mer meeting. In the face or connlctlnS
meetings advertised for other places, it
required men of superb nerve, trained
business acumen. generous financial re-
sources, and a confidence that would
not be dismayed to plan and carry to
fruition a successful meeting on the
Hamline course. The list shows. be-
You'd question, that all the prelimi-
naries were handled in mastery shape,
that the foundations for ultimate VIC
tory over adverse prospects have been
laid deep and strong, and that Secretary
Shaw has good cause to congratulate
himself on the really handsome showing
he is able to make in the way of star
entries for the big stake events, which
naturally assures full fields and crack
Ing good contests for the purse races.
Among the silk-stocking frst-place
racers in the Derby list, Ed Corrigan's
game and swift Huron will at once fix
attention, but right up in his line may
be placed Newton, Herald. German, Yo
Tambien, if properly prepared, Carls-
bad, Judge Hughes. Ray 5. Chief JUS
tice, Dore. and several others whose
lineage should give them prestige under
favorable conditions in race for repu
tstiun and simoleonS. Hispanla, several
times a disappointment last year, is evil
IDENTIFY pleasing to her owners, and Cey-
w
Emperor Regent, Nettie B, Glenoid,
Mariner, Cicero, are all possible picks
by students of blood lines and seekers
for long odds. Fifty-seven well-bred
animals appear in the Derby list.
Among the thirty-three three-year-old
allies entered for the Twin City Oaks
the best, considering past performances,
are 70 Tambien. Callie Ferguson. Lena
Frey and Lillian Beatrice. Doubtless,
however, several of those not now con-
sidered good will extend themselves
with the opening of the spring and be
right in line for victory on the day of
the race.
Forty-three fleet-footed racers are
booked for the next event, the Hamline
stakes. A hasty glance at the list would
indicate that Corrigan'S Huron should
win the race. But, even in good form,
he will have no walkaway. Ireland'S
Newton is great gOer, and ought to be
able to make the distance, mile and
three-eightns, in very rapid time. Some
Of the other good ones are Lillian Beat
rice, Ceyerton, 70 Tambien, Emperor
Regent and Carlsbad.
The Twin City Merchants handicap
has the greatest field of the meeting,
siXty-five. In the list are noted some of
the old campaigners. There are Senior
lta, Come to Taw and Ed Hopper among
the fast siX-year-olds. The good ones in
the five-year-old class are Tulla Black
burn and Princess Limo. OF the four
year-olds probably the best are Yale '91,
Donatello, Eli Kindig and Semper FL
dele. The three cracks in the three
year-oId list are Yo Tambien, Huron
and Herald, and one of this trio ought
10 be rapid enough to win the race.
In the Twin City exposition stakes

with old Prince Fortunatus the best
known of the list. Jim O'Brien's Long
shot is also one whose name is not I'M
favorably known to turf history the past
three years. Innocence and Come to
Taw are another good pair of siX-year
Olds in this event. Other very fast ones
in the race are Tulla Blackb burn. Huron.
Yale '91, German, Donatello, Eli Kin
dig, Lillian Beatrice, Hispania and
Princess Limo.
Forty-six horses are IN for the st.
Paul stakes. Robespierre, in good form,
is one of the likeliest runners in the
list Of thoro9ghbreds. He will, how
ever, have to fight 1t out with Van Bu-
rem, 70 Tambien, Donatello. Eli Kin
dig, Ed Hopper, Glockner and half a
dozen other ''ghosts of the track"
All the other events are among the
untried horses, all being two-year-Olds.
For the Ladies' stakes there are thirty
entries, for the Carnival stakes thirty
five and for the Minneapolis stakes
forty. The fields are made up from
some of the best stables of the country,
and good contests in all of them are as
sured. The complete list of entries for
the eight stake events follows:
