his previous trumphs in tie Belmont and 1rayers
stakes. SO grati1ed influential member OF the

sentative tnat the spur Of the moment he ohered 10
bet 5000 to $4,000 play or pay, that Joe Daniels would
win the rich Dixie stakes at Baltimore next FALL
although there 10 horses entered in IT, Meteor was
