Secretary r. F. Jones, of the Mime
apolis Driving club, has seen large
number of race meetings in his time,
but after the present meeting at Mime
haha driving park is over he will have
the chance of saying, if his modesty
will permit, that he has never witnessed
anything SO complete in every detail as
the one which he has nodded and ar
ranged for.
Today will be the opening meeting of
the Minneapolis Driving club at the
park, with some of the most interesting
and exciting events which it has been
the pleasure of lovers of racing to ever
witness in the Northwest. Over two
hundred of the finest bred horses in the
United States, together with some from
Canada. will compete for the $4,000 III
purses offered by the management of
the club. Each and every day there
will be scores of horses battling in
right royal manner for the prizes, and
it is even expected, from the horses
which will compete, that there will be
some record smashing.
Today there will be the trotting race
by the $50 class for purse of $500, the
2:20 class pace for purse of $500, and
the fast trotting race for horses of the
2:l4 class for purse Of 81. 900. During
the afternoon the Fort Smelling band,
Third infantry, U. S. A., will render
various selections, the band to be in at
tendance every day during the meeting.
In addition to the programme as given
there will be number of trials of speed
by some of the fastest colts without
records ever witnessed in Minneapolis
or st. Paul. Each of the owners of the
entered trotterS and PAGERS will test the
speed and endurance of full-blooded
colts which have never yet appeared in
any events, and they will be seen during
the afternoon on the track speeding
along before pneumatic sulkies.
Every possible convenience has been
provided by the management of the
club for the guests and visitors who
will be present during the meeting.
Those who have horses will find COM
petent men to care for them during the
entire afternoon, and ali that will
be necessary for the owners to
do will be to turn the animals
over to these hostlers and
new and comfortable club house, which
has been constructed for the use of the
members of the club and their friends,
will furnish every possible convenience.
There are reception rooms for both la
dies and gentlemen and a general recep-
| ton room, dressing room for the la
| dies and buffet for the gentlemen.
! The second story, or balcony, has been
fitted with seats, and there will be room
| there for all of the club members.

| and is prepared to accommodate over
| 5000 every. day, while there are also
bleaching boards and other conven-
| fences for seeing the races. There Will
! be but one admission fee charged, and
| that will be at the gate. Every person

| titled to every possible thing to tend
| toward pleasant afternoon. Wide
