an animated appearaHce' 1EuttelS anu
PAGERS, who have been in training for
some time on various tracks throughout
the State. are constantly arriving at the
track Already quite division OF the
harness brigade is on hand, a1d during the
sunny hours of the forenoon trainers and
drivers can be seen sitting in their bicycle
sulkies aud urging their steeds around the
course in hope of getting them in high
fettle for the opening days racing of the
Pacific Coast Trotting-horse Breeders
Association meeting.
The meeting opens on next Saturday,
and as many of the old-time methods. such
as the tiresome successiye-heat racing, have
been discarded for the dash system at
different distances, it promises to kindle
new interest in trOttlng events, and make
it one of the most important meetings ever
held here in the history of the trotting turf
Z. G. Pierce. who is experimenting mat
ters on the track for the association, was
kept pretty busy yesterday assigning stalls
10 the arriving trotters.
Heating and Ottnger's string arrived IN
the morning. Among the lot was that
well-knOwn PAGER Our Dick. by Gibralta-
dam by Black Hawk, who has a record OF
2:l0A Ouinger, a fiye-year-old trOtter, by
Nephew Jr. - dam by General Benton.
Ottlnger secured n record of 2:2l u as
four year Old, and will be remembered as
lower ng the ColoTS OF the Palo Alto pro-
duction, Peko. in the four-year-Oid stake
decided at Sacramento. There is a green
pacing mare years old by Dexter Prince,
whom Heating bought for a roadster, but
who showed enough speed to warrant
training for racing.
A six-year-tld by Phalas, called Menlo
PhalIas. with a record Of 2:27A, and the
well-known trotter Flora NJ and the pac-
Irr " hntI tarnT mai rtU nj
B. d. Phillips, are the most important of
the lot Flora NJ will be remembered as
the mare whom Phillips won $4,000 on in
one race a. the State Fair. The wealthy
Montana mining man did not have So much
luck with Laura B, for he was ruled off the
turf at the Oakland meeting for laying up
a heat with her. He has since been rein
stated.
John Wall is on hand with three-year-
old fly, and a four -year-old called An
tioch, by Antevolo- Mambrino Wilkes, with
a three-I ear-Old record of 2:26. The Sidney
FLY is entered in the free for all and the
Aspirant stakes.
o. Msrchaud of Oakland has two un-
tried three,-year- olds by To. son of Anteo.
One is a bay horse named Tfs and the
other brown mare named Lady ..
Frank Treanor ca me up from San Luis
Obispo with a trio of fair performers, be-
longing to P. II. Murphy and W. H.
Wardn of that town. They are Maud
Alameda, 2:24, a gray mare, wears, by
Gavota-Mary o; the black mare. Moro,
. :2634, aged. by Pasha; and the aged PAGER,
NJ ii II Kyle, by Athena.
There are several other minor strings
already at the track. but those OF Palo
Alto, +. Ii. Burke, James @. Fair. j. B.
Haggin, Vendome stock farm. Lee Shaner,
Jesse d. Carr, San Mateo stock farm,
Thomas Smith AMI others will not be on
hand until THURSDAY. 1t is expected that
more than 200 horses will be on hand
when the first lot that face the starter
commence to score.
The track. which was left soft for the
runners, is being looked after Dy William
Fiedwick. He is having it scrapej,
watered and packed, so fast time will be
probable.
Nearly every thoroughbred that raced at
the Bay District is now quartered at Oak
land, where Henry Schwa-tZ's TWO
mouths meeting will commence on June
q. A few of the horses went to Sacra-
mentO, where they are entered in the
stakes of the Capital City Turf Club.
Matt Storms string will not leave for
Brooklyn for several days, as four of the
two-year-olds are aiing. Phillips and
Ottinger's crack Wildwood and the spurter
Joe Cotton left for Chicago last evening
with Dan Miller's great filly Charmion.
Wildwood and CharmiOn will be a pair
hard 10 beat, and although all of the
best horses raised in the State are now on
Eastern tracks, it is safe to predict this
pair will score many sensational victories.
Wildwood is entered in all the big Western
handicaps. and he should have little
trouble winning couple of them.
Ottinger, Phillips and Trainer Davis are
kicking themselves because they did not
send the big brown SOB of Wildidle East,
in time to get ready for the Brooklyn
handicap. He was in at 105 pounds, and
not only does this trio of horsemen think
he could have beaten Diablo, hut MANY
other shrewd ones are of the same opinion.
Senator Leland Stanford has decided
not to make any more applications for reg
lstration to the Trnttns-hoIse Registry
Association. Other California breeders
have decided the same way. Although
they were all treated unjustly by the asso-
elallon. which many horsemen say is a
gigantic fraud, they are coming to the con-
clusion that records made against time
has been instrumental in running the trut-
tlnG-horse business. Have legitimate races
and then If records are secured they are
bound to DO recognized and considered.

circuit this summer and fail. At recent

at the conclusion that California as a

mares and stations to it.
