THE RACE.

much larger crowd assembled at the
Agricultural Grounds on yesterday than we
anticipated, the ladies particularly graced the
occasion with their presence. The mile and
repeat race between Madge and Illusion was
not run, as both animals were out of fix and
the forfeit was drawn. At about a quarter
past two the Judges called up 6Iollie II and
Bill Hazel for their match of three miles and
repeat Nolie had the inside, and they got
the word at the first start. Nollies Jockey
bad evidently been directed to run waiting
race, as she kept trailing Hazel for two miles
AMI three quarters, when she made play,
caught him on the home stretch and beat
him out about length, in 5:+S. The second
heat was run in pretty much the same way,
excepting that Nellie passed Hazel after wait
ing upon him for two miles and a quarter,
then passed him, and never was headed, and
winning the race under strong pull in 6:10!.
The first heat was run in excellent time, but
it would have been faster if Hazel had had
the foot to have made it so, as Mollie could
have run over him anywhere III the race had
che been called upon to do 80. Everybody
ieIt that Hazel is a good one, but not feet
enough to compete with such as MOllie Il.

A WASHOE SKYLARK.

Not the sweet voiced warbler whose note
cleayes the Springtime sky and snlites the
grateful ear like jewel OF sound, not of this
welcome songster do we speak. Rather is it
an unwinged creation, creature fashioned
of the earth, earthly, and OF his rude playing
with his fellow. 1t was yesterday, on the
walk opposite our literary window. The
dramatis persona two stout fellows OF the
Washoe tribe. These got to skylarking. One
barefooted, t'other i'll moccasins. There was
an attempt at rastle He OF the naked foot
wore bolt-possibly the champions. Mecca
sin foot was streaked o the face with some
horizontal daubs of white. They boxed hats
and now and then caught a resoundlng thump
athwart the bread basket. They grunted IN
a subdued and semi-silent way as they tus-
seled; and one feared loss Of temper and
fight. But when the ground" was over they
laughed with heartiness and showed their
white teeth in the best of good nature. There
were two spectators, of the same tribe. Also
these laughed and cfapped their hands and
showed their clean worries as they laughed.
Streak face was the better boxer and knocked
barefoot's old hat into hopeless condition of
raggery. When Chinaman came along the
rogues made pass at him, and John took
fresh clutch at his toting-pole and got very
serious of countenance. Meantime, the happy
seemed to enjoy their scuftie, hot
as it was; and the spectators made as much
noise with their plaudits as if it were circus

A SUGGESTION AND QUERY 1t has been
suggested to us that the surplus of the funds
raised for the Virginia sufferers by the people
of Carson might with great propriety be con-
tributed to the Battle Mountain folk. And
this leads to the query; What was ever done
