FAIR SIZED CROWD ATTENDED
THIRD RACE MEET OF THE
SEASON IN HOT SPRINGS
Another race meet is history in Hot
Springs and everyone is satisfied that
the Black Hills Racing and Stock
Growers Association can handle these
affairs as we'll and perhaps a little
better than most any other place in
the west. This is the third meet of
the year and altho the attendance
was not as large as it might have
been, it was very good and the Asso-
citation is to be congratulated on the
success of the two days meet held last
Friday and Saturday. The Black
Hills towns were fairly we'll repre-
sented and they witnessed some of
the best racing that could be seen
here have all raced on the big circuits
any where. The horses that were
and most of them shipped from here
to Cheyenne, Lincoln and other places
where some of the best racing in the
country is to be found. A glance at
the results of the races and the time
made in each event over half mile
