| The 2:2O pacing race, known as the
 Williams purse of sI000. best three in | five, was the big race of the day. IL
 was won in three straight heats by
 Queen Pomona, the little Fresno mare
 that has become a favorite since her arrival here a few days ago, and it is [ apparent to all that she should be
 travelling in faster company. She is a
 sure winner in anything behind 2:10.
 but the rest of the horses are pretty
 we'll matched. The time announcing apparatus was out of order. and the
 time for the quarters was not given yesterday. All they gave were the fin-
 ishes.
 In the drawing Cathrine got the pole, Queen Pomona second. Connors third, Pointer Star fourth and Monkey Mack fifth. The last named horse, driven by Shively made his first appearance this year, though he showed we'll last year. They secured a good start and Queen Pomona got the pole before the first quarter. keeping it the rest of the race. Cathrine pressed her hard near ly half way round. then Monkey pass ed Cathrine, finishing second in lively spurt that rather irrita:ec ,ne Queen, Connors fourth and Pointer Star last. Pointer Star played in hard luck in both the first and second heats. In the first he locked sulkys with Connors and lost time, and in the second heat the harness broke, Pointer dropped back. and was permitted to jog in be- hind the bunch. The time was 2:15 1-2.
 In the second heat the entire field was punched at the half mile except Pointer Star, which had the broken harness and was already falling back. As they ended the stretch 1t was seen the Queen would win and Monkey had all the signs of ending in second posi- tion. but just before the wire was reached, Connors stuck his head to the front and set Monkey back a number. The time was 2:13 1-4 the fastest Of the race,
 The third heat was rather close all the way round, but Queen kept in the lead. The finish was close but Monkey Mack was losing one position each race and this time dropped fourth, Pointer Star, which had only been in training for three weeks and having good luck in this heat, nosing ahead of him at the wire. Time, 1:14 1-4. The money went to Queen Pomona, Connors. Mon key Mack and Cathrine.
 Three Oh So colts, and a Tucson horse. Henry Lee. driven by sam Barkley. participated in the two-year- old pace. best two in three. for half mile. s250 and added money. The po- sitions were Prize Oh So. owned by w. w. Cook. Nettie Oh So. Mickens horse and Oh So Hamburger, a Hoghe steed and Henry Lee. Both heats were taken by Nettie Oh So in 1:i2 3-4 and 1:12 flat. Prize was second in the first heat and third in the second. Hamburger was third in the first and second in the second. Henry Lee held his place behind in both heats. with out a contest. but altogether it was a likely looking lot of colts. travelling at a rate better than 2:25 and coming in fresh.
 In the mile running race there were four entries. Sweetheart. satin Coat. The Fiddler and Jack McGin. It was called the Arizona Derby. and the purse was $500. Considerable money changed hands on this event. Sweet heart was the favorite and there were | against her. Her record of year ago and her fine showing the day before. not withstanding a bad start. were the secrets of her popularity and the un- doing of the man with the loose dollar in his pocket. She is long distance runner and the best was expected of Ter. But the game was all spoiled by Satin Coat. which made his first ap- pearance yesterday and bore away the money in 1:47 1-2. The Fiddler. which picked the money the day before. came in second and Sweetheart; could get no nearer than third. though at one time she led the bunch by a neck. and all finished close together, with Jack Me Gin some yards in the rear.
 The .elay race between Tom Rice with the Bartlett-Heard string, Worth Bellamy with the Kleinman string and Bud Burris with the Gibson string. was an exciting event and caused a great deal of amusement. Rice seemed to have the better horses and won the race. which was two miles with three changes. in 4:55. Bellamy made some lightning -changes and seemed for a while booked to win. but had bad luck on one Gndllkt anu SOt DtiiiHu- Alt came in second. Burris third. They will run again Saturday for the cham piOnship of the territory.
 The Roman race was run as usual. and the balloon made another ascen- sion almost as high as that of the day before and making a much more satis- factory landing. though he was out side the fence.
