From yesterdays race It seems that
Henry Mcdaniel lost good colt when L
c. Sloan claimed Mallory from him. Nc
Daniel IL man worth substance. excellent
breeding and reputation. 1t is not likely
that he was giving Mallory an easy race
the other day. The colt may not fancy SLOW
or muddy tracks. Though he ran third IN
mud first out he beat only very bad ones.
In his next race. on fair track, Mcintyre
gave him q very clever work" behind

gem of its kind. Then Sloan grabbed him
The way he cleaned Nearest yesterday was
impressive. Bonner, who rode him. is easily
fifteen pounds heavier than the scales show.

better.

Wateredge. who broke a leg yesterday
and was DESTROYED, was handed to John

OF Chicago. Bratton and Tichenor had
shared their last dollar in the days when
they wero fighting for fortune, and Bratton
believed everything Tichenor told him.
Tichenor recommended Wateredge as a
fast horse. but q bad actor. Bratton bought
him for 81 .750 After the sale he learned

Bratton was glad when Watefedge
bumped into Uncle Samuel and broke his
knee. He had him shot at once.
