202Herald June 19-93. RACING COWBOYS MAKING GOOD TIME. Riders Intend to Maintain the Present Rate of Speed Until They Register. O'NEILL, Neb., June 18.--The rear guard of the cowboy riders, Joe Campbell, passed through O'Neill to-day at 9 a. m., with a single horse on which he proposes to make the trip. The other seven riders made this point yesterday. Doc Middleton, Joe Gillispie and Stevens are riding in the lead together, fully six hours ahead of the rest of the boys. Men and horses are in the pink of condition and promise to finish the race in good shape. Doc Middleton states that he would register in Sioux City to-night, a distance of 130 miles, and said also that their present rate of speed, seventy miles per day, would be maintained until the Nebraska building was reached at the fair grounds. Great interest is taken in the race here and indignation is expressed at the interfetence of the humane officers, who inspect the horses at every registering point. Doc Middleton s the favorite in this section, where he has many friends, who formed his acquaintance in the early days of his career. Elmore withdrew his thoroughbred from the race to-day, his rider being sick. | 202 |
