The Terre Haute races open Monday and starting judge, C. R. Duffin, will call the horses at 1:80 p. m. The first day's programme is very fine. There will be three fast races and the diving elks. The first item is the 2:20 class trot. Though 2:20 may be slow this will be a 2:10 trot or better, for it has in it horses to go that fast. There is Askey 2:08K who holds the lowest trotting record made this year Querist, who has won nine races this season, Louise Mc, a fine one, Ray Wilkes 2:14, the Terre Haute horse, and about thirty more entries. There ought to be twenty starters.

The 2:25 pace has several in it that can beat 2:10, and the 2:40 trot will be trotted as fast as 2:15.

On Tuesday is the 2:09 pace, in which is a beautiful lot of pacers, and the 2:13 trot, in which Pilatus 2:11%' and J. B. D. will be favorites, but there are others to makg them hustle.

Wednesday is "Elks' Day," when the benevolent Elks and ttfe diving Elks both appear, and the great 2.-05 pace will be seen. There will be a race. Either Searchlight 2:04X or Anaconda 2.*04)^ will represent California, Parker S., 2:063^, for Terre Haute, Frank Bogash 2:04#, for Fort Wayne, and half a dozen more for other places.

Thursday will be a tremendous day with Star Pointer 1:59K. beating his record, the •Sidewheeler" 15,000 stake being paced along about 2KM, and the elks diving. We take it that the Sidewheeler will be the race of the week.
