A bunch of some eight or ten
race track followers, commonly
rs touts. infested the local
Thursday. In some manner
the report spread that they were
pickpockets. Whether this theory
had any foundation or not IS not
but at any rate they were
obnoxious to the management and
were elected rs soon as pointed out
to the police. 1t is alleged that
one or two were caught in the act
of dipping for dough.
In the second heat of the half
mile running rae the boy who rode
May German was severely censured
Dy the Judges for his riding. The
had some trouble in getting
the horses of each time. When
the second heat was sent out May
German was two lengths in the renr
Of the other two starters and the
boy promptly pulled the mare and
cantereer her around the track. In
the third heat he gave her a good
ride and finished a length behind
Lady Mckinley, the winner.
Through misinformation n num-
her of errors crept into the Tele-
grams account of the winners in
the horse show. The list as taken
