THE RACE MEETING.

The race meeting, which closed yes
terday, was characterized by numerous
good events, fair time and slender audi
enccs. The slenderness Of tho audiences
was undoubtedly due to the prevailing
bad weather, which broke the interest
and dampened the spirits of hundreds
who would otherwise have attended.
The stockholders of the Racing Associa-
tion deserve great credit for their pluck
in carrying on meeting under such ad-
verse circumstances.
There is no question but what we
have in Roanoke one of the finest half
mile tracks in the South, and there
will be ample support and encourage
ment extended to tho managers to try
their luck again in the fall.
1t is pleasure to be able to announce
that not single race or event in the
whole programme of the meeting has
been tinged by anything savoring of
unfairness or crookedness. If this rep
ntation for fair play and honest racing
be maintained we will yet have the best
racing meetings in Virginia.

that it is largely the work of James A.

Mr.. Pugh's effort is that it not only ad
vertises the CITY eff Roanoke, but tie
