We remind our maders that the Jubilee Gyurkhaan, which unfortunately it has been found necessary to postpone several times in consequence of the heavy rain that fell feat week rendering the race and training courses littis batter than guagmiros, will be brought off on Saturday, the 10th inet, if at all posable It is only reasonable to orpect a apell of fairly fion weather after the unusually continuous, rainfall of the last fortnight, and though the racecourse is not likely to be hard it may be tolerably good ging, suloiently good to allow our bicycle champions to rag off their races. Much interest is taken by our largely inering cyclist community in these events and we hope for good fields and some spirited competitions The entries for the pony races are excellent, the abstacle and menageria contests will be sure to be interesting, and, given fair weather, we farticipate a really good day's sport wall worth
