Horsemen will note that Mr. Praught is putting on a race meet at his Riverside track Oct. ober 9th. Previous races at this track have been very enjoyable affairs and no doubt this one will prove equally so. It is for purses and not a matinee as those previ. ously held.

Adios by Hal Dale, set a new world's record for- a two-heat pac. lng race at Lexington, Kentucky. last Wednesday when he won both heats of the Free.For.All Pace in identical times of 1:08 1.4. In previous FroeJor-Allk he had quite often won a heat but even. tual honors always went to King's Counsel. On this recormbreaking occasion King's Counsel had to be content with 2.2. The record that Adios supplanted was that of Directum I. made in 1914. His heats were 1:56 and 2:00. Like King's Counsel he is a four-year. old and is owned by Thomas Tho. mas of Cleveland, Ohio, and was driven by Frank Ervin.

times to learn t t William (Bill) Cruickshanks died as the result of an accident early this week. Mr. Cruickshunks was of a most friendly disposition and was s noted figure at race meets throughout the Maritimes for years. Last season Bonnie Bud- orl, owned by him. was the lead- ing race winner of the Msritinacs. Mr. Cruickshanks had silo been interested in other horses. On every hand expressions of sym. pathy are heard for his wife and famiy and on behalf of horse. men friends we tender our deep sympathy in their great loss.
