ORURU RACES. The annual race meeting was held in Mr. Thomas' paddock on January 2nd. The weather looked threatening, but cleared up for a hot day. The committee did their best, but were handicapped by being short of funds, so placed the entries too high for the value of the stakes. would give greater satisfaction if they got all entries, except the Hack Race, the night before, and weights declared not later than ten o'clock next morning.
