ARIZONA RACE HORSES
A Fast Bunch now En Route After
 Eastern Money.

A carload of fine Arizona horses left here Thursday morning for the east. Most of them are race horses and 1t is
 expected that before the summer Is over there will be some Arizona record smashing back in the states. There
 were eight horses in the car, five of them being from the J. C. Adams stables. The other three were William Mayors Arizona Bess, Charles IekeI's Maydello and Dr. DuffieId's handsome black driving horse which he is send ing back to his father at Fort Madison. Iowa.
 The Adams horses will go direct to Libertyville, ILL, and J. K. Wheat who will have charge of them this summer left on this mornings train for that point. The horses will remain there until the last week in July when they will be taken to Detroit. Alter the De- troit races they will enter the Great Western circuit racing at Freeport Davenport, Decatur, Gaiesburg, liam lin, Minn. Milwaukee, LIbertyvilIe and Springfield. III. They may be taken from there to Lexington and Memphis or they may be brought home. depend- ing on circumstances. Mir Wheat will drive them and if he don't do some hard pushing on the lines there will be disappointment here in Arizona
 Arizona Bess, MT. Mayors horse Is al promising trotter and has a trial speed of about 2:20. Maydello, the black trotter sired by Boydello and owned by MT. 1ekel, will be driven during the summer by~.Cs4sE. =Mickens. Thest, two horses will be taken from the car at Hutchinson, Kas., and will race over Kansas and Missouri during the sum mer
 MT. Adams five horses are as fo;- lows:
 Sally Pointer. by Sky Pointer. bi oth- CT of Star Pointer who was the inst horse in the country to pace a mile in less than two minutes. Her first dam is by Mckinney and her second dam is half sister of Lou Dillon Her third dam is the dam of Lou Dillon. There is probably no better bred horse in the United States and if blood counts for anything Sally ought to be counted in the fast set.
 Bystander is the next in the list. He was sired by ZoIoch who was a son of Mckinney, Zoloch having pac- ing record of 2:O9A.
 Custer, the third horse, was sired by Sidney Dillon, tke sire of Lou Dn- Ion. As to her dam, "her name was Maude" by the noted stallion Nut wood. Maude has two colts who go better than 2:30
 All three of these horses are without d record but there is a well founded belief that they can make one. By- stander has won a matinee event in 2:13%, and Sally Pointer and Custer have each shown trials better than 2:15. Bystander and Sally Pointer are both entered in the S5,0OO chamber of commerce stake at Detroit and one of them will surely be started but which one has not been decided upon
 Custer is being sent east not for the purpose of racing but to have the fin- ishing touches put on his education He will be trained and accustomed to travelling around in fast company with the idea of being raced next year when il is expected he will do some sensa- tional work
 One other pacer in the Adams string is Billy A. by Fast Nation. Billy has a record of 2:17 1-4 and has shown ability to step mile in 2:10.
 Charlie M. is the only trotting horse MT. Adams has sent east. He was sir 1 ed by Silver Brook and has a record or i 2:22 IA and won a matinee race fn ? 20 If
 This little bunch of horses ought to ! do something to make Arizona what 1, already is, only in another | way. Incidentally it will be advertis- ing all through the middle and middle | western states one of the things the | climate of the Salt river valley is good | for.
