AT THE PARK. 



Yesterday the Park opened at seven o'clock a. m. The grand par- 

 ade of stock took place at nine o'clock. President R. B. Hayes and 

 party being present, were invited into and occupied the judges' 

 stand. Immediately after the parade of stock was over, Sherman's 

 trained horses were exhibited in front of the grand stand. There 

 was a very large concourse of people present at an early hour, and 

 they remained the entire day. The shooting tournament, under the 

 auspices of the Forester Gun Club, was concluded. 



During the parade of stock an accident occurred which nearly cost 

 a colored boy, who is employed in Judge Terry's stables, his life. He 

 was on the inner track exercising his horse. When he was passing 

 the judges' stand there were some hacks standing in the way. The 

 horse made a sudden stop and threw the boy over his head. He 

 received a very hard fall and was unconscious for some time. He 

 was taken to his stable and soon revived.
