“ PROSPECT PARK FAIR GROUNDS, Second Day of the Spring Meeting. TWO CAPITAL TROTTING CONTESTS. Thomas Jefferson the Winner of the First and Fanny Fern the Second. A Fime Attendance and Music by the Band. Yesterday morning, which opened fair enough, ‘With but just a suspicion of a cloud, was deemed by many 80 unpromising that the numbers at the Pros- pect Park Fair Grounds exceeded but little the attend- ance of the day before. There were over 2,000 persons Present. Toward two o'clock in the afternoon the Toads skirting Prospect Park presented a lively ‘Bight as the /ast trotters of the sports and the wealthy patrous of the tart went raceward Ike lignht- ming fMashes. Beauty im its barouches and landans was visible, too, decked in the coolest Of coo] summer raiment. Sweet faces peepea from under enchanting hats as from beneath a dainty Moral bower, and smiles in keeping with the consciousness of that mysterious power over the stronger animal—man. ‘he horse cars, 100, aid a roaring trade, and wherever they falled to disgorge their sportive freight near the racecourse crowds of jolly pedes- trians footed it mthe Long Island dust, without a Single misgiving, At the course the same high spirits prevailed, The fine clubhouse, stana- ing boldly ont beside the Grand Stand, ‘Was covered, as to its roomy balconies, with love! airy forms, The Grand Stand itself was not so for- tunate, being mostly occupied by those anxious to turn an honest hundred dollars or two on any of the events of the Gay. ‘The pool selling was lively enough, and jokes in abundance were interpolated between the short, business-like orations of the auctioneer. The scene at the first fair start was fine. There was just suMicient’ enthusi- asm to warrant a good day's hippie enjoyment, The ample course, the fast horses, the Milarious throng and the splendid panorama of woodland and water view combined to put a be- holder at ease with the world around him, It ts a great pity tat the National Trotting A lation do not take it into t sapient heads to ens force the wearing of colors by those aniving the animals, Yesterday not a single color by which horse was distinguishable was visible. The re- sult Was a miserable lack of that final excitement Which is nine-tenths of the Interest of the course, What couid be more miserable than the queries pnt by an anxious but not well posted votary of the turt? Which is Lady Ross }" “Oh, thai’s him with the busted boots.”? ell, which is Purity “rhat’s him with the seedy pepper and salt Ket," “Well, can't you tell me which is Fanny Fern?” “Oh, that’s him with the sandy beard.” If the horse owners cannot afford silk jackets why Not put on cotton ones, so that at a distance the rivers can be told asa man recognizes his swim- ming friends at Long Brauch by the stmpes and colors of their bathing suits? Another cause ofa Sailing off in excitement is the number of false ®larts when a large number of horses are entered for an event. Surely this also can be remedied, The want of some strict rule on the matter only tires the animals and the public. The band of the Ninth regiment, with Mr. Levy's comet, eyegiass, waxed mustache and self at their head, discoursed some fine music in the Pauses, which were frequent. At hi st eix O'clock the thunder cloud promise of the morning Was fulfilled. A dark mass of cloud, ex- tending from north to south and rising from the w: stole up, lke a giant pall, over the ky. Under it and with it marched a deluge of rain, which was not long in plotting and Dlurring the fine features of the Jandscape, and then drenching every one that could not find acover. This untoward happen naturally marred the delights of the retura home. As night blackened rouna vivid flashes of lightning would fing their ins‘ant luridness abroad, making the hurrying carriages and wagons look luxe fying phantoms The Trotting. The programme announced two events for the | Gay’s amusement, the first being a purse of $2,000 for horses that had never beaten , the first horse to receive $1,200, the second $000 and the third $200, mile Keats, best three in five, in harness.

The Fair Financiers’ Family Feuds—That Irre- pressible Old Lady—Calling for Blood’s Blood—Both Sides ofthe Story. Another Chapter in the Affair—A Brother- in-Law Found Dead. No. 15 East Thirty-eighth street is one of a row of elegant three story and high stoop brown stone houses, presenting, exteriorly, all the evidences of taste in architectural design and lavish wealth that are found in the first class residences in that aristo- cratic faubvourg of upper-tendom, Perhaps there are within @ rifle-shot distance of it flve hundred houses equally as pretezitious In their outside get-up, but periiaps none that cuntain so mixed a class of sleepers and consumérs of the delicacies which this life affords, Within its thick walls also repose the members of the firm of WOODLULL, CLAFLIN & CO., BROKERS, No. 44 Broad street. Besides these the brown walls shield from the scorching rays of the June sun the mother and father of the female brokers, and report says that much of the time Stephen Pearl Andrews’ teet ind a welcome resting place below the mahog- any dining tavle. Everything that wealth can buy and taste suggest Ouds a lodgment in this classic residence of the Clafiin-Woodhull family. So much for the house, by way of introduction, It ts well Known to the reading public that members of the unhappy family have recently dragged beiore the community and the courts their grievances, and, therefore, they have become matter of record for the press. “On Wednesday morning, about eight o’clock, the quietude of the neighborhood was disturbed by a sua- den énwute in the family mansion. Tne front door was flung suddenly open and out rushed a man, said to be the head of the house, Blood. After him came the female brokers, and bringing up the rear THE FEMALE PROGENITOR OF THE FEMALE TRIO, ‘The brokers turned to the right toward Fifth ave- nue and the man was following in their stately wake, when the mother-in-law, Mrs, Claflin, crossed us path hike an avenging Nemesis, In a moment the quiet air of the morning was piercet by cries of “YOU BLOODY RUFFIAN !”? “You imp of the devil!" “You candidate for hell!” “You vile free-lover!? “You have ruimed my da‘ters! I'll have yer life”? Blood feared to face the fury of the old lady and re- treated down to Madison avenue, followed by her, whose strides were equal to Weston’s best ef- forts. Blood, however, was fleeing when the in- dignation of a woman pursued, and soon placed hus silk tat and lavender Kids out of danger of a mother-in-law’s wrath and savage Claws, tat also threatened his throat. While this lively street scene was being enacted the female brokers were mev- ing off in an opposite direction, with the eyes of ail the residents of the block foliowing them, and alternately viewing the ebb and fow of battle be- tween Blood and his mother-in-law. After the jJadies had disappeared the old lady retreated to the house, and mm a oroken tenor screamed:- “MY DA’TERS, COME BACK TO YOUR MAMMA! Mamma wants you! Come back ! Come back! It is neediess to say the fair brokers didn’t return. Blood did, Approaching the servant, he whispered a word and retired, ‘Lhe doors were closed, and a moment later the veneravle mother of the brokers sat down exhausted upon the stone stoop, monarch of that much of the ‘Thirty-eighth street manor at leust. There she sat in the scorching sun until one o’clock in the afternoon, When a reporter climbed the steps aud sat down beside her, “What was the trouble here this morning, Mrs, Claflin?” he asked, “The trouble | I was giving THAT BLOODHOUND BLOOD apiece of my mind. ‘the villa! The enemy of my poor gais! He’sruinin’ ‘em! He boasts he'll rum them. He says Vin crazy; but J ain't, am 1?” “Oh, no, Madam, you are a3 sane aslam. But teli me what leu to the quarrel,” sald the reporter.
