the finish of
the first heat in the l.U trot the rain
was coming down in torrents and
spectators were huddling in the rear
of the stands.
The free-for-all, classic on today's
program,, will bring together three of
the fastest steppers in the country
and a fourth animal who should make
the going lively. There are none bet
ter than Ben Earl, 2:OOJ4, Edward
Peterson's famous pacer; Columbia
Fire, 2:04. now owned and driven
by debonair Earl Beerley of Syracuse,
Neb., and Lillian T., 2:10-, the star
Illinois mare who is feared by every
pacer in the country.
While Ben Earl is the prime favor
ite and one the face of things has the
best chahce to win, cither Columbia
Fire or Lillian T. may humble the
Omaha gelding, , who has been the
sensation of sensations on the Grand
circuit. One thing is certain Ne
braska pacing records will go by the
boards.
The added attraction on today's
program will be the three-year-old
trot, Byrne-Hammer company purse
of $700, race that will bring together
some of the fastest animals in the
class in the United States.
Star Three-Year-Olds.
The Unison, Princess Robcy, No
ble Aubrey, Fred C. Todd, Captain
Dale. Bird Maxev and Alicola will
start, Some stellar three-year-old
trotting is bound to be dished up
when this galaxy of steppers gets the
word. ' '
Yesterday was Military Day, so to
day will be, too. Soldiers in uniform,
who were admitted free, were much
in evidence and, lent a wartime ap
pearance to the crowd. Officers oc
cupied boxes. Green's band played
patriotic airs until water bega ndrip
ping down the bass horn. Soldiers
stood at attention while the strains of
the national anthem caused race fans
to. forget the rain and to uncover
their head until the last note of "Oh,
say can you sec had died away.

sort of slow.
Seven starters scored for the word,
with Star Kav, a famous Nebraska
horse, and Lady Sooth and Governor
V, also cornhusker state steppers, the
latter owned in Omaha, the ruling
favorites. Any of these steppers, to
gether with Sable Redlac. were con
ceded a chance to win.
Governor V had an especially
.strong following, but the real pro
phets and the "rail birds" did
not thing Governor Francis' son had a
ghost of a snow with Star Kay. They
thought right, for S(hinstock Bros.'
gelding, cleverly driven by Roy
Owens, soon had the heat sewed up.
Star Kay's reinsman was buggy rid
ing as the van of the field neared the
wire. '
Lady South beat out Governor V.
for second honors in the heat. Sable
Hedlae trotted out a fourth. Star
Kay's time for the mile was,2:174,
considered excellent by the talent in
the face of the inclement weather.

Philadelphia, Aug. 21. All three of
the races on the second day's card of
the Grand circuit race meeting at
Belmont track today were decided
in straight heats, North Spur, Ben Ali
and Bacelli taking their respective
events in handy fashion, although
there were close finishes in the 2:10
pace, which furnished a track record
for open pacing races of 2:04 in, the
second heat.
. North Spur, by San Francisco.
winner at Cleveland last Friday,
owned by Joseph McLaughlin of this
city and driven b yCox, won all thste
heats of the 2:20 trot for the Direc
tors stake at $1,000.
The 2:10 pace for the Adelpha Ho
tet stake t $3,000 was hotly contested.
Ben Ali, the favorite, won in straight
heats. Judge Moore, driven by Good
heart, and Game of Chance, driven
by Cox, made the pace in all three
heats, but the others were killed off
when Pitman made his drive after
passing the half, and it was a Rattle
between Pitman and Cox to the wire,
tow of the three heats resulting in
whipping finishes.
In the 2:13 trot Escelli always had
speed enough to beat out thoes who
challenged and he practically won
his race from wire to wire.
