DECEMBER 1866.

THE MORNING STAR AND TIIE SUFFOLK.-Mr. Edwards
is the owner of the former, who was steered by Mr.
Bl`Cormack, while Mr. Clarke piloted his own nag, the
Suffolk Star. They had to trot in harness one mile, for
£50,. the Suffolk Star being allowed a start of 100 yards.
Morning Star was in the best condition, and what little
;peculation took place was in favour of Mr. Edwards' nag.
On starting Morning Star gained rapidly on the Suffolk
lady, caught and passod the latter at 600 yards, was never
headed, and won by full 150 yards. The Suffolk Star
broke repeatedly; in over-reaching she cut herself badly.

it would not be surprising if they refused to disturb their

LADY DERBY V. TIME.—The con litions were for the
animal to trot eight miles in 30 minutes for £2O. Harry
Tucker tooled the Lady in such good ttyle, and at so slash-
ing a pace did the mare go, that she won with 1 min. and
57 sec. to spare. Mr. George Goodwin, of Barnet, was re-
feree for both matches.

THE "HORSE MURDER" AT CROYDON STEEPLE-

CHASES.
(From the Sporting Life.)
The Secretary of the Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals presents his compliments to the Editor
of the Sporting Life, and begs to submit for his approval
the following rules, which have been drawn up by a com-
mittee of humane gentlemen for the prevention of any fur-
ther " horrible tragedies" at Croydon or elsewhere. The
Secretary has much pleasure in stating that the proposed
rules have met with the entire approval of the Pall Mall
Gazette, and the Field, the country gentleman's newspaper!
NEW STEEPLECHASE RULES AND REGULATIONS TO BE
PROPOSED BY THE SOCIETY FOR TIIE PREVENTION
OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.

Rule I. That no eourse shall ho of greater extent than
three-quarters of a mile, and that it shall be laid out chiefly
in lawns and flower-beds.

Rule 2.—That the pace shall in no instance exceed four
miles an hour, and that any ono transgressing this rule
shall be compelled to pay
.ten guineas per annum to the
funds of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals.

Rule 3. That, in order to ensure greater safety, no more
than two horses shall start for any race, and that the
riders shall always keep at a distance of fifty yards apart.
Rule 4.—That the water-jump shall in no case be more
than a foot and a half wide, and that each bank shall be
strewn with a bed of rose-leaves four feet in depth to break
the fall.

Rule s.—That no fence shall be higher than fifteen
inches, and that every such fence shall be topped with
down pillows.

Rule G.—That no jockey shall be permitted to ride with
whip or spur ; and it is recommended that silk stockings
and pumps be worn in preference to top-boots.
Rule 7.—That no horse shall be allowed to start until he
has been regaled with a peck of oats and a pailful of water,
and if at the staff ting-post he exhibits symptoms of dis-
tress he shall be immediately placed in a padded van and
conveyed home.

Rule B.—That no race shall be run while it is raining,
and in the event of a shower of rain coming on during the
running, the jockey shall be at liberty to pull up and ask
the nearest bystander for the loan of an umbrella.
Rule 9.—That no jockey shall be qualified to ride unless
he can satisfactorily prove that he has neither wife, child,
father, mother, brother, sister, nor first cousin ; so that in
the event of bruise or a scratch he may cause distress to as
few connexions as possible. _ .

Rule 10.—That the weight of the jockey shall in no in-
stance exceed 701 b, and a preference will be given to un-
dersized workhouse boys.

Rule 11.—That if the weather be very cold, the horses
shall be clad in bearskin, in order that their own bare skin
nay not feel the effects of the atmosphere.
Rule 12.—That no grand stand shall be erected capable
of containing more than six persons, and that each of these
persons shall be provided with sal-volatile and mustard
poultices, to resuscitate them in the event of their fainting
away at the sight of a " horrible tragedy."

Rule 13.—That the refreshment booths shall bo limited
to the sale of tea and toast, peppermint drops, and cod-
liver oil ; but in extreme cases, such as rheumatism, tic-
doloreux, or St. Vitus's dance, small quantities of warm
elderberry wine or spruce will bo permitted, under certain
restrictions.

Rule 11.--That the weighing-room be provided with
sticking-plaster, ointment, raw rumpsteaks, brown paper,
and vinegar, and that Lord Aldborough's leg be requested
to attend, to show the awful effects of human eruptibility.

Rule 15.—That the duties of judge shall be filled either
by the Secretary of the Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals or the editor of the Pall Mall Gazette,
and iu the event of the latter gentleman undertaking the
post he shall be supplied with his usual allowance of milk
and water.

Rule 16.—That, in order to distress horseflesh as little
as possible, the starter shall perform his duties on a rock-

ing-horse.
Rule 17.—That the editor of tho Field shall fulfil the
duties of starter, and, as that gentleman is unused to race-
courses, that the starting shall be effected by means of a
telegraph wire laid on between the course and the edi-
torial chair. ,
Rule 18.— That during the races duly appointed officers
shall from time to time wait upon the spectators soliciting
subscriptions in aid of the Society for Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals.
Rule 19.—That in training horses on damp or foggy
mornings, each animal is to be provided with a respirator
and a silk handkerchief, and in summer regaled with
Vanilla ices and lomonadc.
Rule 20.—That any trainer, stable-lad, jockey, or groom
teasing, hitting, or speaking rudely to a steeplechaser, be
liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding penal ser-
vitude for life.
Rule 21.—That any horse falling be allowed to remain
in that position until he gets up again, when he is to be
politely asked if ho desires to kick any particular person.
