FAST TIMES REGISTERED

GREYMOUTH, June 18.

The concluding day of the Nelson Trotting Club's annual fixture was held at Greymouth on. Saturday in fine weather and before a large attendance. Keen racing was again witnessed and some very fine times were registered on a track which was in excellent condition for speed. In the Nelson Trotting Club Handicap the winner, Gold Paper, established the new two-mile winning figures for the course of 4min 33 2-ssec, and the runner-up, Waress, set up the new track record at 4min 30 4-5 Financially the fixture was also a success, as Saturday's investments, which amounted to £7786 (win £3729 and place £4057) brought the total for the two days to £13,783, which must be considered a very satisfactory figure. As the club held only a oneday meeting last iseason, and that at Nelson, a fair' comparison cannot be drawn. Details are as follow:
