 Selma. October 2S. John Gallagher, a young and we'll known horse trainer reached Selma last night and will spend the winter months st the Selma Driving Park training string of pacers and trotters.
 MT. Gallagher did not bring his sta ble with him but 1t is expected to ar rive here within the next few days. MT Gallagher is we'll known in Selma and he was heartily greeted.
 For several winters MT. Gallagher came to Selma as assistant trainer un- der Ben Renfck. About two years ago he left Selma and took charge of q stock farm near Philadelphia where he remained until the past spring when he took a string of trotters and pacers to campaign through the Western race circuit
 The season was successful for him and nearly every horse in his stable proved a winner and made expenses.
 Mir. Gallagher is one of the youngest drivers on the race track but he Is rapidly becoming known by those who race horses. as steady and good driv- CT and during the next season he will probably campaign through the Grand Circuit.
 Mir. Gallagher Is the first trainer to arrive at the Selma track this fall. Other trainers with their pacers and trotters are expected to reach here within the next month and 1t is thought that more fine horses will spendl the cold months at the Selma Driving Park this winter than ever before.
