There is being agitated among many
the feasibility of holding a horse show
in this city, similar to New York and
Boston, not confined to professional
horsemen but gentlemen horsemen. One
gentleman who attended the New York
show and who knows Tom Lawson,
Eben Jordan and others intimately, is
sure that he can get them to cooper
ate and the coliseum is the place to be
selected. A movement will soon be
made in a quiet way among the horse
men and merchants to see if their CO.
operation can be had and then work
VIII be begun to further the plan. That
Worcester can have a horse show equal
to any in the country goes without
saying and all that is wanted is the
push. Gentlemen who are behind this
movement say that it will be a go.
Doctor Frost purchased at the Fasig-
Upton sale at Madison Square Garden
a two year old flly, Fruition, for which
he paid $3.50. Fruition is by Abdell and
IS bit understood yet she comes from
a prolific family and is entered in $45, 900
of stakes, including the $4,000 three
year old Kentucky futurity. The
career of Fruition will be closely
watched by horsemen hereabouts and it
is early yet to predict great things.
