UNION COURSE, l.. I.-TROTTIEG.
When our reporter reached the Union Course the
stands and field presented lively appearance, and
the horses were on the track warming up for the
race. The Hnanciers were in groups, piling up the
"stuf" as they call 1t, at one hundred to thirty on
Flo,s Temple. Mac stock was in little demand, the
appearance Of his legs lettering many from backing
him. His OF hind leg was bandaged to the hook in
red flannel; and although many knew that he had
trotted in 2:27 in private trial. few days before,
they were not willing TO risk much on game leg.
Harry Jones was driving him without q collar or
breast strap, and without traces, which thought
by the crowd rather an unusual If not an unwise
manner Of bringing horse to the ,st for such an
important match; hence the long odds on Flora.

manage him any better. The horses were started
