A purse Of three hundred dollars in
each of the classes, with the best en-
tries that were ever made in this
state, and the largest number of en-
tries on any race track on the circuit,
with al opportunity of reduced rail
road rates, and to evening sessions Of
the best part Of the Chautauqua pro-
gram, the Devils Lake Trotting Asso-
citation is in position to give the
lovers Of fast horses three days OF the
best racing ever known in the entire
northwest. From the ti;le of the
opening races on July 4th, until the
closing one July 9th, there will be
the most closely contested field ever
seen on any track other than those Of
Brighton, Sheepshead and Coney
Island. In the 2:s0 pace class nine
entries have been made, some of them
old time favorites on northwestern
track and horses whose speed have
attracted attention fa1 outside the
borders of their own state. Riley
Wilkes, Rubert, Lady M, Baby Loo,
and Raglan, are names familiar to
the frequenters Of the race tracks ia
the northwest. In the 2:40 pace class
Bimidji Bell. Crimson King, Gordon
v, Sir William, and Little Bobs,

have passed under the wire carrying
proud record on more than one
track. u the 80 and s:15 pace,

/ to give interest to an extent even

where the entries a10 greater in num-
ber. Lady volna, Kemovine, Coma
W, Jenny Mack, Rubert, and John
q, are horses whose past work gives
ample assurance that the races in
which they are contesting will be of
the very highest class and of sufficient
interest to satisfy even the Kentucky
sportsman The Devils Lake Trot-
ting Association has been to consider
able expense in getting it's track in
order and procuring the horses which
are entered for this years races. They
are determined to make the Devils
Lake track second to d one in ths state
and equal to many of those which
have natioual regulations. The meet
Of this year will emphatically be the
best of the entire northwest, and will
be the equal Of those of many famous
tracks whose repntations are national.
From present indications the largest
crowd ever known in racing history
in this state will be present, and
unless changes should take place
between this and the opening. it will
b. the greatest meet ever held in this
state.
