SANTA ANA.

The Scene Of a Notable Horse Sale.
Court Notes.
SANTA ANA, Feb. 1.-THE air was full
of horse talk yesterday in this city, for
horsemen were here from all parts of
Southern California, to attend the auc-
tion sale OF standard bred horses at the
Plaza ranch. The sale was not sue
cess, for the horses were in very bad
condition and bidding was light. How
ever, Mr.. Willets has decided to hold
these sales annually, at a more oppor-
tune season.
1t was announced yesterday that Silk
wood, the great PAGER, would again be
put into training and go for record this
year. Knowing ones in this county
always had serious doubts that the
black beauty was to 60 into retirement,
and SO the announcement did not create
any surprise. 1t ia safe enough to say
that the horse will not only be driven for
a record but will also be seen in races
during the coming campaign.
Much is expected at the races here
next season. Many enthusiasts are urg
ton give a three days spring race meet
ing. There is little doubt but that such
meeting could be successfully held in
this city, for with the number of race
horses now in the county we could hold
a pretty fair meeting should no outside
horses enter.
Oddwood, the 2-year-old PAGER owned
by s. A. Goldatein of this city is young
ster that much is expected of in the near
future. He ia the son OF Silkwood,
2:07h, and his dam ia Ricetta, the great
race mare, now in Los Angeles. There
are many other youngsters coming on
that promise well, and some world
breaking records may be looked for the
coming season.
