the starters in the 2:29 trotting race to
have their horses ready TO sandwich be-
tween the pacing heats. For the pacing
race The starters were frankie 5, b. g.,
entered by Geo. Smith; Black Frank, blk.
g., by Sam. White, and Gray Dim, Or. g.
by P. LaDgdon. The race was won
in three straight beats by
frankie B. Beyond the fact that it was
good exhibition of the side wheel style Of
going. The only interest attaching to this
race conferred in the removal Of Jerome
Mckinney from the sulky of Black Frank,
on the supposition he was not driving to
win, and the substitution of Ed. johnson.
While the change made no difference in the
result, the finish in the heat was exciting,
both horses being under the whip
down the stretch, and Frankie
having only head the best of it as she
passed under the wire.
