Tne CONSOLATION CUP--TuE VIRGINIA
RiIIHG Clues TuNn EAcE.---rie announce.
mcnt, according TO rrngrAnnlc, Of the hllI-
d!c-rac" Of this club, one mile, over four hrr-
dies, for silver cup. drew L large crowd to
the Fair Grounds yesterday. A> the time
drew near ior tie race the imraticnCc and
enthusiasm cf the crowd vented itscfi in loud
and prolonged cheers. The ladies, Of whom
there were T.,l!v, were particularly excited
over The coming contest, and their very natu-
ral curiosity tn sec "l that could hc >ccn
manifested itself IN their sttndinS upon the
benches and the seats Gt the many
carriages near The Judges stand. A. the bu-
Gle sounded three riders promptly made
t.rr appearance i'll front Of the stand to re-
crivr iiHal instructions. These were McSSrS.
W. II. Gillian, dressed i'll blue, and mounted
on W. Eoanc Ruilin'S bay gcldng Roanoke !;
Philip HaXa!i, dire scd in black and white,
on \. Seldom .!oncS'S sOircl ii i Rapid Ann !;
and Richard +. phcian. dressed in rcd, on
his own sorrcl nrrc Queen Nab. The horses
were In fine condition. spiigHly and active,
and seemed u realize the work which WIS
REQUIRED of tcm. The riders sat their horses
! likrrX leach WIS confident ofyictory.
As >nun ;ts their proper positions Ind bccu
assigned them the buglc sounded for the
start. and rs they reached the stand the word
SO" rang oct clear and sharp, md each
horse sTl1log forward with rigor. Roanoke
took the lead, closely followed by Rapid Ann
and Queen Nab. As they ncared the first
hurdle Gillian gathered himself for the leap,
and took il in tine flying style, UaNlI
closely following, and he III turn pressed by
PhelaM. Between the tlst ANA second hur-
dies the contest was close and hot between
Gilham and HaNall, the latter closing up the
distance between them, and it was thought
at one time overlapred him. AS the horses
first came III sight from behind the buildings
near the halt:mile post Gillian regained
his distance, and from then to the end Of the
last quarter maintained it, coming under the
string about six lengths ahead Of HaXa!l, in
2:05, amidst loud cheering and waving OF
handkerchieiS. This lncc was universally
citing of the whole fair.
Where III! did SO well wc would not be in
vidiouS in our comparisons, but we cannot
pas: over the excellent manner, without men-
ton, in which Mr.. Gillian rode and managed
his horse. taking each hurdle withouta Il false
step aud in style that elected the admira-
ton and cheers Of the multitude. Mr.. HaX-
all also rode splendidly, as did Mr.. Phelan.
The former, however, seemed to be laboring
under some disadvantage, particularly on the
home-stretch.
The rilvcr cup OF the value Of so was
awarded to Mr. Gilham.
