Show In Prospective. ; The city horsemen were busy yesterday, yes-terday, in making arrangements for a great running race to come off here next May. It is intended to offer a purse ol $10,000, the race to be half, mile heats, free to all runners. The owners of several of Utah's flyers have signified their willingness to enter their horses and also to put money into the purse. One gentleman has already oilered $1,000, another $5u0, and others similar and smaller sums, which is strong evidence that the race will come oil'. And we understand that in case such a race should be made, there arc three or four Califor nia horses, and two or three from the East, that will be brought here for the occasion. We sincerely hope the gentlemen who are working in the matter will be successful in getting up the race. |
