OF erection for the OF others who are expected
TO join the association during the coming season.
The road leading up the hill from the bridge which
spans the creek, between the track and Central
avenue has been put in fine order, and many other
matters arranged for the comfort OF the public.
The track is in capital condition, and the club
house, under new management, renovated
thoroughly for the opening meeting OF the year,
which commences on the 2lst inst, and continuing
four days, during which time $1l,600 in
purses win be given for the different

the public ny the wonderful performances OF his
horses Startle, Bruno, Pocahontas and Joe Elliott
