MAY ENTER HORSE
AT DOUGLAS RACES
Frank Graf Is Sizing Up the
Purses Offered,

DOUGLAS, June Especially
The Chamber Of Commerce yester.
day received a letter from Frank Graf,
the well known broker. stating that he
had a friend in Bisbee who is undei
the impression that he has a horse
that can run some. and wanted in
formation regarding the amount of the
purses and the regulations Of the races
to be pulled of in Douglas on the
Fourth of July.
He was informed taat there would
be two races, one a quarter mile race,
for COW ponies only, for a first prize OF
s65. and a second prize of $35; and
mother race, which will be a half
nile. free for all, for a first prize of
80, and a second prize of $50. He
ilso wrote the Bisbee horseman that
ne prizes in these contests were
small. owing to the fact that it had
been the intention of the committee
to make it just a home race between
local horses, and they did not wan,
any out of town fast stock entered.
He was given to understand, however.
that the Bisbee horse will be welcom-
ed to the list
The two horse races viii be two of
the attractive events on the program.
Every one likes to see a good horse
race, particularly a running race. The
country about Douglas has been full
of COW men with their horses for some
time, and they have been inquiring
into the rules and regulations for the
races. Judging from the number of
inquiries there are a lot OF of them
counting on being in Douglas on the
big day with their best horse to put
in the race. so that there win be plen-
ty of starters and keen sport in the
two events.
