amount of betting done.
DIR. A. II. Mitchell and Messrs. John b.
Pemberton, Thos. Stuart, Sam Scott and
John Bielenberg acted az judges and timers
aud the gentlemen are accredited with hav-
ing discharged their by no means pleasan :
duties In manner satisfactory to all. Il
is very difficult and almost an impossibility
to have O teries of races with which some
one will not find fault, but even those who
staked their money and lost seemed con-
viaced that there wa, an earnest endeavor
to have everything conducted fairly, and
the day was enjoyable a. predicted and an
ticipated.
