Mr. C.T. Oliver.
Anyone who might have been at all
skeptical as to the class and character
of attractions to be offered in Dorrii on
Railroad Day, May 15th, had better re
organise hi theory.
The committee on arrangements has
announced the probable program ol the
day ai follow! :
Parade at 9:30 a. m., followed by abort
ipeechet at the depot square. Baseball
game at 10 o'clock. Alter dinner will
come the horse racing, beginning
promptly at 1:30 o'clock. First, ball
mile dash, (ree for all, (our to enter
three to start; second, five-elgbtb mile
daah, four to enter, three to start; third
three-eighths mile and repeat, free (or
all; fourth, three-eighths mile dash, (or
saddle horses only.
Doubting Thomaaes, II any there be,
may be able to get a pretty good line on
what kind ol horses will be there from
th Information that op to date th fol
lowing have reported: Wm. Shook,
Dairy, Ore., horns Dick Rusher; Frank
York, Grant's Pass, horse Billy Brook
ward; Harry Allen Klamath Falls,
horse Evergreen ; Wm. McNalma, Moat
ague, horses Dr. Bborb, Iittl Jim,
Black Joe; Sy Kenyon, Shaata Valley,
with the (amona quarter horse, Dick
Mills', snd Montana Chief. Several
others are yet to be heard from and Neil
Sly of Dorrla will have hla Yanke Boy
and Pinto readr toblt tb high tfpots, as
well a the William Sly horse, Gold Bui
llan. The saddle bono races promise to be
among the best attractions of the day aa
a number of matched races ar to ba
pulled off st tbst tims. Tb J. F.
bones and thr Walter Bray and Chand
ler bone are to run.
Tber will be footrace and other
field events between time, and not a
dull moment all day long. Music will
be furnished by tb Klamath Falls
band.
In tb evening the celegrated Mong
Optra will give an entertainment at
Oliver hall which will be followed by a
dance. No palm will b spared to glv
visitor the time ol tbelr Uvea.
Railroad facilities ahould bo the vary
beat at that time aa th road will have
been In operation nearly a month.
