RACING SATURDAY.-Owing to the I'M
pleasant weather there was but small at
tendance at the park to witness the racing
Saturday afternoon. The first race was
between the trotters Cleveland Lucy. Kate
Bender and Mink (pacer) for a purse of
$3.50 Cleveland won the first heat in
2:354, Mink the second and third in 2.334
and 2:35t, and Lucy the fourth in 2:35E. 1t
then being too dark to complete the race.
II was ordered postponed until , p. NJ. to-
day. Between the heats Dr. NJ. w. Hicks
undertook to drive G. w. Hancocks pacing
yearlng hlly Daisy a mile to beat the best
yearlng record over that track-2:4I The
hlly had never been driven but one mile at
full speed before, and lately. owing to the
bad weather, has been short of work. II
was scarcely believed probable therefore
that, on such depressing day as Saturday
was, she would be able to perform the feat
AT the first send-of she broke at the first
turn, and went back for another trial. Her
driver next time went slowly around that
turn, and then, finding her settled. urged
the speed, making the first quarter in AZ
seconds, and the half in 1:20l, the three
quarters IN POI, and the mile according To
official announcement, in 2:40, though sew
eral experienced timers made it 239f. This
IS, If we recollect RIGHTLY, the best time for
a yearling PAGER, and becomes a record,
having been made for valuable con-
slderatlon "a whip. The fastest trotting
time Tor a yearling was made by Kinda
Rose at the Bay District track in Novem-
per- loSl-2:56t. Daisy is by Prompter,
dam Nelson mare. Ifthe weather is such
during the remainder of the month that
her work Will not be interfered with. and
the track remains good an effort will be
made, before the year closes. to beat her rec
ord of Saturday.
WELL MATED.-M. L. Goforth, who was
recently arrested in this city, and tried
twice for completely in a case of petit lar
ceny, in assisting in beating man out of
so by means of thimble-rig game. but
was discharged because of both iuries fail
ing to agree; and who had previously been
arrested for and pleaded guilty of battery
upon woman who represented herself to
be his wife, left the city last Thursday for
San Francisco in company with Mrs Susie
u. Hurtado widow ofJoe Hurtado who at
the time of his death was under sentence
OF death for killing Jose Estuardo, because
OF the latter's familiarity with Mrs. Hur-
iadO. The couple went to Oakland. and
were there married by Justice of the
Peace on Friday. Mrs Hurlado has been
living fast life since the death of her hus-
band, having found friends" who sup
piled her with money very literally. 1t is
doubtful whether GOforth was married TO
the woman who represented herself to be
his wife. Before coming here, few weeks
ago she had, the police say, been keeping
house of prostitution at Rio Vista, and
when Goforth left town last week she told
the officers that she thought he had gone
to Rio Vista to sell the property they left
there-a trick he had played her on a
previous occasion. Subsequently she
learned of his having started for San Fran
cisco with Mrs. Hurtado, by the steamer,
and Immediately went to the Bay to hunt
them up, but unsuccessfully.
