Next race was district running, three fourths of a mile dash, for 

 graded horses. It closed with six entries; four reported as starters, 

 and were put in the pools. Woodberry sold favorite, bringing ten 

 dollars, Dottie Dimple seven, Otto K and Eclipse bringing five as a 

 field. When called the knowing ones seemed to make the black filly 

 the winner, which rapidly reached the crowd, for all were eager to 

 buy her at twenty dollars to fifteen for all the rest. Enough betters 

 had confidence in the bay stallion's blood to back him, and it proved 

 to be a money making race, at least, for the pool sellers. 



The horses seemed to understand that no foolishness would be tol- 

 erated, and they got a good start. Dottie Dimple proved herself a flyer, 

 winning by a length, in 1:19, Woodberry second.

The backers of the mare were overjoyful, her rider being lifted from 

 his feet by the admiring and successful betters. 



The third and last race for the day was a two-mile running race, a 

 dash, free for all. Six entries closed the race, but Maj^ D and Ella 

 Doane failed to appear; their owners being satisfied with their efforts 

 at San Jose, remained at home. Klipspringer being lame, but three 

 starters appeared. Grismer was recognized at once as a winner. He 

 won the dash as easily as he sold in the pools, having brought thirtj^ 

 dollars to twelve dollars for the other two. Time, 3:422.

SIXTH DAY. 



The first race was trotting, for district horses, 2:40 class. Four 

 entries, and all starters, Rose's Don Carlos, as usual, being a favor- 

 ite, selling for twenty dollars, to twelve dollars to all the rest. After 

 a heat nothing could be had against him, and but little interest was 

 taken in the race. Running seemed to interest the majority.
