The kite" race track at Inde-
pendence is a thing of the past. The
Bulletin-Journal says: The curtain
has been rung down on what is
probably the last racing act at the
kite" track. A. R. Campbell is
converting the amphitheatre into
big hay and cattle barn. The seats
have been removed and the shed
stalls will be moved up against it on
all sides, making'a building 80 by
25O feet. The structure whose walls
have echoed to the cheers of enthusi-
astic thousands as the kings and
queens of the track rushed past, will
now resound with the deep-throated
bellowings of Mr. Campbell.s royal
blooded Herefords. The last chapt-
er is written. We have only to add
"finis." Let us commune with sent
iment for moment, while we tend
erly lay wreath upon the grave of
the departed glories of the old "kite." "
