MORE AURORA ARRIVALS AURORA, 111., April 10. Among recent arrivals at the local course was one car from Agua Caliente containing the horses of T. Sansone and C. E. Davidson. Another shipment was that of B. A. Jones and a part of the Valley Lake Stable from New Orleans. Jones unloaded eleven horses, mostly two-year-olds that are by Cloister, who has taken the place of Seth at Mr. Jones breeding farm. There are several winners among the lot. Mr. Jones was very unfortunate in having most of his colts on the shelf through sickness during the past season at New Orleans. .While being worked yesterday afternoon, the colt Passauf, by Dress Parade, broke a leg and had to be destroyed. Report has it that owner II. Goelitz, Chicago contractor, who is also the breeder, had refused an offer of 0,000 for this colt, by P. T. Chinn, but turned it down for sentimental reasons, one being that it was one of the first colts that was bred by him. . ; i t . I . I ,
