An EXCITING RACg-DRXTRR BEATEN BY A
DIsRErUTABLE LITTLE SHAGGY HoRsE.-We
were approaching the long rise which termi-
mates az the Jerome Park House when we
came up with Il venerable pump in broad
brim hat and shad- belly coat, seated behind 4
disreputable little shaggy horse. Dexter was
about passing the concern, when the ancient
buffer gave his shaggy horse 4 touch with the
whip, ard he shot ahead like Il bomb. shell
Bonner hcsitated 4 moment, and then gave the
word, and away we went after the pony. But
our shad was Il singer. His pony ran like
Grant or the cholera. We did not pass him.
II was an up grade, and heavy in dust and
sand. Dexter had we'll on 10 eight hundred
behind him. We steadily gained, however,
and as we did the staid old shad touched his
disrepGtahle boss, and the little fellow bent
honestly down 10 his work, until he seemed to
hug the road. ! saw Bonuer's eyes flash and
his face flush. He tightened the lines ard
yelled ut tie horse, who responded nobly. We
gained steadily. Dexter was overtaking shad,
sure rs fate.
"Never mind" said Bonner, await till we
Dexter won't feel the weight, and Ill show

We passed the hotel fairly flying. l saw the
feet, aud heard their cheer 10 the famous trot-
ter. We reached the turn of the hill. DeX.

shnd's buggy, when Il sight presented itself
that ended the race. The road was crowded
with vehicles, coming and going. To shoot
Dexter down among them was death TO some
