THE RACER. RACILY
BY THE E; p . 0N7%.1 , 8v_ Jn."
- ine tWo races , are, -e of
man called the human / race, and the
horse race, which some consider inhu-'
man. The Indian race is nearly run., -
mill race or a race to a ".mill" occurs
when a prize fight is announced. Of all
the races that have'been upon the tapis
recently, the black race attracts the most.
of public attention. Congressmen make'
ape,eches upon %clergymen_ preach upon.'
it, and Wendell: „Phillips laready to bet,
his money on it.
I flatter myself that I know something,
about the horse race. • . I - had ,a paision
for lionie- reeling when' a lad, and used to
run horses with a neighbor's boy in
Tompkin's lane. How vividly do I re
call my lastrace. I rode the Governor's
grass-fed mare,,a • sorrel roan, If I re
member correctly, with two white] feet
in the forehead.. She was a little found
ered in one eye, but with the exception
of soinething like a wateinielonlfin each
knee,. her hitellect was unlinpated. j She
was sired by Canal" Horee, - and A.-.d by
every one who drove her. Neighbor's
boy rode a creamtcolored chestnut, with ••
a spring halt to harness '-On the home
•steetch.l wiiisc: neck and halfa
.teir encouraging
e oldniare,tuduher ,level heiit;by the
application of a•-corn • outter to, her aged
ribs. The limp which she had in he
% eye prevented her taking a clear view of
• a heap of Cobble stones in the lane, and
when she struck them there was a
stumble,„ a clatter of stones, horse-shoes
and old hones, and the • old mare • was
wrecked and no insurance.
I was picked up bleeding and insensi
ble, and I made the -remainder, of the
homestretchon a stretalier, coming in
under one blanket. The race was
decided in my favor. The judges al
lowed, although I was-a neck, behind
when thu'eld mare stumbled,- yet; as I
' -escaped; withoutniy neck being broken,
I came : nut a neck ahead. ' : '
'• Although . , exceedingly fond of the
races, I don't , attend them very often
now-amlays. My corpulency is too an-
They charge me double for my
ticket, and I can only get in through
the horse gate. Then the boys yell,
"Here comes the prize ox!" and insist on
me being trotted over the course to show
my points. -
._The first thing that struck me at a race
course—no, not the first thing,'-for that
was the shaft to a sulky, but the next
thing—was the open disregard of the
rules of the course. Although "public
stand" was painted upon a shed so:large
that the horse that runs may read, there
were the public sitting down. But the
public have to stand a great deal at Ibis
race course. I saw another shed label
ed "reporter's stand." I asked 'a re
porter what it meant,and he whispered,
`stand-treat." I stood it. . •
"Bidding off pools for the horses,"was
the reply I received when I inquired the
. meaning of an auction scene o n the
course.
. _
- I innocently inquired, if 'those pools
were horse ponds, but lie only gave me
a look of silent contempt. I finally
dropped fifty dollar note inane of
..
those
pools. IN o more "pool" for me.
Foot ra es are not popular as they once
were. P ople are too lazy to run now,
unless the run for office. I ran for a
prize once 'n, a foot race. I was not
quite as fa as lam now. I only weigh
ed four hundred and forty-seven pounds.
It happened thus: I was attending the
, Oneida County fait at - Utica. They got
i,. up aprize for ,ther - _-fastest runner. In
those days (this, was ; beforethe - onerous
tax or whisky) leuSCii-to indulge occa
sionally iii.tbat - _,Chp which makes us
cheer and bc an inebriate, asCowper has
it. "In a playful Moment I - asked the
boyis to get - Me tight and have fun - with
Me, and they took meat my , word. The
bar-keeper - asslated them by putting li
-piordn mykin.cocktail; while my back
was tprned, adding alcoholic stimulant,
to my whisky, and pouring decoctions
of malt into.my beer. I have since sus
. pcoted that tobacco was mingled ;with
my cigars, but on that point I inn not
quite clear.
Although it exhausted the contents of
nearly every bar on the grohnd to do it,
yet I got "full," and the fumes of the li
-plor arose from my stomach to my
,
. braliv as from an immense caldron,
causing me to behave in the most ridicu
lous and insane manner. I felt as ethe-
rial as a sylph,and actually went through
with'a flip-flap,, landing on my back. I
-attempted to throw a back summersault
through a balloon, resulting in the total
annihilation of - a confectionery .stand,
into which I dove head first; I ruth
-lessly -seized the "litt Woman" in her
tent, and: spun- her round: in a waltz
until she shrieked. I offered to permit
the "Living Skeleton" to hold me out
at arm's length, sitting on his palm. •Xy.
absurdities drew a crowd of delighted .
Spectaters, , and.when it was , suggested
to me that I should compete for the: rize,
at the foot race, fool that I was,l eagerly
_ jumped at the offer.
No Athenian athlete ever . entered the
area amid - such tumultuous aPplause as
greeted my appearance upon the course,
pßaled for the race. Talk about . the
•Greciazi games; they afforded no , such
game as I did that day. There I stood
among the other contestants, pants se
cured around the -waist with several
pairs of borrowed suspenders (my own
were insufficient to go around),shirt col
lar unbuttoned, and bald head shining
in the surrhke polishedsnuff. bladder,
ten cent. Watermelon.
'The - - crowd jeered anti 'yelled. One
advised tb lie down and . roll: around
"the Course'. Another said if. I' Couldn't
'run - around' I -lad better black my face
and try a "walk - around." I think he
was ,a minstrel.
"You' run a foot e?" said a butcher,
derisively,' taking i my size and and
flatness, with a protssional eye "there
is only one thing y u are fit to run."
"What is that?" said I.
, "Run candles!" ,
Frenzied by the insult'and the yell of
laughter which went up from the crowd,
I rushed at, my tormenter, who turned
and fied. Aa I pursued him; devasta
tion followed upon my track. I over
turned threshing - machines, got en
tangled among cultivators, upset bee
hives, crumbled patent fences like glass,
in getting over thorn, dashed through
the floral department, anild the shrieks
-of the women, os flower'pots were top
-pling to the ground, : and finally, in my
lolind frenzy, stumbled headlong into a
vat of crude petroleum.. . A huge dredg
ing Machine,. for use in our harbors,
being on the grounds, was brought into
requisition - and I 'was scooped up and
, left in the air, to dream. If I had had
any itching tobe "in oil before, that ex
' )ieriendo -satisfied me. Thus 'ended My ,
first and last foot race. Yours racily.
