The Young Flyers That Are to Go Into the
Races of the Association This Week.

This years annual meeting OF the Indiana
Trotting and Pacing HOUSEKEEPING Associa-
tion, which begins tomorrow, bids fair to eclipse
any previous meeting ever held by this associa-
ton. There is no better race-track in the coun-
try. 1t is said, than the one at the State fair
grounds, it being SO well arranged. that
the many horses of noted sires
can, il properly managed, not
only maintain their standard record but in
crease it beyond the most hopeful expectations.
1t is, horsemen say, decidedly a better track
than any in adjoining States. The excellence OF
this track is attributed to the careful supervision
which r. NJ. Lockhsrdt. superintendent of the
State fair, gave to its construction. Horsemen
have brought here for the meeting colts OF
the most noted sires in the country,
hence it is easy to understand
why such widespread interest in this weeks
races is being manifested. Or the sires repre-
eented by their colts the following are especial
" noticeable: Hsmbrino. Jim Wilson, Prince
ton, Royal Mont, Red Wilkes, Jersey Wilkes.
Redwood. Bartholomew Wilkes, Royal Hanson,
New Jersey Volunteer. Strathmore, Gen. Wash-
~ineton, Thomas A Scott. Nutburn, st. Armand,
