The late DR.. Guthrie was equal to any
emergency, physically OF othe wise.
While engaged in PASTORAL visitation he
came one day to the door OF an Irish
Papist, who was determined that the
doctor should not enter his house.
You can not come in here, said he;
you're not needed nor wanted.
MY friend, said the Doctor, I'm only
visiting round my parish to become ac-
quainted with my people, and have called
on you only as parislioner.
II don't matter, said Paddy, YOU shan't
come in here, aud with that, lifting tho
poker be said II you come il here m
knock yer down.

/ to reason; the Tue Doctor did neither,
but drawing himself up TO bis full height,

TROTTING AT WHITE PLAINS.

Grand Attendance and Well Contested
Events-Blivin's spotted Colt the VIM
ner of the 2,32 Race, Hattie O'Neal the
Running Purse, and the Three Minute
Trot Postponed After Eight Heats.
The Society OF Agriculture and Horticulture OF
Westchester county closed their annual fair yes
terday with three trotting events-that is, they
intended that it should wind up the very success
ful reunion; but the three minute contest proved
to be so stubbornly contested that 1t was post
poned after eight heats, until Monday. The officers
of the society can feel proud of the unprecedented
favor which the exhibition has found in the eyes
OF the people for miles around White Plains and
the quiet and agreeable manner in which
the trotting events have been decided. Great
masses OF people have been on hand daily and
the best OF order preserved the police force under
Captain Mangin, OF Yonkers, proving very enicient.
Though not so large as the preceding days, the
crowd yesterday numbered several thousand, and
one and all seemed to enjoy the sport.
There we're two trotting and one running event
on the card. First of these was a purse OF $500,
Tor horses that had never beaten three minutes,
mile heats best three In five, in harness; $500 to
the first, $3.50 to the second and $50 to the third
horse. There were eleven entries for this,
and all came to the score for the word. Be-
fore the start Break o. Day was the
tavortte, with Lookout selling second and well up,
the rest In the Held. LOOKOUT won the fifSt heat
and Break o. Day the second, when he became the
favorite over all the rest, two to one. Then Lady
Wood Dan and Lookout made a dead heat In the
third and the betting fraternity became nervous,
yet Break o. Day still had the CALL lie won the
fourth heat In style. At the conclusion of this heat
leave was asked the judges to withdraw Frank
and Lookout, the former on account Of having the
''sraggers" and the latter the "thumps." After
much consultation and proof that the respective
horses we're thus ailing permission was given
as requested. Then Break o. Day went still higher
in the pools, and the boys thought they had "a
sure thing" Lady Wood won the nth heat, and
Break o. Day and Dan made dead heat for second
place. The sixth heat was dead heat between
Dan and Carrie; the seventh Lady Wood won
easily, and the eighth was given to Carrie. At this
time, it being dark, the race was postponed until
Monday, at three O'CLOCK r. NJ 10 the majority OF
the spectators 1t has lost its charm, however, as
Break o. Day was distanced In the seventh heat
and the feeders raked down all the money. The
following, go lar as progressed. ass

THE RACE.
Impecunious was first away, and he went over
the first hurdle with Revenge, Blind Tom two
lengths behind. Revenge and ImpecuniOus ran
side and side around the upper turn, and when
they came to the second hurdle, at the quarter
pole, they made the Jump together. Impecunious
leaped clear over the hurdle while Revenge burst
right into it, throwing himself and giving his rider
Pepper) q shock that stunned him for some mo-
ments. All Revenge's chances for winning
were now out OF the question, as he ran
away from his Jockey, and there was
at least fifty yards ahead OF Blind Tom, and the
former seemed too far ahead to be overtaken, as
he seemed to have an unusual amount OF speed.
ImpecuniOus jumped the third hurdle clean, as he
did the fourth, which was stationed on the home
stretch. When he passed the stand he was lead
ing fifty yards and running strong. AS he made
the jump the flfth his saddle broke and one OF
then swerved to the right, and by BY
equilibrium anu straightened the horse Blind
Tom had shut up considerable OF the daylight At
the sixth hurdle lmpecunOus was three lengths
ahead, and at the seventh one length only Then
Blind Tom collared him, and they ran side and side
to the eighth and last hurdle, which they jumped
together. very exciting finish ensued, and
Blind Tom won the race by hall length, making
the TWO miles IN four minutes. AS Evans at
tempted TO stop Impecunious, not having a foot
hold. he tumbed on the horse's back and was
somewhat bruised but not injured badly.
And this closed the days sport.
