 time for first, between Velox, a chest
 nut stallion, owned by Chas. H. | Thomas and driven by Bonnell and

 tries were Milton Gear owned by J. i Depaister and driven by Walker, and 1 Cap Dawson, a beautiful chestnut stallion owned and driven by c. O.. i Nroman. Cap is a fine looking horse i but at the present time a mile seems
 to wind him considerably and he
 drags behind. Velox and Josephine
