ton yesterday.
The grounds are comparatively new as
yet. but are rapidly taking on the APP
pearance peculiar to a race course.
Since the Fourth of July, when the last
races of consequence took place. quite a
number of buildings have been erected.
At the east end of the grounds stand the
stables. seven in number. Each one con
tains fifteen stalls, making the total
number 10j. The stalls are commo-
dious, being l2x1l in size and are excel
lently fitted out for ventilation. Just
outside the track stands a new building
which will be used for IA pool % and
saloon. 1t is heavily rooted to shut out
the sun and is 3JxS0 feet in size. South
of this is the grand stand which has a
seating capacity of from loo to LOO.
Across the track from these will stand
the band and judges stand.
The track, which is the regulation mile
track, is said to be the finest in the state.
Not a rock or pebble can be found on its
smooth surface. The turns are all prop
erly graded and thrown up. Not salts
fed with well enough the employees of
the association are constantly at work
on the track improving it.
OF the seven stables four are already
up and lack nothing but the painters
touching to finish them up. The south
east stable is filled with horses.
Dave Churchill has four fine animals.
