Times Review: DR.. A. Il. Bal
ley's horse, Miss Sherwood, has made
a most remarkable record on the turf
this season. Competing in eighteen
races, she has won nine firsts, five
seconds, divided second and third
money once, one third, one fourth and
once outside the money. Last week
she took second money at both the
Viola and Gays Mills fairs, which
Vernon won, and Barney Mccoy took
third. One heat was paced in 2:15l.

Melvin Goodrich, while on the outside
the band entertained the PEG pie who

visitors. So large a number of cal
