ner in this race in four heats, she winning the first. Sensation 

 came back to Buffalo in August and beat Camors, «"udge Ful 

 lortOQ, Gloster and Jim Irving in five heats for the purse of 

 $20,000. Camors won the first and second heats in 2m. 20^s., 

 2m. 21|3.. but Sensation got the other three and won the race. 

 But the result might have been difiTerent had it not been for the

 Mace was attacked with violent illness, congestion of the liver, 

 and was for some days almost at death's door. He got up out of

 of September, he beat Sensation and Camors again, in thre«
