Tho Springfield {Iass.) Republican Of . ro-
cont data says Tho trial of the suit OF Miller
VI. Smith, to recover damages on account Of
tho alleged tlnsoundnoss Of Nonesucl,, occupied
testimony wns OF considerable interest to tho
a,,en who own, drive, or talk horse, aud the audi
once Ind largo proportion Of those.
. :. =. Tho richest thing Of the day
pyntor was quarter owner Of Nonosuch when
Miller, tho plaintiff, paid 81, 1000 for tho Other
thgec-guartors to Smith, and lo Ind charge OF
hor for two years i; the wind.sucking or cribbing
trick mover injured hera whit, or mndoher worth
cOnt loss. Then Tom went in to explain the
1si!rros tho marc had lnado, aud told with the
utmost nonchalance how lle "threw tho race at
Prospect Park last yenr, in which ho Was hoI
driver, beoauso ho had bet on Sea- Fonna one oi
ler competitors, md couldn't afford to hayo Mono
such win tho second money, though sho could
havo douo it easily. Flo said, concerning the
purchase Of tho mare, Tint he was employed bJ
fiillor to buy her, and received roam horso fol
}tia foe. On cross-exnmination he said he dit
not tell Miller the marc was oribber, becaus,
lto supposed everybody knew it, for she was
notorious iibber and wind-suckor. Toms tall
was "tlrfy," and his unblunhing confessions o.
tho rascally way hc lost tho Long Island rae,
justified tho ordinary traditions about Jockeys
