VI. Salisbury IS scertainly the possessor
Of several remarkable horses, and II
they are not heard FROM before the end
of the season something will be radi-
cally wrong. Yesterday afternoon
Margaret 5, another of the California
string, Was gwen an airing, and she
showed a very fast quarter.
Before the races of the day started
she was logged around for mile IN
2:23, the first half being made IN l:l0.
Later on she was given the quarter, and
the timers caught her in 32!, a 2:l0 gait.
This time would have been reduced at
least half second had she not stumbled
when coming into the stretch. She was
afterwards gwen a mile IN 2:24.
Margaret 5. is beautiful chestnut
mare, and like all the California string
shown here, she is as steady as clock
work. She has been entered for the
free-for-ali today, when she Will meet
Alcryon, and great race may be ex-
pected.
The weather has cut quite figure
IN the success of the present meeting
OF the Horsemen's Association. Yester-
day was another typical day for the
flyers, and the attendance was much
larger than on Wednesday. The races
though not as exciting as on the preyi-
Gus day, furnished plenty of amuse-
ment. They were also exciting at
times. The first race was the 2:35 trot
for purse of 5000. There were six
entries, but only four starters. They
were Indiana Belle, Victor B., Rosa c.
and Star GaZer. In this race Indiana
Belle was the fayorlte, selling IN the
pools for SO, Rosa c. sold for 50, and
the field for 81. The pool box suif-
cred, however, as Rosa G. won against
seeming combination of the other
horses, they having the appearance of
banding together To beat her out. "he
judges, however, put stop to this kind
of work.
Alcryon Jr. and Wilton Wilkes were
drawn from the two-year-old race, and
the result was that it proved a tame
affair. Lihbie s. sold favorite as
9 against ) for the field. The starters
were: Libbie s., Ilderike and Charley
Ellis. Alcryon Jr. unfortunately in
jured his hip in the stall in the morn
ing and had TO be scratched.
The special race for a purse of $500
did not furnish much excitement, as
Dan S. had everything his own way.
The other starters were Prince Sprague,
Dick and Myrna.
THE 2:35 TRoT.
First heat-Rosa G. had the pole, but
Indiana Belle Immediately jumped to
the lead and was never headed. 1t was.
procession all the way around.
Indiana Belle was three lengths ahead
at the three-quarters and two at the
stretch. Rosa c. was second for the
first half but Victor b. passed her by
a squirt. Rosa c. finished third and
Star Gazer fourth. Time 2:3l.
Second heat-Indiana Belle again
demonstrated that she was too fast, but
it would probably have been different
had not Rosa c. lost shoe at the half
when she was making good race for
first place. She was neck and neck
with Indiana Belle, but after the acci-
dent she broke and dropped to last
place finally finishing a poor second.
At the three-quarters Indiana Belle was
SIX lengths ahead and she finished the
mile the same lead. Rosa C.. was sec
ond six lengths ahead of Star Gazer.
Time 2:29}.
Third heat-This was the most excit-
ing heat yet trotted. Indiana Belle
took the lead and held it for three
quarters of a mile, with Rosa G. a
length behind. When coming into the
stretch Rosa G. crawled up by INCHES,
and as they neared the finish they were
neck and neck. Finally Rosa c. forged
anead, and won by nose, amidst the
applause of the audience. 1t was q
race from the start to finish, Rosa c..
breaking her record. Hereafter she
will have to go in the 2:29 class, rs she
made the mile in 2:2S4. Victor B., as
before, acted badly, breaking before he
reachee the quarter. Star Gazer crossed
the finish third, six lengths behind In
diana Belle
Fourth heat-There was great excite
ment in this heat, as it was a case of
three against one and the Judges saw it in
this light much TO the satlfactlOn of the
audience. The race. however, was an
excellent one and Rosa c. would have
won easily had she not been whipsawed.
The horses all started away IN bunch
with Indiana Bell IN the lead at the
quarter. Victor b. at the half, Indiana
Belle and Victor B. pocketed Rose c.
Victor also broke and Rosa g. was
pushed TO the outside quarter Of tine
track. Victor r. would not let her pass.
Indiana Belle WAS taking advantage of
the pocket to get away. It was the
same up TO the three-qusrters. The
horses all came down the stretch at a
lively pace, Indiana Belle finishing first
and Victor B., Rosa &. and star Gazer
in the order named. The judges after
long dehberstIon decided to give the
heat to Rosa c. Indiana Belle was set
back 70 third, and Victor B. % fourth.
President Smiley announced that Rosa
G.. had been fouled by two Of the horses.
Time 2.3lt
Fifth hest-This heat was for blood
and the judges placed two patrols al
different portions Of the track so as tC
insure far play. Rosa G. and Indiana
Beile were selling even in the pools, and
great excitement reigued among the
audience. Rosa G. took TIE lead and
held @ to the fin sh, although she wa'
pushed hard by Indisna Belle. At toe
