John A. Lsvoie, of the Gray Eagle stables, has made arran gcncnts by which he takes full charge of Cos PER's HAHfU.TONIAN, undoubtedly the finest horse ever imported into Ari
 Zona. This splendid animal was pur- chased at large price. bT Mr Cos per in Nebraska. when he was less than one year old. and at the age of two years he was exhibited at the Ne braska State Fair, having in the mean time, been broken ny MT. G. to drive ia a sulky, where he took the first premium as being the best two year old colt in the State. A year later he took the first premium as being tine best three year old in the State. For the past two years he has not been ex- hibited at any fair. his owner having left the State for Arizona Hamilto- nian is now five years old and is un- doubtedly the finest and best bred horse in Arizona. being yet young he will continue to develop and improve in appearance. The stock of this county will be greatly improved by an infusion Of the strong strain of blood represented by this horse. and all horscbreeders, especially those Uho desire to raise fine stock, ought to take advantage of the presence of this well bred horse. MT. Gosper deserves much credit for importing to this coun- try stock horse of such great value to horse raisers. Hamiitonian was ridden thIs season all the way from Lincoln, Neb., distance Of fifteen hundred miles. and has yet recov- cred fully from the fatigue of so long and laborious a journey. This horse belongs to a family or group of horses from which has come some of the best roadsters and fastest trotters in America. Dexter. Goldsmith Maid, Rarus and many other very fast thet- ters are of this family or breed of horses-I'Fcsc0H Miner.
