Poorly Attended Charity Race Matinee Furnishes Some Good Exhibitions for Small Crowd-Local Horses Feature


 Dorothy B. an Arizona colt, driven by Butler, ambled away with the All Arizona Pace yesterday in two heats after having finished so cIose with !1tta Green that the judges decided to call it no race. Dorothy vas a fine little mare all afternoon and per formed r"ore like an aged pacer ttan merely Q well trained three year old. Her time was 2:3412 in the final and deciding heat, and the last half was paced in extremely fast time.
 All her compadres but two and those were com madres-dreV out be- fore the first heat was calle'i, leaN- ing Ettd, Dorothy and Myrtle E. to compete for the state honors. Starter Adams had a bit of fuss getting the colts off in a bunch, but on the third trial, he let them go in fair order. Myrtle had just been brought from pasture and was not as fine as she out to have been. This left the other two way ahead and going it for all
  race from the half, for the two eager fillies tore along like machines, neck even with neck. and their legs fly ing like so many well oiled pistons. In big swirl of dust they rounded tfe corner into full view, swept down the quarter stretch seesaWing first d lip ahead and then a short nose be- hind. Knowing it to be close race the judges crowded into line with the wire. and when they rose as the fil- lies sped by they all said dead heat
 Dorothy. a pretty slender brown colt won her next heat after an el- bow to elbow race in which both drivers used the lash lightly but earnestly Myrtle B. was .distanced in this heat The third trial was nearly as close as the others, but the bigger Etta Green showed visible fatigue after the grilling pace and slipped back just a little-enough to lose her the heat and the chance at the race.
 There were number of Phoenicians who missed a right good little treat yesterday afternoon by staying away from the racing matinee There were mighty few people out, but those who did attend, were we'll satisfied with the exhibition.
 The first race was called at ? 30 by Starter J. C. Adams It was a free for all pace with five entries, among the best steppers in the stables The whole list was out for the bell, the horses prancing in their sulkies with the joy of being in a real race. None of them have been on the track for anything but work outs since the race last fall at the state fair Airault, who had drawn the pole was the favorte.
 They got off well punched and stuck to the quarter King Daphne driven by Jack Frost, showed early tendency to lead and together with the pole horse drew ahead from the rest. It was a close race clear tt the stretch where the regal one step- ped up and left Stearns' nag wei back The time was just what was predicted at the stables, 2:23 King Daphne repeated the perform ance almost exactly in the second heat, winning from Airault with tho l rest of the field in the middle of the | dust cloud Time for this race was 1 2:15, which was a surprise The las | quarter was stepped in fast time | at tWo-eight clip. only fraction of a second slower than his ma | jesty's record. 2:O7A.
