are once again the Mecca of the Topeka
horsemen and well b1anketed. well
groomed and bandaged horses are there
in force.
The stalls. half full of nice, clean
straw and with the walls hung with
gay colored blankets. are looked upon
by horse lovers as almost sacred places.
The queens drawing room has not me
interest and awe for them that the
horse stall has.
The finest string on the grounds is
the Dallas stable with Willis o. Foote,
which includes John Nolan, who holds
the world record for year old trot-
ter at 2OS.
Nearly every horseman who visits
the grounds asks for John Nolan as if
they were warm friends. The present
tracks record of 2:1S is in danger and
the promises have been made that John
Nolan will lower it considerably. The
track is fast as bullet" the horse
men say, and unless heavy rains come
before next week it will be in condition
for record breaking time.
Many of the Texas horses have been
working on a mile track all winter but
between now and the races they will be
worked out and become used to the half
mile track. The grand stand has new
roof and has been thoroughly repaired
and Topeka will have an opportunity
next week of enjoying probably the
fastest races ever run on the track. The
gallopers have not arrived in any num-
