makes six straight races that Captain
f Mack won first place in the free-for-all
: and during all these races the prett.
r sorrel never lost one single heat, h
winning every one in one, two, three
r order. The most remarkable feature
of these races is that not once durin;
t the whole season did Captain Macl
break or make a mis-step of any kind
r Probably no other animal that ha
raced this season can show such
n record. MIR. Zulauf was in two othe
races besides these six, at Norfolk AM
e Battle Creek. At the former plac
the horse paced only one heat, becom
o ing deathly sick in the second heat
which necessitated bis being aiken t.
S the barn where it was thought h
would die, but happily he gradual,
S became better. The supposition i
that the animal was doped. At tn
S latter place the horse finished secon
It place. Mr.. Zulauf and Captain Mac
have certainly made creditable rec
o ord this year and have advertised GU
town in splendid manner. The pee
IT pie of Pierce heartily congratulate MI
Zulauf on his successful racing season
