FINE RACING.
An Interesting Contest Yesterday
Afternoon.


a very large crowd of people went
out to the race course yesterday after.
noon 10 witness an exciting race be-
tween Dolly W., the little brown who
created so much enthusiasm at the
ace track on San Jacinto day, and an
unknown horse called George W., the
property of Jno. Monroe. This horse
was reputed to be very fast and looks
asif he was flyer. Nobody had
ever seen him tried, however, and
consequently it was a guess as to the
winner.
The mare won the first heat and the
horse won the two second heats. The
crowd then became convinced that the
horse could win, but the mare won
the last two heats and the race. The
contest was for $500, halt mile heats
best three in FIVE. The best time wa.
LII.
That sorrel horse will fool some
body this fall.

WALNUT SPRINGS PICNIC.
Grand Preparations fer the Cele-
bration on May 10.


The Texas Central has issued flyers
advertising the annual picnic at Wal
nut Springs, reading as follows:
Again the people of Walnut Springs
invite their neighbors, from Waco TO
Albany, to their annual picnic, which
will be given on Thursday, May 10,
1892. The Texas Central railway
will run excursion trains from Waco
and Albany and intermediate stations

$50 a. M, leaving Albany at 6:1O
IN. Returning, leave Walnut at
p. u. The fare for the round trip
is good on excursion trains
going; returning on any train until the
goth
The fare from Waco will be 81 and
from other towns in proportion.
His excellency Governor Hogg has
been invited, but whether or not he
will be there we do not know. Judge
Clark, who wants to be the future
governor of Texas, has been invited,
and if he accepts the invitation and
pays his dollar, he also will be there.
This will be the picnic of the pic
nicers. The Walnut Springs Flying
Artillery have been drilling for weeks
under Capt. F. A. Dehn, who saw
service at Sebastopol No one who
knows Captain Dehn will de(h)uy
his great bravery. His services in the
Crimea were only surpassed by those
in Egypt, where he ratified every
mummy in the country, and worried
the Sphinx terribly.
The gun club have "lots" of glass
balls, clay pigeons and live birds, and
will be managed by Bob Walton. Pat
Farrell did faGDrrelly we'll last year as
manager, but lost the job this year,
Walton will receive the same compen-
sation as heretofore, viz; all the broken
glass.
The base ball boys are in fix and
will play all corners for fun or money,
aud will be backed by the town. Usu
ally one of the club does the backing,
as back stop-these hackers will stop
with the boys as long as the beer lasts.
They have floating palace on the
lake with string band (or lovers only
under the direction of Smith Parr,
said to be the original old Parr, the
inventor of PARIS life pills. He is
reputed to be now over 200 y ears old,
tho he does not look it, being gay and
very risky.
The dancing pavilion has been i'm
proved and is now better and much
larger than ever used at Walnut
Springs before. Swings and "Flying
Dutchman" and many other sports for
children. There will be lots to eat,
lots of fun, and
You may sing you may swing
You may dance, You may prance

While "the flowers thstblCOm
In the spring. will consume
Your soul, which will burst out In song,
That's in the forenoon, the morning
of the great day. The above is where,
like Mr., Wegg, we dropped into poe
try, but it's nothing to the next verse,

when full of Ozone-with a friend or alone
or charged up full of eetTcty,
Take the Texas Central cars and then thank
