THE TURF. AN ATTRACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT in the shape of a trotting matinee will be offered by tho muungers of the Dexter Park Club on ‘Thursday afternoon. Budd Doble and his famous mare, Goldsmith Maid, arrived in the city from Bt. Louls yosterday, aud as thay will romain during tho week, it has boon decided to show them off in conmection with a free- for-all raco for & purse of £5,000. It is bolioved that the race will attract o large audienco this time, owing to the postponemouts which wero made necessary by tho wenthor at tho closo of tho recont meoting, and which pro- vonted a groat many people from attending. The other horses in the race will be Mr. Goldsmith'a oy golding Gloster and Mr. Faweott's chostnut stallion Baghaw, Jr., which were tho opponents of tho Maid in tho last freo-for-all raco at Dox- ter Park, It is probablo that Mr. Geodrich's Bodino will also Lo entered, Bashaw is said to be a beiter horse. now than ever he was, his Isst raco mnot having affocted bim in the lenst.

Thia raco, if it can be mado, will attract fiunernl sattontion, a8 tho horaes are evenly matchod, and very fast.

To ths Editor of Fhe Chicago Tribune : Sin: As this is tho senson for sporting, o word of caution and warning to sportemen by an old hantor may not bo amies, Nover allow the hammer of the lock to rest on the cap, but keop it at half-cock; it ia much enfor. Never take hold of a gun by the muzzlo and draw the gun to you ; for, in doing this, and o8- pecially if tho linmmer 1s down on the cap, the hommor is vory apt to como in contact with somothing, and bo raised enough soit slaps down on tho cap, and you are shot. One-half or more of all the accidonts happon in this way. And not to nllow your gun, whon loaded, to bo pointing towards yourself or comrades, when out, is suroly tho safost way. 14, Mr. Editor, this advico will bo tho moans of suving one lifo,—and I have no doubt it may many,—then yon and I will be sufiiciently re- wne won by Pronkrase, Followoraft, and Galway. warded, Truly yours, 3.
