HIS PRETTY MASCOT.
How a Pretty Girl Made the Winner Of q
Race.

How q Pretty Girl Made the Winner Of q
During the recent races in this city Of the
Dumblane Club Carteret, owned by Mr.. VIII
Hayes of Warrenton, Va, won two cups and
the plaudits Of grand stand full of bellies and
beaux. In each Of these races pretty Wash
ington girl had bet her last pin money on Car
teret and Mr.. Hayes called her his mascot.
After the races here Mr.. Hayes went to o
similar meeting at Brookline, near Boston, and
Carteret was entered for last Wednesdays race
Mr.. Hayes being over weight he was compelled
to employ jockey, and when the race was fin
ished Carteret was fifth in a string Of eight and
dropped away down in the pools.
Suffice it to say the young lady was not there
to bet on her favorite, but MIR. Hayes had not
forgotten her.
Immediately after the race he wrote to her
tale of woe and begged of her to make at once
with her own hands ribbon bow of his colors
(black and Whitley and send it for him to wear
in Saturday s race, in which he would be trained
down to ride. She responded on the spot
built the bow and sent it under a special de-
livery stamp to Boston and awaited results most
anxiously. The race was run and Sunday morn
ing she received a telegram from Mr. HAYES to
this effect: ''Carteret wins the race. Paid 40
to l."
He wore the mystic mascot bow, of course,
and therein hes the charm Of this very pretty
little story.
