all sorts of tricks, aud ye merry old
clown with hie funny painted face and
grotesque garb and the innumerable
wonderful things to Bee? Of course it
does. Do you remember how you'- heart
beat, aud how you ionged for the time
to come when the circus would arrive,
and after counting the weekB and days
and hours the time arrived and the
"greatest show on earth" appeared?
Was that not one of the happiest days
your life? Without doubt it was. The
man muBt be blase indeed who cannot
associate his first circus with the happy
days of youth. Time has passed since

Tho first matinee of Tho Dalles Driv
ing Association was held yesterday af
ternoon and was a decided success. All
the business hollies closed promptly at
1 o'clock, and by the time the first speed
trial was under way there were any
where from 800 to 10C0 people on the
grounds.
Tho D. C. A A. C. brass band dis
coursed excellent music and pleasantly
filled up the inevitable intervals be
tween the races.
The entries for the first contest, trot
ting, best three in five, were Dr. Fergii
snn'ji Nelly Bly; J. P. Mclnemy's Fan
ny, and K. 6, McCoy's Dick. Nelly
Bly won tho two first heats and roce.
Time, l.ol and l.ol.V
The interval between the two heats
was enlivened by nn exhibition of Jud
Fish's splendid driving team, which
made the round of the Hack in 1.3S and
the mile in 3.15.
The second roce was a splendid con
test between Fred Fisher's Edmond S.,
II. L. Kuck's Freak and Grant Mays'
'Mack. John Roth, of Kingsley, was
permitted to enter the contest with his
unnamed trotting stallion; but after
scoring with the rest boUi disappeared
from view and, unlike the tabby cat in
the song, never came back. Mack won
the first heat in 1.24, but withdrew from
the contest in the second heat on ac
count of having cast a shoe. The second
heat was won by Edmond S. ; time 1.26.
The third heat by the same; time 1 25.
Not the least interesting of the con
tests was the pony race. There were
three, entries Henry Heabner, Ora
Bngley and Ted Seufert, the latter on an
Indian pony not much bigger than a
Shetland Sheltie. It was n quarter
mile race and the pony ran like light
ning in spite of the fact that Bagley
crowded the pony and ite rider against
the pole in a manner that it was a won
der didn't re?ult disastrously for one or
the other of them. The race was given
to Ted Seufert. and he not only earned
it, but richly deserved it even If he
hadn't earned it.
The most interesting race of all waB
the pacing contest between L. A. Por
ter's Solo and W. H. Hobsou's Prim
rose. Solo won the first heat; time 1.15;
The second heat was won by Primrose ;
time 1.12, and the third heat and race
by Solo; time 1.11.
One of the moFt interesting events of
the matinee was the exhibition of three
superb 2 year-old colts, the gets of the
famous stallion, Multnomah, which died
last year. Three handsomer animals of
their class the eye never gazed on, and
the Bight of them was worth the whole
price of admission to the matinee. They
belong respectively to Messrs. D. V.
Poling, Frank French and E. C. Peaee,
of this city. i

this, consequently they are spending n
lot of money advertising, not only in the

Oregonian and Eastern papers. They
are not uf'iiid to branch out; they know
how to reach buyers, and this accounts
for the larue number of sales they have
made within the lust few mouths. They
get "results." They have clients who
