E. Madden sold last week to W. r.

new owners silks in the opening event
this afternoon and amazed all hands
by bearing the colors down to defeat.
White Hackle was looked upon as sure
winner and wise ones" took one to four
for their white slips. The only excuse
that can be made for White Hackle is
that he hates mud and heaven knows
there was plenty of it. White Hackle
was out tin-canning in front for the
frst half and then Col Eennie plodded
past him and rolled under the wire a
length and a half to the good.

stable and for Schuyler Parsons. had a
pretty good day. thank you. Little Will

of his employers. In the Catskill selling
