TenbrOeck as a Rabbit Hunter.

NenDroeck as a Rabbit Hunter.
Spirit of the Times.l
Last winter Mr.. Harper and his
trainer, Mr.. Colston, took up a no.
ton that Tenbroeck, and other
horses they had IN training, were
about to become burdened with
flesh. To meet this emergency
they decided to mount each horse
with a lad, and hunt rabbits. This
idea was at once put into execu-
ton, and day in and day out they
rode through fields and forests,
over hill and dale, and whenever
they came up with game the entire
field Of royal bloods darted off, like
wild horses, after the frightened
hareS. MI. Harper asserts that
Tenbroeck could outrun a rabbit.
and during the winter, over snow
and ice, through stalk fields and
meadows, over smooth and rough
ground, they pursued, with great
success, this amusing pastime and
singular sport, "bagging a bum
nance O rabbits" This is rather a
novel way of training a racehorse.
and turfmen generally may not ap-
prove Of the system, particularly at
the risk Of injuring so fine and vslu.
able an animal as the great son of
Phaeton and Fanny Holton.
COlSton and Mr.. Harper, how
ever, put the great horse to other
rather strange but exceedingly
unique, practical and useful work.
Every day he was mounted by a ne
gro boy and made to drive up the
cattle, sheep and turkeys. This
must have been very amusing to
Tenbroeck, if he did not conclude
that it was rather degrading to a
fellow whom the pablo thought
worthy to wear a crown. These
facts may, and doubtless will.
arouse a spirit of incredulity with
very many, and particularly the old
trainers and experienced turfsmen
into whose hands this may chance
to fall; and many of them will
doubtless conclude that the writer
has recently been reviewing Baron
Munchausen, Don Quixote or the
Arabian Nights, and has under
taken to eclipse those celebrated
works that stand unrivaIed for ex-
traordinary drafts upon. the imagi-
nation. Not so, gentle reader; we
send you greetings recording the
words of truth and soberness, and
we trust that you may profit by the
lessons of the Kentucky turfman
who owns the greatest living race
horse.
