SPECIAL RACE, FIRST HEAT.

SPECIAL RACE, FIRST HEAT.
 Owing to lack of starters in the three mln- ute class the was declared oH ana special race was started, the horses starting being Flode Holden, who had the outside, and Sadie Wilkes, who had the pole, and was selling for S12 in the pools against Flode Holden for $25. The horses had great trouble in scoring, owing to the breaking of Sadie Wilkes, but they scored after about dozen attempts in good shape. Sadie Wilkes had, however, hardly gone under the wire when sine went into the air and did not again get on her feet until after she had passed the quarter, and Flode Holden by this time was nearly sixteenth of mile in the lead talk ing things easy and waiting for Sadie Wilkes to get somewhere near her, so that she should not be shut out. Flode Holden finished first about three sulky lengths ahead of Sa- die Wilkes.
 SECOND HEAT. In this heat the horses started neck and neck, but Sadie Wilkes took the lead and held it throughout, winning easily, as the driver of Flode Holden evidently held in to let Sadie Wilkes win the heat, and for this reason all bets were declared off. THIRD HEAT. This heat was as bad as the last, Sadie Wilkes taking the lead at the start and win ming for the reason that Flode Holden did not try to win it, the latter coming in sec Oud on a run, ana all pets ana pOOlS were again declared off.
 FOURTH HEAT. In this heat F'lode Holden's driver was | taken off and Driver F. w. Reynolds put on the sulky to drive the heat and drive it fair I ly. At the start Sadie Wilkes took the lead l over Flode Holden. The latter appeared tired and kept falling behind, but gained somewhat on the last quarter and came in about twenty rods behind Sadie Wilkes, who | finished first.
