RACES INTERESTING.
Ideal weather brought out large at
tendance at the matinee races of the as
sociation held on saturday and although
the track was heavy "a spots the horses
showed up we'll The event as well as the
surprise Of the card was No. B. IN which
Harry j. stoeclSie's Florence stanton,
John Hartman's Donmore. w. b. AUS
Inns Martha B. and the BroolSdale FARMS
Little Lady were the starters. Probably
two-thirds Of those present We're under
the impression that there would be moth
ing to the event bat Florence Stanton
and Donmore. In this. however. they were
mistaken. as Little Lady with Thomas
Barley handling the ribbons, took the
first and second heat and the race. The
steady work of the mare showed that she
IS one to be feared under any clrcum-
stances.
Donmore. driven by Dr. Mahaffy, was
not ia his usual form and broke badly
IN each of the heats. In the first heat, af-
ter seven attempts TO score had been
made before they got away, Donmore
went of his foot four timos In the mile
and came under the wire IN a gallon. Lit
lie Lady was second and after a lengthy
consultation OF the rules governing the
association she was awarded first POSI-
flon and Donmoro was set back to fourth
place on account Of repeated breaks Dom
more also lost a boot and cast a Shoe In
this heat
In tho final heat OF this event Donmore
acted badly again and cast another shoe
after having been rc-shod Little Lady
held the pole throughout The milo. on
the home stretch Florence stanton. driven
by Or. Envos made heroic effort to
take the race but broke nt the wire.
In event No there were but two
starters. Mr. McKeo's Jack Gilman and
