The third race on the programme was
pronounced by men who have been fol-
lowing the circuit from California 10
be the prettiest four-horse race they
have Witnessed. In the first place the
start was perfect and the horses ran
the first quarter neck and neck, and at
a right smart clip. Before they reached
the half they were paired. Bill Howard
and Highland Ball taking the lead.
Then Wenoma pulled In with them and
Little T G. advanced until the four were
again neck and neck. In the nome
stretch Little T G made second place
and so good a second hat when the
horses ran under the wire there was
hardly a half a nose between him and
Bill Howard, the winner. Highland
Ball was a length behind. Time, l:OS1a.

for the rest of the meeting and thrown
Sheppard and Glover in for $40 apiece

ce~asingly and delaying the game, h
he was able TO get the horses off. Then
n was a rood start. Midas took the
lead with Masoero and Doubtful fol-
lowing and the others punched to-
