| SAN JOSE. Sept. 27.-This afternoons
racing furnished very fair sport and the at
/ tendance was much larger than is usual on
i a second day The weather was very
warm and the track fast.
Nearly all the principal trotting-hOrse
men have arrived at the track and were in
! evidence on the streets and at the track,
where large contingent of San Francisco
sports came in on the morning train, and
! kept the booksellers busy.
News was received during the day that
the celebrated thoroughbred horse Judge
/ McKiDstry had been shot owing to having
! broken his OFF foreshOulder, and general
regret was expressed at the circumstance.
| de was the sire of The speedy and game
! little mare EsperanZs and other good ones.
THE CALL selected two winners out Of
the three races.
Maud NJ, the crack little Anteeo mare,
again showed her gameness and stamina by
winning the special trot after five fighting
! heats with Colonel McNasser, splendidly
driven by Andy Mcdowell. She proved the
truth Of the Eorseman's old adage, "a
| good horse is always worth following"
The double balloon ascent and parachute
! drop by Professor Fiiz Ray and wife
| proved great success; both aeronauts
alighted without injury outside the fair
grounds
Tomorrow the grand stock parade will
surely draw a large attendance from all
around the district, who Will doubtless
! swell the crowd at the races in the alter
noon.
