endeavor to have every spring and fall
inaugurated, for profit to the members,
but to develop and promote tho horse In
terest OF Virginia. and keep pace with our
nelghboring States.
These meetings should also attract a
large number of visitors, and among them
customers for our merchants, as all the
railroads will sell round-trip tickets at
reduced rates
There will be two trotting or pacing
events each day. and the purses offered
are quite liberal. Seventy horses have
been entered, among which will be found
such well-kpown race horses as Queen
Gothard, Red Rover. Orphan Boy. YER
linda b., Kolena, Nellie Afford, Budd Do
bic. Rebus. and the great Lena HILL There
will also be eight running events during
the four days meeting, five OF which are
for horses used habltually under the sad
die, with gentlemen riders. and three
for track horses and jockeys. IL Is be-
lieved that sixty or seventy running
horses will be here, as several we'll
known stables have already arrived.
Another pleasing feature Is that ladies'
will be admitted without charge. which
should cause the friends of the associa-
ton to bring their wives and sweethearts.
The First Virginia Regiment Band has
been engaged for the meeting. and will
doubtless sustain the reputation which
they have acquired for fine music. a
squad of police will be present each
day, as well as number OF county
officers, who will maintain the most per-
feet order
