Derby Day Tuesday.
Derby day Tuesday will be one Of the
great days Of the week and is full Of
brilliant prospects. Not all Of the interest
Is to be centered in the horses, altho
they will be the main attractions: the
various events being planned to exhibit
fully all OF their qualities of speed ana
form. The vehicles and all of the ac-
cessories sof riding and driving will come
in for a large share of attention as we'll

drivers. No event is being regarded with
more Of expectancy than the hve-mile
automobile dash, for which many Of the
leading chauffeurs have entered their ma
chimes and will give thrilling speed
exhibition. Amonk the novelties sure to
be of unusual interest are the drag hunt
with hounds and the cross-country riding.
