Messrs. Bestrick and Smith each bet
$50 on their birds beating. The bird
making the fastest time per mile will
BE- declared the winner. The bird
mentioned In last Wednesdays REpUB-
LIcAN of alighting on the Clayton
House, did not return home. The
trainers had their doubts about the
flying ability Of the bird as he was
most too young to be let loose.
