THE rRI4L OF SPEED,
between trotting stations, took place
about four O'Clock. At the rail Of the
judges the horses Pilot TeYpLe, entered
aud driven by NJ. COlyin, Grey Messenger,
entered and driven by Il. Lindsey, aud
SUI RiUer, entered and driven by ;. l..
Long, were brought 10 the score. There
were two other horses nained-BtucheF,
by Mr.. Logwood. and Nat. CoiviR, by Mr..
Iisach, that did not appear. The horses
stripped well, the bay(PtlOt Temple being
the favorite, Gyey Messenger second
choice. After II false start, the
IRIS HEAT
was cemmenced-wiih Plot TeEple in
side. Greg Messenger second, and the
black horse third. AT the tap ofthe drum
the bay took the lead, followed closely by
GREY Messenger, Salt RiUer bringing up
the rear. As the bay passed the half-mile
Ipst the distance began to.widen between
The horses. and they came dQwn the last
quarter well a~part-Tempte hESt, sERSSeR-
ger second, and the black horse last.
Temple tool the heat Ia 2;46. There was
n little argument as to h lime, II being
first announced at 2;4454 from the Presi-
dents stand, but afterwards corrected by
the appointed tiner.l
After AL interval of some fifteen min
utes the horses were put to, and without
a balk, and got away very nearly even on
the
SECOND HEAS,
The bay horse, as in the first heat, takiBg
the lead and keeping il all the way
around, winning the heat easily in 2:46-
S0u RiUer coming in second and Grey
Messenger behind.
1t became q settled thing, now, hat
Temple would get the race in three
straight heats, as ME driver had not
pushed him a particle in tBS two heats al
gone, while the other horses bad
evidently done their b'st. Had 1t nSt
been for the desire to see what Temple
could do, all inteFeat in the match would
have here terminated. but n conviction
that the last heat would be made by him
in about 2:34 or '331z kept horsemen on
the qHf cree, and the
THIRD HEAT
was started. Every eye was on the
bay, as be skinned over the course,
shutting OHj" the other two,
and dOi9g his last mile in 2.33A, and win
ming the $50 purse and The premium for
the fastest t~rotting stallion on exhibition.
II seemed the general impression that the
could have made the last mile in
2:3O, at the outside, had he been pushed
for il. We viii remark here that the
track was dead SLOW
This evening a trial of speed will be had
Pilot Temple and MorrisSey, /
which will be well worth witnessing.
NOrriSSey, it will be remembered, took
.hrse strait heats on Wednesday.
MISCELLANEOUS.
