There wss no betting of importance uPon'
Saturdays races. Some money changed
hands on the time that would be made in
the Dexter race, but altogether the bettin z
spirit was low.
There was considerable disappointment
felt at the slow time made in the big race,
it being generally expected that Dexter
would 90 better, and It is proper 70 say that
there were many who were disposed to re-
fleet unfavorably upon the matter, as being
without excuse.
