Mr. JMoreo's hoy horse Perino, an animal that onco showed timo down in tho thirties, frotted with the colty for one heat. Aftor two ineffoctunl starts, tho Lhros wero sont away for tho firat hoat. The banker's nag broke at the very com- mencement, and, being young and inexperi- enced, could not be got donn until tho othera woro far nhend. The raco between Tod and Povine dgwn the back strotch and around tho corner Whs a vory protty ono, tho horsea being neck and neck ol the time, and go- ing ot tholr best, Dovino dropped off going around on the lome- strotch, aud consequontly Foley's property won casily Ly over a length in 2:493¢. Tho timo aatoniehod Tom moro than anybody else, as ko imagined the colt's best gait to be 2:50, The ro- sult of the first hont, howover, proved that tho animal is ono of tho best aud most promising of our local trottors. He made the sccond heat in 2:443¢, and ngain dofonted tho banker's horae with eago, Tho Iatter made two or threo wild broals, but still managed to_ get around in 2:48. Tho third hoat was won by Tod by sovoral longth in 2:433¢, which ia romarkably good time for tho third mile for a young aud green horso, The spoctators prophecied a gaod record for Tod in the fall, and ho was removed to his stall, He is ono of tho squarest, most _reliable, and withal most_stylish, horse at tho Park to-day, and will undoubtediy hold his own among 2:35 trottera it nothing happens to him. The bankor’s horso is o good one, but ho nceds more practico and training, 2 AN INPIOVEMENT in the arrangements on the track is the romoval of the old Judges' siand from botween the run- ning and trotting tracks, which was done yoster~ duy aftornoon by Mr. Josoph Cairn_Simpson, who is making preparations for {he coming mooting in a thoroughly and masterly way, The stand Las boen placed outside of the outer track fonco, ot the rear of tho ealoon, and will be flvon over to pool selliog and buying, This is he proper place for the suctioncors and thoir patrous, It is close enough to the track, and at tho sume time sufliciontly far away from whero thio main body of the speotators will slt to save it from tho oxecrations of those poople who ad- mire horso-racing, but nover bet on it. The viow of the track from all tho stands is now on- tiroly unobatructed. DEXTEN'S DESTINED DIVAL. The Hopkinsville (Ky.)
