The Horse Review states that Prince Hal, the local pacer of which great things were expected this summer, was only third in the free- for-all harness race held at Brandon, Manitoba, some ten days ago. Robert Lee was first, another horse second and the Bemidji pacer third, there being but three horses entered in the race. The time was some- thing like 2:15, which would indicate that the ‘“‘nags” were not going very fast. Just whether the ‘“Prince” has “shot his bolt” and is “all in” isa question that is much-mooted among .local horsemen. He certain- ly should be better than thirdin a pacing race where the fastest time was but little better than 2:15, pro- viding the track was even in fair condition. The animal will race at Winnipeg again, during July, and by that time he will be in better con- dition to be judged, as to his speed.

It is said that Gollmar Bros.’ circus is arranging to give an ex- hibition within the limits of the village of Nymore, and that “the| greatest show on earth” wants to appear in the suburban village on Thursday, July 1. the show was here yesterday, and he gave out the statement that he con- sidered the Bemidji license fee re- quired of a circus ($200) was too high, etc., etc. The circus may show in Nymore, of course, if the management so desires, but such action would be productive of doubtful results to the proprietors. However, the agent points out that the only place where the circus can show witkin the limits of the city of Bemidji is at the fair grounds, and that showing in Nymore is as near the center of the city of Bemidji as is the fair grounds, and that people will walk to see a circus just as well at Nymore as at the fair ground. Time will tell, as tothe agent’s claims. Later—The agent of the “great and only” could not get the concessions he asked for either in the city of Bemidji or the village of Nymore, and as a consequence Gollmar’s will not show here. This will give Bemidji’s Fourth of July celebration (on July 5th)full swing for the explosion of all patriotic stunts and a grand good time. No tears for the circus.
