ON THE RACE TRACK.
Fair Grounds Results.

New Orleans, February 23.-Two new
track records were made today at the
Fair Grounds. The famous classic of the
Louisiana turf the Bush cup handicap,
at two miles and a quarter, was won
by Marvin Neal in 1885, which is one
fifth of a second better than the previ-
Gus record. Marvin Meals victory marked
the first time in the cups history that
"a local owner has won it, Louis f. Piper
being the lucky man and making a pretty
presentation of the cup to- his wife, in
the presence of the grand stand. In the
third race st. Valentine, also a local
horse, clipped one-f1fth of second off
the track record.
