A CHANCELLOR c. B. MURPHY.
Joe Shea Has Horse That He Wants to
Race Annie Wilkes for 500 a Side.

For dong time Cornelius B. Murphy
has claimed that his mare, Annie Wilkes,
has got more speed than a certain colt
which Joseph P. Shea proudly owns. Each
afternoon during the present sleighing
both horsemen have been on the avenue
holding the ribbons over their favorites
But it takes two willing men to make a
race. Though Murphy will tell you that
1t is Shea's fault, and Shea will tell you
that the blame rests on Murphy's shout
ders, the fact remains that the two horses
have yet to trot decisive heat.
Wednesday afternoon Shea stated to the
representative of the Spy on the avenue
that he was about sick of all this talk. He
wished Murphy was half as anxious to
meet him as he was to trot with Murphy
Then the matter could be settled one way
or the other. He then made the following
proposition:
Il will race Connie Murphy and his
mare for 500 or any part of it, just as
soon as the sleighing becomes fairly de-
cent, Or, if Connie prefers, we will wait
while and trot on the dirt. Whatever
suits Connie will be agreeable to me. All
1 want is a horse race and If Murphy
comes my way he will surely get one.
